HAVE BROKEN MANY RECORDS
TRACK SEASON HAS BEEN UNUSUALLY SUCCESSFUL.
Eleven McCook Records Broken One World's Record Tied and One M. V. Record Broken.
Although Kansas has two more track meets in which to distinguish herself, this season has already proven the most successful for a number of years. More McCook records have been broken during the season than ever before in the history of K. U. track athletics. All of the meets held here have been high class affairs, and Kansas has added a large number of victories to her credit
Without doubt a large share of the praise for the season's record is due Coach W. O. Hamilton. During the past winter he has entered more than one successful team against track men of reputation. He has been supported in his work by a number of the best track men in the Missouri Valley.
The score book of the season's events show that thus far elever McCook records have been broken, one world's record tied and one Missouri Valley record broken. Haddock has added the largest number of record events of any of the athletes. He has, during the past season, broken three McCook records, tied a world's record and was a member of the record-breaking relay team as well. C. Woodbury has also made a record different from any that has yet been made at the University. He is the only freshman ever to make a "K" in his freshman year. A freshman is given but one opportunity to get the coveted letter. That is at the time of the annual inter-scholastic meet. Woodbury won his letter in the pole vault by going 11 feet 3 inches.
Following is a list of the records which have been broken this season;
Haddock, 50-yard dash, broke McCook and tied the world's record in 51-5 seconds; broke McCook 100-yard record in 94-5 seconds; broke 220-yard record or McCook by running the distance in 211-5 seconds. In the high hurdles Winters broke the McCook record in 162-5 seconds, and Hamilton took the low hurdle record in 26 seconds. In the discus Ammons has a record of 115 feet 8 inches. Wilson took the McCook record in the broad jump at 22 feet and C. Woodbury did 11 feet 3 inches in the pole vault. French has an outdoor record of 5 feet and 11 inches, and an indoor record of 6 feet $ \frac{1}{2} $ inches in the high jump The relay team composed of Haddock, Rice, Smith, and Hamilton broke the K. U. record in the mile relay by running the distance in 3 minutes 28 2-5 seconds. This time also broke the Missouri Valley record in the mile relay.
