The Worcester spy. [volume] (Worcester, Mass.) 1898-1904, 1899-03-05

ed over TO Moynihan a lead of IL yards.
with IL yards lead, there is not a man
running today that can catch Moynihan
In 800 yards Billy Holland made the
attempt, and it is not detracting one
lota from his reputation as Splinter to
say that he failed. Holland, with a
determination born of desperation, sped
around the track, cutting down Moy
nhan's lead somewhat. He did not
lack for encouragement among the
spectators, but it was simply an i'm
possible task, and Holland realized it,
even While he was trying his hardest.
AS long as Moynihan kept his feet,
Holy Cross was a winner. Jerry did
not trip or fall, so Holy Cross won one
of the best team races of the even
ing.
Worcester men took a hand in the 40
yards novice, Holy Cross and Worces-
ter high both having entries. The men
from the center Of the state won places
in their trial heats, some of them sur
YiVed the seni-final round, and one
Harry P. Jourdan of the Worcester
high school, was among the place win
ners on the deciding heat, getting sec
/ ond place. He won his heat in As
seconds from scratch, of course got
second in his heat in the second round
won his heat in the semi-finals and
| dropped back to second place in the
| final.
| 1t is safe to say that the biggest field
ever sent away in an indoor meeting
in a single heat started out in the half
| mile handicap. There were by actual
i count over so men and on a fourteen
| lap track with such a field the scra tch
men had absolutely no chance of get
| ting up. That was what Jerry Moyni-
han thought before he had run many
laps, and although he stayed through
| N fha inru WAY IOt nP
ahead of him. Capt. Moran of the Wor-
ceSter high school was also heavily han
dicapped and did not score points.
| Worcester men took part in some of
the other events, but they were not
placed Although not SO largely attend
ed as the B. A. A. meet, the games drew
a paying crowd.
