By the Assoclated Press. ATLANTA, Ga, March 13.—~Two | years of competition has proved the best indoor hurdlers in Dixie come from Washington and Lee, and their names |are Speer and Finkelstein. In both the first and second Southern Conference indoor track and fleld championships these loose-limbed tim~ ber skimmers from Lexington, Va., have won the hurdle events at the Chapel Hill meet. In 1930, the distance was 60 yards. This season it was moved up to 70 yards. Both years found Speer ahead in the highs and Pinkelstein first in the lows. This year Speer also was second in the lows, while Finkelstein came third in the highs. ‘Washington and Lee did not ticipate in the outdoor champi at Birmingham in mo, but if t.he Oen- erals send & team this season, the hurdle races mise to be among the most interesting, v Maddox of Georgla, who was second in the 120 high hurdles in the outdoor meet, trailed Speer to the tape in the shorter indoor distance last week at the indoor titular affair. Slusser of North Carolina, second in the outdoor 220-yard low. hurdles, came third in the 70-yard low hurdles of the indoor meet. In McGinn North = Carolina State has a half-miler who has won both t.hnindoornndoummmlnm past season. Neither, however, was & record mark.

Remember, FRIDAY, MARK IS SETTLED BY AERODYNAMICS Tests Prove Wind Did Not Help Heave Made During Cambridge Meet. BY LAWRENCE PERRY. EW YORK, March 13— Science has entered the field to bring about the officlal recognition of a world record of a great athlete after human agencies had denied it to him. As a result of six months of research into the subject of aerodyn: which James A. Taylor, secretary of the I C. A. A. A, A, has been conduct- ing at New York University under the nal direction of Prof. Alexander lemin, dean of the Guggenheim School of Aeronautics, the world discus record which Eric Krenz of Stanford made at the great intercolleglate meet at Cam- bridge last May has been confirmed by the great Eastern track organization. ‘The new figure is 163 feet 7"/5 mches exceeding Krenz's former I at Pasadena in 1929, of 183 fet'. 7% inches. Wind Helped Krenz, Claim. It may be recalled that on the day of the discus finals at Cambridge & wind of from 8 to 16 miles was blow- ing.” It was a head wind for the discus and John Anderson, who was judging this event, decided that this wind had helped Krenz's toss. It may sound strange to hear that a head wind helps a discus throw. But such been the theory, the line of thought being that the platter rides the wind just as an airplane does. 8o it does, or, at least, so it would were the missile traveling with nothing save a forward motion. But as every one familiar with knows, whirls in its flight. Thinking over the matter, Gustavus Kirby of the I. C. A. A. A, A. and Secretary Talyor felt that the whole question of aerodynamics re- | & lating to_the discus should be over- hauled. E: its now in pi xperiment rogress | in the wind tunnel at New York Uni- | Case! versity probably will yield interesting results. Records Benefit Thrower. In the meantime, investigation of conditions surrounding Krenz's record | Me! throw revealed that Y.hD wind blowing | ;* at the time was, in the first place, not a head wind at all; it was a quartering wind.

Findings in the_experiments now in progress at New York University will have great influence upon the judging not only of fleld events, but running as well.

He won the event in 1929 and came back last year to set a new record of 6,070 points, and with competition has a chance to improve the mark a second time. His opposition is expected to come from Everett Utterback, Pittsburgh Negro star, who finished second last year, and Douglas of Grinnell, winner of fourth place in the 1930 event. The meet, the blue ribbon indoor re- lay offe of the country, has drawn an entry list of nearly 700 athletes, representing 58 universities and col- leges, including a number of defending title holders. The Big Ten will be minus Purdue only, while the Big Six, Mis- souri Valley and little 19 conferences will be represented. The South, East and Southwest have entered scattering candidates.
