Losing Heavily in Track Events. STAMFORD BRIDGE, Tuly 8- The combined Oxford-Cambridge track and | field team today won the international | meet from Yale and Harvard, winning seven first places to five for the Amer icans. The British college stars clinched the meet when V. P. Brown of Oxford captured the $%0-yard run, giving the Englishmen their seventh victo Triumph Brings Surprise. Their triumph was a distinct sur prise, as the Americans had entered the meet 2-to-1 favorites. Upsets in the track events, in which the Britons captured six out of eight contests, cost the Americans their chances of vic tory. The Harvard-Yale squad did its hest work in the field events, taking three ont of four foatures, but their only rtories on the track were scored by Al Miller of Harvard in the 100-yard dash apd “Mac” Smith of Yale in the thzee-mile run Three records for the (nternal college meat between these wores ghattared and o fanrth whon Sabin Carr of Yale, the world record holder, won with a mark of 13 feet. New Records Established. Records tumbled in both hurdle events when G. C. Weightman-Smith of Cambridge raced over th timbers in 15 1-10 seconds, after which Lord David Burghley, the Cambridge captain, won thd 220.vard low hurdle contest, in 24 7-10 seconds. Charlie Pratt of Harvard broke the shotput record, with a heave of 44 feet § inches. Although his vault only equaled his own winning mark in the 1825 meet in the United States, Carr's perform- ance broke the British pole vault re ord of 12 feet 9 inches. Lord Burghley and J. W. J. Rinkel hoth of Cambridge, were the individ- ual stars of the meet. The titled British hurdler, besides winning the low hurdles, finished second in the high hurdles and performed an iron man stunt by running in mile and finishing second. showed his heels to American by eapturing both the 22 rd races.
