AS the Americans were so successful
some of the bad feeling disappeared
but they might have more seconds
and thirds if the change had not been
made at the last minute and scarcely
without warning.
The number OF spectators was much
| larger than Saturdays attendance. and
the presence of a regimental band en-
! livened the occasion. Again the grand
stand was largely occupied by Ameri-
cans, who cheered their champions
/ with much vim, especially when George
w Orton, of the University of Pennsyl-
vania, after seeming to be out of the
long steeplechase. made a magnificent
squirt, beating an Englishman who
looked a certain winner as they came
down the stretch. The enthusiasm at
this point was immense.
The first heat in the 60 metres fiat
went handily to Kraenzlein with e.
! j. Minahan. of Georgetown university,
second, and Pritchard, of the English
team, third. Time, Z seconds. Kiln
gelhoefer, French, and Westeragen,
! Swede, also ran.

Craeken, University of Pennsylvania,
and Robert Garrett, of Princeton uni
versity, refused to compete on Sunday
| Crettier Hungarian, and Paraskevopo-
ulos, Greek. took their places. Neither
of these could outstrip the puts made
Saturday by McCracken and Garrett,
and the final resulted with Sheldon
first, at IA metres and 10 centimetres,

and 81 centimetres.

Georgetown, and Schulz, Dane. Long
finished one yard in advance of Hol-
land, Schulz being Is yards to the rear.
