The annual open games of the New York Athletic Club were held on Saturday on Travers Island, the club's summer home. The games were all scratch and the track was in fine condition. A large number of college men entered and some succeeded in winning prizes. Princeton took five firsts and two thirds; Yale two firsts, one second and one third; Harvard one and one-half seconds and fourth; Columbia one second. Cary's work was exceptionally good, as he won the 100, 220 and 440 yards dashes. In the 100 yards dash Sherrill and Cary met; the race was very close until within five yards of the tape, when Sherrill broke down, Cary then winning easily.
