...University fall handicap games were held on Soldiers Field yesterday afternoon. An encouraging feature was the unusually large number of entries. On the whole, the performances were satisfactory, but on account of the raw weather, the men were not at their best. Good records were made, however, in the half-mile, quarter-mile and mile. Except in the mile run, the finishes were fairly close. The pole vault was postponed and the broad jump left unfinished on account of darkness. Following is the summary...
...upon is counterbalanced by the lack of a course. In place of the old practice links on the Adams estate the players are now obliged to join the Oakley Club, the only course in easy reach of College.

The men are becoming accustomed to the outdoor work and the fielding on Friday was a great improvement over that in the cage, although the batting showed a slight falling off. There was a marked tendency to forget the lessons learned in the cage and a consequent difficulty with curved...
