MILLER FOLLOWS LINDMUTH NEW YORK A.C. SPRINTS

University Runners Dog Heels of Yale and Maryland in Mile Race-- Carr Tops World in Pole Vault

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

An unheralded Georgetown freshman came from behind to defeat A.H. Miller '27, star University sprinter, in the 60 yard dash at the games of the New York Athletic Club in Madison Square Garden last night.

Karl Lindmuth, the surprise of the evening, led the Crimson heavyweight by a full yard when the broke the tape. Behind Miller came McAllister, the "flying cop", and other sprinters whom Miller has repeatedly outrun this season. The distance was covered in 6 3-5 seconds.

The hurdle event went to Montgomery Wells of Dartmouth, who equalled the world's record at 60 yards in seven and three fifths seconds. J.S. Ballantyne '27, the University's lone entry, failed to place. Campbell of Yale ran second, and Frank of Pennsylvania third. Two weeks ago, at the knights of Columbus meet in Mechanics Building, Wells smashed the record in the 45 yard event.

Relay Team Gets Third

The relay team, running a mile race against Yale and Maryland, was only able to get third place. The team, composed of Captain E.C. Haggerty '27, A.H.O'Neil '28, W.C. Peet '28 and R.N., Ryan '28, put up a hard battle, but found the competition too fast. Maryland won the event in three minutes twenty-eight and four fifths seconds.

Sabin Carr, brilliant Yale pole-vaulter, broke his newly-established record of the B.A.A. meet, by clearing the bar at thirteen feet nine and one quarter inches. Vaulting with perfect form and ease, Carr cleared each height and left his previous world record below him in a wonderful exhibition.
