Bicknell lost his first dual meet, 220, when he was heaten to the tape in a final drive by Heals of' Williams. However, the Terrier star avenged this defeat at the New Englands, two weeks later, by placing second ill the 220 final and Beals failed to show. The Terriers won their first and Ollly victory of the season Saturday, May 12. when they nosed out YVorcest.er Tech, in a meet replete with thrills hy the narrow margin of fit-BV! to GSM. Tl1is was the final meet of the year and the li. lf runners crashed through in fine style. Paul Potter and Newt Cougdon proved the B. lv. heroes hy capturing first and second places in the hammer throw, which was the last event on the program, to land the B. ll. colors on top. Morrill and Bicknell captured the 100 and Q20-yard dashes. Bicknell also finished in the runner-up position to hlorrill in the 100.

Captain Greg Hemmer and Franklin Leeds were the other first place winners for B. U. Hemmer let out a fine burst of speed in the last hundred yards to finish thirty yards ahead of the field in the mile run. Leeds caused an upset by winning the high hurdles. The next event on the program was the annuall'ennsylvania Relay Carnival at Philadelphia April 28. The Terriers were matched against Ohio VVesleyan, Johns Hopkins, Bowdoin, Savage, and Catholic University. The track was in deplorable condition a result of heavy rains and the various races were tests of ability to plow through the mud rather than speed. B. U. finished second in the Class C relay, bowing to Ohio VVesleyan. The Westerners presented a powerful quartet which ran a fine race and were well deserving of first prize. Bicknell led 03 for the Terriers and ran a beautiful race, grabbing the lead at the start to turn over a seven-yard ad- vantage to Bus Chamberlain. Chamberlain was forced to re- linquish the lead to the Ohio number two man who finished twelve yards in front. Ronnie Harmon was the third Terrier to hit the watery trail. He found the going wet but stayed even with his rival for half the distance. He lost out in the final stretch and finished twenty-five yards in the rear. Norm George, who gave up baseball for the day, was the anchor man. He ran a great race and made up fifteen yards of the distance. COACH Bifnxs A set of intra-mural games were the feature events of the annual Field Day held at Riverside, May 3. In spite of the slow track, the races were for tl1e most part close and interesting. All the events were open handicaps. Morrill, running true to form, captured the 100-yard dash finishing a scant two feet ahead of Bicknell. The greatest. upset of the day occurred i11 the 220 when Bill Chesley, with a five-yard handicap, led Bicknell to the tape by the narrow margin of one yard. George, running from scratch, overtook a large field to win the 440. Kenneth Chadwell stepped away from the field in the 880 to win by ten yards from Chamberlain and Lee Campbell, who finished second and third respectively. Captain Hemmer won the mile and Stuart T arr the two mile run. VVith first places in all but two events, the 100-yard dash and the high jump, the strong Williams College track team snowed B. U. under a 97-38 score at Wil- liamstown, May 5. This was the worst showing made by the Terriers in two years. It also was the first meet, in that length of time, in which B. U. was outscored in the running events. Ernie lNIorrill and Al Spitzer were the only first place winners for B. U. lVIorrill won the century and Spitzer captured the jump-off for first place from Hank Garritty, a teammate. 242 V , . . - Q-...W .earvfa f-s.1.w.wxwm:mf u gf 9 ' . -s.. , J' . he . .1C...w.

George once more left the baseball team to cast his lot with the track team for this meet and won his heat in the 4-40, making the fastest time of the day. Garritty was one of the eight qualifiers for the high jump final. Morrill, after a poor start, let out a burst of speed in the last fifty yards, to finish in third place behind Quinn and Daley, the Holy Cross fliers in the 100-yard final. Bicknell ran a beautiful race in the Q20 final, finishing in second place, a step behind Quinn. Incidentally, Quinn won the I. C. A. A. A. A. 100-yard dash at the Stadium two weeks later. He also was a member of Uncle Samis Olympic team. George got caught in the ruck in the 440 and was shut out in a race which was won in time only a fifth of a second faster than his heat of the day before. Garritty was forced out of the high jump at 5 feet 10 inches. The 19Q9 winter track campaign got underway January 26 at the new Boston Garden. Coach Burns entered a full team in the Knights of Columbus meet. The relay team made an auspicious debut by taking the Colby College four into camp by a half lap. Captain Bicknell, 1929 leader, ran number one berth. He opened a five space which was increased by Tarr and Harmon. George, anchor man, started out with a 50-yard lead wl1icl1 he increased to 75. Capt. Bicknell was the only Terrier to fare well in the open events. The B. U. leader won his trial and semi-final heats in the 50-yard dash but was just nosed out of third place in the final. He had the satisfaction, however, of beating his old team- mate, Ernie hforrill in the trial heat. The annual B. A. A. games held at the Boston Arena February 2 was the next meet in line. The relay team again ran away with its race over the mile route, this time showing the way to Brown University. Capt. Bicknell led off for the Terriers. He was unfortunate enough to lose his footing and fall at the first bank but picked himself up and overtook his Brown rival to win his leg by 10 yards. Tarr was the second Terrier to step out. He ran a strong race to increase the lead to Q0 yards. Harmon held his own, and the Brown number three man stumbled while passing the baton, allowing George to start out on the final leg for B. U. with a 30-yard lead. George turned in a 53-second quarter to finish fifty yards to the good. Linwood Pattee brought the crowd to its feet in the 40-yard invitation dash by leading Percy Williams of Canada, Olympic sprint champion and ultimate winner of the B. A. A. dash, to tl1e tape in the semi-final. Pattee got away poorly in the final and did not place. The time of the final was the same as Pattee's epochal semi- final heat. Coach Burns took the relay team to New York February 9, to compete in the Millrose A. A. games at lifadison Square Garden. Prior to leaving for New York, it was announced that B. lf. would run in a three cornered race with Johns Hopkins and Haverford, but after arriving at the scene of the meet, the Terriers found them- selves pitted against New Hampshire, Rutgers, and Lafayette. Rutgers won the lfiddle Atlantic mile title at the Penn Relays last April and New Hampshire carried off first prize in the Class B championships at the same meet, so B. U. was up against a stiff proposition. , 4.-av.. 244 5. l uf-Q, .45-L ,gif f f i tf1i2 m--mff f '
