won the open SS0-yard dash after one
| of the most brilliant finishes of the
| meet. The University of Pennsylvania
last forty yards. and then went out ir
| front. Gallagher. who was sporting
the colors of Mount st. Mary's College,
| began a sprint, though, which caused
surplus energy in stalling off his

ond.
The first relay, in which an educa-
| tional institution from Washington

nearly a quarter of lap ahead on the
final relay. The distance was half
mile.
The one-mile relay race between the
Episcopal High School of Alexandria
| and the Mercersburg Academy ended
in a victory for the latter. Mercers-

relays were not more than two yards
apart when they broke the tape.

came across the finish line in the
scholastic $50 good winner. He went
out in front at the beginning of the

the distance in a little more than 2.06.
Louis Connor, wearing the colors of
in the south Atlantic intercollegiate
mile. He lay behind Maxson of the
same school during the first six laps,
and then took the lead easily. He
went out in front on the seventh lap

creasing the distance and won easily.

second, the little fellow showing a
splendid squirt near the end of the
event.
Cronley of the University of Virginia
won the final of the open 100-yard
hurdles, although he was hard put to

Y. NJ. c. A. of Baltimore. Cronley

only inches to spare.
The second team representing the
Maryland Agricultural College won
from the Howard Athletic Club in a
half-mile relay race by about fifteen
for NJ. A. c. about two yards in front
of the Howard man, but Rakemann and
Vincent, running second and third for
the Farmers, opened up the gap.

feated the Western High reserve quar-
tet rather easily, the Alexandria young
sters being much too experienced and
strong for their younger opponents.

mile, winning by taking the lead on
the last lap and increasing 1t until
the end. He was ahead at the finish by
to place. Hall of 5th Regiment was
