WHEN THE CRAB AND THE GIANT CLASH

D THE GIANT CLASH
pionship In the athletic meet,
though, Princeton failed, Yale scor-
ing a victory by 60la points to 561s.
This defeat came as surprise for
although the Ellis were conceded to
have the call in the field events, it
was expected that the Tigers would
more than make up for their short
comings in those fixtures by cor
railing a sufficient number of the
track events to bring them to the
fore on the total points scored. But
Yale was too able where she seemed
most weak.
G
In the thirteen events contested,
EIGHT on the track and five In the
field, Yale won eight of them. She
secured. an even break in the running
races, four all, and she captured four
out of the five matches in the field.
Princeton lost the rect when Bryan,
who was leading in the 120-yard hur-
dies, fell at the next to the last OBJ
stacle. If Bryan had won, or even
finished second, Princeton would have
won, for Yale got all three places in
the event. The struggle for the in
dividual point honors resulted in a
triple tie between Cornell and Potter
of Yale and Mckenzie of Princeton.
Captain Thomas, of Princeton, won a
Stiekney, of Princeton. displayed
great speed and endurance in the
two-mile run. Benton was the only
Princeton entrant to score a victory
in the field events. He was first in
the broad jump.

The Princeton baseball team,
against Cornell, looked mighty good,
but there will have to be considerable
more dash and spirit and all around
better play when tice codes for the
games with Yale. Cornell, with the
score TO l against her, was no
match at all for the Tigers, still there
was a lack of good, solid baseball in
evidence on the team. Copeland, who
did the pitching, was effective, but
he seemed to be uncertain. Captain
Worthington is perhaps out of his po-
sition at shortstop. Rhoads appears
to be a nifty hitter, and he might be
placed nearer the top of the bat
ting order, where his bingling would
be more effective. The feeling at
Princeton over the prospects of the
ball team is not very glowing, al
though the manner in which the
Tigers beat Cornell is sure to heighten
the spirits among the dubious.

The defeat of Cornell by Harvard
at Cambridge was the surprise of the
big college sport day. The points
scored were 60 to 3d. whereas the
Ithacans were expected to have
mighty little trouble in winning.
John Paul Jones' as looked for, cap
tured the one-mile run, but owing
to the stiff wind his time was slow.
C. L. Speiden, of Cornell, a powerful
fellow, was the sensation of the meet.
In winning. the two-mile he showed
rare speed, and easily pulled away
from Jones in the final sprint being
first by more than six yards. Coz
zens, of Cornell, displayed great speed
in the quarter-mile, making 1t in 81
seconds fiat Barron, Of Harvard,
was the contender, and the finish
was spectacular. Honors of the day
were divided between Jackson and
Cable, of Harvard, two colored boys,
and Keller, of Cornell. Each won
two first places.
@
OF the other college athletic meets,
Dartmouth, in defeating Pennsylva-
mia, furnished the unexpected. Pennsy
was looked upon as a sure winner
yet the score was 701a to 461s against
her. Granger, Newark boy, cap
tured the half-mile run, showing a
tremendous burst of speed, and Gui
Braun, also of Dartmouth, and {
Newark boy, too, won both hurdle
events. Brown won from Wesleyan
6S to 5s. Deetjen, Of Montclair, run
ming in the 220-yard dash, finished
first. Amherst took Williams int
camp, rs % to 40 1-s. and the Yal
Cubs beat the Princeton Cubs at New
Haven 1928 to % 1-3.
