formance.
/ Beck's record-breaking performance in
the shot put may also be mentioned when
he beat his previous mark by ,5i2 inches.
New marks were set in the pole vault in
both Eastern and Western collegiate as
sociations, u. S. Horton of Princeton clear
ing IL feet Z inches, while II. T. Chapman
Of Drake cleared IL feet 6la inches. In both
instances the previous records were beaten
by half an inch. 1t may be mentioned mere
that Henry Jackson broke the Missouri
record a week ago by clearing l32 inches in
competition.

something Of a surprise by defeating Plaw.

and the Western intercollegiate record Al l5

4 comparison of the performances in the
Eastern meet with these of the Western
meet is interesting. As might be expected,
the majority of the marks made at New
York were better than those made on
Marshall Field. but there we're three note
worthy exceptions TO this rule besides sew
eral events in which the Western time was
very pearly as good as the Eastern;

same event at New York. Maloney'a time

intercollegiate and collegiate record made

Again. in 1880, better time was made
on Marshall Field than on the Berkley
track. Breitkrutz OF Wisconsin beat the
time of Taylor of Amherst one-ffth of =
second. However, BreitkrutZ's time is no
where near the record made and still
held by Fitzpatrick. the Wisconsin coach.
In the broad jump also the performance
on Marshall Field was ahead OF the work
done in the East. In this event the East
erners were surprisingly weak. falling to
come within two feet of the record.
In regard to the meet on Marshall Field
1t was generally admitted that Michigan
was fortunate to get away with first place.
Chicago's hard luck in having Moioney dis
abled so he could not start in the go hur-
dies, which II seems certain he would have
won, and in having Blair set back in the
1G1-yard dash. gave the Wolverines the
meet. Had Moloney won the 300 hurdles
and Blair the 100. Chicago and Michigan
would have been tied for first place. with
32 points each.
However. Michigan certainly has the hest
right to the credit of victory, even If Chi

in the West. It has good men for every
event. and. although they might be beaten
in n dual meet. as they were. when ii comes
to a big meet they look best because Of
their ability to pull out seconds and thirds.

Duffy's record of :O9 3-5. Four ~well-known
timers held watches on the event and one
of these. c. G. Hughes, caught the tine as
:O9 %. The others caught it as :G9 80. So
the error. II any, was on the conservative
side.
Or question which arose after the an
nouncement Of time was a discussion over
the ACCESSIBILITY of splitting the second
finer on watches held for the 100 yards. 1t
is pointed out that If the watches could be
split TO tenths Of a second finer distinctions
could be drawn in time and a better idea Of
performance could be obtained.
For the last ten years the record for the
~1GJ-yaTd dash has stood at :09 4-5 seconds,
and it remained for a man to cut a fifth of
a second off before 1t was recorded. 1t has
often been said that finely-split watches
would have shown that Barney Wefers

tually attained a fifth of a second less. With
