Track Review of the Season In the spring of 1918, the prospects for a successful season were far below par. The viholesale enlistment of Cornell students took away practically all experienced track men I and greatly reduced the amount of available material. The discontinuation of the 1917 track season made it impossible for us to estimate our real strength. With the excep- tion of the Varsity Cross Country Team there were no MCU men in the University at the opening of the track season. In spite of these facts and in pursuance of the wartime policy adopted by the University, the carrying on of track athletics was pushed vigorously. A I great deal of the success of the team was due to the constant efforts of Captain Shackelton, who during the exceptionally cold winter months still kept the spirits of the men at a high pitch. Due to the financial situation the possibility of arranging any dual meets seemed doubtful, nevertheless with the Intercollegiates as the sole objective, the team worked together with remarkable spirit and inally came through with Cornell's fourth successive Intercollegiate victory. All honor to Ujacki' Nloakley, who took hold of an inexperienced squad and gradually molded it into a Well-rounded team. Even the most optimistic, little thought that Jack would be able to produce thirteen C stripe men from the material at hand. i Cornell first showed the strength of her spring track team in a dual meet with lVI.I.T. held in Ithaca on lVIay 4th. The final score was 82 to 44 in Cornell's favor. The feature of the meet was the sensational performance of Ivan C. Dresser, 7IQ, in the two-mile run. I-Ie covered the course in 9:22 2-5, thereby JOHN F. MOAKLEY beating the Intercollegiate record time made by S. I-Ioffmire, '16. llqi lil lj, ll ttr i ..
