At the same meet, Leonard Spence of the New York Athletic Club lowered his time for the 440-yd. breast stroke event to 6:08.8. a U. S. record. A world record fell when Jack Medica, 18, University of Washington freshman, won the 880-yd. free-style race in 10:15.4, clipping 5 sec. from another of Buster Crabbe's records. ¶Frank Parker, 17, of Milwaukee: the Bathing...
...York's Doctor-Senator Copeland left Washington with a committee to investigate hoodlumism in New York, Detroit, Chicago.
