NEW YORK, Feb 6.--After collaps-

Shrubb was hurried from the track
and for time il was feared that he
was dying. Ambulance calls were sent
out, but DR.. Henry Coggeshall, an up

In the dressing room OF the English
man, trainers and managers were in
panic. Shrub was breathing stem
toriousiy. and II was feared that his
heart had given way under the strain.
DR.. Coggeshall examined the run
ner and found that his heart was not
beating at a clip That would ordinarily
cause fear for his life. Later an am
bulance surgeon attended the beaten
man.
Shrubb was stretched on a platform
OF boards. His thin legs ached SO that
when they were lifted that more blood
might be sent through his weakened
stomach, he uttered cry OF mourn

Shrubb, who never before had con

After the 20-mile mark was passed
Longboat began to gain on the tired
