Almost doubling the score on its
nearest rival while bagging six
individual titles, Catholic Univer-
sity's trackmen captured their third
consecutive Mason-Dixie Conference
championship in the sixth annual
renewal of the games here today.
Paced by smooth-striding Johnny
Corbett, who retained his crowns in
the mile and Emile gallops, the
Cardinals rolled up the impressive
total of 641a points while Delaware
was beating out Washington College
for runner-up honors, 1914 to IS.
Other teams finished in the fol-
lowing order: Johns Hopkins, 1919;
Randolph Macon, IT; Bridgewater,
Is; Western Maryland, 8l2; Amer
ican University, 8, and Gallaudet. 8.
Five Records Shattered.
Five records were inscribed in the
books, one credited to Catholics
Johnny Doyle, who broke the tape
in the 880-yard run in 2 minutes,
6/10 seconds, slicing almost a full
second off the mark hung up by
Driscoll of Johns Hopkins two years
ago.
Other record breakers were
Johnny Lovett, Randolph-Macon, in
the 100; Bill Rosenthal, Johns Hop
kins. in the shotput; Mickey Parde
of Hopkins, pole vault, and John
Rawlings, Randolph-Macon, javelin.
Vince Campenella, Catholic Uni
versity's freshman sprint star whose
old habit of crossing over into the
wrong lane caused him to be disqual-
flied in the 100, thereby losing
second place, won the 220 in the fast
time of 222 seconds, which also
would be record according TO
advance publicity on the meet. But
the mark was questioned by George
Ekaitis, Washington College coach,
who claimed the Cardinal merely
equalled the figures hung up by
Bill Young two years ago.
Carleton Douglas of Deleware was
a double winner. He won the 120-
yard high hurdles in the good time
of 1916 and surprised by taking the
high jump with leap of feet, II
inches. Earl Stevens, usually de-
pendable Gallaudet ace who won
the event last year with a record
making 6-foot jump, failed to place.
Cards Sweep Quarter-MiIe.
Catholic University made clean
sweep of the first three positions
In fast quarter, which saw johnny
Weschler hit the tape in SIG, trailed
by Teammates Jim Malaney and
Charley OKeefe. Weschler came
back to place second behind Cam
penella in the 220.
Cleve Stauffer, Catholics broad
Jumper, got second place and Walter
Makofske the runner-up points in
the shot.
Ill luck overlook Charley. Riehl,
Catholics freshman pole vaulter.
who was injured on his third and
last attempt but did well enough
to get third. The youngster landed
on the sharp edge of board and
was believed to have fractured his
ankle
Corbett ran well paced races to
take his two events, showing a
strong finishing kick to win the mile.
In the 2-mile he had 'Slim" Chase,
Western Maryland's persistent dis
tance runner, at his heels for six
of the eight laps but pulled out in
front on the last two and was
breezing at the finish.
The track was slow and the meet
was conducted under adverse con-
ditions. A heavy rain fell about
an hour before the start of the
finals and light drizzle continued
until the last two events.
