INTERCOLLEGIATE GAMES.

Four Intercollegiate Records Broken Saturday.

The Intercollegiate Games at New York, Saturday, were a disappointment to Harvard. To those who had followed the work of the various college teams, however, the surprise was that Harvard only made 14 points, not that she only took third place. The quarter mile run, in which a month ago Harvard seemed to be very strong, was most disappointing. Not a single Harvard man reached the finals.

The track was in good condition, fast times were made, and the meeting was one of the best meetings the I. C. A. A. A. A. has ever held. Five intercollegiate records were broken; in the 100 yards and the 220 yards dashes, in the pole vault, the running high jump and the half mile run.

Wefers of Georgetown University was by far the best individual performer. He made the new intercollegiate record in the 100 yards dash and broke all records, both amateur and professional, in the 220 yards dash. This new world's record is 22 1-5 s. His two firsts were the only points won by Georgetown.

Hollister won the half-mile run easily and lowered the former intercollegiate record of 1m. 57 1-5s., made by W. C. Dohm in 1890, by two-fifths of a second. He took the lead at the start and gradually increased it to the finish. Hinckley, of Yale, who was second, finished many yards behind.

Harvard's only other first was taken by Captain Bremer, who won in the low hurdles easily in 25s. The other point winners for Harvard were Mason, second in the running broad jump, distance 21 ft. 8 1-2 in.; Grant, third in the mile run, and Denholm third in the 220 yards dash. Summary:
