OF four runners experiencing their first
season on the track. literally ran away
from other contestants for the scholastic
championship OF the South In fact. the
first three runners finished with a lead
that only made il necessary for the last
runner 10 jog around the track in order
to win. The showing OF the entire team
could be described in no milder term than
brilliant" and was d good basis for the
claim Of the followers that Central will
again have a walk-away IN the spring
championship games Of the Washington
high schools
The question remains. Who is respOnSi.
bic for the strong showing Of a team
heretofore looked upon as a loser?
"BiII" Foley Again.
Well, It looks like our old standby.

sponsi6le for the many Central victories

caps I" give Central another winner. a
team that would compare favorabiy with
those that have been turned out Tor the
past fifteen years. And ne has been re-
warded- for few members OF the team
will forget the smile Of satisfaction that
greeted them at the conclusion OF the
Georgetown games. Few other men could
have accomplished such results with a

The Central High track team, contrary
to the expectations Of the most ardent
admirer OF the athletes Of Washington Is
Oldest high school. has already proved It.
self q representative team in every sense
of the word. During the indoor track
season, which terminated with the
Georgetown University games last Satur-
day night, Central athletes have. as IN
past years, been very much in evidence.
Beginning with the Johns Hopkins in
door games. held in Baltimore on Jan
uary 80. they have been well up in the
running, and although they have yet q
capture first honors. they have pushed
the winners, always OF high standing, "a
their limit. In the Johns Hopkins games
three Central runners scored ten points
in The various open events, and came
within an ace Of winning the meet
which went 10 Virginia with twelve
points. Had points been counted in the
scholastic events. Central would have
won easily.
Zeh's Good Work.
The work OF Zeh, CentraTs premier
iong-distance runner. was one OF the fea-
lures Of the meet. With but a reasonable
handicap in the open mile run. ne fin
ished second 10 the redoubtable Paul. OF
Pennsylvania, considered the best long
distance runner in the colleges to-day
Dewey. the diminutive sprinter, also at
tracted wide attention, winning both
dashes, open and scholastic. In the open
hundred-yard dash. with a four-yard han
dicap, he won over the cream OF college
talent, negotiating the distance in ter
and two-ffths seconds. Lancaster also
flying the Central colOrs. won the scho-
lastic 44O-yard run from a field OF the besl
scholastic runners in the South
In the George Washington University
games in Convention Han. Central run
ners again made a creditable showing
although they ranked below Virginia and
the Baltimore City College in the matter
Of points, they more than satisfied the ex-
pectations OF most OF their followers
Several Of the fastest men, including
Capt. Cheney, were unable 10 enter. and
taking everything into consideration. the
team did remarkably well. The work OF
Zeh was again one OF the features OF the
meet In the 1,50O-meter scholastic rur
he finished second TO John Gallagher
considered the premier schoolboy run
ner Of America, breaking the tape a few
yards behind the winner.

each without notifying the other Ben
we'll and Birchall had met and talked
over the farm business. Young Ben
well had consulted his father, who had
Travelled considerably, and he advised
his boy to go and see the farm and
then draw on him for what he re-
quired. BirchaA had taken Benwell
with him to this side, Benwell paying
his passage money to Birchall, and
having an ample amount Of money
with him for expenses, and the au.
thority to draw on his father.
Murray cabled and wrote at once to
Scotland Yard, London, England, for
information about Birchall, Pelly and
Benwell. He was advised that J. R.
Birchall was none other than the
younger son of the Rev. Joseph Bir-
chall, late well-known vicar of church
kirk and rural dean of Whalley. After
completing his course at Oxford, young
BirchaIl, who had achieved a reputa-
ton for Wildness during his college
days, went to London. There he
eloped with Florence Stevenson,
daughter of David Stevenson, for so
years master Of transportation of the
London and Northwestern railroad.
Birchalls favorite club at this time,
November, 1888, was the Badminton
club, 100 Picadilly, w. When he
made ready to leave England after his
marriage, he cashed cheques for e25
at the Badminton club, and C..
Stewart Sproat, secretary of the club,
wrote him on January Z, 1890. when
he was back in England, to send the
cash without further delay.
He and his bride sailed for America
in the fall of 1885, They wrote to
David Stevenson from America, and
early in 1889 Birchall wrote from
Woodstock, Ontario, to creditors at
Oxford, saying that he was in the en-
ploy of Somerset & Co., Brock street,
Woodstock, and would pay his debts
promptly. In the summer of 1889
Birchall and his wife returned to Eng
land and lived with Mr.. Stevenson.
Then it was that Birchal began ad-
vertising, under the name Of J. R.
Burchall, address the Primrose Club,
for young men with money to go to
Canada and learn farming. Pelly's
father was, as he had stated. vicar of
