L t single afternoon, tho Quakers look

Jme Held to beat. In tho quarter mllo
ifct lll have to fight ngnlnst Wlllcox, of
Hirvard, and Captain Moore, of Trlnce
,(0n. In the half ho will have UltiRham,
f Harvard, to comenu wmi.
To beat these men will probably be a
Wrr iob than It was last year, because
Meredith's epponcnts will bo more
mature. No one knows it Bettor
than Meredith, nnd no win mnKo it a
point to be In tho best shape of his
fireer. since this Is his last year of lnter-
'colleglate competition. Moore, the Prince
ton leader, will be particularly dangerous.
Last year he was running tho distance
in 1 seconds when ho pulled a tendon. He
Hbu entirely recovered now, and Intends
iptclallze in tins event.
The point winners the Quakers have lost
are Bob Ferguson, winner ot tne nign

four high-class men. Tho most promising
) .Vewstetter, who tied ror lirst in tno

leap of 12 feet 10 inches. Newsletter looks
lite the boit pole vaultcr ever developed
t Pennsylvania. Ho was operated on for
wcndlcltls Inst spring, but he has slnco
recovered nnd has been doing light work
til fall. From last year's class comes
lOTirny Lcnnon, who has beaten 22 sec
ooda for the 220-yard dash and CO seconds
for the quarter mile. Ho Is small but wiry
m can run both events. Much, too, la
expected of Crano In tho high jump, be
ciom he hnd done C 02. A fourth man of
promise Is Bortollet, a broad Jumper,
with a record of 22 feet.
From th.e men who nearly scored last
rear there are half a dozen or more.
any one of whom may break Into tho
point-winning ranks. They Include Mlko
Dorfias, who wns fourth In the shot-put
tto years ago, but lost out last year oe
catue of a strained tendon. Dorlzna In
tends to make shot-putting his major
sport this winter and not devoto so
much time to wrestling, In which he Is
the. Intercollegiate heavyweight cham
pion. In proper condition Dorlzas ought
to be a serious contender for the clmm
plomhlp In this event. Another shot
pntter of some promise Is AVltherow. This
man put the leaden ball 40 feet on his
first day out this week and ought to
Improve rapidly this winter.

THOMAS ON FOUL
Norristown Bout Is Stopped by
Referee in Seventh
Round
Tho O'Kccfo-Thomas fued Is over.
Nover ngnln will Tommy O'Kcefo nnd
Charley Thomas, who put up four of tho
most sensational ring bouts over seen
In this city, como together In n 21-foot
clrclo. Their fifth meeting, scheduled for
15-rounds nt the Palace A. C, Norristown,
was brough to n climax In tho seventh
round, when Itcfcrce Frank O'Urlcn dis
annulled O'Kcefo nfter tho latter wns
guilty of butting.
Tho third man excused Tommy nt tho
conclusion of the sixth session for his
attempt to kick Thomns, believing
O'Keefo had lost his head In his
endeavor to finish their "grudge" de
cisively, but when a few seconds nfter tho
stnrt of tho next frame Tom continued
his unwarranted foul tactics, O'Urlcn
sent both boys to their respective corners.
Although tho fight fans, somo of whom
went to Norristown from Philadelphia to
witness what they expected to bo a great
battle, woro greatly disappointed ot tho
unlooked-for finish. Itefcrco O'Urlcn
made no mlstnkc In stopping the bout.
I'revlous to O'Kcefe'B attempt to kick
Thomas with his right foot, Tommy had
used his elbows and head In the clinches.
Thomas fought a ferocious battle. Ho
wanted to stop O'Keefo to prove his
superiority, but nt no time did Charley
attempt foul tactics. He stnrted the bout
by nosumtng the aggressive end of the
fight. Ho forced the mixing through
out, and although O'K'ccfe had the bet

even, Thomas was Just starling to forge
