FRESHMEN LOSE TO EXETER

The Freshman track team lost their first meet of the season to Exeter on Saturday by a score of 66 2-3 points to 40 1-3. The most exciting race was the 440-yard dash, in which W. Willcox, Jr., of the 1917 team equalled the world's interscholastic record of 48 4-5 seconds made by J. E. Meredith, now of Pennsylvania, when he was at Mercersburg Academy. Willcox let M. B. Orr, the interscholastic champion, lead the race for the first 220 yards, and then suddenly passed the latter by a beautiful burst of speed. From then on Orr repeatedly tried to overtake Willcox, but the latter proved the better, finishing about two yards ahead of the Exeter man.

Five other first places were secured by the Freshman team, R. W. Stanley securing two of these in the 220-yard low hurdles and broad jump. The others went to E. A. Teschner in the 220-yard dash, R. S. Cook in the one-mile run, and M. Noble in the high jump.

The results of the meet show an extraordinary weakness in second string men, especially in the field events in which only 1-3 of a point was secured outside of two first places.
