AMERICAN CoLLEGIANs WON.
Harvard and Yale MakeSSix Points to
Three for OxfOrd-Cnmbridge.


The athletes of Yale and Harvard met
the athletic representatives of Oxford and
Cambridge universities yesterday at Berke-
ley Oval, New York, in track and field
events and the American colegians proved
too much for the visitors The Americans
won six out of the nine events. Points
were counted for wins only, so that the
Harvard and Yale men defeated their En-
glish opponents by a score of points TO 3.
Weather conditions were just right. Har-
ward and Yale each won three events. OK
ford failed to gain a point for the English
men.
The greatest race and closest contest was
the 120-yard hurdle. GARNER of Oxford
and Converse of Harvard had the issue
between themselves. Up to the eighth hur-
die they were abreast. several yards IN
front of Alcock of Cambridge and Clapp
of Yale Over the last hurdle Converse
gained a couple of inches and, as he threw
his hands up at the tape. he was barely
six inches in front of GARNER, the time be-
ing ID So
Hargrave of Yale made a superhuman
effort toward the finish of the 100-yard
run, which he won in 10 %. Haigh Of
Harvard, who was on the inside, led for
nearly fifty yards. when he was passed by
Hind of Cambridge. Hargraye, with
wonderful spurt won out by about yard.
In the half-mile run Franchot of Yale
the toss for pole position. but as
Workman of Cambridge wished to try for
a record the Yale man conceded the posi-
ton. Workman was unable to break the
record of 1.53 2-5 established by c. H Kill
patrick six years ago in the international
games at Manhattan. Workman won hand
ily with Cleave of Oxford second, IN
1.55 3-5.
Rust of Harvard won the quarter-mile
run in fifty seconds, with Boardman of
Yale his closest attendant, neither Of the
Englshmen being able to get even terms
with the flying leaders at any stage Of the
game.
In the one-nlile run the Americans never
had a ghost of show, as Cockshott, Cam
bridge, won easily, while Gregson his club
mate. finished five yards in front OF
Knowles of Harvard.
In the two-mile run Workman won by
forty yards.

WILL TAKE PLACE AT NIGHT.
in Arrangements for the
Motor Cycle Races.


The races at the Coliseum Friday will
be held at $50 O'Clock in the evening in
stead of 4:30, as previously announced. The
change was announced late yesterday af-
ternoon by Manager Will c. Bryan and an
excellent card of events has been arranged
for that occasion. The greatest of motor
races is scheduled to take place and the
four fastest teams in America have been
engaged for the different heats
The motor races will consist of three
heats of five miles each and final of ten
miles The time in each of the events is
expected to be reccrd-breaking. The en-
tries include Johnny Nelson's famous 'Yel-
low Boy" with the same team which was
pacing him when he met with his fatal
accident in New York: the Baltimore Roy
al Blue" which has won several like events
iii this city and Baltimore; Archie Nc
Eachern's lightning machine, and VIII St1n-
sons pacing outfit.
The races have always proved to be most
thrilling and full Of excitement from start
to finish. and the manner in which the
two men on machine manipulate 1t when
going at 1 80 clip is remarkable. Then,
again, the machines, when they ascend the
steep turns give the appearance of topping
over on each other when running neck-and-
neck in races of this character. They never
fail to create a sensation, and by the time
the spectators realize the terrific speed at
which the machines are travelling the races
are about finished.
The fve-mile open which is planned for
tomorrow night at the local track for the
amateurs of the District, promises to De an
interesting event. and a large list OF en-
tries is probable. The riders will all go
after the N. G.. A. medal, which has been
offered for the fastest time for this dis
tance.

MICHAEL IN GREAT FORM.
Defeats Mcfarland In Straight Heat
In MOtOr-Paced Race.


What Jimmy Michael does not know
about the motor-paced racing game could
be told in a small pocket edition. He dem
onstrated this last night at Madison Square
Garden, New York, by defeating Floyd Nc
Farland In two straight heats.
When the first heat was started McF'ar-
lands motor shot out in front, and It's
long climbed follower held SO closely to the
pacing machine that Michael appeared to
be In quandary for while as to how he
would pass ahead.
Michael got abreast of Mcfarland in the
third mile and by fast work passed him in
the fourth mile, taking the first heat by q
lap.
In the second heat the Californian was
given the pole and the lead on the rolling
start. Michael appeared disgusted and on
ly followed behind Mcfarland for three
miles, When the wonderful little Welsh-
man sailed out to take the lead Mcfarland
began to go wide, and Michael was several
times forced to slow down.
By feinting at dashing ahead Jimmy got
Mcfarland riding very wide, and then
made superb rush that caused McFar-
land to lose his pace In reality. When he
got 1t again the doughty Welsh cycle racer
was ahead. He held the position to the fin-
ish.
AS for Mcfarland. he rode q great race.
At times he was given to too much jockey
ing, but he rode a whirlwind finish which
made Michael do his best.
