GOURDIN IS CRIMSON STAR

PENNSYLVANIA WINS MEET

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Scoring 11 points in the I. C. A. A. A. A. meet on Saturday, the University track team secured seventh place, seconds in the century dash and the broad-jump by E. O. Gourdin '21, and a tie for second in the pole-vault by R. W. Harwood '20, accounting for the Crimson total. Gourdin, with a leap of 23 feet 7 1-4 inches, broke the Harvard record, set last year by H. C. Flower '19, who jumped 23 feet 3 inches, and was only inches behind R. E. Brown of Princeton in the 100. Harwood cleared the bar at 12 feet 6 inches below the winner, E. E. Myers of Dartmouth. Captain D. F. O'Connell '21 did not compete in the mile because of his sprained ankle, and the other University entrants failed to place.

Pennsylvania was victorious in the meet with a total of 30 1-2 as against 29 for Princeton. Yale was in eleventh place with but 5 1-2 points, R. W. Landon capturing the high-jump and W. W. Webber tieing for fifth place in the pole-vault. Earl J. Thomson, wearing the Dartmouth colors, shattered the world's record in the 120-yard high-hurdles, flying over the barriers in 14 2-5 seconds.
