BABIES
ON THEIR FACES
Others Will Be Judged Accord
ing to Points---HoW to
See the Show.

In New York City a school for pre-
pairing children for Princeton College
has been established, where physical as
we'll as mental growth is the order of
study. A. B. Woods brother is one of
the instructors in this school and Ho-
nolulu people. while visiting there,
were greatly surprised at the very
painstaking course of the physical in
struction.
Upon entering the school a child OF
any age-for the institution includes
primary, grammar and high school
graduates-undergo thorough medical
examination, of which a complete rec
ord is made. Special exercises are then
prescribed for any physical defect and
all-around movements are given for the
upbuilding of a perfect physique. For
instance, the most common lack in the
bodies of young Americans is a we'll
developed chest.
Prior to the baby show, the judges
are going to meet and decide upon the
proper points and percentages to be
given to different qualities. 1t is hoped
that upon this occasion the doctors will
become eloquent and instruct the rest
of the company upon the perfection OF
| the little human.
| The prizes for the prettiest babies
will be simply for looks, and even a
baby with ingrowing toes will be given
a prize for it's pretty face.
| The tickets being only twenty-five
cents, all Honolulu will probably turn
out to see the forty-eight babies. The
crowd is to pass single file between
ropes. A sufficient time to inspect eacf
child will be given and no rush Will b'
lallowed The line will enter the Mile
street and Beretania avenue corne

hall door and out. No limit to IN

SHRUBB HAS
FAST RECORDS

NEW YORK, May 25.-Alfred Shrubb,
the greatest distance runner in the
world, who landed in New York re-
Gently. had his first workout at Celtic
Park. 1t was the first chance the
local experts had to look over the Eng
lish flyer, and they were amazed.
Shrubb is not the tall, lithe-limbed ath-
lete one would expect to see as cham
pion distance runner. He appears TO
be about five feet seven inches in height
much shorter than Bonhag and Long
boat-yet his records are better than
theirs at every distance.
The Englishman, when running, does
not show as pretty style as the average
American distance champion. You are
impressed, first of all, by the wonderful
snap in his action. Instead OF the
long lope Shrubb uses fast strioe'
and his arm action is more that or
Splinter than that of the average dis
lance runner.
In running a distance race the aver
age athlete maintains an even gait all
| the way. Not so with Shrubb, how
ever. He is just as liable to let out
| a hundred-yard sprint in the middle of
race as not in fact, that is his fav-
orite way of worrying and wearing OUT
an opponent. Without warning he Will
dash away and gain twenty-five yaros
over his rivals in a hundred. Slowly
they will close on him again until they
have almost reached his shoulder, pui
the instant Shrubb sees shadow on
the path behind him he is off again
like a scared rabbit. This trick re-
peated a few times takes the heart out
of the best of them.
AS an amateur Shrubb beat every
thing in sight. Not pretending 10 Dc
at his best under two miles, he mas
nevertheless, done his mile a yarc
worse than 4.16 As. His two mile:
in 500 3-5 is regarded as the greatest
distance record on the books. Another
peach" is ten miles in so minutes anc
40 seconds, or sos per mile all the way
The following worlds records are al
held by Shrubb:
Mile and a quarter, $40 Is.
Mile and half, 6.47 So.
Two miles, 900 80.
Three miles, 14.17 3-5.
/ Four miles, 1923 S-5.
Five miles. 24.33 2-5.
Six miles, 1888 rs.
Seven miles. 35.04 3-5.
Eight miles, 40.16.
Nine miles, 1927 3-5.
Ten miles, 50.40
Eleven miles, 1923 2-5.
One hour, II miles, 1877 yards.
Shrubb, like most great athletes, dis
covered his ability by accident. he
lived in a small English town in whicr
cross-country running was one OF th'
favorite winter sports. Shrubb never
took part in the runs until there was
big fire in one of the adjoining villages
one evening. A party Of cross-countrS
runners set out to run to the fire taDou
seven mi'es), and in some way Shruot
was enticed to go along. Shruot
reached the fire long before the cract
runner of his village. and from tna'
gradually improved until ne became
/ champion
