DISPUTE STARTS ON
NEW WATER RECORDS

Chicago, Aug. 6.-Athletic club officials
were discussing to-day the possibility
of time made yesterday in swimming
events standing as records. At the out
door contests Of the Central A. A. u.
meet held under the auspices OF the
Chicago Yacht Club the Illinois A. c.
relay team won the 400-yard race hand
lily, and then a fifth swimmer was sent
away 70 hang up a mark for 500 yards.
The time for the 500 yards was 1904 80.
As a similar contest had not been held
before in open water, it was believed
this would stand as record. In the
l00-ysrd breast stroke vent Michael
McDermott, Of the Illinois A. C., made
tn. distance in 1918 is. the best previ-
Gus mark being l:l6 2-5. AS McDer-
mott was helped by the wind and water,
athletic club officials expressed doubt
to-day whether the time would be al
lowed as a record.
