YALE BREAKS IN ON CALIFORNIA Blues End Western Su- premacy In Track
 And Field

Associated Press. 1.-The three-year reign of California in intercollegiate track and field ranks came to e:oee today when the Blue forces of Yeie, sweeping to their first victory in 2O years, won the 1924 championships after one of the most sensational tat- ties in the AS years of C.. A. A. A. "A. history. Not only was the far vests stirring challenge for a fourth straight title turned back, but it was done de- cisivcly, for two eastern squads, Tnle end Pennsylvania, fought 1t out for premier laurels with the Ellis victorious by the slender margin of a single point, 2S to 27, in battle whose closing stages witnessed the shattering of three championship records.
 Leland Stanford, main hope of the Pacific coast to carry on as California had done so brilliantly n the past, gave her eastern rivals mighty battle, but was forced to take third place with 241a points despite the heroic efforts of tGIeen Hartranft, who won both the discus and shot put with reccrd-break- ing performances.

 Close behind Stanford cunie Prince ton, with g points. and Penn State, with 21 points. Distanced. so far as championship hopes were concerned, were southern California, which fin- ished sixth, with If points, and Cali fornia, the defending champions, who were barely able to tie Harvard for eighth place, with 13 points, half point behind Johns Hopkins.
 Upsets increased the uncertainty that existed as to the result until the final toss in the last event, the hammer throw. Here, q Yale hero of heroes, c. A. Earl, came through with a third place mad the three points that spelled the margin of triumph over Pennsyl- vania. =
 The Quakers made a gallant bid for the championship that fell just short because the Red and Blue team lacked the balance which carried the Elis to victory.
 Glenn Hartranft, Stanford giant, who led the hotput qualifiers yesterday, shat tered the intercollegiate championship record when he tossed the 16-pound ball 40 feet 5M inches in his first trial in the finals. The former mark of 4S feet f1OA inches was held by Beatty of Columbia, and made in 1912.
