well that the sharps predicted victory for Har-
ward in the finals this afternoon Harvard men
qualified in nearly every event, while the per-
formance of several of Yale's representatives was
distinctly below expectation. Yale's chances were
seriously affected by the absence of Boardman who
expected to win the quarter mile, and Captain

strong showing, also did the representatives of
the University of Michigan, who qualified In
eral events.

voted merely to wedding the inferior per-
formers, the attendance very small, and there

tion appeared in the person of Arthur Duffy of

held by Bernard J. Wefers, of the in
stituton. Three watches caught the time identi-
cally and Duffy has been timed in 9 As seconds
