FiguerOa StuypeSant Ace
in Herald Prize Meet
Triple Winner in Columbia nterschoastics Threatens
Similar Success and New Broad Jump Record
in Big Carnival on Saturday.

That there will be a new high school
the triple championship carnival for
THE NEW York HERALps medals and
cups next Saturday practically was
made certain by Carlo Figueroa of
Stuyvesant in the Columbia interscho-
lastics last Saturday. In spite of his
being i'll the negro jumped 22 feet 6
inches. Even If he does no better at
the title games at the Brooklyn Athletic
margin Of one foot. The present stand
ard, set by Don Brown Of Jamaica in
1914, is 81 feet inches.
Figueroa also will compete in the
running high jump, in which he ex-
poets to win also. and in the 220 yard
dash. in which he Is a favorite. The
rules forbid any lads taking part in
more than one track event or two field
competitions. He may participate in
all three of these, and Figueroa, who is
a very versatile athlete, Is going to
take full advantage OF the rules.
Figueroa looks like a triple winner
and is expected to duplicate the tri-
umphs he scored in the meet on Satur-
day. Major OF De Witt Clinton. the
high jump champion, was not placed.
while Figueroa won without having to
do his best. He is Stuyvesant's big
ace, and may turn the tide in favor of
the Manhattan school.
F5tuyvesant now stands big Ia
vorite for the title. Last Saturday
Stuyvesant won the Columbia meet
with AZ points. while Manual Training
got only 10. Erasmus Hall sprang a
surprise and got 81, and may beat
Manual for second place in THE NEW
YORK HERALD's big meet. At any rate.

The great rivalry between George
Gerschevski of Stuyvesant and Harold
Meyers of Erasmus in the 120 yard high
hurdles grew more intense at the Co
lumbia games. Gierschevski just did
beat his rival on the soggy track in II
seconds. ana it looks as If the high
school record of 16 3-5 seconds will go
by the board on Saturday. Meyers
still insists that he can beat Gier-
schevski.
Milton Barnett of Commercial High,
winner of his first gold medal on Sat-
urday. is another probable winner of a

the Columbia half mile on wretched

least 2 :05 in fast going on Saturday.
That everything may not be sweet
for Frank Hussey of Stuyvesant in the

Chairman Butler indicated that the
