TRACK

The interclass handicap track meets have proved more popular this year than ever before. Beginning with the first one .on March 21, and (for the three already held nearly every indoor record has been threatened and four have actually been broken.

In the first meet, won by the freshmen, the records in the 600-yard run and in the high hurdles were broken, although neither of the new marks were allowed.

The second meet, however, saw two indoor records broken beyond question. The sophomore relay team won the 1914 championship in the record time of 1:54 3-5 seconds, lowering the relay mark of 1:56 3-5 seconds held by Kappa Kappa Kappa fraternity. H. Lord '16, established a record of 1:22 4-5 seconds in the 600-yard novice event. The 800-yard heel and toe walk was another feature of the meet. This time the sophomores captured the greatest number of points.

On March 21, in the third meet, S. W. Saltmarsh '14, broke the College record in the mile and a half run, by-twenty seconds, covering the distance from scratch in 7 minutes and 2-5 seconds. H. T. Worthington '17, cleared 22 feet, 2¾ inches in the broad jump, establishing a new indoor record and coming within 1¼ inches of the College record. Nine fraternities entered teams in competition for the interfraternity championship. The finals have not been run off yet.

The meets are drawing large crowds and incidentally are uncovering much new track material. The trophies offered by several of the alumni have proved a big incentive in the competitions.
