games Of the Irish-American Athletic
Club on its Celtic Park grounds yes
tcrday.
With the Knights OF ST. Antony be-
ing the only audaclous rival on hand,
the race developed into a rank frost,
with the Quaker students winning by
a full city block in 4:29 3-5.
In fact, large number Of the
entrants failed to toe the starting
mark, in several Of the races only half
a dozen contesting for the prizes.
Iowever, the spectators were thrilled
several exciting finishes.
l.. &. Scudder, Tommy Lennon,
Frank Dorsey and the great Ted Mere
dith composed the Pennsylvania team,
which. in respective order. covered the
$50. 900, 440 and $50 yard relays. The
Knights held the var position for the
first two relays, as they were allowed
a handicap Of SO yards over the Penn
men. Dorsey handed ten-yard lead
10 Meredith. the anchor man, which
the latter increased. with little effort,
TO 10 yards at the finish.
