PRINCETON DEFEATED YALE AND UNIVERSITY IN TRACK

Handicapped by an insufficient number of entries and a lack of regular training the University track team went down to a thorough defeat at the hands of Yale and Princeton in the triangular meet at New Haven Saturday. The Tiger team won over the Elis by the narrow margin of 49 1-3 to 41 2-3 points, while the Crimson team scored only 13 points, more than half of which were due to one man, A. Stevens '19, who took first place in the hammer throw and second in the shot put.

One of the features of the meet was the one-mile run which developed into a struggle between Fisher of Yale and E. E. Lucas '19. Lucas finally lost to his opponent by a few feet. Other placemakers for the Crimson men were P. E. Stevenson '20, with a third place in the 440-yard dash, and D. J. Duggan '20 and Captain H. D. Costigan '20, with second and third respectively in the half-mile event.

No records were broken in the meet, and few were approximated, the men in general showing the effect of but three days' training a week allowed by military work at all three universities. The loss of many stars who are now in the service was plainly evident, though most of the contests were fiercely contested.

Erdman of Princeton was the star performer for that team, as he took first in both the hurdle events. Sweeney of Yale did good work in clearing 12 feet in the pole vault, and his teammate, Hefflefinger, was also prominent, winning places in three events.
