all challenges for an impress
sive triumph.
Weisieger had half a dozen
strides on runner up John
Reilly from Georgetown at the
tape. Defending champion Dea-
con Jones came in a distant
fifth.
Reilly Sets Pace
Reilly set the early pace for a
slow 64 second clocking at the
quarter but Weiseiger had COM
mand when the half mile time
of 2:07.2 was posted.
Reilly made a game bid to
regain the lead about lap from
the end but Weiseiger would
have none of it. Though his
smooth strides belied the pace,
the Quantico (Va.,) Marine
flew over the boards in the last
quarter.
Frank Budd was forced to
Wertake Brooks johnson to win
the 50-yard dash.
Budd's late burst sent him
past the understanding entry
from the University of Chicago
Track Club but his winning
time of SIS seconds was his
SloWest of the night.

dash mark of 90, Budd easily
outclassed the field in capturing
his trial heat in So and semi
final in 5.4.

versity of Illinois, shook the
kinks out of competitive in

Bill Crothers from the
University of Toronto emerged
from a last lap elbow duel with
Charles Durant of the Boston
AA to win the 1000 in 2:12.1.
Crowd Jeers Decision
Crothers' triumph was greet
ed by jeerS and when he STOP
ped to have words with Durant
the latter approached him
angrily. After a short discus
sion by officials, Crothers was
announced winner.
Durant had been in front
from the second through the
fifth laps but with one and a
half to go, Crothers moved out.
When he looked over his
shoulder, Durant pulled almost
even, On the far turn of the
final lap, Durant made a bid
to pass and a CrotherS elbow
sent the challenger wide on
the banked turn. Crothers con-
tended he had been pushed
first.
Fordham'S Frank Tomeo took
advantage of the mishap for a
second place finish and Dur
