The Indiana total was 52% points, while Notre Dame, in second place, had 47, and Purdue, in third, totaled 37. The Crimson speedsters, paced by Ivan Fuqua and Charles Hornbostel, who turned in two firsts each and added the final punch that established anew mile relay record, was too strong in the track events. Fuqua Speeds to Mark Fuqua clipped three-tenths of a second from the old quarter-mile record, doing the distance in 48 seconds flat. The old record of 48.3 seconds was made by Hermon Phillips, now Butler track coach, in 1927. The Crimson relay team, running in the order of Don Harpold, Wes Bicking, Hornbostel and Fuqua, clipped an even four seconds from their own record of 3:20.9, made last year. The new time was 3:16.9. Notre Dame runners remained close until the final lap, when Fuqua pulled away to win handily. Notre Dame supplied the other two new record performances, one by Don Elser and the other by George Meagher.

Lee Defeats Sandbach Duane Purvis of Purdue hurled the javelin 195 feet one inch to win that event and Swezy finished first in the 100-yard dash and Baker second to further boost Purdue’s total. A surprise came when Lee of De Pauw nosed out Sandbach in the 120-yard high hurdles, but the Purdue star redeemed himself by nosing out Mike Layden of Notre Dame in the 220-yard low hurdles. Murphy of Notre Dame gained a first in the high jump with a leap of 6 feet 3 1 /s inches. With little or no opposition to press him, Ray Sears of Butler, star distance runner, tried hard to set anew twomile record, but failed by five seconds. His time was 9:22.7.
