A resume of Gregg's work shows that in the 11 rounds he has hurled, in five games, he has yielded eight hits, all singles, and some of them scratchy; has issued but four free tickets, and fanned a total of eight.

A new American mark and eight records for the Drake games were established. The Builer College mediey team smashed the record for the event by covering the distance in 7:43 9.10, beating the outdoor mark of 7:44 2.5 hung up by the Irish-American A. C. competing in Boston in July, 1908. The Butler team. running 440, 220, 880 yards and a mile, was composed of Kilgore, Gray, Caraway and Phil- lips, running in the order named. Wabash also beat the former record in pushing the Butler quartetfor victory, running the distance in 7:45. Richardeon of Missourl smashed the Drake mark for the discus with a heave of 140 feet 10% inches, while Schwartze, the giant weight thrower from Wisconsin, cracked the record for the shotput, tossing Is 45 feet 6% inches Towa State Teachers' College relay team lowered the Drake mark for the half-mile event, stepping it in 1:33 4.10 University of Kansas relay team ran the quarter mile relay in 0:42 510, beating out Butler and Notre Dame.

SAN FRANCISCO, April 25.—Two world records were smashed At the National Amateur Athletic Union swimming meet here vesterday, and the Illinois Athletic Club swung into a lead in the scoring, with the Brook- Iyn Central Y. M. C. A. a close second. Johnny Weissmuller, aquatic flash of the Illinois A. C., broke his own record for the 100-yard free style swim, winning the event in 52 1.5 sec- onds. Weissmuller's best previous time for the distance was 52 3-5. ‘Walter Spence of the Brooklyn Cen- tral Y. M. C. A. won the 220-yard breast stroke in 2 minutes 514.5 sec- onds, a new record. Robert Skelton, 1llinois, finished second. Iliinois A. C. has 12 points and Brooklyn Central Y. M. C. A. has 10. Svenska Simforbundet of Sweden, represented by Arne Borg, the cham- plon middle distance swimmer, was next with 8, through his victory in the 220-yard free style and second place {n the mediey. Walter Laufer, the young sprint star of the Cincinnati Y. M. C. A., fin- ished second in the 100-yard dash and put his organization in fourth place with a score of 6. San Francisco Olympic Club stood fifth with 5 points. Single points had been made by the Chicago Athletic Association, the Hui Nalu Club of Hawali, Neptune Beach of Alameda, Calif., and Venice (Calif.) Plunge Association.

Running with splendid judgment, though, the Blue and Gray star did not seem to gain an inch until the curve just before the last straightaway in the second lap. Then he started hia sprint and soon pulled up to the tiring Holy Cross man. It was In the stretch that Marsters went away to a good lead and by his own brilliant performance gave his team a new world record of 3:28 in the event. Marsters' time of 1 minute 55 seconds for his half was the sams as the intercolleglate record held by the great Ted Meredith. However. Marsters will get no credit for that mark. The world record for the half mile s held hy Meredith, made at Franklin Field in 1916. Meredith's time was 1 minute 5215 seconds. Plansky's victory in the decathlon was somewhat of a surprise, as he had been picked for second place, with his teammate Norton, former Kansas star. to win. Norton, however, tired toward the end of the competition and fell down badly in the last two events Here are Plansky’s performances in the decathlon, quite sufficient for a day’s work for an athlete: Tied for first place in the 108 meters in 113-5 seconds. Second place in the broad jump, with a distance of 21 feet 3'% inches. First In the shotput, with a heave of 44 feet 2 inches. Tied for sixth place in the high Jump, with 5 feet 4 inches. Second In the 400-meter run, with time of 5215 second: Third in the 110-meter hurdles, in 17 1-5 seconds. #econd in the discus throw, with aheave of 113 feet 23; inches. Pled for second in the pole vault, with a jump of 10 feet 6 inches. Won the javelin, with a hurl of 173 feet 9% Inches. Second in the 1.500-meters run, with a time of 5 minutes 21 sec- onds.

With the exception of the hurdles, discus throw, the-high jump and the 1500-meter run, each performance represents a rather £ood feat by an individual athlete in a dual meet, 1In a great many dual meets Planisky's marks for the broad jump. the dashes, the shotput and the jave- lin are not equaled Sturtridge, a De Pauw athlete, sur- prised everybody with his excellent showing. The other three entrants were left far behind in the scoring. Princeton ran the 440-yard relay race in time which equals the record for the distance, if the mark set by the Kansas team a few days ago is not ac- cepted. The Tigers won the event in 42 2.5 seconds. Mercersburg broke the interscholastic record for the quarter mile relay, doing the distance in 433.5 seconds, making three relay records that went by the boards No doubt the performances of the teams today, if judzed by those of vesterday, should be about the best {n the history of the Penn games. The popular victory of the Englishman, Lord Burghley, was one of the color- ful incidents of vesterday afternocon. and many are wondering if he will be able to repeat today in the 120-vard high hurdles. 1t an example of fine sportsmanship to see an Ameri- can crowd hallipg énthusiastically: & win for an Englishman over.their.own. American athletes, = That is a lesson the people of some foreign countries might well take to heart. Incidentally, this Lord Burgh- ley seems anything but what the average American’s conception of what an English lord ought to be. Perhaps the American has too many concentions hased on theatrical rep- resentations, anyway. Southern teams are due to take part in several races -this afternoon. The first Washington teams to toe the mark will be George Washington and Catholic University in one of the col- legiate relays. The Hatchetites seem to have an excellent chance to win, if their men can do the times with which they have been credited. Not only on paper do they have a fast team, but they also have the pole, a great ad- vantagé in a race in which more than a half dozen teams are running. Catholic University, in the same race, starts fourth from the pole. University of Maryland i3 scheduled to run in two events, one a coliege relay, in which it will be placed against Union University, Richmond; New York University, Hamilton Col- lege and several others. The only team in this race which seems strong enough to Dbeat the Marylanders is that which represents Richmond, although that is a mere guess and nothing more. as less than nothing, if that is possible, is known about some of the college fours. Drury Coilege, for instance, is in the race and Drury literally is from Missouri. Maryland aleo is listed to take part in the class B collegiate championship against Columbia, Ohio State, Holy ross, Virginia and half a dozen other institutions. For the first time in years neither’ of the five Washington high schools is to compete, and the relays to one who makes Washington his héma really seem strange without Central and Tech in the scholastic avent.
