Little first-class competion was offered in the annual fall handicap meet, held inside Alumni Gymnasium on account of unfavorable weather conditions. The class of 1922 took first honors with a total of 34 points, to 32 for the freshmen, 26½ for 1921, and 4½ for 1920. Most of the varsity track men were kept out of the meet owing to football practice.
W. C. Beers ’2l was high scorer of the day with firsts in the shot put and 35 pound ham- mer throw and a third in the high jump. J. H. Lee ’23 put up a strong bid for the honors in both weight events. T_ S. Anderson ’22 was an easy winner in both high and low hurdle events.
The varsity cross country team has been meeting with some discouraging setbacks in its meets this fall. At Syracuse, October 2S, the Green runners trailed the representatives of 10 other colleges, finishing in last place. Again, in the triangular meet with Penn and Columbia November 8, the result was another last for Dartmouth. The varsity this fall has been made up entirely of inexperienced men, with the exception of Captain Crathern, who ran with the 1920 harriers three years ago. The first year hill-and-dale men have also been running in hard luck this fall, finishing last in the Yale invitation meet held at New Haven, November IS.
