    VALE ALUMNI WHHEEKLY
HALF-MILE RUN.
Won by John Cregan, ’99, Princeton;
John Bray, 1900, Williams, second; A.
Grant, 1900, Harvard, third; W. I.
Brennan, 1900 S., Yale, fourth. Time,
I minute 58% seconds. Intercollegiate
record 1.5824, made by Hollister in
18090.
The result of this was never in doubt
after Cregan went to the front two
hundred yards from home, but Bray
gave him no time to spare, finishing
second with a gap of less than six feet
open between him and the winner.
Grant was ten yards in the rear and
Brennan five yards behind him. This
event had been looked upon as nearly
sure for R. Grant of Pennsylvania, but
for some reason he was not able to hold
the pace and dropped out of the race
after half the distance.
I20-YARDS HURDLE.
Final heat won by A. C. Kraenzlein,
1900 D., Pennsylvania; E. C. Perkins,
’98, Yale, second; J. W. Hallowell, 1901,
Harvard, third; J. M. McKibbin, ’99
M., Pennsylvania, fourth. Time, 153
seconds. Previous intercollegiate rec-
ord 154% seconds, held jointly by Wil-
liams of Yale and Chase of Dart-
mouth.
Kraenzlein sustained the record
which. had preceded him for extraor-
dinary hurdling and in the prelimina-
ries as well as the final easily ran away
from the field. In the latter he beat out
Captain Perkins of the Yale team, by
eight feet. Hallowell was a yard be-
hind with McKibbin pushing him hard
for third place. The time of this event
is within one-fifth of a second of the
world’s record.
QUARTER-MILE BICYCLE RACE.
Final heat won by C. C. F. Schwarz,
Columbia; Ray Dawson, Columbia,
second; L. B. Dannemiller, George-
town, third; J. T. Anderson, ’98, Yale,
fourth. Time, 32% seconds.
Anderson and Strong were the only
Yale men qualifying for this bicycle
sprint. The latter, though making a
good fight for second place in the finals,
could do no better than fourth. Danne-
miller showed a great burst of speed in
the last hundred yards and was only
beaten by Dawson by a few inches, who
in turn lapped the winner.
440-YARDS RUN.
Final heat won by F. W. Jarvis, 1900,
Princeton; H: G. Lee, ’99, Syracuse,
second; .C.. F.. Luce, 1900, Yale, third;
Be He Pishy ’o0,. (Miarvard, «feursh.
Time, . 504% seconds. Intercollegiate
record 49% seconds, made by Shattuck
of Amherst in r8ot.
Ordway and Luce were the only Yale
men who qualified for this event. In
the finals Luce ran a waiting race, but
could not get away from the bunch on
the home stretch as it was believed he
could. He was beaten at the tape by
Jarvis of Princeton, and Lee of Syra-
cuse, by a yard.
220-YARDS HURDLE.
220-Yards Hurdle (Semi-Finals)—
First heat won by J. L.. Bremer, Har-
vard; second, W. G. Moore, Harvard.
Time 25% seconds. Second heat won
by A.°.C,::Kraenzlein, .Pennsylvania;
second, I. W. ‘Hallowell; Harvard.
Time 25% seconds. :
Final—Won by A. C. Kraenzlein, ’99
D., Pennsylvania; second, J. L. Bremer,
Harvard; third, W. G. Morse, Harvard;
fourth, J. W. Hallowell; Harvard.
Time 2334 seconds. Previous inter-
collegiate record 243%, held by Bremer
of Harvard in 1895.
The work in the preliminary heats on
Friday gave some idea of the racing
to be expected in this event. Captain
Perkins was the only Yale man in the
finals and ran a pretty race until the
scratch, when he was beaten oitt.
Kraenzlein was never. headed, finishing
eight yards in advance of Harvard’s
best man, Bremer, who held the world’s
record for this distance. The time, 233%
lowers the world’s record an even sec-
ond. |
220-YARDS RUN.
Final heat won by J. W. B. Tewks-
bury, 799 D., Pennsylvania; J. H. Rush,
’98, Princeton, second; R. D. Hoffman,
‘99 D., Pennsylvania, third; E. J. Green,
toor L. S., Harvard, fourth. Time, 213%
seconds. Intercollegiate record 21%
seconds, made by Wefers in 1896. |
Conway of Yale won third place in
the second semi-finals, but obtained
nothing in the finals. The struggle for
first place was a beautiful one between
Rush and Tewksbury, the latter pass-
ing the Princeton man, who had ob-
tained a good lead at the outset, and
winning by five yards. Hoffman beat
Green out for third place by five or six
yards.
PUTTING THE I6-POUND SHOT.
Won by J. C. McCracken, 1901 M.,
Pennsylvania, with a put of 43 feet 8
inches; Robert Garrett, graduate, Johns
Hopkins, second, with a put of 4o feet
9% inches; E. E. O’Donnell, M.S.,
Yale, third, with a put of 39 feet 9%
inches; W. E. Bottger, ’99, Princeton,
fourth, with a put of 39 feet 4 inches.
Previous Intercollegiate record, 42 feet
11% inches, made by Hickok of Yale
in 1895.
It was a foregone conclusion that
McCracken would win this event. His
put of 43 feet 8 inches broke the Inter-
collegiate record of 42 feet 11%4 inches
held by W. O. Hickok, ’95. Sutphin,
who has been doing good work in prac-
tice in the shot put, did not qualify.
ONE MILE RUN.
Won by John Cregan, ’99, Princeton;
A. Grant, 1900 C., Pennsylvania, sec-
ond; R. Grant, 1900, Harvard, third; H.
Speer, 1900, Yale, tourth, Time, 4
minutes 2336 seconds. Intercollegiate
record, 4 minutes 2324 seconds, made
by Orton of University of Pennsyl-
vania in 1895.
The Grant brothers, Richard of Har-
vard, and Alex. of Pennsylvania, were
expected to win first and second re-
spectively for their colleges, but Cregan
left the bunch on the back stretch and
pulled away so far that he could not be
overhauled before the tape was reached.
Speer, of Yale, ran a good race and
finished on R. Grant’s heels.
CONE MILE WALK.
Won by W. B. Fetterman, Jr., ’98 M.,
Pennsylvania; A. N. Butler, 1900, Yale,
second; C. W. Ottley, M. S., ’99, Johns
Hopkins, third; J. P. Adams, 1900, Yale,
fourth. Time, 6 minutes 4524 seconds.
Previous Intercollegiate record, 6 min-
utes 5246 seconds, made by Borcheling
of Princeton. . ;
Fetterman far outclassed his oppo-
nents and moved away from them at the
outset with ease. He was out for a
record and did reduce the Intercol-
legiate time 724 seconds. His nearest
rival at the finish line was Butler of
Yale, 50 yards back, while Ottley and
ee trailed back twenty yards fur-
ther.
RUNNING BROAD JUMP.
Won by Myer Prinstein, 1901, Syra-
cuse, with a jump of 23 feet 734 inches;
J. R. Remington, ’98 C., Pennsylvania,
second, with a jump of .23 feet 3%
inches; A. C. Kraenzlein, 1900 D.,
Pennsylvania, third, with a jump of 23
feet 1% inches; A. L. Nickerson, 1901,
Harvard, fourth, with a jump of 22 feet
2% inches. Previous Intercollegiate
record, 22 feet 11% inches, made by
Mapes of Columbia in 1801.
The competition in this event was in
some respects the most remarkable of
the meet, the first three men go-
ing many inches beyond the best pre-
vious Intercollegiate performance, and

RUNNING HIGH JUMP.
A tie at 5 feet 111%4 inches between C.
U. Powell, ’98, of Cornell and J. (ae
Winsor, Jr., P. G., Pennsylvania; W.
G. Morse, 99, Harvard, third: A. N.
Rice, 1900, Harvard, fourth. Intercol-
legiate record, 6 feet 3 inches, made by
Winsor, University of Pennsylvania,
last year.
As usual, in case of a tie, the points
were distributed equally between the
tied men. A toss for the individual
prizes put Powell first, Winsor, second;
Morse, third; and Rice, fourth. The
competition was far below the standard
established last year, when the three
first men passed 6 feet 1 inch.
POLE VAULT.
A tie between R. G. Clapp, ’o9 S:,
Yale; B. Johnson, 1900, Yale, and W.
W. Hoyt, 1900, Harvard, at 11 feet 1
inch, ©. 1. “Dudley, ioo¢6 S.. Yale
fourth, with 10 feet 934 inches. Previ-
ous Intercollegiate record, 11 feet 35%
inches, made by Johnson of Yale in
1897.
Clapp did not come up to what he
had been doing in practice in the
vault by something like 4% or 5
inches. Johnson, also, had done better
work some weeks ago, but the weather
in this section of the country had been
so unfavorable that neither of these
men had had an opportunity to do even
a small amount of work in preparation.
In vaulting off the tie, Hoyt and Clapp
tied again at 11 feet 4%4 inches. ‘The
points on the first tie were divided and
Clapp lost to Hoyt on a toss-up. for
first prize. Selin did not qualify.
THROWING I16-POUND HAMMER.
Won by J. C. McCracken, 1901 M.,
Pennsylvania, with a throw of 149 feet
5 inches; H. C. Potter, ’98, Princeton,
second, with a throw of 138 feet 1 inch;
2, 1... Hare,, 1901; C., ..Pennsylvama,
third, with a throw of 124 feet 4
inches;..>..8. ,owtphin; (00.5... Yare
fourth, with a throw of 123 feet Io
inches. Previous Intercollegiate rec-
ord, 136 feet 3 inches, made by Wood-
ruff, University of Pennsylvania, last
year.
McCracken did not seem to put him-
self out much to break the Intercol-
legiate record by 13 feet 2 inches. He
could probably pass 150 feet if pushed,
which seems hardly likely just yet.
Potter also overcame the record by
several feet. Sutphin, Yale’s_ only
representative, fell from his practice
work and could not get better than 123
feet 10 inches.
MILE TANDEM BICYCLE RACE.
Final heat won by F. Schade, ’98, and
A. Moran, ’99, Georgetown; C. C. F.
Schwarz and J. T. Williams, 1900, Col-
umbia, second; B. Ripley and H. Mul-
ler, 1901, Princeton, third; H. N. Hall
and H. S. Waterman, ’99, Columbia,
fourth. Time, 2 minutes 16% seconds.
FIVE MILE BICYCLE RACE.
Final heat won by B. Ripley, 1901,
Princeton; Ray Dawson, ’99, Columbia,
second; I. A. Powell, ’99, Columbia,
third; C. C. Fulton Schwarz, 1900, Col-
umbia, fourth. Time, 12 minutes 2634
seconds.
Ripley rode a fine race and after do-
ing his share of pacing fell into the rear
till the last lap, when he shot to the
front and could not be overhauled by
the best Columbians, though his lead
was cut from 40 yards to 6 feet, by
Schwarz.

We have worked to meet

We reciprocate with still
