sentatives of forty-eight private. public
and parochial schools entered in thir-
teen track and two field events. gained
admission to the armory only after suf-
fering many Inconvenience. Two thou
sand or more were turned away by the
police because OF the buildings lack OF
accommodation for SO large a throng.
OF the several hundred athletes that
tried for honors Eric Dawkins, negro
runner Of Stuyvesant High School.
eclipsed all in point of accomplishments.
He not only set a new p. 8. A. L. mark,
but captured first honors In two events.
The competition in which the black
comet" as his schoolmates have affac-
tionately dubbed Dawkins. earned rec
ord honors was the 220 yard dash for
Juniors. In the final heat Dawkins
breasted the tape in advance in "A 2-5
seconds. The best previous P. s. A. l..
mark was one-ftfth of a second slower.
Other Records Fall.
Other P. s. A. L. records that were
lowered were those for the 8s0-yard run
and sS0-yard relay race. Those that
We're equalled were the 440-yard relay
race. 220-yard dash for seniors and the
10O-yard dash. The meet marks that
suffered were the 300-yard run for nov
ices and the six lap relay race.
The biggest upset Of the games came
with the running of the final heat Of
the 100-yard dash for seniors. Frederick
Handy. OF Stuyvesant High School. the
p. 5. A. l.. champion sprinter, was re-
garded as sure winner. but he failed
to race up to expectations and had to
be content with fourth place. The win
ner turned up In a lightly regarded
representative OF Stuyvesant named
Francis Hussy, who earned his nrst
prize-a third in a novice race six weeks
