NEW RECORD FOR DARTMOUTH IN INTERCOLLEGIATES

A first place in the high jump and a quadruple tie for second in the pole vault gave Dartmouth points and 11th place in the I. C. A. A. A. A. meet at the Harvard Stadium May 26. This, however, fails to tell the whole story, for not only did Dartmouth annex first place in the high jump, but Captain Brown also brought bac,k to Hanover a new intercollegiate record by clearing the bar at 6 feet 4 5/8 inches, an eighth of an inch better than the old mark set by Oler of Yale in 1915. Libbey was Dartmouth's other point scorer, vaulting 12 ft. 6 in.

California was an easy winner in the meet, totalling 40½ points against 31 for Princeton. Merchant of California contributed the best performance by collecting 13 points including a new record in the hammer throw, second in the shot put and fourth in both javelin and broad jump. No other records were broken, although LeConey of Lafayette tied the old mark in the century. In the final heat he cut a tenth of a second from the old time, but owing to wind at his back there is some doubt about the new mark.
