...Vincent Vanderpoole-Wallace, who had a particularly fine day at the GBC's, took the long jump but not before he incurred an injured leg on his first jump. He came back after that to make one more effort before retiring for the day and came up with a fine winning effort of 23'8". In Vanderpoole-Wallace's absence, freshman Huseyin Kayali took the triple jump with a Cox Cage record distance of 47'7" in what Harvard coach Bill McCurdy termed a "major surprise...
...Vincent Vanderpool-Wallace tied the Harvard long jump record last week with a jump of 23'6'" but he will receive some stiff competition this afternoon from Wilson of Princeton who has already hit 23'8".

But as Vincent Persichetti has discovered, sometimes it is one of the best things. Persichetti, 57, an established middle-of-the-road composer who teaches at Manhattan's Juilliard School, wrote a piece for narrator and orchestra to be performed by the Philadelphia Orchestra at the official Inaugural concert in Washington two weeks...
