Since then the team has shown steady improvement in both fielding and batting. The defeat at the hands of Pennsylvania by score of 8-7 on April 29, however, proved costly, for Captain Vaughn sustained a strained tendon and has just returned to his position again. The next game, with Holy Cross on May 3, was won by Yale 4-2, the fielding of the victorious team being particularly brilliant. On May 5 Yale won again, defeating Georgetown 4-1 in a well-played game. This winning streak was broken up by Virginia, which, on May 6, overwhelmed the Yale...
...Yale and the University of Pennsylvania tied for next place with 10. The day was featured by Bailey, of Maine, setting a new mark of 165 feet at the hammer-throw, and by the withdrawal of Roos, of Yale, in the shot-put. Lippincott of Pennsylvania has pulled a tendon. J. B. Camp '15 was unable to enter competition, but W. W. Kent '16, although in poor condition, will start in the mile tomorrow...
California and Dartmouth furnished the other surprises. If Stanton of California had not pulled a tendon in the semi-finals of the 100-yard dash, he would have scored heavily in both dashes and would probably have brought California's total above that of Dartmouth and Yale. Dartmouth, through Braun, who earned nine points in the two hurdle races, Whitney who finished second in the shot-put, Buck who landed in a tripple tie for first in the pole-vault, and Nordell who took the broad jump, finished fourth in the ranking...
Another track accident has followed the pulled tendon of B. Z. Nelson '15. W. W. Kent '16, who broke the Freshman dual record for the mile in the Yale 1916 meet last spring, has developed a bad ankle which will probably keep him out of the Cornell meet. It is not known whether the injury is a sprain or a broken bone...
...Nelson '15, one of the best sprinters on the University track squad, pulled a tendon yesterday afternoon which may keep him out for the rest of the year, and will certainly prevent his entering the Cornell meet on Saturday. His absence will be a serious loss to the team, which is already weak in the sprints...
