CORNELL ATHLETES
DEFEAT PRINCETON
Excellent Showing Made by
the Men From Ithaca-Cook
Makes Long Jump.

PRINCETON, n. j.. May 18.-The Cor
nell track and field team today defeated
Princeton by the wide margin of SD points
to 81. The ease with which Cornell won
was not surprise to the followers OF
Princeton athletics, as the local track
team was unable to enter several star
men owing to injuries and ineligibilities.
Cornell brought thirty-five men to Prince
ton, while Princeton could enter only half
as many From the excellent showing
which was made by the Ithaca team how
ever. 1t is doubtful whether the Prince
ton team could have won even with the
services of Whitley. D. NJ. Smith. Moore
and Mccormick, all flrst-class men who
were unable to- compete.
The best performance from an athletic
viewpoint was in the broad jump, In
which T. T. Cook Of Cornell made a jump
of 23 feet IL inch. The 44O--yard
run brought surprise in the poor
showing Of Capt Atlee of Princeton, who
led until the last sixty yards. when both
Carpenter and Hitchcock of Cornell pass
ed him. The time was only 80 % sec
onds, whereas Atlee covered the distance
in the Yale-Princeton dual meet week
ago in 40 40 seconds.
Gamble, In both the 100 and 300 yard
dashes: McFayden. in the shot-put. and
Vein in the pole-vault were the only men
to score first places for Princeton.
The only close finishes Of the day were
in the sprints. the Ithaca boys taking
the distance runs and most of the field
events with considerable ease. Sum-
