The University fall handicap games were held on Soldiers Field yesterday afternoon. An encouraging feature was the unusually large number of entries. On the whole, the performances were satisfactory, but on account of the raw weather, the men were not at their best. Good records were made, however, in the half-mile, quarter-mile and mile. Except in the mile run, the finishes were fairly close. The pole vault was postponed and the broad jump left unfinished on account of darkness. Following is the summary:
100 yards dash, first heat--Won by V. Nixon '02, 6 yds.; second W. G. Clerk '01, scratch; third, H. Bullard '02, 5 yds. Time, 10 3-5s. Second heat--Won by R. W. Robbins '02, 5 yds.; second, I. G.
