In the track and field meet which
Immediately followed the baseball
game, Alma had her own way win
ming with ease, Olivet securing second
honors and the Mt Pleasant Normal
third place. BY the time the meet
started, a raw cold wind was blowing
across the field which greatly incon-
venienced both athletes and specta-
tors and was the cause of the univer-
sally poor marks. The Alma tracks
ters scored seventy two points, Olivet
forty one and Mt. Pleasant thirteen
Though Alma secured nine firsts,
not more than one of them went to
one man. Harry Jackson as usual,
won the high jump not extending him
self at all in doing it. 1t looks more
every day as though the tall senior
would better his own Intercollegiate
record in this great event by inches
at the coming meet at Albion in June.
He would round out brilliant track
record by hanging up a mark at which
future high jumpers could undoubted-
ly shoot at in vain. Wood heaved the
discus 104 feet 10 inches without even
taking the trouble to don track attire
for the event, simply entering the
event in his street clothes. Marks
showed unexpected speed and pushed
the veteran Chisholm almost to the
limit in the century dash. The cap
tain however showed that he has more
speed than ever by running this race
in the fastest time comparatively
speaking of any race of the day. The
track was heavy and strong wind
was blowing down the track Leaven-
worth of Olivet and Gallagher of AL
ma fought out two pretty dues in the
two mile and half mile races, the hon
ors being split between them.
The best mark of the day was made
by Steggle who threw the javelin over
nine feet farther than the Intercol-
legiate record. 1t looks as though the
mark for last year would fall for sure
