The Waterbury Democrat., 1934-03-05

Because of a record entry of 548 athletes representing 25 colleges, the meet is being staged for the first time in the huge Garden Arena, and for the first time under the metric system.
 Double-barreled features are pro- vided in a new clash between Bill Bothron and Gene Venzke in the 1, ,5O0-meters, and red hot three cornered battle for the college team championship.
 Tough Task
 The meeting between Bonthron of Princeton and Venzke of Penn sylvania (perhaps their last engage ment on any track) may result in clipping of the 3:52.2 record estab- lished by Glenn Cunningham of Kansas a week ago Saturday.
 Cunningham will not be compet. ing tonight.
 Among the 16 other runners competing in the 1,500-meters are Frank Crowley of Manhattan, col legiate indoor mile champion; his mate, John Thompson; Paul Vip. ond Cornell; Frank Nordell, N. Y. U.; Bob Quimby, Dartmouth, and Waldo Sweet, Amherst. Keen Rivals Yale, New York University and Manhattan College are expected to fight 1t out for the team cham | pionship, although Cornell and Harvard may make it a five-way battle. Yale, defending champion, will depend largely upon points se- cured by it's field entrants. The Ellis are almost certain to take 12 points in the pole vault with Keith Brown, Wirt Thompson and Frank Pierce performing.
 Five individual champions will defend their titles. They are: Dick Bell of M. I. T., 60-meter dash Crowley, 1,500-meters; George Spitz, N. Y. U., winner in the broad jump, and co-winner in the high jump; Keith Brown, Yale, co-cham. pion in the high jump and pole vault, and Wirt Thompson. Yale who split the pole vault title with Brown.
