over into the arms OF one of his college

The 1900 people. dyed-in-the-wool ath-
letic enthusiasts, were surprised that
the meeting was held under the existent
conditions. But the constitution of the
intercollegiate association says the
games must be held on certain date
in May. and such a little inconvenience
as rainy weather cannot change its
constitution. As soon a Referee Sulli-
van announced that he would start the
races If only two man appeared on the
track it had a salutary effect, and there
were but few Withdrawals.

running easily on the second lap from

officials knocked the bell down just as
Dull was passing. The sturdy little
Michigan runner thought il the bell lap.
On the side OF the track next TO the

made a remarkable squirt and left the
field OF runners behind. He and Rowe
reached the tape fully fifteen yards

But they were both run out There was

not equal TO the effort.

HOW IT HAPPENED.
Official Theory Of the Wright Ac.
cident.

At the official investigation of the aero
plane accident made at Fort Myer yester-
day by the Signal Corps board what is
believed to be the correct theory as to the
cause of the accident was brought out.
Lieut. Sweet of the navy, who assisted
the board at the inquiry, in speaking of
the accident gave the following version,
which is believed to be the general belief
Of the entire board:
Through the numerous long flights
made by Wright at Fort Myer there de-
veloped an exceptional strain on one of
the brackets on the upper strut of the
rudder to which a guy wire was attached.
1t is quite possible that the continued
strain and vibration wore out the bracket
when the bracket broke the guy wire
dropped and became entangled in the left
propeller breaking one of the blades.
THE breaking of the wire caused the
rudder or tailpiece to collapse. This it is
believed, struck against the left propeller.
This strain on the tailplece broke the
lower strut and probably allowed the yoke
wires to catch In the propeller. thus
throwing the control lever to an extreme
position.
''The wing tip control lever. being held in
the same hand by the operator as the
rudder lever was held. it is believed. was
also thrown to the extreme position. This
would cause the planes to be so twisted
as to give the machine a sharp turn to
the left with a tendency to become YER
teal. thereby decreasing the support and
making further control of the aeroplane
impossible.
THE accident does not reflect any dis

A miniature race riot occurred in Ana

Of 12S Good Hope road. became involved

Of Tenly's. went to the latter's rescue.
Lanham blew his police whistle for
assistance. A large crowd assembled and
there were many threats against the COL

injunction dissolved, not on the ground
that the attorney general was wrong in
his procedure. but on the ground that the
attorney general. being an officer of the
