TRACK

No one who saw the mammoth bonfire on the evening of May 18 would doubt whether the student body were back of the track team, or whether the said track team were a success. Hanover seldom saw a more enthusiastic celebration and "night-shirt parade" than that celebrating Dartmouth's track victory in the New England Intercollegiates. The final score showed Dartmouth in the lead with 46 points, and Brown a poor second with just half that number. There were two particular reasons for such an outburst of enthusiasm. First the outcome was a revenge for the defeat in the same meet administered so unexpectedly by Williams a year ago, and then it helped to wipe out the disappointment over the defeat at the hands of the Crimson the Saturday before.

In the Harvard-Dartmouth dual meet the result was in doubt until the next to the last event, but Harvard finally won 66½ to 50½. Ihree records were broken and several events upset the dopester's points. Marc Wright surprised all in the pole vault by a wonderful vault of 12 feet 61/8 inches, his nearest competitor being a foot below him. Enright broke another record winning the high jump at 6 feet 1½ inches. Cable of Harvard was the third record breaker, taking the hammer throw at 154 feet 11 2-5 inches. Ambrose and Ball both furnished surprises by taking a first and a second respectively in their events, the broad jump and the two mile. Dartmouth took five firsts in all, the hundred through Olson and the half-mile through Dolan, besides those already mentioned. Dartmouth also took seven second places, and six third places.

In the New England Intercollegiates, as in the Harvard meet, several individual stars stood out, the brightest of whom was H. E. Aiarden '12 He took two firsts and a fourth and broke two records, the hammer and the discus. For these feats he received four gold medals, two for the two first places and two for records. His record in the hammer was 148 feet 8½ inches, thereby bettering his team mate Tilley's record of last year by two feet and two inches. His discus record was 129 feet, bettering the former record held by Pevear, Dartmouth '09, by considerably over five feet. Wright and Enright repeated their excellent performances of ' last week in the pole vault and high jump, the heights being, respectively, 12 feet 6¼ inches and 6 feet 7-16 inches. Ball again proved himself one of the best college two-milers in New England by taking a second to .Powers of Maine in a very fast race.
