TRACK

The varsity track team more than lived up to the rather doubtful hopes of Coach Hillman by running a strong second to Penn in the triangular meet with Columbia and carrying away fifth place in the national intercollegiate at Boston. Thomson, the only individual entry sent to the Meadowbrook games June 7, walked away from the field in the high hurdle event and finished 12 yards ahead of its nearest competitor. At the same meet the one-mile relay team lost to the Syracuse quartet by a scant four-inch margin.

A heavy downpour of rain, continuing throughout the meet, prevented any exciting competition at the Penn-Columbia-Dartmouth affair May 17. The Green entries annexed 51 2-3 points, with first in the two mile, hammer throw, and shot put, to a total of 701-3 for Pennsylvania. Columbia trailed a poor third with a score of 21 points.

Cornell, Penn, Michigan, and Harvard were the only colleges to surpass Dartmouth's total of 14 points at the Intercollegiates May 30-31. Myers, captain-elect of next year's team, carried away the intercollegiate pole vault title;, replacing Jordan as national champion in the event with a vault of 12 ft. 6 inches. Dartmouth again proved strongest in the weight events, with Weld and Murphy taking first and third respectively in the hammer throw, while Coakley's fifth in the half mile added another point to the Green toal.
