In the second annual Bowdoin Col
lege indoor interscholastic meet held
Saturday in the Hyde Athletic build
ing, Weybrant of Brunswick High
school set a new worlds record for
schoolboys in the 40-yard dash, max
ing the distance in 4 2-5 seconds.
Weybrant made his record in the first
trial heat of the event and oddly
enough failed to qualify for the finals.
Although the Brunswick boys time
exceeds any yet made, it is possible
1t will not be allowed to stand as a
worlds record because of the fact that
the race was run upon a dirt track.
Hebron Academy easily won the
meet, scoring 43 points. Brunswick
High was second with 10. Westbrook
Seminary third with 91-2. Maine Cen
trail Institute made points. Portland
High, 4, Lewiston High, l, and Deer
ing High IL point.
The best time in the relay races was
made by Hebron when they beat
westbrook' Seminary in a fast race in
ord made last year by Brunswick High
by over seconds.
The second fastest time in relay
was made by the Brunswick High
quartette, which defeated Cony High
Of Augusta in the time of I'm. 46 2-5s.,
which was also better than last years
time. Although the Augusta boys
were defeated they are to be con-
graduated upon the excellent showing
which they made against the Bruns-
wick boys. Cony's time in finishing
was estimated as under 1 minute 81
seconds.
Hutton Of Hebron was the individual
point-winner OF the meet taking three
first places, making a total of Is
points. Donegan of Hebron was sec-
ond with nine points.
One of the prettiest events of the
day was the 45-yard high hurdles,
which was won by Captain Donegan
of Hebron in 2-5 seconds: Is of
second better than the time made by
Pratt of Noble and Greenough, who
Won the event at the B. A. A. games
at Boston Saturday.
But two of the eight records made
last year at the Bowdoin meet were
allowed to stand. These were the sS0-
yard run. and the running high jump.
The Ss0-yard run was marked by
bad pile-up in which 12 men went to
the ground in rounding the north cor
ner This happened upon the fourth
lap. Dutch Allen of westbrook
Seminary emerged from the bunch
minus one shoe and easily won the
race without bothering to pick up his
shoe. The summary:
