The star and Newark advertiser. [volume] (Newark, N.J.) 1908-1909, 1908-10-19

they did not COM
ply with the requirement that they
must belong to the A. A. u. This num-
Der was very small, however, and the
field, as at present made up, is not only
the largest of any other Marathon race
held in this country. but is also the
classiest.
L want to go over some of the points
about the race, in order to impress In
delibly on the minds of the runners just
what is required of them. In the first
place, every man is required to be ex-
amined by the official physician, DR..
Louis A. Koch, 90 Orchard street, and
must call on him at his Office between Z
and s O'Clock tonight or tomorrow night.
This applies to the local runners and
such of the out-of-town men who live
close to this city. The nne from up
the Hudson and metropolitan districts
may be examined on the morning of the
race at the office or other place desig-
mated for the men to dress. 1t will be
necessary, however, for these latter to
report at the office of THE EVENING
STAR by 10 o'clock on the morning of
the race, as there will be a great many
men to be examined on that day. No
charge of any kind will be made for
this examination. The runners who
nave already undergone examination
as to their condition must report not
later than IL O'Clock OF the day of h
race. l want to say that in lieu of the
examination by the official physician of
the race, certificates of good condition
will also be accepted from any reputa-
BILE home physician that the runners
may care to go to.
I must again request that photographs
of entrants be either sent In to me at
once or that the men call at this office
and have them taken at least "a
hours before the race, SO that they may
be published in h paper. Out-of-town
runners may reach this office by either
the d., L. & w. r. r., the Central Rail-
road of New Jersey or the Pennsylvania
r. r., leaving New York, respectively.
from the foot of Barclay, Liberty or
Cortlandt streets. The Central railroad
is the more convenient to h office.
Ample arrangements for the policing
of the course and the keeping back of
the crowd at the start and finish have
been made, and the contestants, al
though they may be bothered a little at
the start, will find that they will have
clear sailing around the course. 1t is
the intention of the officials to start the
race at noon exactly or as oon there
after as is possible. and it is therefore
important that all inner be at the
Office at the aforementioned times, in
order that they may receive their mum
bers, get their final instructions and be
assigned to dressing-rooms In good time
before the start. Herewith appended is
