In the games held by the Worcester Athletic Club Saturday night, the most exciting event was the team race between the Worcester Polytechnic and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology which was won by Worcester. The race was very close and both the finishing men fell exhausted at the end of the race, Gallagher of Worcester falling against the tape, and Batchelder of Boston falling just before reaching it.
Only two Harvard men won places. In the half mile run C. A. Blake '91, with a handicap of 25 yards won second place. S. A. Coombs, B.A.A. with 18 yards handicap, won first. In the running high jump G. C. Chaney, '94, with a handicap of 2 1-2 inches, won first place. His actual jump was 5 feet 6 inches.
The officers of the meeting were Eugene E. Merrill, judge of walking. W. F. Donovan, starter, and W. L. Thompson, '93, referee.
