About 200 men competed in the thirty-eighth annual Winter Carnival at Soldiers Field yesterday afternoon. Interest in the meet was large, and centered chiefly in the four relay races of the afternoon. The meet was featured by the large number of places that were won by inexperienced men.
The CRIMSON team won the Publications Relay, thus retaining the championship which it has held for several years. The men who composed the winning team were Robert Worthington '23, C. R. Fordyce '23, Corliss Lamont '24, and A. H. Gordon '23. They ran in the above order. The baseball men, by superior ability and technique, won the managers' relay event. Raoul Pantaleoni '24, lead-off man for the winners, gained a lead-off man for the winners, gained a lead at the start which his successors, Morrison Mills '25, F. V. Crane '25, and C. P. Fordyce '23, retained in spite of the efforts of the crew and track managers.
Weight Men Lose Out
In a new event added to the program this year, the pole vaulters' relay team defeated a quartet of weight men after a hard struggle. D. D. Reidy Jr. '23, W. T. Reidy '25, J. D. Martindale '24, and H. R. Davis '23 ran for the winners and were opposed by H. T. Dunker '25, C. A. C. Eastman '24, L. K. Marshall '23, and M. A. Cheek Jr. '26.
The Freshmen won the interclass relay in spite of the strong bid of the Seniors on the final leg, when Vinton Chapin '23 nearly overtook R. G. Allen '26, who had been given a large start by his team-mates. The other members of the 1926 team were W. R. Chase, J. C. McGlone, and F. P. Kane.
