Ayers Fields Poorly.
Ayers inability to field his position
caused him most of his trouble. and he
was taken from the morning game in the
second inning. Engel, who finished the
contest. made very creditable showing,
and was aided by some sensational work
on the part of his teammates. This COM
bination held the Sox in check after the
second inning until the ninth. when they
added their final tally, largely due to a
couple of misplays with which Milan and
Moeller. who failed to stop hits into their
territory, were charged. But two re-
markable double plays, one Of which
was made possible by Shanks, the left
fielder, on the inf1eld, and another which

After getting a poor start in the morn
ing game, caused principally by Ayers
ineffective pitching and his erratic field

intended rally. Speaker started the in

These two performances give an idea

a still better demonstration of the all

Trainer Jack Moakiey brought down from
Ithaca is shown in the fact that the Red
and White team scored points in eleven
of the thirteen events on the program.
Pennsylvania scored in ten events. Mich
igan and Dartmouth in six, Yale in eight
and California in five. Michigan proved
unusually strong in the spirits, while cal
ifornia upheld the athletic reputation of
the far west with strong showing in the
field events. The Pacific coast champions
might have scored more heavily but for
the unfortunate breaking down Of Il. +.
Stanton, the Blue and Gold star sprintcr,

three seconds and ope fifth.
The half-mile run, which resulted i'll d
new record, was one OF the most exciting
events of the day. Meredith, although lie
had been forced to top speed To Win ,ne

the pace with the Cornell runners from
the start. He held his own with Inc
leaders until the final sprint Tor the cord

Another Pennsylvania star also fell be-
fore the prowess OF the Cornell distance
runners when McCurdy, the 1913 cham

last mile with Jackson OF the oxford Uni

McCurdy was expected to repeat his vic
tory of last year, but proved unequal to
the task. He ran az game race and was
in touch of the pacemakerS until the final
40 yards. Here HonInire began his final
sprint and McCurdy could not hold the
pace dropping behind until it appeared
that Potter Of Cornell would wresl second
place from him. The latter was not quite
equal to the task, however. just as Nc
Curdy could not push Hoffmire into cut
ting the record still lower in the last dash
for the cord.
