Here's work Saturday takes enc back
to the days of John McCandless

Of Mckinley, who covered the ground
in 2 minutes So seconds, three-fifths
Eof !. a second more than, the time of
the interschoIastic record Crozier ran
a pretty race, but It was by sheer
hard work that. right at the tape, he
forged ahead of Jere Smith of Puma
hou and WAS declared winner. Gro
zier was in third place at the start,
with Smith leading, Int soon got neck
to-neek with the Punahou man, keep

Dne ii the bfggcst nrprfsesruf the
afternoon came when Gordon Brown,
captain Of the winning team, defeated
"BilI'' Jansen, holder of the island
record. In the high jump. Jansen
spiked himself in one of his first jumps
and although he showed no signs of
being troubled he was hindered ma
terially by the cut. Brown cleared 5
feet IA inches when he won the
first place, while Jansen took the
second place by jumping 5 feet 4
inches. Lindley was not jumping as
well as usual on Saturday although
he took the third place easily. The
winner tried to- clear six feet but was
unsuccessful.
AS was the case in the. high jump
the man who was rated as. the best
broad jumper fell short and landed IN
the third place. Such was the luck
of Takeuchi, the Mills jumper, who
won that event in the recent A. A. u.
meet Hore, the crack st. Louis ath-
iete, proved an easyswinner when he
covered 20 feet; his closest rival was
George Lindley of Punahou who jump
ed 10 feet 75k inches.
In the pole vault two, of the con-
tenders broke. their poles while the
bar was still low. Mott-Smith was
just off the ground when his stick
broke and he landed in the pit, es-
Gaping any sort of injury Wicke's
pole cracked when be was in the air
but he was not injured either. Lind
ley and Brown of Oahu College took
the first eight points for that school
by clearing . feet 8 inches. Since
they were both from the same school
time was not taken to run off the
tie. Wicke took the last place for the
Mel inleyites. =. -. i. .....

There was large crowd present
and the day was a. perfect one for
such contest. The meeting was well
handled, both by, the officials and by
the police, and credit is due the crowd

The outlook for interscholastie
track and field sports next year is ex-
cellent, as the majority of the athletes
from the several schools, who have
done so we'll this season, will be out
for work in 1915. Judging from the
way records have been broken this
season, there is no telling what will
be done, next year. but it looks vehs
much as II an entirely new inter.
scholastic record schedule will have
to be made up next March. T.
