Brookins Could Lose World's Record Run for 220 Yd Hurdles
Iowa sprinter Charles Brookins may not receive an official record for his two 220 yard low hurdle times this spring. A 23.00 second dual meet time with Northwestern and Iowa on May 12 is in doubt as Iowa officials did not file for a record, citing favorable wind. The slower 23.15 second mark at the Big Ten meet in Ann Arbor on June 2 appears more likely to be accepted if conditions remain within standard limits.
