pied when the race started and it was
announced that 5000 were present.
Ray drew the pole position, with
Guilemot, Higgins and Romig in the
order named from the inside The Chi
eago flyer was off in front at the gnn
Romig was second, Higgins third and
Guillemot fourth. On the second Ian
Gulllemot drew up to second place,
Higgins held third place and Romig
was fourth.
Thus the quartet journeyed around
the circle until the seventh Lap when
Higgins. who had been hou-dlng the
Frenchman's heels, passed Guiliemot
and set sail for Ray, who was about
seven yards in front.
Ray Pulls Further Away
Rounding the next turn Ray pulled
frrther away from the field and in
the clash that followed Guillemot re-
gain s-o III place from Higgins, but
the French corporal was not to hold
even second honors fer any length of
time, for Higgins again came up and
Josef dropped back to third.
1t was plain that Cuillemot was in
for beating. He limped noticeably at
times and his speed was negligible,
Romig was the next man to pass the
Olympic champion, who was then sixty
yards in back Of Ray.
The handicaps allowed in the one
mile walk, the first final to be staged.
were altogether too liberal, and Joe
Pearman. n. Y. A. c., seven-mile ma
tional champion, who started from
scratch had to be content with second
place. w. Burkhard, Mohawk A. c., q
45-second man, was the ". nner Pear
man made q fine effort over the last
few laps to overtake Burkhard, who led

Due to the remarkable running of
Long Tom Campbell and H. Hilles
the Yale team won the intercollegiate
medley relay, at $50, 220 and 44o yards
and one mile. Harvard was second and
Columbia third.
Columbia's poor showing was brought
ABOUT largely by the absence of Walter
higgins, who was saving himself fol
the 5000 meter race. Campbell, whC
ran the $50, gave Hilles a 45-yard ad-
vantage over Lowenkopf. who ran the
last leg for Columbia.
Lowenkopf was unable to hold the
fast pace of Hilles. and dropped bacl;
to third when Connell, of Harvard,
made his bid. Hillea ran the pair into
the ground in the stretch, and won
with fifty yards to spare over O'Con-
nell, while Lowenkopf was a poor
third. The time was 1851 As.
Hal Cutbill, the Flying Parson" of
the Boston A. A. met with defeat for
the first time this year, when Long"
Tom Campbell, of Yale, beat him by
inches in the special 1,OO0-yard race.
Campbell raced through from third
place on the last lap, and beat Cutbill
IN most sensational style. The time
was 2:16
1t wa mpbelPs second victory Of
the even. -, for he pulled the Yale
colors to first place in the intercollegi-
atae relay, and was not figured TO beat
the speedy Cutbill because of his pre-
vious hard effort. Cutbill followed his
usual method of setting the pace at the
outset, with Sid Leslie, of the Guar
anty Club. and jock Sc .ers OF the New
York A. c., alternating N second posi-
ton Campbell was third until the
fourth lap, when he passed Sellers and
began his drive to the front.
Long" Tom drew up on even terms
with Cutbill rounding the last turn,
and raced the Boston man into submis-
sion in the stretch. 1t was the best
finish of the night.
