The Quakers Take Field Day
Honors From Des Moines.

The Penn track team made a fine
showing against the athletes of Des
Moines College, at the fair grounds
Friday afternoon, the score resulting
| 96 to 4s in favor of Penn. The meet
was called for 1880 but the start was
considerably hindered by Bowen,
PENIS 100 yd bicycle man, who was
unavoidably detained. The first event
was started about 2:15 and the Penn
boys gained steadily from the very
first. Jackley, Des Moines' crack
man, did some fine work but the 9TH
er members of the team were in no
way equal to the Penn athletes and
showed a woeful lack of training.
Jackley won nearly all the points for
Des Moines, with the exception of the
pole vault which Garner, of Des
Moines, won at 9 it and 2 in. White,
of Penn and Latimer, of Des Moines,
tied for second and in settling the tie
White cleared 1T 8 in, really beating
the head mark. However, as it was
OIllJ a tlC OuI OCNWCCh INC lWO hCu,
he was given only second place.

the weather and did not go in the
mile bicycle. Livingston, however,
went in alone and won frst place, 20
yards ahead of the others.
Jackley, of Des Moines, won the
broad jump without any effort, reach
ing 20 1T and 10 in at the second trial.
The 22O yd dash and hop, step and
Jump also fell in his way.
White and Caldwell tied for first on
the high Jump at 8 fit 7 in. Jackley,
of Des Moines, winning third at 5 it
5 in. Penn has the best men in the
state in this event and their work can
always be depended on.
Holiday won the quarter easily,
Latimer and Garner, of Des Moines,
getting 2 and 8, respectively.
The hammer throw was won by
PENIS heavy man, Lewis, with Car
ter a close second and a result of the
shot put was almost the same.

though it were a SO yard dash.

over so yards, the Des Moines men
being behind from the start. Lewis
led off for Penn and Bowen finished,
making a record of1:39 2-5 or an W
age Of "a 4 5 per man, The time of all
the races was somewhat slow on ac3
count of the stiff breeze, but with
more favorable weather and nor
competition it is thought the record
can be lowered to at least 6:37.
Wheeler's work as trainer shows
for itself. He lie the best mar Penn
ever had and shows that he under
stands the business.
