...association records were broken: quarter-mile run, mile walk, putting the shot, running broad jump, 220-yards dash, and the running high jump.

She batted well straight through, but failed to bunch her hits very successfully. By far the worst point of the team was the base running, which was execrable.

...practically winning the cup for his school. He first won the half-mile in 2 minutes, 5 1-5 seconds, then the 120 yards hurdle race (hurdles 3 feet) in 16 2-5 seconds, next the high jump, 5 feet, 8 1-2 inches; and lastly the quarter-mile run in 54 1-5 seconds.

The credit of this performance can best be estimated by recalling the fact that there is at present no athlete at any of the colleges who can equal it. Fearing enters Harvard next year...
