RECORD SMASHED.
Kraenzlein Breaks
Worlds Record in
Broad Jump.
CAPT. ROCHE WINS HIS HEAT.
Preliminary Contests in the
New York Intercolleg-
late Meet.

concluded tomorrow. The track and
infield were in splendid order for good
performances, and the weather was
delightful From an athletic stand
point, everything that could be desired
was in evidence, and some of the finals
VIII be decided tomorrow, and if the
weather conditions prove as desirable
as they We're today, this years meeting
will prove a financial success.
One worlds record was smashed.
This was on the runnin broad jump,
the last event on the card, and A. c.
KraenZlein of Pennsylvania, who had
acquitted himself cleverly earlier in
the day by winning his high and low
hurdle trials, was the one who did the
trick. On his first jump the Pennsyl-
vanian covered % feet 101a inches, but
ecdpsed his own worlds record of "a
feet 3la inches on his second attempt
covering "a feet AZ inches, Hefdid "a
feet 9B inches Immediately afterwards,
but fell back sideways, and it was not
allowed
Kraenzlein was anxious to take adj
vantage of his full five trials, but
Trainer Mike Murphy advised him not
to, and he took his trainers advice.
There was some doubt as to whether
his jump was a worlds record, but
Father BiT' Curtis dispelled this by
asserting that Newbern's jump of "a
feet 6& inches, made at Mullinger, Ire
land was not accepted by the Irish or
English associations.
From his showing today, Kraenzlein
has the two hurdle events pretty well
secured. McCracken, the weight putter
and hammer 1hrower from Pennsylva-
mia, is also looked upon as a certain
winner, while Tewksberry, the sprint
er, should certainly capture the final of
the 100 yards dash. Quinlan Of Harvard
made as good time as Tewsberry, but
the latter was evidently in better
shape.
The interest in the quarter mile
event was considerably lessened by the
non-appearance Of Burke of Harvard
and Boardman of Yale. The former
won in the half mile, while Boardman
chose 220 yards dash trial, in which
he was beaten out at the tape by r. A.
Waite of Syracuse in % 3-5 seconds.
With Burke and Boardman out of
the quarter mile run, Long of Column
bia and Mulligan of Georgetown had
their heats handily. Pennsylvania GER
tainly has the best outlook for the
honors, and except something happens
to disable her representatives, the in
tercollegiate trophy will remain with
them for another year at least. The
games will be resumed at 2 o'clock to-
morrow afternoon.
