...number of the Harvard team did very well. Converse and Willis each secured a first and a third in the hurdles, and Clerk won the quarter after a hard finish from Hunter of Yale. In the half mile, DuBois set the pace for the Harvard men, Behr and Boynton, who finished almost together, some distance ahead of Franchot of Yale. As was expected, Clark won the mile, in excellent time. White and Knowles, however, were both beaten out on the stretch, by Weston and Waldron of Yale. Knowles set a hard pace for the second lap and was well...
...quarter-mile race, E. Bell '04, one of the limit men, set the pace for the greater part of the distance, but was passed by Willis as they came into the home stretch. Willis won in 51 1-5s., with W. G. Clerk '01, a scratch man, second, and third, S. H. Bush '01, from the 10-yard mark...
