University of Illinois Relay Team
Shatters National Mark in 440 Run
Milton Angier of Illinois Establishes American Record in
Javelin When He Heaved Shaft 203 Feet 9 1-2 Inches
—Hartman of Nebraska Wins Shotput.
Dos Moines, la., April 28.—A
world * record was smashed, one—
possibly two—American records were
shattered Rnd 10 Drake records were
broken today in the 14th annual
Drake relay carnival, which/attracted
n-.ore than 1,300 track and Held stars,
the greatest entry list in ilie history
of the event.
Perfect weather, with a warm sun,
and a track lightning fast, made con
ditions favorable for the wholesale
shattering of records.
The world’s record to fall was made
by the crack University of Illinois
team in the 440-yard relay, the time
1/eing :42 3-10, a tenth of a second
faster than the distance has ever been
■ sivered before. An American record
in the javelin was established by
Milton Angler of Illinois, holder of
the mark, who heaved the shaft 203
feet 9'4 inches, bettering Ids record
established in the Drake game a year
ago by an even foot.
in addition to these undisputed rec
ords, athletic authorities tonight
were unanimous in their opinion that
Illinois should be credited with an
American record in the 880-yard re
lay, which the Illini quartet won in
1:2T 5 10. This performance is one
lenth slower than the world’s record
created by B. J. Wefers, jr.; H. Kay.
K. K. Bovejoy and Edward Parfell
in 1921. This same quartet held the
world’s record for the 440 made in
1921, which Illinois shattered. So
other college team, the coaches claim,
hbs covered the distance as fast as
Illinois.
I no poacne* also claim a worm s
intercollegiate record for the Univer
sity of Iowa team In the one-mile
relay, which the llawkeyes reeled off
in 3:16 9-10, one-tenth of a second
slower than the world's record made
by C. B. Rogers, Karl Kby, Lawrence
Brown and Robert Maxam, competing
.\s an American Legion team in J021.
The new records established for the
Drake games follow:
Half Mile High School Relay—Won
> by University High school, Chicago,
Time: 1:35 1-5.
In the college relays, Monmouth,
Wabash and Butler divided honors by
winning one each. Florida aftd Oregon
failed to break into the winning col
umn.
In the Individual events, Kansas,
in addition to Illinois, produced the
only double winner. Mervln Graham
of Kansas won the running jump with
a leap of 22 feet 7 inches, while Poor,
also of Kansas City, captured the
high jump, clearing the bar at 6 feet
1 inches. Towler of Minnesota won
i he 120-yard high hurdles, leaping
the barriers In :15 1-5.
Two surprises of the special events
was the defeat of Van Orden of !
Michigan in the shotput and the vie- |
tory of Brow nell of Illinois in the pole
\ault. Hartman of Nebraska won the
shot with a heave of 41 feet 11 inches,
while Brownell triumphed over Van
Ordon. the favorite, in the vault with
a leap of 12 feet 10 Inches.
Jote R^y of the Illinois Athletic
dub, holder of nine world records,
ran the fastest mile traveled In til s
country this year, when he defeated
Ray Buker. former national and
eastern Intercollegiate champion, in
a special one mile match relay In
4:15 5 10, Ray permitted Buker to
set the pace for the first halt, which
was covered In 2:00. and then jump
ed into the lead and finished 10
cards ahead of his rival, now a
divinity student at the University of i
Chicago.
In the seeond special race of the
day, ••Dear ' Welters, a former Ames
star, defeated Ph.l Spink and Phil ]
I’onohoe, both former Culvers.ty of
Illinois stars, covering 'the 440-yard
iun In :49 S-10. Wolters won the race
ai the tape, just nosing out Spink.

Ak Meeting to
Be Greatest in
Middlewest
Elite of Thoroughbred World
Here to Race for Purses To
talling $65.000—Compe
tent Officials in Charge.
By JAMES I.. BAKJH.
That the third annual Ak-Sar-Ben
spring running rare meeting, to be
held June 2 to 23. will rival any
shorter race meeting in the country
and surpass any staged ip the mid
dle west sinee abolishment of ruelng
at Kansas City und St. Louis 15
years ago is assured in the opinion
of veteran Omaha turf followers.
The reasons for the phenomenal
success of racing in Omaha may be
summed up as follows:
A competent board of governors
ts at the -head of thp Ak-Sar-Ben
organization.
The best racing officials in the
1'nited States are engaged to han
dle the meetings.
Liberal purses and stake evens
are awarded in proportion to gate
receipts.
Splendid arronnnodalions are pro
vided for owners, trainers and
horses.
flood patronage, which increases
with each meeting.
No conflicting date with other
hip meetings.
Charley Trimble, Ak-Sar-Ben racing
secretary, has presided at many race
meetings in the fimat' Western cir
i uit and enjoys the confidence of
ow-ners.
Two 97,000 Makes.
Omaha ns and Nebraskans have
taken to the "king of sport*'' with
enthusiasm and each successive meet
ing reflects its rapidly increasing
popularity with larger gate receipts.
Large gate receipts permit larger
purses and larger purses attract ;
owners of the highest class horses.
In Martin Nathanson, presiding
Judge, Ak Bar-Ben has one of the
foremost “gong knockers" and handi- ;
capers in the country. Nathanson has 1
been connected with the racing game '
for 30 years .and his integrity Is above
question, so his presence assures fair
ness to horsemen.
Nathanson conducts the Havana
winter meeting.
Arthur McKnight. official starter,
needs no Introduction, as he has
served here at all previous meetings.
He is one of the foremost starters In
the country and was schooled under
liirk Dwyer, the greatest in the game
when it came to getting the gallopers
off nose for noser.
Official Important*.
John Carey, paddock judge, knows
every angle of the game and \*lrlual-1
ly runs the Columbus (O.) meeting, '
To the uninitiated, officials do not j
spell much, hut to the sophisticated
ones thpy determine the success or
failure of a meeL_
Attendance has justified *65,0(10
being hung up In purse#—$23,000 over
the amount given last spring. The
minimum platter race has been raised
from $300 to $500 and seven races dally
are an established feature of this
spring's session.
Anotheh high priced handicap race,
the Stockyards derby handicap, for
$2,000, has been added in addition to
the JvHig's Plate derby handicap for
'the same amount. S
W*Ui the opening of the meeting
more than a month away, more than
200 horses are quartered in the Ak
stables ready to go postward. Three
hundred more will lie shipped from
racing points in Ohio, Illinois and
Kentucky.
Among the 200 head stabled at Ak
field, are such hoi'ffes as Ahadane,
holder of the world's record for a
mile 40 yards; Adonis, which was
beaten out of a $30,000 ('offruth purse
by a nose iiy Rebuke; Delante, which
traveled six furlongs in 1:12, and a
mile in 1:38 at Tlajuana last (Vinter;
Jack Bauer, John S. Reardon, Ten
Buttons, Honest George and Van
Patrick, all horses which are capable
fit accounting for purses at any
track in the country.
Only two leading stables at Tia
Juana Ignored the Omaha session.
Major .1. K. L. Ross and W. Daniels
shipped their strings direct to Ken
tucky from the Western track, us
both have a number of nominees for
this year's Kentucky derby. Blanc
Being, already a favorite, will fly
Daniel’s colors In the three-year-old
classic.
Tiajunna's contribution was swelled
yesterday by I he arrival of two car
loads of thoroughbreds. One car, in
charge of the well known trainer, R.

has contributed to bobbles. Still, the
lively ball undoubtedly plays s big

have flubbed quite often.
