GOOD SPORT.
First Athletic fleet of the West RAN
dolph High School Association

Held at Manchester's Park last Saturday
was success. The day was an ideal one,
conducive to good time and to the atten.
dance OF a fair-sized crowd. There were
about 259 people on the grounds.
All the events We're well contested. Only
two classes won any points In any of the
contests, 80 ana '96, the former winning
by rs points to the latter's 90 points. The
first man receives 8 points, the second
three points, and the third, one point ia
the scale Of reckoning points made by
each in an event.
A bicycle race between Kibbee and Mac
Donald OF East Randolph and members o
the association was quite an interesting
event, kibbee taking the first, second and
fourth heats, and +. c. Smith the third
heat; time Of the heats, :51 2 :54, 2 .52 2 54.
Many thought after Smith took the third
heat easily, by squirting home, that be
had the race; but when be came onto the
home stretch in the fourth heat, while
squirting and ahead of the field, the band
that held his foot TO the pedal broke ,caus-
ing him to lose his pedal and the race. The
race WAS q pretty event TO watch, but for
one thing: Macdonald seemed to be in
the race only to pace Kibbee, but after the
judges had seen this work long enough, he
was called down. IL would be well for
Macdonald to study L. A. w. rules aud
see where he will be il be persists in keep
ing up the tactics he used in the race.
There was no noteworthy feature in any
event, unless the pole vaulting of r. ".
Connolly, who made S It, / in, and the
throwing OF the hammer by A. b. Hebard,
who had never tried it until that after
noon, when he made % It. S in.
Some OF the team were not in practice,
but with good training next spring they
can send down good team to try for
positions in the lnterscholastic Meet at
Dartmouth next June.
