/ the performances of Lig, tbody indoors
! and outdoors since. he was in unfort unately
bad condition on the date of the Pastime
| meet.
In the two-mile event in the proposed
intersectional meet there would be more
than little difficulty in choosing winner
| The East has Hail Of Yale and the West
Rowe Of Michigan. Both are men who
! can do close to 0minutes rs seconds although
/ they did not run so fast in the intercollegiate
games. Whatever advantage of time per-
| Torrance there may be rests with Rowe
! who did 8 minutes 80 seconds, while
| Hail was three-ffths of a second slower
On the other hand, Rowe and two other
men, Stone and Lyon, made staggering
| finish of it, all being together five yards from
| home. Rowe, according to reliable report
was all out to win by yard, with the other
two men so close up that a three yard blanket
would have done the proverbal trick
Hail won his race by long sustained sprint
going out after Willgoose of Cornell when
| the latter tried to make a runaway Of things
at the start of the final lap. Presumably
| Hail is the stronger man. His perform
ances in the intercollegiate cross country
meet, where he has twice finished in third
place, stamp him rs n sturdy runner and
the recent two mile race shows his speed.
1t would he a close thing, and were the meet
otherwise so close as to need it, the East
would bc allowed the point AS it is, 1t
would he better simply to divide.
The East has a right to the high hu rclle
event, in whish Amsler in his present form
has every right to defeat Catln of Chicago.
Il of ha ~
in the Pennsylvania relay games. Amsler
won in the intercollegiates in 5 3-5 seconds,
which is one of the classiest hurdle racing
performances of recent times. 1t shows
him to be a worthy successor of his college
mate kraen2lein. He won from Cas- e-
man 10y "A fair margin and might do a fifth
of a second better under the whip. In the
low hurdles, too, the East might well eN-
poet to win from the West. Garrells, the
weight throwing phenomenon who also Is
a hurdler, won his event in rs la seconds,
after good fight with Catlin Of Chicago.
Frank Castleman of Colgate the national
IoO-yard hurdle champion, proved to be the
best man in this years intercollegiate meet
ing in the East, and produced the good time
of 81 As seconds in the event That should
be good enough to win for him.
Thus in the track events the Fast Is CON
sdered entitled to the 100 yard dash
the quarter and half mile and the two hur.
dies. The Westerners have the 22o yard
run and the ono nile while the points are
split in the two miles The result for the
eight events would then be '"S'' ga "''''
The field events are likely to prove even
more unfortunate for the WeSterners. First,
the vault of Dray Of Yale, who made
II feet lO'.! inches in try FOR the record,
is lust enough over the II feet o.. in hes
Of Glover Of Indiana and Sam-e of Iii
nois, who tied for first. to give the East
the preference. There is another thing TO
be considered. Dray won the vault in the
Eastern meet at II feet inches. In trying
for the record he had the har put up to the
next hel ght and cleared it at the first trial.
The Weetorncr-, whotiod nj the lesser height,
undoubtedly had At ens. six trials to clear
il. Therefore they are decidedly less able
vaulter@ than Dray under the evidence Of
the rules Of comp tit on.
In the broad Jump SvmondS of Prince
ton won with a leap of % feet 81, inches.
His Western opponent did 90 feet 81 inches,
which not only won hut broke the Confer
ence record 10y nearly inches. The stand
ard of broad Jumping in the West is not rs
high a. in the Fast. In the high Jump Mar
snail of Yale won with !eap OF feet. The
We-,errer- best was 8 feet 10. inches.
