Records Broken at Yale.

A special athletic meeting was held by the Yale Athletic Association at Hamilton Park last week, at which Sherrill broke the Yale record of 220 yards from 22 2-5 seconds to 22 1-5 seconds. This time is almost as fast as that made by Wendell Baker, who coved the distance in 22 seconds. Griswold, '90, ran an exhibition half-mile in 2m. 10s. He made the first quarter in 58 1-2 seconds, which was too fast for good time in the half. The timers were Trowbridge, '82 S., and Coxe, '87. The judges were Hinckley, '89, McCormick, '90, and Tracy, '90. Before the end of the term another meeting will be held by the association at which attempts will be made to lower other Yale records. The officers of this meeting will be from the New York Athletic Club.
