IAHY INTERESTING CONTESTS. The Indoor Games of the Yale Ash. letic Association . Big success-I Handicap Men Win Most Of che Events, Hut Several Now men show Up-Wiliam Hunter Of This City Wins the nIile Hun From Day of New Jersey.
 As usual, the results of the indoor games # tho Y. A. A., which were held in the 'rmory last evening, were full of surprises tor both contestants and spectators. There were about seven or"eight hundred of the latter present. mostly students, although there were few ladies in the south gal lery. About one-quarter as many contest ants entered and most of them competed, 90 the events were full of trial heats by the dozen. The ffty-yard dash had 50 many entries that it took ten trial heats to | get 1t started and half as many more be- | fore 1t was finished. Even the 600-y yard l run required four heats, which made hard | work for the runners. Yet in spite of all l the entries the sports were finished by l 10:30, an unprecedented event, owing to the rapid manner in which the heats were run of. The officials in charge of the games were as follows: .
 Referee, O. H. shsrrill, .jr:, 's9. Judges, W. B. Wright, jr.. F. 8. Butter worth, '95, F. A. Hinkey, '95. Wrestling Referee. J. E. Heaton; judges, J. Graham, F. G. Crabb.

Hoakley. putting of the 16 pound shot, which was won by Hickok, the Yale giant, with put was announced there was great applause, for 1t broke the intercollegiate record made by Hickok himself last spring by foot 5 2 inches. It was no surprise to the trainers, for Q short time ago Hickok tossed the ball within an inch of 43 feet ct the gymnasium. There is but little doubt that he will touch the worlds record be- fore he gets through Yale, and he has a brother coming next year, who is said to be fully powerful ss he.
 The pole vault was pretty event, and the highest actual vault was tie between Rice of Yale and Bowman of Columbis, who cleared ten feet each, although neither got place. The handicap men had things pretty much their own way all the. evening, except in the long runs. About the most interesting event was the mile run, in which ssversl good men started, with Will. lie Day, the New Jersey crack, at scratch. At first the handicap men were all in a bunch, but when about halt mile had been run Day came out of the crowd with William Hunter of this city at h!s heels. Hunter and Day have met ssv- eral times before and have always made 6 good race, 50 great excitement was aroused. The handicap men soon dropped behind, and it was evident that the race was be- tween these two men alone Lap after lap Hunter stuck to Days heels, with the New Haven contingent yelling themselves hoarse, until within half a lsp of the finish,
 when the New Haven man spurted and Day dropped back beaten into third place. The 800 yard run was won by little Dad
 nun of ths Worcester A. O., who carried off the cup last year. He was at scratch, but in both the trials and fnals passed his field in the first half of the race, winning in trot. He Is . little bit of fellow, athlete. He makes his big gains on the turns, and the smaller and poorer the track, the surer he is to win.
 The 50yard hurdle was 8 surprise, being taken by Van Ineen, @ Yale freshman, from big field of good men. Van Ingen l is a brother of McLans Van Ingen, who won both the hurdles last year in the Mott Haven games. The 50-yard dash, in spite of its numerous entries, was not interest ing, the men with big handicaps having things too easy.
