lowance, gave him
DC feet O inches. The contest took place on
rather slippery boards and the scratch nan
beat him on actual jumping by only about
q foot. Since then Crook has improved a
great deal, especially in the two events at
which he holds the amateur championship.
He took part in the three standing broad
jump competition ut the recent champion
ship games. but managed to secure only
third place with SO feet ~. inches, although
he surpassed his best previous effort by II
inches. lie was beaten by g.. S. Robertson
and A. Zimmerman with "a feet ~ inches
and - feet 81 inches respectively.
In the standing high jump he shows
great science. When the bar is at 5 feet it
is about at his chin. He stands with his
left side to the obstacle. his shoulder being
about 0 inches away from il. Although he
springs rather slowly, he loses no time
while in the air in going through the scis-
sors motion with his legs TO prevent them
from knocking the bar down. His left leg
goes first and the right follows closely. His
recovery is very good and he lands we'll on
his feet, Just as though he had not taken
any unusual spring. He probably is the
only amateur in this country today who
can clear 5 feet for this jump, for although
several Others have recently done between
4 feet 10 and 4 feet II inches, they do not
seem to lie able TO get the extra inch.
His style in the standing broad jump Is
quite unlike that of several athletes who
have mnde big records AT this game. Crook
toes the line and raises his arms above his
head and keeps them there a few moments

moning himself for the effort. lie does
not indulge in any preliminary arm swing
ing such as many do. After standing ap-
parently rigid for about ten seconds he
swings his rms down. and when in the
act Of raising them again he springs. He
does not go very high in the air, but he
gets over a great deal Of ground, and his
10 feet : inches in this jump speaks for it.
self. lie seems to shoot close 10 the ground
and his style is apt TO impress n unfa-
vorably 80 far AS looks are concerned. His
broad jumping is a little more rapid than
his high jumping. When landing in the
former he extends his legs a good distance
in front and the momentum Of his shout
ders and body keeps him from falling back.
Besides holding such big records for his
two f~avOrite events he is able to do good
performances In several other ones. He
has done over 5 feet 3 inches for the run
ming high jump, but that is nothing in pro-
portion 10 his 5 feet for the standing high
jump. He has run a good go yards and
has done close TO 20 feet for the running
broad jump He is a very good sample Of
an all round jumper and runner, and when
Il is seen how easily he defeats other com
p~etitors in his two specialties his high class
ability is apparent This spring esis his
collegiate term and ut the New England
Intercollegiate Athletic association games
st Worcester, Mass. on May ~, he will
make his last appearance representing his

THE RIGHT KIND OF A FELLOW.

The right kind Of q fellow Is modest and mellow,
And generous and brave and benign;
His natures apparent and clear and transparent
Like yours, gentle reader, and mine.
He has no verb0sity, no tongue tortuosity,
And never Is boastful and loud:
He Is gentle anL guiet aud plain In his diet,
Ami never get, mad Ia a crowd,
He Is grand AMI majestic, yet meek and domestic,
AHd spends his spare evenings at home;
Hes a IlrelcSs searcher for all kinds Of virtue,
l,ne the perpetratnr Of this "pome."
He tont play the fiddle, part his hair in the
middle,
Nor dress like an angelic dude;
When he Eoos 10 a party v It'll Meigs or McCarty
He never Is noisy and rude.
He lives with ~fruyalliy and sweet hospitality,
And wants PIC hut two times a dar;
lie never eat, onions nor trcads ON your bunions,
Nor growls when you get in his way.
He Is wise and'he's witty, persevering and gritty,
And has n magnificent head;
Hes all light and sweetness, he's thorough COM
pletenesS;
He's perfection, in short but he's dead.
