he beat his opponent by almost a foot, making a new record for him- self of 19 feet GM inches. The medal for first place was of gold, and that for second of silver, both very fine medals. Edwin Boyd fea- tured well in the half-mile, but was unable to place, although he came in fourth. Burr did well in the running high jump, making a height of 5 feet 2 inches, while the winners of the event tied at 5 feet 4 inches. J. Boyd and Hollinshead did their best in the sprints, but were unable to qualify. Green, Austin and Cook were also entered in some of the hurdles and runs, but were unable to qualify. But if one consider the material with which Morrison had to compete, we can congratulate the boys on what they did do. On the following Wednesday, May 10, the Savanna team came to Morrison, and a dual meet took place. The result was favorable to Morrison by a score of 56 to 48. The day was not good in the least for a meet, as there was a strong north wind blowing continu- ously, which interferred with the jumping and running. Neverthe- less, the record for the pole vault was broken by Rick, who made a height of 9 feet 5 inches. Burr also broke the record for standing broad jump by a jump of 8 feet 8M inches. John Boyd won the 440-yard dash in 58 seconds, which broke the former record of the High School. There will probably be other meets this year, as one is now scheduled with Clinton for May 27, but the Annual goes to press too early to receive the reports. It is expected that more of the records will be broken.
