Beautiful weather. a splendidly prepared
track, and a most enthusiastic crowd of sup
porters made tho annual games Of the New

As had been generally predicted, the Berkeley
Schools representatives captured the superb
silver cup by scoring the greatest number OF
points. although the boys from Cutler and Bar
nard Schools were plucky and kept the contest
in doubt until late In the afternoon.
A strong westerly wind made fast time In the
sprints impossible. but in several other events
records were smashed and equnllcd. The most
interesting performance was tho pole vault. in
which J, l.. Hulburt of Berkeley broke all pre-
vious interscholastic and scholastic records by
getting over the bar Mt 10 feet a inches. Then,
too, In the hammer event G. Il. irwin Martin Of
Berkeley equullcd the best scholastic record
with n throw Of 1873 feet 8 inches. w. =. Tur-
ner OF Cutler established new interscholustic
figures for the mile run, and came within | rs
seconds OF equalling Hifle's remarkable scho-
lastic record. u. G.. Harris. also OF Cutler, broke
the scholastic record for tho 220-yard hurdles
by two-hfths Of n second.
The schoolhoys were ont In force, and from
the tops OF tally hos and drngs and from choice
seats in the grand stand they cheered on their
respective representatives until they were In
need of cough drops. The Berkeley delegation
had their famous parrot on hand as a mascot,
and the bird became 80 worked up that he
finally broke away from his inoorings and flew
across the field, only to be captured by a copper.
who grabbed him by tho neck. When 1t was an
