COLUMBUS, Ohio, April "a
Near freezing winds sweeping down
into Ohio Stadium sped shivering
athletes over the cinder tracks and
many records fell by the wayside at
the fourth annual Ohio relays here
today. Sixteen new meet records
were established and one old record
was tied.
The two special events, 120-yard
low and high hurdles, in which for
mer Capts. Werner and Kinsey, 1lli-
nois; Guthrie, Ohio State, and Brick
man, Chicago, competed, failed to
produce a new mark, however Wer-
ner carried off the honors in the
high sticks and Kinsey in the low
ones.
Western Conference universities
took off the bulk of the honors in
the university division. Michigan was
well to the fore, winning four events,
the 100-yard dash, 120.yard high hur-
dies, broad jump and javelin throw.
Michigan State, placed in the univer-
sity division because of it's unusually
strong team, copied high honors in
the triathlon, SS0-yard relay and
placed second in the pole vault.

of the meet when he took first place
in the pole vault, clearing the bar at
13 feet, new Ohio relay record, but
two inches lower than the /. G.. A.
A. A. A. mark. Pittsburgh also took
first place in the hammer throw
