In the annual public high title track
meet in Wilson Stadium. Coach Rath's s

event-the javelin throw-entering

the track events, but it was their
strength in the field tests that told.
Henry Mcdonald of Tech was the
only boy to break a record. He leaped

old mark of II feet was made by
Courtney Suter Of Central May 81,

Western on May 81, 1924. Another
notable performance was that of
Lange in the high jump, who attained

1t was the impression of many Eas-
tern followers yesterday that there
was a regulation either written or un-
written that barred a competitor from
