GOODWIN WINS SWIM
FROM N. Y. TO COMFY.

NEW YORK, Aug. 31.-"Bud" Good
win proved himself the peer of all long
distance swimmers in the East yester-
day when the New York Athletic Club
expert won the annual 13-mile Mara
than race, from the Battery to Coney
Island, after one of the most remark
able swims ever held under the aus
pices of the Amateur American Ath-
letic Association. When one also con
siders the fact that the winners time,
four hours thirty minutes, is fifteen
minutes better than any previous anna
teur or professional record made over
the same course, his effort begins to
loom up as a truly wonderful perform
ance. Goodwin received a hearty and
well earned reception when he reached
the finish at West Twenty-third street
beach, Coney Island, nearly two miles
in front of his club-mate, Louis Man
ley, who won the event u year ago.
Thousands of FATHERS who crowded
the ne%ighborlng pavilions literally
swarmed around the champion, eager
to get a look at the man who had just
completed sue a Furnishing task, but
the Mercury Foot" swimmer did not
appear to be the least bit exhausted,
despite the fact that he had been
tossed abou in most choppy seas for
-four and a half hours. Among those
who started in the race was a 12-year-
old tad, Charles Kaufman. He was
accompanied by his parents, who had
hired a rowboat for the occasion. After
covering five miles at a pace which
surprised the officials, his parents
forced Charles to give up the race.

position at the tinl2.

Burke had everything. He was

He wasn't anxious to battle before
the fight, and l guess after it was over
he was sorry that he ever bothered
himself with a boy neve thought
enough of Burke to even consider him
in his class as a fighter. Before the
fight Burke refused to go on unless he

the drop of the hat 1t was Kline all the
way through, and the manner In which
he polished off his foe was devoid of all

Burke was game and responded to the
bell in the sixth, only to hit the floor
from a wicked right of Kline's, and it

battle. When Referee Murray saw the
result he. helped Burke to his feet and

CAMERON STAR OF
CLIFTON CYCLE MEET.

PASSIAC, Aug. 31.-George Cameron
was the star at the race meet held at
the Clifton Stadium yesterday. He took
two firsts and a third. He beat Fred
Jones, of this city, in the quarter-mile
open event, and by good, heady riding de-
feated his opponents in the miss-and-out,
which went three miles. The handicaps
proved too much for him in the one-mile
event, and the best he could do was third
place.
After one of the prettiest motor-paced
races seen in New Jersey this year, Patsy
Logan, of Boston, defeated Joe Nelson, the
Newark boy, who has Just returned to the
paced game, and George Wiley. of Syr-
acuse. Wiley rode on an ordinary sprint
when he lost his pace. Nelson then took
the lead aud held 1t until the fourteenth
mile, when he, too, lost his pace. and Logan
jumped ahead. Logan lost his pace several
times, but always regained 1t without losing
much ground.
Daredevil; Jake Derosier won the
three-mile motor race, as usual, but he had
10 go some, for Arthur Mitchell let his
machine out to the limit.
