HARVARD SURE OF JAVELIN AND DISCUS

With the race between the two captains, Johnny Morse and Karl Warner, looming as the outstanding contest in the Yale meet Saturday, the dope sheets seem to threw the advantage to the Eli team. However, since the margin is a matter of only two or three points, the meet may be termed a toss-up.

If Jack Morse should win the 400 and his team-mates are fairly confident, it will be one of the most important victories won by the Crimson in recent years. Last year Warner won in 48 sec. from Morse. His best time this year was 48.4 sec. against Princeton. Morse has made 48.6 sec. which puts him well in the running.

Spoffard is conceded a first in the dashes but Eddie Calvin may overturn the predictions here. Tony Bliss is expected to win out in the 800 and Estabrook to place. Scheu and Alf Hallowell will capture second and third in the 1600 and Bob Playfair looks a sure go in the 3200. The dashes will be divided between Hayes and Dunbar. The resulting computations make the score break even, but it is easy to see that a single upset will turn the tide. For instance in the informal time trials yesterday afternoon, an excellent showing was made in the 100.

The discus and javelin seem assured the Crimson with Wahigren, Johnson, Dean, Healey and Millard as entries. On the other hand Yale will sweep the pole vault and the high jump. In the hammer Holcombe has the edge on Cahners and in the shot put the situation is reversed with Dean favored to outdistance Forman.
