Beeson cleared the bar at 6 feet 7% inehces, breaking Horine's record by | five-eighths of an inch. Horine was! his nearest rival in the event, but! failed to reach Heeson’s height. Sweeney's record for the high jump, © feet 5% Inches, lasted for about @eventcen years, and many thought Mt never would be broken. During ‘that seventeen years hundreds of men trained for the purpome of beating @weeney's mark, and not one even came near it. Then Horine, another Californian and @ student at Stan- ford University, cleared 6 feet 7 faches. Horine's performance was doubted in the East, where few thought it possible that a new jumper gould possibly clear such a height. Mut Horine came within two inches of the height in New York, and in a practice at Travers laiand equalled it, Beeson is just out of college and dmps under the colors of the Olym- plc A. C. of Ban Francisco. In the University o! Morrie figs foregs fe reco! cou! of inches low Horine’s best mark. No doubt Beeson, who is a steady er, will even increase his new "se record, and he should be America's best jumper in the next Olympics unless Kichards, the Utah Beeeerenon, improves in proportion. ras cleared 6 feet 6 inches with @A interior jumping style.
