O'Neill declares emphatically that 1t is not

no authority to fine players. He claims he told
them to eject all troublesome players, such
ejectment carrying a $40 fine with it, and to
that the fines were paid before they played

noon. ~ s. =. s.t,| . r.
A. G. Gilbert Of Yale electrified the specta-
tors by soaring over the bar in the pole vault
at the rerna rkable height OF 12 feet inches
which establishes new worlds record. Owing
to the heavy wind which aided the athletes
somewhat, and to the associations aversion to
allowing Celtic park records to go, it is possible
that Gilbert may not officially be credited with
the new figures. The former record was held
by Norman Dole of California at IL feet 32-1Oo
inches. tss
Melvin Sheppard Of Philadelphia captured the.
mile handicap from scratch, after a splendid
