y
fields. the midshipmen athletes on Sat
urday afternoon staged their schedul-
ed lacrosse game and the field and
track meet, but the heavy showers OF
rain that fell at intervals during the
day converted the baseball diam )nd
and the tennis courts into a veritable
sea of mud, and to pull off" these
events were rendered entirely out of
the question
Honors were divided in the two
events that did come off. The middies.
won the lacrosse engagement from the
stickmen Of Swarthmore College. Of
Pennsylvania. in handy style, but lost
the fiedl and track meet TO the team OF
the University of Virginia. Regret was
felt over the cancellation of the base
ball game, because Lafayette College
was to have been met and good con-
test was anticipated. The middle ten
mis- players were booked to meet the
racqueters of Tufts College.
The well-balanced team of field and
track athletes of the University OF
| Virginia lowered the colors of the
midshipmen by the score of GO TO 40
points. Notwithstanding the fact that
the cinder path was heavy due to the
rains of Friday night and showers that
! fell internationally while the meet was
on, good time was made in all OF the
events.
Though the middies clinched seven
| first places against five by the Vir-
/ ginians, the latter managed 10 pile up
their score through finishes in second
and third Curtis, Nays distance
runner, carried off individual honors.
He negotiated the half and mile runs
with comparative ease over other con-
tenders.
Thirteen events in all were contest
ed, but points were not counted in the
relay race, owing to a misunderstood
| ing in the contract The Virginians
brought runners for the two or mile
distance, whereas Uncle Sans wards
generally compete in the mile. How
ever, an exhibition mile was run anG
this was won by the sailor lads. The
keenest competition developed in the
900 yard dash. McCondray won the
event, closely pressed by Seward
there being put few inches difference
at the tape.
