...athletic records can point to a successful repulse of all assaults over a stretch of years that extends back to the nineteenth century. Yet that is the case with the 220 yard dash at the I. C. A. A. A. A. championships, for the present mark of 21 1-5 seconds was made in 1896 by B. J. Wefers of Georgetown. Only two men, R. C. Craig of Michigan, and D. F. Lippincott of the University of Pennsylvania, have succeeded in equalling this record in the 28 meets which have been held since Wefers broke the best previous mark...
...record established by Kane against Dartmouth last Saturday. The Crimson runner negotiated a wet track, in the rain to break the tape well ahead of the Green runner.

Miller, because of this, was dropped out of the 220 yard final. F. P. Kane '20 returned a double winner and a record smasher, in two beautiful races. He established a new quarter mile...
...Miller '27 showed a brand of speed in the spurts which should put him up with the leaders in the Stadium finals on May 29. He ran a 100-yard dash in 10 seconds flat without any pressure. He then went out in the 220 trials and breezed away from the field in 22 2-5 seconds, but dropped out of the finals...
