Athletics

In track and field athletics 1922 was
not exceptional for record breaking per-
formances. Only fifteen new standards
were established in A. A. u. competition
and few more for intercollegiate and
scholastic. Only a few OF the marks
were made at standard distances. That
the officials are growing skeptical about
any startling performances Is indicated
I'm the dozen applications for records that
were denied, including the seven credited
TO Charles w. Paddock.
A feature of the year was the organi-
zation of women's athletics on sound
basis The National Women's Track
Athletic Association came into exist
ence this fall. and the A. A. U. assumed
control A handful of American girls
competed with marked success In set
of international games In France. De-
spite the fact that until recently America
has been limited to schools and colleges
IN the selection of its women athletes,
American girls are credited with twenty
one of the forty-nine worlds records for
women recognized a month ago by the
International Sports Federation.
California retained the intercollegiate
title. National A. A. U. honors re-
turned to the East. Individual cham
pionships also rested. to great extent
with the Eastern representatives. though
the Middle West afforded the strongest
opposition. The New York Athletic CLUB
won both the senior outdoor and indoor
championships.
The leading sprinters appeared in Bob

best long distance runner. William Plant
