J. Howard Berry not only repeated his victory of a year ago in Penn's relay carnival peritathlon yesterday after noon, but. in doing so he won every one of the five events, creating a rec ort'. for the pentathlon that is likely to stand for all time. Berry easily proved himself the most versatile of American college athletees. In the l,noo-meter race he won from Kunkle, of Penn State, in the final spurt, breaking the record by more than 10 second. His time was 4.29 4-5. A. Nash, of Rutgers, his nearest competitor, was second, with 13 points. Kunkle of Penn State, finished third, with 16 points. Creigliton, of Penn State, was fourth, with 19 points while Dewhurst, of Georgetown, was last, with 22 points. Had Nash not finished last in the mile ho would have had an enviable score, for he took second in each of the four other events.
