...MacKinnon cleared the high hurdles in fine form to take a fourth in the finals. The Freshman was state champion in the 220 low hurdles and shows promise of breaking his six second time if he can shoot from the starting mark faster. Don Donahne didn't seem to be near top form; although he won his heat in six flat, his start was slow, and he stopped on all three hurdles to lose the semi-finals in a close finish...
...capacity crowd of nearly 1,000 had almost shouted itself hoarse before the second event began, the reason being the harrowing, seesaw, 300-yard medley relay tie between Harvard's Bosworth, Waldron, and Stowell and Dartmouth's O'Mara, Potter, and Wilhelmy. The time was 3:04.2, a new Dartmouth record...
Every Dartmouth hope for victory was crushed when the Ulenmen took every first and second place in the next four events, finally assuring a Harvard victory with Bosworth's win in the 150-yard dorsal race in 1:40.7, his best time. The overwhelming display of power was featured by Captain Rick Cutler's 2:17.8 first in the furlong, Davey (Club) Stearns' triumph in the 50, George Dana's upset victory in the dive with 103.53 points, and Jim Curwen's a 55.6 100 free style...
Frannie Powers garnered seconds in both the 220 and 100, Curwen followed Stearns in the 50, and Chet Sagenkahn was only two points behind Dana, leaving Indian Captain Paul Dyer in third place with 98.63 points. Cutler came back later with the intention of snatching the Dartmouth pool record in the 440, held by Yale's Hoyt, and succeeded with the commendable clocking of 4:59.4, much to the satisfaction of Coach UlcnMax Kraus and Roger Willcox finished second and third behind Dartmouth's Potter in the breastroke, and then a reserve Crimson 400-yard relay team dropped the final...
...iron-man stunt reminiscent of Charlie Hutter's 100-220-440 feat against Yale in 1937. Curwen was under orders to loaf as much as possible in the first two events and in the final contest his teammates labored to hand him at least a two second margin over his opponent...
