220 YARDS DASH.


Fast time was looked for in this
event, for Rice of the High School. was
credited with a remarkably speedy
workout. The courses were measured
SO as to be fundamentally correct. the
outside mans start being about ten
feet ahead of the mark for the inside
runner, this to offset the additional
ground to be covered at the turns. The
competitors, however, elected to start
even. Rice drew the outer berth and
sprinted home ahead of Lyman and
MeCandless in % rs seconds, equaliRg
the island record. Had he run his
proper distance his time would have
put the existing figures completely in
the shade. ttHs .,a Z

the Kams in this event, and the blue
