Freshman Games.

It was unfortunate for the management of the freshman games that the class football championship was being decided at precisely the same hour. As a result of this conflict the attendance was exceedingly small and the interest very slight Very few freshmen turned out, and the class as a whole deserves censure for its lack of support. The entries were larger than last year, but a great nunber of the competitors failed to appear. The mile walk, and mile run had to be abandoned, as only one man was on hand in the former event, while none whatevey came out in the former. Most of the shot and hammer men were playing football, and these event were postponed until today.

The games opened with the team race which proved to be the drawing card. The victory of '93 was well earned and Hubbell deserves much of the credit. The end of the first lap resulted with S. M. Merrill '94, leading, W. F. Garcelon, L. S. second, W. L. Thompson '93 third, and F. A. Pillsbury '95, fourth. In the second lap, J. O. Nichols L. S. spurted and finished first, E. B. Hill '94, second, C. E. Hutchinson '93 third, and D. W. Fenton '95 fourth. The third quarter ended with E. W. Pinkham, L. S., leading by five yards, H. F. Kent '93, second, H. M. Wheelwright '94, third, and N. H. White '95, fourth. On the last lap. J. Corbin, Gr., started out with a big lead, closely followed by C. G. Hubbell, who caught up in the last few strides and won in 3 min. 32 4-5 sec., five seconds slower than the time made last spring. J. Corbin was second, H. C. Lakin '94, third, and N. W. Bingham Jr. '95, fourth.
