game at easton next sat ! urday this will leave captain adams walker and mckenzie to choose from to start the games against rutgers and pittsburgh leaving the probable line-up as follows rogers prior adams hess ambler hays mell rice and dußois the pitcher's box will probably be shared by dußois and adams while prior will play his usual position behind the abt i conditions and some fairly good times resulted the track was in excellent condition and there was scarcely any wind to hinder the trackmen captain jose carol was running in excellent form easily capturing first place in both dashes and tying his record of ten seconds flat for the century he also broke the 220-yard dash record running it in 22 2-5 seconds mckelvie was the outstanding performer for the blue and gold scoring ten points for his team when he won first place in the javelin and dis cus throws there were there other leading scorers for le high in addition to captain carol smith the newly de veloped timber topper for the brown and white easily won both hurdle events thus scoring ten points for lehigh gisriel ac counted for eight points when he won first place in the shot put and placed second in the discus

in 26-mile event didn't expect to last more than five didn't train for race | a great deal has been written and spoken about the necessity of strict hard training which must be done to become a run ner of recognized ability this is true of all distances and just before the olympic trials the boston marathon for the team which is to represent this coun try next summer it was pointed | out that men desiring to run chat gruelling distance must make even greater sacrifices than other runners says ted mere-j dith in the philadelphia even ing bulletin however there are excep tions to all rules and the re sults of the boston marathon brought out an interesting one i it if so exceptional that i am of the belief it will prove the on iy one of that nature ralph williams of quincy mass finished seventh and due to a canadian entry being i in sixth palce he was within the first six americans and won a place on the team now wil liams was never considered as a probable candidate for the team j in fact he had never run over five miles previous to the race and just eirtered for fun ex pecting to drop out soon after the race really got under way he first started running in new york on relay teams at short distances as a quarter iniler he was a poor help to any of the teams he ran on but lov ed the sport and his entry was made at all the meets pete hegelman thd old six day runner and now a trainer | of distance runners told the writer that williams never did any distance running in new york and after going to quincy j never ran further than fivej miles williams enjoyed the same surprise on finishing the race and in seventh place as did his friends i just wanted to be down as a starter in this fam ous race he told hegelman and was only going to stay up until 1 felt tired 1 went up with the leaders and after going about five miles felt good so kept on going the first thing i knew we were three-quarters through the race then i was de termined to finish on the other hand

nine little is known of the strength of the pittsburgh team except that they have al ready defeated bucknell and also syracuse the game is ex pected to be a very hard fought one from beginning to end coach baldwin will probably use his same line-up in the field but his choice in the box is not yet known however it is al most a sure thing that dußois j will be saved for the first laf r i ayette game at easton next sat ! urday this will leave captain adams walker and mckenzie to choose from to start the games against rutgers and pittsburgh leaving the probable line-up as follows rogers prior adams hess ambler hays mell rice and dußois the pitcher's box will probably be shared by dußois and adams while prior will play his usual position behind the abt i conditions and some fairly good times resulted the track was in excellent condition and there was scarcely any wind to hinder the trackmen captain jose carol was running in excellent form easily capturing first place in both dashes

in 26-mile event didn't expect to last more than five didn't train for race | a great deal has been written and spoken about the necessity of strict hard training which must be done to become a run ner of recognized ability this is true of all distances and just before the olympic trials the boston marathon for the team which is to represent this coun try next summer it was pointed | out that men desiring to run chat gruelling distance must make even greater sacrifices than other runners says ted mere-j dith in the philadelphia even ing bulletin however there are excep tions to all rules and the re sults of the boston marathon brought out an interesting one i it if so exceptional that i am of the belief it will prove the on iy one of that nature ralph williams of quincy mass finished seventh and due to a canadian entry being i in sixth palce he was within the first six americans and won a place on the team now wil liams was never considered as a probable candidate for the team j in fact he had never run over five miles previous to the race and just eirtered for fun ex pecting to drop out soon after the race really got under way he first started running in new york on relay teams at short distances as a quarter iniler he was a poor help to any of the teams he ran on but lov ed the sport and his entry was made at all the meets pete hegelman thd old six day runner and now a trainer | of distance runners told the writer that williams never did any distance running in new york and after going to quincy j never ran further than fivej miles williams enjoyed the same surprise on finishing the race and in seventh place as did his friends i just wanted to be down as a starter in this fam ous race he told hegelman and was only going to stay up until 1 felt tired 1 went up with the leaders and after going about five miles felt good so kept on going the first thing i knew we were three-quarters through the race then i was de termined to finish on the other hand
