M. J. Finlayson '32 won the handicap weight throw yesterday afternoon bringing to a close fall track activities. The event was open to all members of the University, but due to the nearness of the Christmas recess, only a few men participated. The outstanding feature of the event, however, was the showing of the Freshman material which had its first opportunity to demonstrate its worth in competition.
Finlayson, a member of the Freshman football team, threw the 35 pound weight a distance of 41 feet, 4 inches including a handicap of 20 inches. Second place was won by H. L. Movius '30 with a throw of 39 feet, 4 inches including a 24 inch handicap, while A. H. Crimmens '32 placed third with a heave of 39 feet including a 4 foot handicap.
