TWO INJURIES FOR TRACK TEAM IN ONE AFTERNOON

Two pulled tendons in the same afternoon's practice yesterday did much to dim the chances of the University track team, for its meet with Yale in the Stadium next Saturday.

The greatest blow came when R. G. Allen '26, former Freshman track captain, and now the University's chief hope in the 440 and furlong dashes, injured his leg in a practice 80 yards dash on the Stadium, straightaway at 3.30 o'clock yesterday afternoon.

Only Slight Hope of Recovery

Allen was immediately taken to his room in Randolph where he was treated by Dr. Richards and Mr. John Anderson, the University masseur. At a late hour last night there was still some doubt as to the seriousness of his injury. The possibility of his competing in the Yale meet are extremely slight although the coaches have not yet given up hope of his running against the Elis on Saturday. At all events, it seems probable that he will have recovered in time to compete in the Intercollegiates on May 30 and 31, and in the Olympic Trials on June 10.

Neiman Second Casualty.

The second casualty was that of David Neiman '24, a broad jumper, who pulled a tendon in the broad jump it, shortly after Allen had fallen on the track. Neiman took second in the broad jump at the M. I. T. meet and has improved his jumping in practice since. His loss will leave the burden of the broad jumping for the Crimson on the Shoulders of Hyatt and Quirk.

Allen had been counted on to run both the 220-yard and the 440-yards dashes against Yale on Saturday, and his loss will be a handicap to the team.
