TRACK

Pennsylvania's unexpected strength in field events, coupled with Dartmouth's unexpected weakness in the same department, and the Philadelphia team's clear superiorly on the track combined to give the Quaker track team a decisive win by the score of 80 to 55 in the dual meet on Memorial Field, May 6.

Dartmouth runners sprung a surprise by winning the 440 yard dash and Young gave a spectacular and attractive performance in winning the two mile run. The Pennsylvania team showed to better advantage in the hurdles than had been expected as well as in the weight events.

Interesting features of the meet were the special invitation 70 and 75 yard hurdle races in which Earl Thomson attempted to shatter the existing records, and the javelin throwing, an event which has just been added to the intercollegiate program this year. Bronder, of Pennsylvania, an Olympic competitor in this event, has little difficulty in outclassing the inexperienced Dartmouth hurlers. Earl Thomson, though failing to set new marks in the special events, gave a remarkable performance in equalling the record for the 75 yard race and coming with one-fifth of a second of the 70 yard record over a track extremely slow and soggy after two days of steady rainfall.
