A fact that lends color to the assertion
That the track was short is that the
tine for all the heats was unusually fast
although many OF the contestants were
sPrinters of only mediocre ability Many
of the heats were won by men with slight
handicaps in five and one-fifth seconds
and Hve and twO-fifths seconds, which
time also was better than the existing

remarkable time should have been made
The impression conveyed to every close
observer of athletics is that either the
track Was short or the timers watches
out of order. or that there was an i'm
provcment OF about 200 per cent over their
previous performances on the part of the
contestants. The latter supposition is not
borne out by subsequent performances
and consequently il is thought that the
fault lies with the timers or the dis
