This is the last of three articles on the Quadrangular Track Meet.

When the gun goes off starting the one-mile race at the Garden tomorrow, what should turn out to be one of the best distance races ever seen in this meet will be under way. Johnny Meadon, the captain of the Big Red team, will be seeking to repeat the victory he gained last year; but he will be pushed hard by his teammate Wreck Welch and Alex Northrop of Harvard. Last year's winning time was 4:27.6, and a week ago Welch took the mile against Yale in 4:27.6, running without spikes on a bank-loss track. So this race tomorrow night should be won in a time close to 4:20. All the three leading contestants are capable of that time.

Meaden has been a general favorite to repeat this year; but at the moment it looks as if Harvard's best chance to win any event was right here, for Northrop has been coming along with the two Cornell stars. Al got a fifth in the Outdoor Intercollegiates last season after he had passed the peak of his form; and previously he had doubled to win the 800 and 1500 meter races against Yale. It was Northrop, too, who gave Gene Venzke such a terrific battle in the Heptagonal games at the Stadium last May. If he has approached any such form this year, and apparently he has, this should be a wonderful race.

Both Northrop and Meaden will probably double up in the meet, for they are both powerful runners, would both be able to run strong anchor legs on their respective two mile relay teams. If Northrop does this, it will strengthen the Crimson relay outfit so much that they might easily win the race. The two other contenders in this classic mile run who will be well back of the three leaders, are another Ithacan, Bob Boynton, and an Eli, Holderness. Woodland is Yale's best miler, but he will have his hands so full trying to win his two mile specialty against the Cornell lads that he couldn't possibly double up.

This two mile race is another in which a classic struggle will be going on. Here, unfortunately, Harvard is not so well represented. Jaakko Mikkola has had a whole string of crack long distance men in the past, and names like Pen Hallowell, Art Foote and Bob Playfair are still remembered. But this year the only two miler worth much is Henry Marcy, and he has been laid up with illness; although he will be in there tomorrow, he is far from the top of his form and will probably not pick up much better than a fourth place.

The three outstanding men in this race will be two Cornell lads and the galloping Yale captain, Wilbur Woodland. Cornell has two powerful entrants, Bill Bassett and Herb Cornell. The latter is a junior who won the outdoor IC4A championship in the 3000 meters last season. These two runners finished in a dead heat ahead of Woodland last week, but the Eli leader was just recovering from a bad cold then; it should be a different story tonight for we hear from New Haven that Woodland is back in good shape.

The first time Cornell and Woodland met was a year ago in this same meet in the Garden. The Eli was the winner and the raw young sophomore from Ithaca was fourth. But Cornell improved rapidly, and when they met in the Heptagonal games, Woodland barely beat him out; and he was not to be held off for long, for at Franklin Field two weeks later the Big Red ace was crowned IC4A champion, beatting off the Eli captain-elect in a furious finish. The rivalry between the two will be continued tomorrow night, and though most of the deposters are picking Cornell for first, Woodland for second and Bassett for third, thus judiciously splitting the points, some one could make a far worse bet than to lay his money on the Yale captain.

The mile relay race is one of the easiest in which to pick the winner; everyone says Cornell will take it hands down. This quartet hit 3 minutes 23.2 seconds in the B.A.A. meet, and with no middle distance events scheduled, all the runners will be fresh and ready to hit a new low time. Johnny Nevius, who broke the Yale-Cornell meet record last week with a 50.2 second leg will make up the team with Ham Hucker, brilliant veteran quarter-miler, Jim Pender, the sprinter and Walt Tatum.
