LeGendre, it will be remembered
was not in shape to compete in the
intercollegiate last year. After the
south Atlantic he made no special
preparation. This year he has been
groomed for the dashes and jump as
well as the taVelin, a new event.
With Thomson, of Dartmouth. out
or the running. Barron, off Penn
state. appears to be the star hur'
dler Of the colleges. 1t will be re-
membered that Barron has been sec
ond to Thomson in instances where
the Dartmouth star has broken or
equalled the record.
A glance over last years figures
shows that California won with
27H points, Harvard was second
with 81, Dartmouth third with 20.
Penn fourth with 1917, Stanford
fifth with Is, and Princeton and
Cornell tied for sixth with Is.
Other points were scored as fol.
lows: Penn State and NJ. I. T., 10:
Lafayette, 8: Syracuse, 8; George
town, 8; Rutgers, 4; Holy Cross, 3;
Columbia, IL; and BOwdoin, l..
Penn. of course, has Larry Brown
but has lost Maxam and Eby, who
accounted for ten points. Earl
Thomson of Dartmouth, won ten
points for the Hanovarians.
Dartmouth and Penn appear to
be considerably out of the going
leaving California. Harvard, Prince
ton and Cornell well up to the fore
with the Penn State, Georgetown
and Lafayette stars figuring eXten'
sively.
1t is perhaps Of interest to know
that several /. C. "A records have
withstood the tests for many years
Earl Thomson's 120-yard hurdle
mark made in 1920 is the only rec
ord to be broken since Ivan G.
Dresser ran the two miles in 1919 IN
minutes % 2-5 seconds.
About the only record in danger
this season is the hundred\ Alfred
Leconey, of Lafayette, did Q 7-10 lost
Saturday at the Navy. which Is bet
ter than the record held jointly by
Wefers, of Georgetown; Craig, OF
Michigan, and Patterson, OF Penn.
Romig, of Penn State, in the two
miles, has done 9 minutes 27 seconds
indoors this winter. Tho big track
meets this spring have produced
nothing outside of Leconey's per
formance, that of Allan Woodrins, OF
Syracuse, in the Penn Relays, and
that of Larry Brown. also in the
Penn Relays. to warrant record per
formances this week.
