Good records were made yesterday at

vania State College. The times for the
various events and the heights and
distance in the field competition were
much above the average. Penn State
won the games rather easily, scoring
IS points against % for Georgetown.
Perhaps the most commendable fea-
ture of the meet was the performance
Of weidmann Of Georgetown. He clear
ed over twelve feet in the pole vault.
which, IL repeated in the south ATTAIN
tic meets. will practically insure him
of first places and a new record. loves
effort in the high jump barely missed
six feet. and it is doubtful IL there ia
another man in the south capable of
taking his measure. OConnor threw
than thirty eight feet and Green nm
ished second in the same event
Penn State featured in the running
competition. Dolbin and White COW
cred the 1oo-yard dash and 22o-yard
dash in fast time, finishing first and
second in each event. The time for the
century was O.102-5 and for tho fur
long O.22 2-5. Mason won the quart r
in 0.524- and Whiting got the mile In
