By A. c. CAVAGNARO

The athletes OF the lnter-Sectlonal
Athletic League "did their Bit by COM
peting in a set of track and field games
for the Red Cross fund at the lewiston
Stadium yesterday. Ten thousand spec
tators sat in the amphitheatre to watch
the 600 athletes of the organization
strive for glory. No prizes were award
ed, as the winners waived them TO help
the fund No admission was charged,
but through the sale of programmes a
total of little over $500 was realized.
Preceding the competition, Red Cross
nurses, the athletes, officials and a
small group Of soldiers paraded around
the track behind the band of the Oza-
nam Athletic Association.
Terry Halpine, the track captain OF
the Morningside Athletic Club, earned
the individual honors. The Harlem
distance runner has been taking rest
for the last month, and he showed that
il prCfited him greatly, as he won both
the one and three mile runs in handy
fashion. His easiest victory came in
the shorter race, when he assumed a
lead early and won by fifty yards IN
the good time Of 1882 As.
However. Halpine had a stiff tussle
to win the three-mile event. When he
jumped in the van of his field Of forty
rivals he was challenged by Jimmy
Brooks, of the Mohawk Athletic Club.
For almost one mile the pair ran stride
for stride. Beginning the last lap Hal
pin sprinted away from Brooks. The
latter was also passed on the home
stretch by Victor Voteretsas, the
scratch man, who ran q wonderful race,
but found considerable difficulty in
ploughing his way through the big pack
of barriers.
Another double winner was Ralph
Brown, of the Salem Crescent Athletic
Club, who captured two sprint races.
In the 100-yard race Brown had start
OF six yards, and won by a fair mar
gin in the fast time Of 10 l-5 seconds.
lie added the 220-yard event to his
credit shortly afterward, making great
strides from the start and winning by
two yards in p seconds, with ten yards
handicap.
