Dead Heat in the Mile.
There will always be question i'm the
minds If many about the finish in the
mile The Judges decided Jones. of Cornell,
and Taber Of Brown. had run dead heat.

looked IS if the Brunonian had beaten
Jones by inches, passing him in the last
stride Berna came out with Jones and

n was 2 small field. only fourteen runners
toeing the mark.
Jones was expected to run close to his
record mark and possibly lower It. As
usual. the Comedians stayed In the ruck
for half 4 mile. and allowed the others to
tight IL out I'm front. LiIm. of Penn State
was the pacemaker until Berna worked his
way 10 the front soon after the halfmile
mark had been passed. Jones seemed to
be running with the idea of holding up
Berns as long as possible.
On the last lap Jones started his sprint
and Berna followed at his heels until they
reached the stretch. Here Taber, Of
Brown. and Madeira who had been run
ming grand race for Pennsylvania all
the way. challenged the Ithacans. Both
caught and passed Berna fifty yards from
the finish. Taber showed tremendous

looked as II his breast broke the worsted
but the judges said they hit 1t stimuli
taneously Madeira was three yards back
and Berna about the same distance be-
hind Madeira The time, 400 s-5. was much
slower than expected. Jones did not run
his race. for he was saving himself for
the half and at the same time worrying
about Berna
Cornell scored FIVE points between Jones
and Berna. whereas they figured to get
FIVE points from Jones alone. Berna got
point, but killed himself for the two-mile
where he had fine chance to win. though
the race was run in record time.
CorneII's Great Work in Half.
Cornell gobbled up everything in the half
mile run, in which Jones reduced his inter
collegiate record TO 1853 40 a full second
faster than he ran & year ago and within
two-fifths Of second Of the American
record Of 53 2-S, made by Charlie Kilpat-
rick, Of Union College. Jones came out for
the race in apparently fine condition. after
