Itwa day for crushing records, six association three intercollegiate and two worlds rec ords being improved.
 In the 220-yard hurdle J L. Brewer o ' n0k vdIu bIoAC tu0 WOAAu ACSOlA " . AAtA of a second, and W. o. Hickok of Ysl
 threw the sixteen pound hammer 113 fee ] ! II iRches. thus breaking the worlds rec | ord made by him at Manhattan field las | year In the shot-putting contest Hickol made an exhibition throw of 42 feet, dis tancing the record established last season In the 40 yard run s. M. Merrill o
 Harvard lowered the intercollegiate recort
 and in the prettiest race ever witnessed s
 the Yale field, J. E. Morgan, Yale's pluck. little long distance runner, finished tW' seconds under the Ysle-Harvsrd sssoois | tion record. Hermann Thomas of Yal also established 8 new figure for the dus ) association by circltng the bar in the pol ! vault at 10 feet o4 inches.
 | The history of the day was one of acei dents and surprises. Three times the blu cards on the bulletin board opposite tn bleacheries gave Yale large lead, and tn sympathizsrs with the blue cheered onl, to hear their shouts die away in a Harvard echo as some of the Yale stars finished behind crimson rivals. The result hunl in a slender balance till the very last, whei Sheldon cleared 21 feet, 9} inches in tn broad jump and saved the day for Yale giving her the five points necessary to win ! while Thompson clinched the lead witl his second in the high jump. The afternoon reversed all traditions il track events by Hsrvsrd's taking the lest in the sprints, while Yale scored her point in tho field and runs. The surprise of tn, day came when Woodruff of Yale took tn, half-mtle run in hard fought race, finish ing in graceful form in ;693.

 Harvard took her innings at first in tho dsshes, and her sprinters easily passed Ysls's speedy men in the preliminary heats. Richards was in bad form owing tt weak knee.
 The prettiest race of the day was wher little Morgan took the lead in the second lap, and gradually broadened the distance before Cooiidge'a long strides till he fin ished in fine form.
 Iu the mile walk, however, Phillips fol lowed close at Bunnell's heels the last half Theall of Yale seemed to have third place but was disqualified for running, giving Drew of Harvard the last point. Allen succeeded in shutting out Captain Wheel wright in the pole vault.
