Today's meeting differed from Those
usually held in this country. Like
the four previous international meet
ings, scoring was on first places only,
except in case of tie. when second
places were to be checked. There
were ten events, without trial heats
or preliminary efforts.
The shotput was contested for the
first time at these games. Only one
dash-the 1O0-yard-and one hurdles
|race-12O-yard, over high barriers
were arranged, and the pole vault
and other events
The Englishmen hoped to obtain
their point credits principally in the
running events, quarter-mile, half
mile, mile and two-mile runs. The
American collegians counted on cut
ting in for at least one of those first
places, to win also all but one of the
Reld events, consisting of broad jump.
high jump, shotput and hammer
throw. The deciding point was re-
earded as likely to develop in the

the hammer throw.
Capt. H. G. Rudd. the oxford and

principal factor in the British hopes.
