CARLISLE INDIANS

Washington Cross Country Club
Lands Third Position in
Games.

bod tlleI, 1eOTSetOWn peerless
track athlete, won the Johns Hop
kins indoor meet at Baltimore last
night, scoring 1S points himself
against Carlisle's IA, which was good
enough to land the Indians in Sec
ond place. The work of Eller was
the most dazzling ever witnessed in
this section and predicts the great
strength of the Blue and Gray on
the track this season with him in
the lineup. GeorEetown's total OF
points was 80, Carlisle following
with IA; Washington Cross-Country
Club, third, with 10, and Central
High School, fourth, with 3. The
victory for Washington athletes was
well-nigh complete.
Eller showed the way in the cen
tury and 220 and galloped over the
sticks in the 1OO-yard hurdles in the
amazing time of IL As seconds, set"
ting new Southern record and what
may be declared a new worlds mark
for the event. Jim Thorpe, Carlisle's
star, and Gilbert Horrax, the Johns
Hopkins hurdler, were left far in
the rear when the Blue and Gray
athlete got under way. He tumbled
two sticks in his victorious course,
however, and this may cause him to
lose the worlds record.
Gets Second Place.
In the 16-pound shotput Eller, with
enough to come second to the win
work was the greatest individual ex-
hlbition of the meet. d.

showed good headwOrk and a burst
of speed that carried him far ahead

headed after the gun sounded.
Georgetown's relay four bumped
into misfortune when the Richmond
and won from the HilItoppers in the
mile clash between the two fours.

s feet "a inches in the high, sag
actual leap of feet 4 inches. This
is a new Southern record.
