Administering one of the worst defeats ever given a track team in Ithaca, Cornell triumphed over the University athletes Saturday by the score of 83 to 34. Cornell presented one of the best all-round track teams that has been developed there, allowing the University but 4 firsts, 4 seconds, and 2 thirds, and taking all places in the high and low hurdles, 2-mile run, shot-put, and hammer-throw. There were no intercollegiate records broken, but all the performances were uniformly good. E. A. Teschner '17, by taking the 100-yard dash in 10 seconds flat, established a new record for that particular Cornell track. He also won the 220-yard dash, although pressed hard in both by Van Winkle of Cornell.
W. Willcox, Jr., '17 ran a pretty race in the quarter and won handily, while Captain W. J. Bingham '16 and A. Biddle '16 both did excellent work in the half-mile. The latter passed a Cornell runner on the back stretch and secured second place. Bingham's time of 1 minute 54 2-5 seconds is within one second of the Intercollegiate record.
The University milers were unable to hold Windnagle who was clocked in 4 minutes 23 4-5 seconds. R. D. Campbell '17 was third.
The two-mile race was won by Potter. R. H. Davison '17 stumbled and fell in the fifth lap in this race. But although he got up and continued, he was unable to place.
The University was extremely weak in the hurdles and the field event. G. G. Haydock '16, second in the pole vault, J. O. Johnstone '16, second in the high-jump, and H. W. Minot '17, second in the broad-jump, were the only places won by the University in these events. The summary:
