wind that cramped muscles and kept
crowds shivering, university, college
and high school athletes displayed a
remarkable exhibition of record.
breaking performances at the fifth
annual University Of Kansas relays
here today.
A world record was equaled and
four meet records were broken.
A quartet of Notre Dame sprinters
in the quarter-mile relay, Riley,
Elder, Reilly and Della Maria, equaled
the world record of 41.6 seconds set
up by the New York Athletic Club In

Three meet records for 2.nlile
relays, university, college and high
school, were established.
Iowa State, pressed closely by the
Kansas Aggies, made the new record

they finished in minutes 53.9 seconds.
The previous record was z minutes
56.2 seconds, made by Iowa State
in 1925.
Haskell Institute Indian runners
bettered the meet record of 8 minutes
AZ seconds, set up by Occidental Col.
Iege of California in 1925 in the col
lege tWo-mile relay, when they won
in s minutes 33 seconds.
The Galesburg. ILL.,, High School
team of half-milers clipped seconds
from the meet record for the high
schcoI two-mile relay, winning the
event in minutes 20 seconds.
The previous record of s minutes 30
seconds was made in 1925 by Florence,
Kans., High School.
Rhynefort, Grinnell, hurled the dis
Gus 141 feet 4A inches, to set up a

a. new world record in the half
mile university relay was disallowed
when the University of Kansas team
of sprinters was disqualified. The
baton was dropped on the pass be-
tween Cooper and Grady, running
third and fourth, and picked up by
Cooper, instead of Grady, as the rules
provide. The Kansas runners also
cut into another lane.

PAIR OF NAVY CREWS
EASILY TAKE RACES
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
ANNAPOLIS, Md, April 23.-Navy's
varsity eight easily slipped away from
the Massachusetts, Tech crew here
this afternoon winning by three
lengths. The junior varsity matched
their performance, winning by ga
lengths.
Both races were rowed over the
Henley distance of mile and five
sixteenths Despite stiff northwest
breeze and rough water. Navy varsity
covered the distance In minutes and
30 seconds, while Tech trailed them at
minutes So seconds.
Getting away to a beautiful start,
both crews buried their blades to the
tune OF 40 strokes a minute, Navy
probably bit faster. Although good
form was shown by the Boston crew,
it soon became evident that the Mid
dies were more powerful. Before the
halfway point was reached, Big Tom
Eddy, Navy stroke, put his mates def
nitely in the lead by full length.
For few hundred yards Tech held
on grimly, only to lose ground when
Big Tom stepped the beat up little
faster. In that last quarter mile the
visitors stroke lost much of its
smoothness and slackened appreciably.
Navy juniors took their race with
as much ease as the varsity, covering
the course in minutes and 80 sec
onds against 6 minutes 81 seconds by
their opponents. Overcoming a small
initial lead, the Middies quickly dis.
tanced the Tech eight.

prepared to do battle with their sworn
enemies-the men they swore they
could beat during boasting sessions in
the club locker room.
The experiment of DR.. ]. T. Nc.
Clenahan, chairman of the greens
committee at Washington, of placing
wire netting just under the surface
of the water at the elventh hole has
proved an unqualified success. Balls
which would have been lost in the
mud at the bottom of the hazard in
other years now rest on the wire and
are easily recovered with dip net.
Indian Spring has installed an
obstacle golf" set on the practice
putting green at the club.
Three long hitters played the Wash.
ington course last week. Two OF them
were professionals, one an amateur.
All drove over the Hill at the eighth,
one ball ending within 10 yards of the
bunker designed to catch the second
shot. Yet not one of the trio secured
as low as on the hole. The niblick
shot of one went over the green, the
other two took 8 puts. Yet some
one said that golf is a certain game,
and that the professional game is too
mechanically perfect to watch.
1t reminds us Of the time Roland
Mackenzie hit what is probably the
longest bali ever hit on a local golf
course, at the seventh hole at Wash
ington. when his shot from the back
tee finished on the up-slope leading to
the green on this 434.yard affair. He
took a at the hole. With a follow
ing wind he tried to pitch dead, half
topped the ball, and when he got back
on the green took puts.
Bobby Jones, medal play champion
of two nations, has finally given in to
the insistence of syndicate proprietors
and agreed to write a series of stories
of golf. Needless to say the young
Atlantan will get bulky sum for his
literary efforts.
He turned down an offer for an
amount reaching well into five figures
two years ago for a series of stories
on the game, and 1t is not reasonable
now to believe he would accept much
less. The amount to be paid Jones for
writing on golf is said to be $4,000.
