The fastest time was in a duel meet with Northwestern at Jowa City, May 12, 23 seconds flat. The Iowa offi- clals did not put in a claim for a record on this event because Brook- ins appeared to beat the gun a trifle and had the wind at his back. The slower time 231-56 seconds was made at Ann Arbor, June 2, at the big ten conference meet where all conditions were acceptable for re- cording new records. Among the timers and officlals at the meet were 35 A. A. U. officials.
