Harvard made short work of the Yale field delegation, cornering 52 out of a possible 62 points. Vincent Vanderpool-Wallace dominated the Crimson attack, taking first in the long jump and just missing the Harvard home field record in winning the triple jump. These two stellar feats netted him "Outstanding Player of the Yale-Harvard Meet," an award given annually to the most valuable trackman of either team...

With no triple jumpers beyond the 47-ft. range, and long jumpers mired at 22 ft., Vincent Vanderpool-Wallace should not have too much to worry about. Crimson high jumpers Mel Embree (7 ft. 1 1/4 in.) and John McCulloh (6 ft. 10 in.) do not have much to fear from the Yale jumping squad, either...
...McCulloh and Kleigar weren't the only thinclads to rack up honors against a surprisingly strong Princeton team. Vincent Vanderpool-Wallace as usual didn't let anybody down, taking top laurels in both the long and triple jumps. The consistent VPW leaped 23 ft., 11 3/4 in. in the long jump, and 48 ft., 1 1/4 in. in the triple event...

The Tigers' pole vault and high jumping units do not boast of anything above 15 ft. and 6 ft. 7 in., so neither Blayne Heckel or Mel Embree has much to fear...
