they are crowding Clinton closely.
The outstanding individual feat was
performed by Jack Arnold OF Manual
Training in the fifty yard race against
Boys High of Brooklyn. Arnold. who
was at his best, not only won the event
easily but clipped three-fifths of a Sec
ond off his own p S. A. L. record.
Cornell Braisted OF Manual Training
the p. S. A. L. title holder at 100 yards
disappointed many spectators when be
lodged Arnold in the fifty and Herbert
Behn in the 100 yard race. If he feared
that either boy would take his measure
he showed good Judgment in not compel
ing against them. for he scored over In
ferior opponents in both the 100 yard
event and the fancy diving contest. His
teammates thought Braisted displayed
fine generalship, for his two victories
gave his school ten points. The sum.
