spectacular events on the program.
Dingle of Idaho had been counted on
to win the race. When he had run
a little more than a third of the way
his shoe became loosened and then
fell off. For the last ESQ yards of the
race, with fine pluck, Dingle ran
without his shoe on one foot, and came
within six inches Of winning the race
Had he not lost his shoe it is certain
that he would have broken the col
lege record and possibly the north
west record. His bare foot was cut
badly by the rough, sharp cinders,
but when it came time for the relay
race, he was there to run it and made
a splendid showing. The loss of the
race was terrible blow to
him as well as to Idaho, but the grit
and courage he displayed in spite of
the accident went long way toward
making Idaho feel as good as if he
had won it. The close finish at the
end was, Of course, all the more
heartbreaking because of the accident.
