Spring, and it seems that the eight
points will go to Harvard, though Yale
may produce a third place man.
The high jump too promises to be
a strong event for Harvard with Rice
and Rotch close for first place. Taintor
or Duval, Yale, however, may out-jump
Ellis, Glidden, Ware and Derby for the
one point.
Johnson, Adriance and Hord will
make the pole-vault solid for Yale, un-
less Hoyt of Harvard finally decides
to compete. In that case Harvard may
secure second place.
Stillman’s consistent work in the
hammer-throw should give Yale the five
points in this event. Boal of Harvard,
however, will push him for the place,
with Brown, Harvard, or Clark, Yale,
third.
Beck, Yale, will win the shot-put,
with the other points doubtful between
Boal and Ellis of Harvard and Francis
of Yale.
A review of the events shows that
Yale may be expected to show especial
strength in the sprints, middle-distance
runs, weights and pole-vault, while Har-
vard will depend for her points on the
long runs, the hurdle races and the
two jumps. ee
YALE AND CALIFORNIA,
Track Meet at the Field Saturday—
The Entries.
Yale meets the athletes from the Uni-
versity of California, on the track at
Yale Field, Saturday, May 5, and will
contest with them the twelve regular
track and field events. The Westerners
arrived at Princeton Wednesday, May
2, from their long trip and will make
that place their headquarters during
their stay in the East, using the Prince-
ton track for practice. Besides the
games with Yale, the Californians will
meet im the East, Princeton, Pennsyl-
vania, and will enter the intercollegiate
games in New York. On their home-
ward journey, they will enter the West-
ern intercollegiates at Chicago, in which
they will meet, among others, Wiscon-
sin, Michigan and Chicago.
In the broad-jump, hammer-throw,
pole-vault and 1o00-yards dash, the re-
cords of the Californians show them to
be very strong, but Yale should win the
meet with something to spare. The
Californians will enter in the twelve
events only nine men, first and second
place counting.
The Yale entries for the California
meet at Yale Field, Saturday, May 5, are:

Intercollegiate Shoot.
The semi-annual intercollegiate shoot
wil be held this year May 5, many days
earlier than usual, at the grounds of the
New Haven Gun Club. Teams from
Yale, Harvard, Princeton and the Uni-
versity of Pennsylvania wil compete. A
change in the shooting rules has been
made this year which permits a man to
shoot at fifty birds instead of thirty as
formerly. Each man on the winning
team will receive a cup, as will the man
who makes the highest individual score.
The Yale men expect to make a good
showing, although they do not expect
to win the meet.

INTER-CLASS GAMES,
A Large Number of Competitors—
‘S¥nter-Joint Races.
One of the most encouraging signs for .
the improvement of Yale’s track ath-
letics was the large number of competi-
tors in the inter-class games at the Field,
Saturday afternoon, April 28 and the
good work done by a large number of
new men. The weather was cloudy and
rather cold and the track not fast. Con-
sidering these things, the performance
of J. B. Thomas, Jr., a Freshman, who
ran the high hurdles in 16% seconds,
was good. In the mile run another
Freshman, W. B. Weston, came to the
front and won easily. He could have
taken many seconds off his winning
time, but he was not at all pushed. In
the field events, F. G. Beck, 1903 M.S.,
put the shot 42 feet 7 inches, and George
S. Stillman, 1901, threw the hammer
132 feet 5 inches. After the event was
closed Stillman threw the hammer over
138 feet.
An amusing feature of the afternoon’s
sport was the relay matches, between
teams representing a number of the
prominent eating clubs, which were
called “inter-joint races.” The specta-
tors were intensely partisan in these
events and cheered their favorites con-
stantly whether the race was a close one
or not.
The summary:
100-yard dash—Winner, C. J. Gleason,
1900; second, I. Richards, Jr., 1900 S.;
third, W. Arnstein, 1902S. Time 10%

Yale 15; Amherst 6.
The Yale Nine defeated Amherst at
the Field Wednesday afternoon, by the
score of 15 to 6, in an eight-inning game
which was characterized by loose, care-
less play on Yale’s side, and slovenly
fielding and poor judgment on the part
of Amherst. The game moved so slowly
that it was necessary for Umpire Gruber
to call it at the end of the eighth inning,
on account of darkness. Captain Camp’s
change of Sullivan from back-stop to
right field and Cunha from the bench
to Sullivan’s place seemed to work very
well, Sullivan playing the unfamiliar
position cleanly, while Cunha’s work in
throwing to bases was the best seen at
Yale in some years. ‘Altogether, the
Yale team were scored with 14 hits,
many of which would not have been
hits had the opposing outfield been able
to hold or field the ball. Cunha, Quinby,
Camp and Sharpe made home runs,
Cunha’s being one of the longest hits
seen at Yale Field for a long time,
the ball going between left-field and
center, stopping only after it had crossed
the running track. Yale had made 14
- runs up to the 5th inning and from that
time on played very ragged, careless
ball. Ambherst made four runs in the
sixth inning through the singles of
Harris, Rushmore, Biram and Thomp-
son, which were aided by the errors
of Barnwell and Sharpe, McKelvy,
who pitched for Yale, did fair work.
He gave five bases on balls and struck
out six men. ‘The score:

As to our
New Quarters
Our ambition has been to make and
equip a store that would meet
New Haven’s most exacting de-
mands. We have gone on the
principle that only the best that
any city had was good enough
for this city, the home of Yale,
and that sometimes that would’nt
do. How do you think we have
succeeded ?

Yale 2; Wesleyan 0.
In the ball game with Wesleyan at
Middletown, Saturday, April 28, Yale
shut out her opponents and was herself
able to score two runs, one in the second
and one in the ninth inning. Something
of the sharpness of the fielding may be
indicated by the score, which shows that
Yale made no errors and Wesleyan but
2 and those in the ninth inning. Robert-
son’s work in the box was of the high-
est order. He allowed only two hits
and fielded his position well. Only
twenty-seven men went to bat for Wes-
leyan, of which number not a man saw
second base. Only two got to first base.
For Yale, in the first inning Quinby
led with a single and succeeded in
reaching second on Barnwell’s grounder
to third. He was left there however,
as Camp and Sullivan both flied out. In
the second inning Cunha got to first
by Havey’s error, and went to third on
Brown’s single. Sharpe followed with a
single which scored Cunha. In the next
four innings the men went out as they
came up, with the exception that Guern-
sey and Camp got to first on dead balls.
In the seventh it looked favorable for a
Yale score, but Guernsey and Robertson
both struck out and retired the side. In
the ninth inning Sharpe got to first on
a single, stole second and scored on
Quinby’s hit. Cunha caught well.
The score:
YALE.
