Dual Meet at New Haven With
Harvard Won by the
Latter.

NEW HAVEN, Conn.,, May 1S.-Much
glory came to Yale athletes this afternoon
to compensate for the loss to Harvard of
the fifteenth annual dual games which were
held on Yale Field, the final results in
which were ssh points for the crimson to
1871 for the blue. w. r. Dray, the little
vaulter, who next year probably Will be
Yales athletic team captain, broke the
worlds record made about three years ago
by Samse Of the University Of Illinois by
clearing the bar at IL feet 81 inches, Of
fetal measurement, while Capt. ]. w. Mar
shall Of the team broke the dual record
OF feet " inches. made in the high jump
by G. r. Freary of Harvard, some eleven
years ago, by clearing the bar at 6 feet IA
inches after he had beaten all his oppo-
nents in the event.
For Harvard the games brought some
disappointment, for their winning margin
was expected to be little larger, and
Capt william Minot was beaten out in the
mile event simply through overconfdence
in starting to sprint on the last lap, Which
served only to set the pace for Splitter OF
Yale, who bid fair to overtake MADDEN OF
Harvard. the winner Of the event, had there
been a few more yards to go.
Points Well Distributed.
The men of both universities did finely,
tically where they belonged, for only in the
broad jump did an entire event go one way,
and in this three Yale men had an easy
time. The sprints and the hurdles were
fought out to the finish, and while Rand of
Harvard won both the hurdle events nd
Dodge and Lockwood Of Harvard the two
sprints, they had to show fast heels to
shake of the Yale men who had Quahned
in the trials.
An Exciting Finish.
The 44O-yard run was distinguished by
the plucky fighting of Colohan of Yale, who
had held back until the tape was In sight.
Then he forced out Young and onativia of
Harvard, beating out both in finish which
sent shower of hats into the air and
made the spectators cheer with delight.
Then came the half mile run to give an
other moment of heart-breaking anxiety.
for Tilson of Yale alone was forcing Van
Brunt and Whicher of Harvard to extend
themselves, and as the men came around
the last turn Tiison took the lead. spr.nted
and won. Following are the summaries:
