About the 44o Yard Dash.
No agreement has been reached as
to the disposition of the loving cup.
Biggsville was willing to toss for it
but Moline would rather the cup re-
NAMED over for the meet next year
to be given for some special feature.
The finish OF the meet was ex-
ceptionally close and there was con-
siderable dispute at the finish. The
last event on the card was the 440-
yard dash. 1t was the agreement
that only the first two men should be
timed in the two heats and COM
parision made and the men awarded
places in accordance to the time
made. Kelley of Biggsville was en-
tered in the first heat and finished
third. The time for the first man was
56:02, and the second man 81. KEEL
ley was not more than<a few feet be-
hind the second man, but his time
was not taken although he ran the
race in under So. The second heat
contained number Of exceptionally
slow runners. The winning man
crossed the finish line in 61:02, which
was slower than the time Kelley
made had his race been timed The
Judge, H. e. Radcliffe awarded third
place to Biggsville which gave that
team tie for first place with Mo-
line. 1t is expected that some
agreement will be reached today.
