mile and half Such a performance
alone would be enough to entitle him
to place in the Hall of Fame.

and fairly raced away with the half
mile, beating the record of l SIS made
by Parsons of Yale in 1904 bv liz

Ills wonderful running gave Cornell
the meet, for he took points where
Penn had been conceded them.

Michigan wonder in the sprints. he is
doing work almost as wonderful as
Jones. He was an easv winner in
both dashes, equaling Wefer's time of
40 IN the century, a time that has
never been touched since 1896, and
then he easily equailed his own record
OF last year in the furlong.
