Yardling Track Team Loses to Blues, 80-60

Despite a tremendous effort by Jed Fitzgerald, the Yardling track team lost to Yale, 80 to 60 Saturday. Fitzgerald outran Eli Bill Bachrach to win the mile in 4:23.8, only .3 seconds off Ed Martin's year-old meet record. An hour later, he outran the same opponent to win the two-mile in 9:35.8, and break the meet record by nine seconds.

Tom Blodgett was the other Yardling double winner, taking the broad jump and the high hurdles. He also finished second in the javelin and tied for third in the pole vault.
