versity's forces continued their
record mop-up of track and field
championships in the IC-4A'meet
today but their title runaway was
just a daisy chain compared to the
doings of A. Richmond Morcom, a
one-man track team from New
Hampshire.
While the Violets used II men to
make this championship their fifth
team title In a ecord-smashing
run of a year, A. Richmond was
leaping all over the long horse
shoe-shaped Municipal Stadium on
Randalls Island, taking three in
dividual crowns all by himself for
the entertainment of some 1900
customers who ratified around the
concrete stands.
He's slim little guy from Brain
tree. Mass, has a pair of springs
for legs, igh-jumps with one foot
bare, is known as Boo" to his
pals and, although married and
father, goes into the Army early in
July.
He's Best as Leaper.
But most of all, he can Jump.
During the afternoon he took the
high and broad Jump with leaps of
6-foot4 and % feet 10 inches. re-
spectively, and kept his hand in
by grabbing the pole vault at IA
feet fiat. just SIS inches away from
the meet record his hero" Keith
Brown of Yale, posted eight years
ago.
There's never been anything like
It IN the 81 years of this meet. No
one ever has taken three field
events before and his three indi-
vidual titles were more than any
single team took throughout the
afternoon.
Unfortunately. however. the full
squads from the other colleges had
him surrounded, so his Is points
gave New Hampshire only fourth
place in the team standings. back

Kelsey Scores Double.
Boo's triple completely outshone
the dash double chalked up by
Harvey Kelsey, Princeton speedster
and gave the New Hampshireites
something to cheer about after
Dartmouth's Don Burnham failed in
his bid to gain both the half mile and
mile. Don took the mile easily
enough in 4:18.2. but was caught in
a scramble on the last lap of the
half, fell and finished last.
The Violets added the outdoor
title to the indoor IC-4A, national
indoor AAU. and indoor and out
door metropolitan collegiate crowns
they've already won this year. They
did it today with only two cham
pionships-tle mile relay and War
rem Halliburton's 220-yard low hur-
dies Win-but they placed in 10 of
the 16 events to take the honors
In walk.
Navy's second-place finish over
a highly rated Army team came as
something of a surprise to the folks
although the cadets apparently were
handicapped because one-third of
their 30-man squad rushed to the
meet after an all-night operational
flight last night.
