...inches. Soren, Atkinson and O. Harriman were left. All three cleared 5 feet 7 1/2 inches, Atkinson on his third trial. The bar was then put up to 5 feet 9 1/2 inches; Soren and Harriman failed three times.

He had already tired himself by pulling on his tug-of-war team, but nevertheless vaulted in magnificent form making 10 feet. Harriman, '83, Princeton, was second, stopping at 9 feet 6 inches. Soren failed at 8 feet and did not vault in his usual form. Toler's style of vaulting was very different from that of the other competitors. He did not seem to rely so much on his run and threw his body largely with his arms...
