Last nights meet was held on a
tWclve-lap track. The turns were
somcy. hat perilous, and there were
J several nasty spills. In consideration
of the fact that the Brooklanders
were handicapped by being unable TO
obtain the seats counted upon ana
that there was so much to be done IN
ttho structure, the meet was a decided
success.
Starting late and under some me-
chaniNal and technical handicapS, the
meet got into full swing when the
( dashes and hurdles were disposed OF.
1t was quite late in the evening De
fore Referee II. C. Byrd assumed the

open, the invitation fifty, both after
POOR starts; won the open quarter,
and was third in the S. A. I. a. A.
Quarter.

ftfty, winning in every heat. He
sprcad-caEled the field in the open

bungling. His sixteen points led all

Somewhat older than the other high
and prep school athletes. had no diff

tic quarter and second to Stock, his
teammatc, in the fifty. The double
win Of the Military Academy lad
coupled with that of Stock, gained

hillcd the interscholastic milers out
on a killing race and easily led White,
