The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1907-02-24

&c was hard going. Woodbury. started
like house afrc and i'm the first two
quarters, but i'm the third and fourth
quarters the Props began TO show what
the Georgetown reputation for sameness
means by going after their men as il
they were sure Of landing the trophy
And, hv the same token. they did that
thing. Martin. the last man around for
the Props, by splendid squirt caught
Granger. of Woodbury. Forest, and
beat him at the tape by about two
feet
r. G. Kcmper. the sterling captain
of the Central High team, showed beau
tifully consistent work in all of his
events. In the 50-yard open scholastic
he beat r. r. Pendleton, of Episcopal
High. and StollcnwercS, OF Boys Latin
School. with q wide margin in such
short dash. This was somewhat a sur
prise as StoUcnwerck took his heat in
about the easiest fashion ever seen in
bis meet dash.
Schmitt Gained Whole Lap.
The most impressive Washington
High School victory was that of
Schmitt. Of Central in the mile open
scholastic He made his field look fool
fish. gained more than n lap. and worked
i'm and out among his struggling rivals
in such a bewilderinE fashion that the
judges because confused and lost tab on
the number of times around. He is
small, but very easy runner, who gets
over the ground without effort. and
maintains his pace with great consis-
tency. The experts are wondering what
he would have done last night if he
had been pitted against worthy oppo-
ueuts. The judges twice fred their I'm
ism pistol at the wrong time. and once
was in this race. The consequence was
that about half the men sprinted them
selves 10 FRAGILE fighting for the places
and then found they had 10 make anoth-
or trip. This mixed zap everything in a
horrible manner. and also worked an
injustice on the men who had been
pacing themselves carefully with the
idea of putting fo-th special burst at
the end.
A Jolt was given the meet promoters
by the number of men who showed up
for the 6oO-yard scholastic Il proved
I the best drawing card for young athletes
and it was necessary TO divide them into
three overcrowded events. G. NJ. Oys-
ter, of Central High, won the final
YiIginia-G. w. U.
That Virginia-C. W. L. race was a
thriller. AIarbury led off for Virginia
and gained an eighth of a lap on Gun
ming. Rector kept this lead over Clag-
gett. and then came the fireworks. LO-
raudo had been saved by G. w u. for
such an emergency and he delivered the
goods. He started twenty or thirty
yards behind Reed. but by n mag
nificent and Erueung constant squirt he
made up this lost ground, and actually
finished two feet ahead OF the Nirginian.
Il was a great feat and reflected glory
not only upon LorandO. but upon the
university, but Whiting could not make
il stick. and Bosher forged slowly
ahead, 90 WIN By about twenty yards.
In the 5O-yard open handicap Hstheld.
