Some time within the next month. prob
ably the latter part OF April. the Wash
ington public wiz be treated to the
greatest athletic event ever pulled OF in
this city. and probably IN this part OF the
country. Pat Dempsey. we'll known In
athletics. has booked a Marathon run,
the greatest ever. in which all of the
greatest distance runners OF the world
will be entered
The Benning race course or the Ameri-
can League Park viii be the scene OF ac-
tivities. and judging by interest manifest
ed by the local sporting public in Ma
rathon runs OF the past year. neither
place would accommodate comfortably
the crowds that would undoubtedly turn
out to witness such an event
Dempsey Signs stars.
Dempsey returned from visit 70 New
York several days ago, and declares that
he has as good ss signed all Of the run
ners who took part in the recent $4,000
Marathon at the Polo Grounds. New
York City. with the possible exception OF
Alfred Shrubb, the Englishman.
Besides this famous array Of talent he
expects TO complete arrangements 10
bring on a number or redskins from the
Carlisle Indian School. who have beer
touted by authorities as world beaters
as we'll as the winner OF the recent Mara
thon run IN Switzerland and another
FTenchman. who Is said 10 have finished
ahead Of the redoubtable ST. Yves in the
old country last summer. II these plans
materialize the sporting public will be
treated 20 the event Of their lives.
The run would decide once and for al
the Marathon supremacy Of the world.
Il would be a last chance for the Amer
icans-Hayes. Maloney. and a few other:
whose showing in the recent event il
Gotham was a source OF bitter disap
pOlntment 10 their followers Throughout
the country. 10 redeem themselves and
once more raise the standard OF stamina
OF the American athlete to its rightfu
place-above that OF the foreign.
4 Reawakening.
Il seems but q dream that Washington
far behind all other cities OF the worl,
in athletic activities. is at last 70 ge
what has been longed for many a day
a real, live athletic event. Many times
most notably last winter. when the IA
nous Indian star. LOngbOat. gave tha
horrible imitation OF the Marathon run
when pitted against a relay Of mex
perienced runners, Washington has bee
forced 10 submit TO fakes as a share o
the worlds play Of athletics.
