Another Harvard graduate. Mike Hauk will run in the 220-yard dash for the English, but it is unlikely that he can defeat Crimson sophomore Bill Jewett, much less Eli Mark Young. The last time Hauk performed with any consistency was in the 1965 Heptagonals, which...
Harvard varsity trackmen should provide another four first-places for the Americans. Captain Wayne Andersen, the only returning winner from the meet here two years ago, should leave Hauk in the dust in the 100-yard dash.

In fact, in the past, the destruction of another person's ancestral grave-yard was a capital crime...
