LEoE SHOT PUT RECORD.
held on Reid Field yesterday after
noon the Earlham college athletes tri-
umphcd over the De Pauw. contestants
by the score OF 81 to SO. The meet
was almost free from features. In
the field events the Quakers had ev-
erything their own way The shot
put record OF the college, formerly
held by Arthur Trester. was broken
by Levi Pennington. This was the
only record which was exceeded. Pen
nington came within a few inches OF
breaking the college record for the dis
Gus hurl, but failed in his hardest ef-
forts.
De Pauw showed up well in the
runs, but in the weight events was
woefully weak. In the sprints the
QuAkers had the best men and the
only field event in which the Metho-
dists had chance was the high jump.
Earlham had no trouble In taking the
hammer throw for all the points. But
the exhibition in this event was poor.
Pennington had been doing only medi-
OGRE work in practice and Swain had
been showing up we'll. In yesterdays
trials however. Pennington came
through for first place with = throw
much less than Swain has made.
Heat I Fast One.
In the first event. the 100 yard
dash. to many 1t looked as II Conrad
and Fribley ran dead heat. The
judges decided the Earlhain man was q
few inches in the lead. Conrad won
the race in the last three steps. Frib-
ley leaned forward. but the judges de-
clared he was beaten. The time,
10 as seconds. was but fair. The
track was not in very good conditions.
sommerville ran q splendid race In
the mile. He started out with q ter
rifle pace and kept 1t for an eighth OF
I mile. ny the time no had covered
100 yards his competitors were TRAIL
Ing him in single file. He retained
the pace and finished with case 80 feet
ahead Of Furnas,- the Earlham. crack.
Again in the halt mile, Bonneville
started off at this high speed and re-
manned In the lead to the finish Cou-
rad made one OF the pretticst finishes
OF the meet in the TO yard dash.
Fribley looked to have 1t won. but the
Earlhamite gained rapidly and in the
last ten feet passed Fribley and won
by 2 foot. Fribley seemed to quit
when he heard Conrad overtaking him.
Brown duplicated Conrad's stunt in
the go ward hurdle. White was lead
ing on the finish well ahead. Schlada-
man was running second and took the
last hurdle well in advance Of Brown.
The latter overlook him In the finish
and was leading by three fest at the
