PHILLIPS EXETER DEFEATED 1919 TRACK TEAM 62 TO 48

Preparatory School Stars Made Remarkable Performances.--Flower Broke Broad-Jump Record.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The Freshman track team lost to Phillips Exeter Academy 63 to 45, Saturday afternoon. The defeat came as a surprise, for the Freshman team had beaten Andover easily last week and appeared to have strength where Exeter was weakest. Several upsets, however, occurred which robbed the 1919 team of many points. Remarkable performances were registered in the 880-yard and one-mile runs and the broad and high jumps. The Freshman athletes took all three places in the hammer-throw, while H. C. Flower, Jr., '19 broke the Freshman record for the broad-jump by 4 inches.
