thiNCETON, May lb.-Ine PROMINENT
amateur athletes who were expected to
carry OF the honors at the first open
handicap track games held at Princeton
did not live UP to the expectations this
afternoon All OF those entered did not
appear while n number of others either
were handicapped too heavily or else
were not In At condition to carry of the
first honors. Alvah Meyer. Mark Wright
and Harry Grumpelt were the only ones
that saved the big club ranks from rout.
The best performances of the after
noon were by Prlncetonians Mackenzie
establishing a new record OF 4 :2l 1-5 for
the Princeton track In the mile run, while
Hayes and Moore won the half and the
quarter in good time. Giordono OF Mar
auette A. c.. with a handicap Of 1875
yards, won the mile In 4:2i. but Mac
kenzie was just one-fifth Of A second be-
hind him. The Princeton miller ran a
heady race and finished with a strong
squirt that closed up the gap between
him and Giordono In sort order and al
most carried him to the tape the winner.
Hayes had a handicap of yards In
the half mile. Kiviat had been set at
scratch, but as he did not compete the
Tiger had the longest distance 10 travel.
From the crack Of the gun Hayes hit
a fast stride that carried him to the front
by the time the first quarter was pass ID.
His final flash OF speed brought him
down the stretch like whilrwind, and
ne broke the tape In 1913 1-5. The
quarter was won by Moore. Mo had
yards start, in 40 3-5 seconds.
