GYMNASTS ENCOURAGED.
Columbia Team Expects Good Season
After Heating Harvard.

The victory Columbia won over Harvard
in gymnastics was extremely encouraging
to the men on Morningsde Heights. The
showing made by several Of the competitors
makes 1t look as If the Light Blue and White
would make decided impression in the
intercollegiate championship this year. To
be sure. the Harvard men are not the
best that Columbia viii be called on to
meet because the team at Cambridge.
formed for the FIRST time this season. natur-
ally Is not composed OF experienced men.
Nevertheless some Of tho wearers OF the
Crimson were decidedly good in their spc-
cialty and the comparatively easy victory
OF Columbia therefore promises well.
Capt. Benham of the Columbia team made
the best impression OF the evening. although
he did not win as many points as Woodbury.
OF Harvard. Benham took first place In the
parallel bars event. in which he was inter
collegiate champion in 1902. Ho won on
Friday evening by wide margin. scoring
nearly eighty points out OF possible ninety.
He would have been even nearer perfection
in the score had he had q greater variety OF
tricks. Most OF his third turn was tepeu-
ton OF the second. and although his c1ccu-
ton OF all three moves vas made without
break. he lost slightly because he had nothing
new TO show on his third try

acquisition to the team by his work on the
side horse and on the parallel bars. He won
the first named event by margin OF five
points. and vas six points behind Bennam

to prove himself a worthy successor to EaIie
