HARVARD WON GYMNASTICS

The University gymnastic team defeated Pennsylvania in the dual meet held on Saturday afternoon in the Gymnasium by the score of 31 to 17. The Harvard team led from the start, winning first place in every event except the parallel bars. The members of the University team showed greater variety in their work and outclassed their opponents in the number of difficult tricks presented. Only first and second places were counted in the score, although every man in each event received a place.

Evans did the best work for Harvard, winning two first places. Captain Wood-bury and Krauss of Pennsylvania were each awarded one first and one second place. On the horizontal bar Evans performed a diversity of tricks with remarkable ease and form. The work on the side horse and at club swinging were unfinished and the poorest features of the meet. On the parallel bars, however, the performance was excellent; and Krauss, Woodbury, and Evans, all showing great skill, won first, second, and third places, respectively. Goodwin did some clever single tumbling.

At the close of the meet Olney, Pouleur, Boughton, Carpenter and Goodwin, in various combinations, gave an interesting exhibition of double and triple tumbling.

The summary:

Horizontal bar--Harvard 5; Pennsylvania, 3.

Club swinging--Harvard 5; Pennsylvania, 3.

Side horse--Harvard, 8; Pennsylvania, 0.

Swinging rings--Harvard 5; Pennsylvania, 3.

Parallel bars--Harvard 3; Pennsylvania, 5.
