Philadelphia. May 2S. Cornell did
every thing that was expected in the
preliminary trials Of the intercollegiate
track and field championship games on
Franklin Field to-day
In fact, the lthacans did more than
was expected Of them. for they quail
fed al least one man in each of to-
DAYS eleven events, and will have rep
scItation in every contest tomorrow,
something unparalleled in recent his
tory Of the meetings. and at the same
time a fact indicative Of the wonderful
balance Of this truly remarkable Cor
nell team. In all, the Ithacans quail
rcd eighteen men.
Harvard was the only other team 10
show any kind of strength as compared
with the lthacans. The Crimson quail
fed si&tcen men in eight of the eleven
events. Yale, with eleven men in nine
events. was third best in placing its
representatives, while Pennsylvania
qualified only eight men in five events,
so that in large part the Quakers Will
be cutting their own throats. so TO
speak. for the benefit of the other
teams when to-morrow's finals come
around.
Princeton came through with eight
men: Dartmouth and Penn State with
six each Michigan with 5; Columbia
with four; Maine with three; Bowdoln
with two. and FIavcrford. Johns Hop
kins, Lafayette and Syracuse with one
each. Trial heats were held in all
events except the one-mile and two
mile runs.
Two Records for Bailey.
Foremost Of to-day's performances
was the hammer throwing Of H. J.
Bailey. the big lumbcrman from Maine.
Bailey smashed John De Wits stand
ing record Of 1Gf feet 1852 inches on
his first throw with heave of 100 feet.
Then he added three quarters OF an
inch In later throw, and had the
honor of making two new marks IN one
day. lie says he'll do better to-mor-
row. Bailey wasn't hard pressed 70
win, although McCutcheon, Of Cornell,
did l57 feet So inches and the other
men who qualified we're well up.
Misfortune pcrched Oh Pennsyl-
vania's banners carly in the day. and
did not forsakc the Red and Blue at
any part of the afternoon. Most DIS
tressing of the mishaps was the pull
ing of tendon By Don Lippincott in
the second heat Of the lOO-yard dash.
Linpincott stumbled and almost fell
headlong at the 75-yard mark. lie was
distorted with pain and was helped to
one side by Louis Madeira, last years
captain at Pennsylvania. Then Mike
Dorizas lifted his injured captain IN
his arms and STROBE of the held as II
he were carrying a baby. 1t was LIP
pincott's last appearance on the track
for the Red and Blue
Trips Over Hurdle.
Later in the day r. y. Ferguson,
PENNSYLVANIA star hurdler, tripped
over the second flight of hurdles in
the race over the low timbers. and
could get no better than third after
picking himself up out of the dust. In
the ensuing heat for unplaced men
he hmped down the course and was
lust beaten. The Quakers lost another
hurdler when +. p. Finnegan pulled
tendon in the high hurdles race.

the best Splinter in the games because
of his rafting race IN the century
