...third event was for first school fours. Here again Browne and Nichols carried off the prize, the "Harvard Challenge Cup", but this time her margin of victory was a scant two feet. Rindge Tech was barely nosed out at the finish by B. and N. while the Noble and Greenough, Cambridge Latin, and Tabor Academy fours trailed in that order...
...quartet of hurdlers who should take two out of the three places in both events. Whitney, who is still suffering from an injury received in the Navy meet, may possibly be unable to compete on Saturday. In the case Hauers should take first with Thayer battling Captain Chittick of Tech for second place. Fitts should capture the low hurdles with Thayer, Hauers, and Chittick again fighting for second; the last named being the ruling favorite. If Whitney is in condition to run, he should win the high, while last year's order of Fitts, Chittick, and Whitney may well...
...both the broad and high jumps. In the high-jump he is a consistent performer at 5 feet 9 inches and has done higher. In addition to Fitts, Coach Farrell will pin his faith to Morse, capable but erratic, who has done 5 feet 10 inches. Merrill is Tech's best man here with Greenough and Stanley having only bare possibilities of scoring. In the broad-jump too, Fitts is a likely point- winner but except for him this event presents a large field of mediocre ability. Dipple, Prescott, and Heap of Tech, and Thayer, Wansker, and Merrill...
...meet with a vault of 11 feet 6 inches. Reidy, moreover, has cleared 11 feet and may possibly give Sheldon or Gratwick a hard struggle. In the shot-put, too, Captain Brown, Clark, and Saxton form a trio that appear, from results this spring, to surpass Blatter and Dexter, Tech's best entries, so the University may score a clean sweep in this event. Brown should win the hammer-throw too, although his frequent foul throws may spoil his chances, as they did in the Pennsylvania Relay Carnival. Marshall ought to get second with Osborn, Tonon, and Dexter...
...University is not as strong in the two new events; the javelin and discus throws; as early season results predicted, so it is doubtful if the Crimson athletes will equal Tech's score here. Carpenter may take first with the discus, but the Engineers with Mimick and Boli are pretty sure of two places. Finally, in the javelin Tonon of Tech is expected, by many who have watched him in action, to win the event, Greenidge of the University is ruling favorite for second, while the third place is more or less of a toss-up between Kernan...
