Indoor High Jump Record Broken

S. C. Lawrence 1G., while practicing high-jumping in Hemenway Gymnasium yesterday afternoon made an actual jump of 6 feet, 3 9-16 inches. This beats the Harvard high jump record of 6 feet, 2 1-4 inches held by G. R. Fearing, Jr., '93, and the world's indoor high jump record of 6 feet, 3 1-2 inches held by M. F. Sweeney. Lawrence's jump, although measured accurately by a tape that was afterwards verified, will not stand as a record, as it was not made in actual competition in a meet.
