leges, was 8, 1877 pounds. The total which
Nash ran up under the same system was
3, 547.76 pounds. Not long ago Henry W.
Lane, the Sandow of Amherst college,
made total strength record of 3,82s
pounds, which on its face is much better
performance than that of Nash but it is
said that the record madeaby Lane cannot
be admitted on the ground that he did
not confino himself to the limited time al
lowed for the examination, but took the
different tests at intervals. If this be true
Nash is the strongest collegian in America.
Nash looks every inch the strong man
that he is. He is "a years old, and his home
is in Haverhill, Mass. Since he entered
college two years ago he has been closely
identified with athletics. In his freshman
year he played substitute in the varsity
football team, and in his sophomore and
junior years he had little difficulty in get
ting on the team as a regular player, his
position being left tackle
His strength is natural to him, although
it is in a measure to be attributed to his
interest in athletics and to the excellent
training he has received in swinging the
broadax at his trade of shipbuilder, which
he followed for some years prior to enter
ing college. He entered on the engineering
course, but intends to change next year
and take special work instead.
