at Meet.
FIRST RACE IN SEASON


letic season got under way last night
in the 1920 Engineers Regiment Ar
,nory, where the eighteenth annual
games of Stuyvesant High School were
staged Thirteen hundred athletes
competed I'm the eleven open and seven
closed events.
The surprise Of the meet came in
the, 100 yard senior dash. when Frank
Hussey of Stuyvesant, champion
scholastic srrinter, was defeated for
the first time in fifteen races. The
conqueror of Hussey was Craig La
Vim of Poly Prep. who showed the way
to the tape by one yard. Randy Taylor,
another Stuyvesant lad. finished third
and John Sacco of the High School of
Commerce was fourth The time was
10 3-5 seconds.
At the crack of the starters gun
Taylor went to the front. closely fol-
lowed by La Vim. The pair ran in this
order until the fifty yard mark when
La Vim shot to the front. where he re-
NAMED to the end. Hussey. who was
running IN third place all this time.
finally passed Taylor. but his desperate
effort TO catch La Vim was in vain.
Hussey's defeat probably was due to
his long rest. 1t was his first race In
several months and he showed signs OF
being out of condition. II was on the
same floor, about a year ago that
Hussey set the indoor scholastic record
for the same distance. On that occa-
sion he defeated La Vim.
The other open dash. the 100 yard
Junior event, was won by n. Jaffee of
Commercial High OF Brooklyn. He won
by a scant margin over r. Hoctor Of
De La Sale Institute in IL 1-5 seconds.
]. Marino, with a handicap of two
feet. took the fifty yard dash for mid
gets, one OF the closed events. Davis
was second and Leon third. The little
winner covered the distance in s 3-l5
