Each of these five fellows brought back a splendid silver cup, and one went so far as to capture two making six cups in all for Bridgeport.
 The first Bridgeporter to score was Eedworth, who won his heat in the 100 yard dash in fine style, but owing to a poor start failed to get better than a good fourth in the finals. Wilson, in the half mile novice, ran a pretty race but set too fast a pace. at times lead ing the bunch by forty yards, and pc tered out on the last lap, finishing back in the crowd. Capt. Kelley fail ed to get a place in the mile run han dicap, although he had a handicap of seventy-fve yards He ran a good race. however beating out the well known Eddie Carr of the Xavier Attn letic Club. Mcclellan and Guion were entered in the half mile handicap. but failed to get better than an "also ran" place
 Bridgeport got her first chance to ' run off. The local association had three entries in this race. Bob Ander- son. Joe Conmette. and Jerome Ben nett. Tn the first heat Joe Commette qualified for the finas by winning third place. In the next heat Bennett du- plicated his team mates feat. captur- ing third place.

Com mette was put out of the running at the far turn. when he stumbled over one of the many Instructions on the track. Bennett was presented with a very handsome silver cup for his per fornance.

Frank Rogers was entered in the pole vault, but was not allowed to compete, as he did not bring pole. Had Rog- CTS been permitted to compete in this event, Bridgeport would have won the point trophy, as Frank has done much better than was done by the men at RotOn Point on Monday. and the five points for first place would have plac- ed Bridgeport ahead of the Mohawk Athletic Club of New York who took home the much coveted prize

High School of Commerce, Mohawk Athletic Club, Preparatory School of New York. and others of equal calibre. The relay team was composed of Bob Anderson, Herbert Guion, Joseph Commette. and F. Jerome Bennett, who ran in the or der named. Anderson ran pretty quarter, giving a good lead to Guion, who lost it. as he is not really a quar- ter miller, his speciality being the half. Committee running third ran splen- didly, and worked up to second place, which was. held to the tape by Ben nett who ran last The winner was the Preparatory School of New York second Bridgeport Y NJ C. A. third e. C.. of New York fourth Mohawk Athletic Club. This race came after the deluge and was run through ponds of water, and the runners who were not amphibious were somewhat handi- capped.
