...shot-put and 35-pound weight events will be held at the Briggs Cage, Saturday afternoon. All the other contests will be fought out at the Garden.

All that the Yale-Harvards could do was win the three-mile run, the shot-put, broad jump and pole vault. Two Cantabs out-leaped Wolf and Larsen of Yale in the high jump. Since only first places counted, the meet score finally stood Oxford-Cambridge 7, Yale-Harvard 5; a victory of stamina over statistics...
