Especial to Kennebec JournaD

WaterVille, May Zo-ohoWHosoh
high school won the annual Colby
Interscholastic track and field meet
this Afternoon by capturing a total
Ecf Is points, more than double the
number of points taken by Bangor,
the nearest competitor. The meet
was the best that the Waterville col
lege has ever held and was highly
successful from all points of view. A
total Of sixteen high schools through
out the state entered teams in the
meet.
The team scores were as follows:
Skowhegan 26, Bangor IL, Edward
Little II, Morse 6, Deering and Wat
erville 5 each, Gardiner 4, Cony,
Madison, Jordan and Norway each.
White of Skowhegan team was the
high points man of the afternoon by
capturing two first places, on in the
running broad jump and one in the
440 yard dash, as well as third
place in the 100 yard dash.
Five of the standing records were
shattered in the meet this afternoon
and two new records which will be
tough to shoot at were set up in the
two new events. the pole vault and
100 yard high hurdles. The first of
the records to go was the $50 which
Bernard Of Waterville sent flying
when he broke the red yarn in two
minutes, five and three fifthj sec
onds. The old mark was two min
utes and twelve seconds. The Wat
erville runner put all that he had
into the last lap and the desperate
sprint of Jackson of the Cony team
failed by inches to nab him when he
fell across the finish line.
White of Skowhegan shattered the
next record in the 440 yard dash by
breaking the line in SO 1-5 seconds,
over the old record of So seconds nat.
The mile run was won by Palmer OF
Morse who was not pushed hard, yet
broke the record by completing the
four laps in the excellent time Of four
minutes 43 Us seconds. Both the
high and broad jump marks were
erased and new ones set up, Hubbard
of Edward Little leaping to new
height of five feet and five inches:
while White of the Skowhegan team
made his second record with Is feet
and four inches in the broad jump
