AGONY OF EFFORT SHOWN

Athletic Contestants.

The strenuous athlete of the college

Mckenzie. physical director of the Uni
verslty of Pennsylvania with the OBJ
pect of showing how the violent efforts
from existing records affect the physique,
DR.. Mckenzie has made a series OF
models which. reveal with llfellke ac-
curacy the effort with which the heroes
OF the cindcr path win their victories
Dr. Mckenzie based his facial models on
Photographic snapshots made at the time
various athletic leaders were breaking
tho tape or surInounting the hurdles at
Franklin field and other athletic centers
The most remarkabl bic of the models per-
haps is that depicting violent effort
Were II not that the camera has depicted
again and again the dreadful expression
OF a trained sprinter or jumper at the
moment when he has called TO his help
every ounce of power In bis entire being
In order TO do just little better than his
opponent. 1t would be difficult to believe
that the contestant was amusing himself,
The fact suggests the mesmerzcd man In
Poe's story at the time OF the attempted
awakening. The lips are drawn tightly
The jaws are ciinched. The lines OF the
face are deep IF the athlete were strue-
Cling for life tho expression of the face
could not be more appalling 1t is the
concentration OF agonized effort. the To-
cusing of all the force In every fiber OF
a trained physique on winning OF an ath-
letlc NlCtOGy. LILO more one loOhS ut tne
picture the greater is the temptation to
doubt the value of a victory won.
While not so fierce as violent effort, the
marks made on the face by fatigue are
bad enough Como is the last trace OF
the blithencss of youth. Tho face Ia that
of man tired OF the battle of life and
OF the race. The expression Is identical
With that familiar to all attendants ut
bis athletic meets when the contestants
stumble through the last few yards of
q long distance run. The lids of the eyes
are dropping the mouth open, the cheeks
drawn as though In pain and the general
expression that of a man who Is about
to burst into tears, Exhaustion akin to
fatigue also shows In face that is well
known to those who have witnessed the
last run In at distance event The
heavy lines of the forehead the open
