meeting here to-day by a score OF 81
points 10 % and thereby furnished sur
prise.
penetrating east wind drove into the
stadium, along the backstretch ana
straight against the athletes in the quar-
ter and half mile runs, so that record
breaking was out of the question. The
competition was of the keenest and it was
not until the final heat in the low hurdles
( that the Crimson was sure Of victory.
! In the low timbers A. l.. Jackson ano
j. B. Cummings. both Of Harvard. nm
/ ished first and second. Many Of the
! events were one-sided. Harvard getting all
the points in the high hurdles and the
broad jump and the Ithacans cleaning up
in the shot-put
In FIVE other events first and second
places went TO the same team, and IN
only three did the team that got first
place fail TO secure second or tie for
second place. The best performance OF
the day was in the quartermile Iun, this
! being won by CoZZers Of Cornell, whose
race aga nst Barron. OF Harvard. also was
! the most spectacular Of the meet. COZ
zens led all the way around. and was
timed in 81 seconds fat This was de-
: cidedly good under the conditions, when
it is thought handicapped him about two
seconds
John Paul Icnes. OF Cornell. had no
chance to do any record breaking in the
mile run. as he was held up by the wind
on the backstretch. While he won his
event. II was IN minutes % seconc

% yards. The running Of Speiden OF
| Cornell. in the two-mile event caught the
crowd Speiden. big fellow. kept pace
/ with Jones all the time and came into
the last lap with his teammate and some
20 yards ahead OF Boyd. who led the
Harvard field. On the last turn Speiden
pulled away from Jones, beating him by
six Yards The time was minutes oi
seconds. and Speiden looks much faster
than that.
Keller. OF Cornell. did some good work
in the dashes. winning both. Refers
time in the final Of the 100 was 10 seconds
fat. ard in the furlong he was caught N
p as seconds. Cozzens, who previously
had won the quarter. was a close second.
The high hurdles final was farce, as
Harvard had all the qualiiers. Gable, or
Harvard won two first places, the broad
Jump and hammer throw. These compe-
titions came practically together on the
programme. and Cable was kept busy.
His best jump was q feet 2i3 inches
which is not up 10 his standard. while IN
the hammer his winning throw Vas ~
feet 80 inches.
The high jumping and vaulting were not
especially good. feet 10 inches winning
