ESTABLISHED NEW WORLD'S RECORD FOR 400 YARD HURDLES Philadelphia, April 29.—The establish- ment of a new world's record for the 400 yard hurdles by A. Desch of Notre Dame university and the excellent all around performance of Robert LaGendre of Georgetown uaiversity in winning the of the annual Univeristy of Pennsylvania i relay carnival which\opened here today. The international atmosphere of the Desch, who was a member of the United Stales Olymplc team at Antwerp: last summer, and who won ‘third place in the 400 m hurdles, - opened the . two-day track and field games at Franklin fieid| by soaring over the 2 1-2- foot. hurdles stretched throughout the quarter mile in the splendid time of 53 seconds. His rec- ord race cut 2-5 of a second from the hest previous time, made. over the Same course lats season, when J. W. Watt of Cornell was clocked in §4 1-4 seconds. The race Was a contest from the start between a trio of middle western hurdlers. Desch jumped into a lead almost as soon as the first hurdle was cleared and al- though Pittinger and Hilm of Ohfo Statd pressed him hard during the early part ot the flight, the Notre Dame hurdier continued to clear the hurdles in almost perfect form and, once straightened out in the final stretch, drew away rapldly, winuing by a eomfortable margin, with Pittinger second and Hill third. Le Gendre again demonstrated that he is one of the best all-round athletes in the country by winning first .place in | the -Pantathion’ from a classy fleld, - cluding Brutws - Hamilton, -of the Uni- versity of Missourl, 1920 champion, E.
