Bridgeton pioneer. (Bridgeton, N.J.) 1884-1919, 1903-06-04

A., fourth The second men all start
ed OIL at fast clip. Cox had given
the second man for Institute a fine
lead and he kept it; B. A. A. again
finished second, w. J. A., third and
y. A. A., fourth. In the third relay
Institute finished first, the Academy
second, B. A. A. third and O. A. A,
fourth. In the fourth relay thew
stood the same, except that Shoe
maker of the Academy gained few
yards on the first man. On the last
lap MCGUIRE, of the Institute, started
with a ten yard lead on Sheppard
from the West Jersey Academy.
Sheppard ran the best race ever seen
IN this city. Inch by inch he gained
on the fast Institute man and with
only forty more yards to go he was
but a few feet behind when they
crossed.the line. 1t was neck and neck,
but Institute were the victors and
they will receive the handsome gold
medals. Many people who have at
tended the meets at Franklyn Field
say they never saw prettier race
than that run by Sheppard Saturday.
B. A. A. finished third; @. A. A.,
fourth.
After this came the tug of war be-
tween the Ferracute champion team
and the Bridgeton Athletic Associa-
tion. The Ferracute team gradually
but surely pulled the big men from
the Athletic Association to the stake.
Will Miller was post for the Athletic
Association and William Archer for
Ferracute. The pull was for an oys-
ter supper. The Ferracute men are
now waiting for it.
