they repeatedly interfered and some
times collided.
Henry I'll. Wheeler, the Pomona ath-
lete and a veteran of many years ex-
perience in long distance races and
hill climbs, made his appearance at the
club house at 10 o'clock, accoutered for
the race. Naturally he found no one
there but the janitor. His mistake in
the time is due to his reading in a
morning newspaper the race would not
start until 10 o'clock. He has decided
to subscribe for another paper in the
future.
Besides the handsome Herald cup
which is to be the permanent property
Of the winner of three consecutive
races, there will be six handsome prizes
awarded to the winners of yesterdays
race. One Of these is a gold medal,
awarded by the Los Angeles Athletic

sented by the Abbot Kinney company;
the third, a medal presented by Jim
Morley; the fourth. a gold and copper
cup, presented by the William I'll. Hoe

STANLEY CHALLENGES
WINNER OF MARATHON
Champion Walker from San Francisco

Def

William Stanley, champion walker
from San Francisco to Los Angeles, and
winner of second place in yesterdays
Marathon race, announced last night
that he would challenge George b. Mill
er, the winner, to a race over the same
course three weeks from today.
Il have no complaint to make about
yesterdays race" said Stanley last
night Miller was in better condition,
and won because he was faster. But
mad been in condition I could have de-
feated him easily.

Il will race Miller over the course to

BY this comparison it readily can be
seen the pace set by the leaders was a
difficult one to maintain.
Practically every man of the TWEEN
tythree who started, exterted his ut
most to the end. There were few mis-
l. ps and all but three of the con-
testants covered the entire course to
Venice. Some of the veteran runners
who thought they were certain to win
are somewhat disgruntled at having a
new man, without any records to his
credit, take away the laurels.
From beginning to end the race was
as manly an exhibition of sportsman
ship as ever has been witnessed on
this coast. There is but little doubt
that the Marathon race will become an
annual event and that runners from
every part of the United States will
come to take part in it. 1t will grow
in Importance as an athletic contest
until it shall attract national and
worldwide attention and be looked for
ward to as an event of first Importance
in long distance road racing.
Thousands of persons lined the
course of the race, both inside and
outside the city limits, to see the rum
ners pass by. Every man was num-
bered so he could be picked out by
those having one of the lists published
in the daily newspapers. A small
army of wheelmen followed the racers
for the entire distance, shouting words
of encouragement to favorites. Dozens
of automobiles, carrying friends of the
runners. and officials of the course,
followed the contestants.
Thousands View Contest
The start was made at the Los An
geles Athletic club, at 534 South Spring
street, promptly at 9:35 o'clock, a. M,
when r. A. Rowan, president of the
club, fired the starting gun. Hundreds
of persons blocked Spring street to see
the start, and some of the runners were
cheered by organized bands of their
friends. So numerous was the crowd

the contestants finally ran into the

from start to finish. He did not give
any heed to the followers and specta-
tors, but gave his entire attention to
the race He knew his pace and held
it throughout the contest. He made an
excellent showing against the more
experienced runners, who tried in vain
to distance him.
At the new roadhouse Isaacs passed
White, who had been holding third
place up to that time. He held his new
position until he passed the Palms. Be-
tween the Palms and FrederickS Miller

dropped behind him rapidly to the rear
M. T.. White set the pace for Isaacs
from Hoover street to point beyond
the siX-mile post when Isaacs took the
lead away from him. White was fol-
lowing him closely at Fredericks and
forged ahead in the final grueling
sprint through Venice.
Charles Boscha held fifth place dur
ing the first part of the race. Then his
weak left foot began to trouble him
and he was passed by White, Miller and
Starr at the eleven-mile point. AT
Fredericks there were five men ahead
Of him. 1t was by hard exertions that
he made his rebellious foot do duty un-
| til he crossed the finish line at Venice
Boscha was in splendid condition, ex-
cepI LOT his lOOls anu lie SeSAleu d likely
winner. His race was consistent and
showed headwork as well as physical
ability.
Oliver Starr is another contestant
who ran with his head as well as his
feet AT Western avenue Starr held
eighth place and kept to his pace. Then
he gradually reached sixth place and
held it until he arrived at Fredericks
when he advanced again to fifth place
During the final sprint he was unable
to make any gain on his speedy oppo-
nents. Starr was followed by an or
ganized bunch Of supporters, each wear
ing a large paper star. The men fol-
lowed on wheels and cheered on their
favorite, who made an excellent
showing.

In less than five minutes the partici-
pants had spread out for a distance
of several hundred yards. The dis
tance apart became greater as the
race progressed, and at the finish the
men were scattered widely along the
| course.
! Edward Dietrich champion of the
last race and first winner of The Her
aid cup, began to breathe heavily at
Eleventh street, much to the conster-
nation OF the many persons who had
| looked on him as a sure winner. If
there was any general favorite in the
race, Dietrich was that man, largely be-
cause of his previous record. 1t was a
surprise to everyone to see him CIV
ing out at the first.
For some weeks the former cham
pion has been suffering with a severe
cold. He found at the beginning of
the race he could not breathe through
| his nostrils, and his efforts to get
sufficient air through his mouth soon
| told on him. He ran close to Isaacs
until Adams street was reached. 1t
was pure grit which carried him on
| from that point. He gave up before
reaching Hoover street, his follower
dragging him from the street and call
| ing for medical assistance.
From Hoover to Western the con-
testants were scattered over the entire
distance. Iri Schrag, bearing number
Is, reached Western avenue in the lead,
and kept the first place until within
| five miles of Venice. William Stanley,
number 10, the San Francisco walker,
held second place at Western avenue.
He kept close to the heels of Scrag, and
the two held the lead until they had
passed the Palms. Here Schrag was
forced to drop behind, and Stanley took
the lead, laughing and jesting with the
followers.

fourth place throughout the race and

pected of him. He lost his follower
early in the race and had to rely on
other men for water and attention. A
slight illness on the day before the race
probably contributed to his failure
V. Newman, the Y. M. c. A. runner,

III no condition for the race. He
weighed ITS pounds and was nearly Is

him predicted he would not reach the

until within sight of Venice, when his
feet could not withstand the pounding
any longer and he had to stop with
only a mile to the finish line

NEW record in the history :

NEW record in the history Of
IN western athletics was made yes
a II terday by runners in the Los An
geles to Venice Marathon race given
under the auspices of the Los Angeles
Athletic club.
The race is distinctly the classic
athletic event of the coast. Eleven of
the twenty-three racers participating
lowered the former record, and George
B. Miller, winner of yesterdays con-
test covered the distance of 15% miles
in 1 hour and Al seconds, a record which
future runners will find it difficult to
lower.
Miller's success was a surprise to all,
as no one had selected him as a likely
winner, and his name did not appear
among those who had been picked by
enthusiasts as probable winners. In
fact, he had not expected to win, and
had entered the race only to see what
he could do.
Finishing strong at the tape, Miller
did not seem to be much tired. Clad
in his running clothes, he conversed
who had participated were being helped
ID dressing rooms where medical as
Sistance was rendered.
Miller is a carpenter and lives at 749
San Julien street, Los Angeles. He Is
rs years old and married. 1t is bv mere
chance he entered the race. He was
urged by w. Burmese, his trainer AMI
a man of many years experience in
racing circles, to compete. Burmese
had observed the young man had shown
great endurance when they went into
the country for tramps over the hills.
and he urged him to enter the race.
Miller is not a runner, never had taken
part in a race and had been trained
for a month only. This training ne
did after working hours, for he had
been engaged regularly at his trade
up to the time of the race. He never
had run more than ten miles at one
time previous to the contest Of yester-
day.
Miller did not want to enter the race
because he had no running shoes and
because he thought he had no chance
to win; but his trainer persisted and
so he listed his name, saying he would
just try it and see if he could stay
with the runners for few miles,"
Surpasses Expectations
Many persons thought the forne,
record of 2:01:30, made by Edwa ~
Dietrich in September, would he low.

test. few even ventured to assart
they thought it would be lowered fif-
teen minutes. No one was so onti.
mistic IS 20 suggest that twenty min.
utes would be taken from the esta h.
lished record. Miller lowered the rao-
or 1 twenty minutes and thirty seconds
surprising the most liberal predic.
tons.
Miller averaged minutes and Al
seconds mile for the entire distance
The first four runners averaged bette,

condition of the course and the dis.
lance, this is reInarl1ab BILE record. Five
minutes is not considered slow time for
a mile run on a cinder path, where
