In spite of the slow track yesterday the sprinters and distance men chalked up some unusually good records in the fall handicap track meet. In the 220 Brooks at scratch finished a foot behind Bunker, who was given six yards and who made the distance in 23 seconds flat. With a five yard handicap Chapin took the 880 in 2m 01 4-5s, while Cutcheon, only a stride behind, covered the entire distance as scratch man in 2m. 2s.
