FRESHMAN GAMES.

Small Number of Entries and Poor Showing in Yesterday's Meet.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The annual Freshman fall track meeting was held on Holmes Field yesterday afternoon. The games on the whole were very uninteresting owing to the small number of entries and the slow time in which all the events were won. There were less entries than ever before in the Freshman games. There were no contestants in the 120 yds. and 220 yds. hurdles, the shot put, and hammer throw; and only two men in the high jump, pole vault, and 220 yds. dash. T. E. Burke, W. A. Applegate, A. W. Robinson and E. W. Mills did the best work. Burke easily won the 440 yds. and 880 yds. runs; Applegate got a good second in the quarter mile; Robinson and Mills won the 100 yds. dash and the mile run respectively.

The cup which was presented by G. Hay '88, for the captain of the winning section was won by J. B. Rorer '99, captain of the Oxford street division, which scored thirty points. The Holyoke street section was second with a total of nine points.
