HAEGG SUPREME
A cable message from Stockholm states that Gunner Haegg established a new world's record for 1500 metres by covering the distance in 3.45 4-5.
In August last Haegg reduced J. E. Lovelock's record figure of 3.47 4-5 for this distance by one-fifth of a second, and earlier this month he broke the world's records for one mile and two miles, his respective times being 4.6 1-5 and 8.47 4-5.
