place and also moved up Teschner and
Butler.
In the two-mie event the Quaker
BOYS defeated the fast quartet of Notre
Dame runners. who recently established
q record at this distance. Five teams
answered the call, but after the first
relay Of half d mile the Quakers and
the Boilermakcrs were far out IN front,
fighting tooth and nail for the lead.
Beginning the second relay, Noonan,
one Of the Western runners. had a lead
Of three yards on Howard Berry, of
Penn. and as the latter failed TO follow
the stiff pace the Notre Dame athlete
gradually increased this advantage TO
thirty yards. With half lap TO 60,
Barry spirited and rapidly cut down
his rivals big lead
Rounding the turn, Berry caught
Noonan, and in a stride for stride
fight succeeded in drawing away from
his Notre Dame opponent at the end
to give Frank Dorsey, the third Penn
runner. a slight lead. Dorsey was OPP
posed by Kasper, for NOtre Dame, and
although the former managed 10 gain
a few yards. he lost II as Kasper
sprinted up TO him at the tape.
Scudder Shows Stamina
Scudder took up the running for
Penn. while Eddie Meehan upheld the
Notre Dame colors. Scudder held a
good lead until Meehan challenged on
the last turn. As they raced on it
appeared as if Scudder was weakening,
and fifty yards from the tape the Red
and Blue runner began to stagger.
Defeat seemed inevitable for the
Penn team. Calling upon the little
strength he had in reserve, Scudder
managed TO totter over the finish line,
10 win by several feet.
A brilliant squirt by Lennon gave
Penn the honors in the one-mile run.
Bob Simpson went out IN the van for
Missouri, but Dorsey gained the lead
for the Quaker institution on the next
relay. However, George Wyatt, the
third Missouri runner, soon regained
the lead, and found little trouble in
opening up an advantage Of ten yards
on Scudder, his opponent, who seemed
much fstigued, probably as a result of
his earlier race.
Joe Daggy relieved Wyatt and in
creased the Missouri teams advantage
10 twenty-five yards. Lennon here be-
gan what appeared TO be a hopeless
task by making a strong sprint IN the
last $50 yards. Slowly but surely
Lennon closed on the leader, and catch
ing the firing Daggy twenty-five yards
from the tape. went on to win by one
yard.
Butler captured the running broad

New York in Hard Luck
The New York college and school
teams were the victims of hard luck.
With the worsted within reach, the
Fordham team was passed by Pitts
burgh after setting the pace for the
greater part of the way. Both New
York University and Brooklyn Poly
Prep suffered likewise when their an
Choir runners weakened near the finish.
De Witt Clinton repeated it's victory
Of last year in the one-mile mile hign
school championship, while Flushing,
Englewood, Morris and Stuyvesant nm
