HARVARD DEFEATS DARTMOUTH INTRACK

Never was the need of a new gymnasium offering training facilities for the track team better illustrated than on Saturday, May 8, at the Stadium, when Harvard' swamped the poorly-conditioned athletes of the Green in a dual track meet by the score of 92 to 25. In the track events, with the exception of the sprints and high hurdles,every event went with nine points to the Harvard runners but the field events resulted in somewhat closer competition.

Sherman of Dartmouth was the largest point winner for either side with his eleven points,a first in the broad jumpand a second in both the sprints. Jacques of Harvard displayed great form in winning the mile and the two-mile, while Foster defeated Sherman in the 100 and 220-yard dashes in fast time. Holdman tied with Barr of Harvard in the pole vault, while Palmer also tied for a first in the high jump. Both Captain Walker and Johnson, looked upon as sure point winners, the former in the two-mile and the latter in the hammer throw, were not able to compete. Summary :

THE N. E. I. A. A. GAMES

For the fourth successive year Dartmouth won first honors in the New England Intercollegiate Athletic Association meet, which was held on Technology Field, Brookline, Friday and Saturday afternoons, May 21 and 22, a total of 32 1-2 points being scored by the Green. M. I. T. was second with 27, Williams third with 24, and Bowdoin fourth with 20 1-2. The meet was much the closest- in years, the outcome being in doubt until the pole vault, the last event, had been decided. The weather was exceedingly poor, a cold, sharp wind blowing both days, and Saturday a drizzling rain rendered the track, already too heavily cindered, very slow. As a result, no records were broken and the times, with the exception of that in the mile, were slower than a year ago.

Sherman of Dartmouth, who was picked to win the dashes, sprained a tendon in his last trial broad jump Friday, but his team-mate, Jess Hawley, took his place, and secured first in both sprints. By winning the discus he totalled 15 points, the high . individual score of the meet. Horrax of Williams was a close second with 14 points, scored in the high jump, broad jump, pole vault, and high hurdles.

Dartmouth's chances of being champion for the fourth consecutive year looked very slim without the first contributed by Hawley in the 220-dash and discus and Holdman in the pole vault. Up to the time these events were pulled off, Tech and Williams seemed to be the favorites for the honor of the afternoon. When Kooyumjian of Amherst beat out Hawley's throw of Friday in the "biscuit throw," it was seen that the result depended upon Hawley's ability to win the discus. He responded to the test and' was a victor by six feet.

The 100-yard dash was a pretty race all the way between Robson of Wesleyan and Hawley, the latter winning by about a foot at the tape. In the 220-dash Hawley led his competitors from the gun, crossing a couple of yards to the good. The mile run went to Colbath of Bowdoin who easily outclassed everyone in the event. His sprint at the finish was a remarkable one. Dartmouth had Morris in the 440, but he was badly roughed on the back stretch and when he recovered his stride the other runners were about turning into the home stretch. Bacon of Wesleyan won, but Senattz of Tufts pushed him to the limit.

White of M. I. T. proved to be better than any in the 880. Fortier of Maine was second, and Baxter of Dartmouth third. Considering the heavy track, 2 minutes 2 3-5 seconds was pretty good time.

Slocum of Bowdoin, who was picked to win the two-mile, finished, but that was all he did do. Greene of Brown held the sway and set the pace for seven and a half laps, Howland of Tech setting the pace and winning out in the last half lap. Captain Walker was forced to drop out after three rounds, on account of his ankle. Clark of Dartmouth finished fifth.

Horrax took the high hurdles pretty handily from Mayhew of Brown. Marble of the Providence university was third. Mayhew lost out again in the low hurdles to Edwards of Bowdoin.

In the broad jump, Sherman's jump in the trials Friday of 21 feet 3 3-4 inches was good enough to win. Horrax was only an inch and three-quarters behind him but couldn't make up the difference.

Horrax and E. R. Palmer of Dartmouth were tied up once more in the high jump, this time at 5 ft. 9 3-4 in. Horrax lost in the toss-up for the gold medal. Dartmouth did not function in the shot put, the event going to Kilbourn, last fall's captain of the Amherst football team.

The hammer throw was won by Warren of Bowdoin at 29 ft. 2 1-4 in. Smith of Amherst, Metcalf of M. I. T., and Lewis of Dartmouth were rated in the order named.. Hawley scored another first in the discus, with Kooyumjian second and Kilbourn third.

Holdman went 11 ft. 6 in. Saturday in the pole vault, and won, which means he ought to be able to clear twelve feet with ease on a fair day. Allen of Tech was second and Horrax third. Jenks of Dartmouth and Salisbury of M. I. T. tied for fourth. The score:
