GENERAL SPORTS
Delaware Loses TO Haverford;
Newark Meet a Great Event
continned From Page Sine.

They not only greatly enjoyed the
sports during the afternoon, but we're
50 royally entertained during their
stay in Newark that all expressed
a desire to return for other meets as
long as they are In school. In the
morning the exhibition drill was
given largely for their benefit and at
noon all of the contestants were en-
tertained at a luncheon In the gym
naslum.
while Of course they did not make
the time or distance that the older
and more experienced athletes In class
and the dual meet did, yet the
rivalry between the contestants OF
the events of class ?, was probably
the keenest and attracted more at
tention from the spectators. This
was especially true of the contestants
from the Lewes and Dover high
schools. The contests between these
two were all spirited and while
I.ewes nosed out Dover, winning both
the loving cup for the relay and the
banner offered for the school scoring
the largest number Of points It was
only the 10 points secured by Lewes
in the relay in which Dover failed
TO get a place that brought their total
above that of the boys from the Capt.
tai
All of the high schools in class 2
did not have entries in all the events.
Newark, considering the few entries,
made n good showing as did also
Georgetown. DUPONT and Ellyton high
schools. A silver loving cup was
awarded the relay team winning the
event in each class. They will be-
come the property of the team first

cup for class one was presented by
Joseph Marvel and for class ., by
Millard T.. Davis, both OF Wilmington
The school in each class scoring the
greatest number of points was pre-
sented with a handsome silk banner

Tome Institute In class 1 and Lewes
High In class 2. In addition to these
prizes, gold, silver and bronze medals
we're awarded the individuals finish
ing first, second and third in each
event of each class.
One of the features OF the meet
was the fast time made by the con-
testants in class / and especially
those from Tome Institute. Tome
captured first place in all of the track
events except the one mile run which
went to Wilmington Conference Aca-
DENY. The Maryland boys, however,
had TO take a back seat to the Della
ware schools and especially those
from Wilmington in the field events.
A comparison OF the time made by
the winners of the six track events
In class / with the winners of the
same events IN the dual meet between
Delaware and DreNel. shows that in
three of them the class / winners
strractls equailed the time made by
the winners In the dual meet and in
The other three the class 1 men made
faster time. In the 100 yard dash
the time IN both class / and the dual
meet was 10 3-5 seconds: I'm the 220
rard hurdles the time In both was
27 AS seconds and 440 yard dash

Jones, of Tome, made the $50 yard
run In two minutes 10 1-5 seconds,
while Fulton, of Drexel, winner of
he same event In the dual meet. was
I'll 1-5 making the $50 yards.
Fhe individual feature event of the
entire day was the race run by Zim-
Norman in the one mile event OF
class 1. He not only made the mile
In 25 1-5 seconds faster than Crothers
winner Of the event I'm the dual meet.
but HIS time OF minutes so 1-5
seconds beats the Delaware College
record OF ". A. Sawdon, 4.59 %,
made in 1912, by 9 1-5 seconds. Zim-
norman ran a beautiful race and
seemed to have something left at the
inish.
In class I Tome Institute scored
"A 1-3 points and won the banner.

points as follows: Wilmington High.
81; Wilmington Conference Aca-

by scoring 3S points and the other
schools scored points as follows
n
II 1-3; Georgetown, IL 1-3 and Elk
Ton. 10.
One of the features Of the dual
meet was the running of Captain
Archie Dean. of the Delaware team
In the 120 and 220 hurdles. He broke
the local college recol IS in both
events. The previous re ord in the
100 hurdles was 19 3-5 seconds and
was held by Dean himself and the
record for the 220 hurdles was 2S
seconds made in 1904 by NJ. Hayes
Wilson.
Delaware won five of the eight
track events from Drexel, but was
outclassed i'm the field events and
consequently lost the meet by a total
sccre of 81 to 46.
In the 100 yard dash. Smith, of
Delaware. won easily and could have
made better time had he been pushed.
This was also true OF Marshall in the
$40 yard dash. Crothers, winner of
The one mile. ran a pretty race. While
the time was not fast, he used excel
lent judgment which brought him
over a winner. Cranston. for Della
ware, got a place in several of the
long runs, he being IN the half. one
and two mile events.
