Penn First in Inter-College Athletic Meet Wini Three Out of Four Relay Events, Illinois Taking the Other Ramsdell the Star. PHILADELPHIA, ,May 1 Pennsylvania made a celan sweep of the national relay championship on Franklin field yesterday winning the one- two and four mile con tests. ' In many of the events on the day's pro gram It was the east against the wft ad although the western colleges were better represented than In former years, the eastern athletes took practically all the events. The exoeptlons were the one mile relay race for freshmen, won by Illinois, and the broad jump, captured by Wasson of Notre Dame. The star performer of the meet was Ramsdell, Pennsylvania's sprinter, form erly of Texas university. He won his two heats and the final In the 100-yard dash against some pf the best men now on the path and ran the last relay In the mile relay. His best time In the dash was 10 seconds and for the quarter mile In the one mile relay race, 49i seconds. Nine colleges lined up for the one mile relay champlonsh'p. It was a fine field of fast men, but It was quickly realized that nine men on tbe track at one time for a quarter mile relay were too many for rec ord .time. But, notwithstanding this, the race was run In fast time. Michigan fin ished second, followed by Cornell, Chicago, Frlnceton, Illinois, Masschussetts, Tech., Virginia and Darmouth, In the order named. Pennsylvania's victory in the two mile championship was largely due to the run ning of Church. Cornell led until the last relay when the Pennsylvanian took up the running. pushed ahead and won with several yards to spare. Tho four-mile relay did not furnish the sport that was expected. Pennsylvania was looked upon as the winner, but It was expected that Michigan and Cornell would make her hustle, but Pennsylvania's milers held the lead throughout and when Paull. the mile champion began the last mile there was no doubt as to the winner. Missouri and Notre Dame did not start In this race. The field nports. while exceptionally good, Bhowod no remarkable performances. Talbot, of Pennsylvania State college, won both the hammer and discus events and was second in the shot put. More than 20,000 persons saw the sports.

The Key to the Situation Bee Want Ads! The automobile which made and holds the transcontinental record is unequaled as a traveler upon American roads. Four years ago a Model H six-cylinder Franklin set the ocean-to-ocean record, and its time has never been equaled or approached. In fifteen days, two hours and twelve minutes it covered the distance from San Francisco to New York. That achievement stands, and has stood, a con stant challenge to all. The transcontinental run, in anything like record time, is the greatest of all automobile touring tests. It presents every known type of difficulty, from mud Ante tr fiifpn mountain ftraHes. from ttwIpr nf isnnd to rocky climbs. lhat the rranKiin mattes tne iastest touring time everywhere on American roads is due not only to the power of its engine but to the resiliency of con struction. Resiliency gives not only riding comfort and makes the automobile a smooth and easy traveler, but the more resilient an automobile is the stronger and lighter it can be. Franklin Model H is the highest example of six cylinder engineering. There is a peculiar charm in its six-cylinder smoothness and flexibility. It takes the hills as only a perfect six-cylinder can. It is ex ceptionally quiet. There is a complete absence of the jarring and jolting; you feel no vibration. It is difficult to realize that a big, powerful automobile can be guided and maneuvered with such freedom and ease. It rides like the finest carriage. It answers any tests to which it is put on hills or levels.
