NINE JOLTS NORTHEASTERN; HARVARD RUNNERS TRIUMPH

MacKinnon, Fisher Score Nine Apiece

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The point winning due of Captain Don MacKinnon and Willo Fisher led the Crimson trackmen to a convincing victory over B. U., Northeastern, and Holy Cross in Saturday's informal quadrangular meet in Harvard Stadium.

MacKinnon and Fisher contributed eight points apiece to the Mikkolamen's 89 point total with a first and a second for each. Northeastern's Huskies were second with 46 and Holy Cross and B. U. trailed with 22 and three points respectively.

High scoring honors for the day went to Walt Crowley and Joe Lavin of Northeastern and H. C.'s Chet Lakowski with ten apiece. Crowley took the 880 and the mile while his teammate chalked up his points on a first in the high jump a place in the broad, and a show in the low hurdles. Lakowski triumphed in the shot and discus.

Sweep Two Mile, Vault

Harvard swept the two mile and the pole vault to account for 22 of their total. Tim Coggeshall led teammates Dick Bryan, Jim Foley and Archie Lyon, in that order, to the tape in the former, while Alex Rogerson took the latter with an 11 ft., 6 in. effort, nosing out Ward Slingerland and Dan Tosteson.

MacKinnon scored a win in the curtainraiser, the 120 high hurdles and took a second in the 120 lows for his nine. Fisher got his usual first in the hammer and followed Lakowski in the discus.

A further contribution to the Crimson cause came from Walt Chubb, Max Pincus, and Al Skinner, who ended one-two-three in the 440 in the slow time of 53.4. Other Harvard firsts came from Tom Holyoke in the broad jump and Wade Johnson, who tied for first in the 220.
