DUFFY WILL NOT PLAY.
Georgetown Catcher Out OF Game
for Good.

Charley Duffy, the crack Blue and Gray
base ball backstop, said yesterday that
on account of his 1aborS at the medical
school it would be absolutely impossible
for him to take part in any diamond bat
ties this year. Although it was general
~ known that he would not play regular
ly, vet he was being counted on to take
part in some of the big games, especially
those which will take place during Easter
week. According to his latest announce
ment. however, he will not don a Blue
and Gray uniform this year.
Duffy entered the Georgetown Medical
School four years ago, coming from Pitts
burg, where he was well known In base
ball circles on account of his work with
the Pittsburg Collegians. During his first
year at the local institution he did not try
for the nine, but. in his second year he
was among the first men out and he made
good from the start. That spring and last
he put up q stellar game In all depart
ments, performing we'll both with the big
glove and the stick. He was prominent
candidate for the captaincy at the close
of last season, but withdrew from the
race because of his uncertainty as to
whether he would be able to play or not
1t Is needless to say that his retirement
will be keenly felt by all followers of the
Blue and Gray team.

H|FTEEN-M|LE RACE
Canadian Shows His Heels to
His. Speedy Rivals All
the Way.

NEW YORK, February 15.-Frank
Meadows OF Guelph, Canada, who re-
Gently hung up new worlds record in
Toronto. won the fifteen-mile professional
international race last night at Madison
Square Garden. He was much faster
than his opponents and beat them by
more than q lap. His time was 1 hour
u minutes "a 1-J seconds. which is nine
seconds behind the mark he made last
week In Canada. Gustav Ljungstrom Of
Sweden finished second, Percy Sellen OF
Canada was third and Jim Crowley, the
former Irish-American A. c. distance
champion, was fourth.
While the race was practically void OF
spectacular sprints, it was a corker from
a technical point of view. The seven
famous runners made lap after lap at
record clip and for several miles were
ahead Of the old mark.
More than 5000 persons witnessed the
contest and cheered every good move
made by any Of the contestants. Charlie
Muller. the former Mohawk A. c. runner,
quit at the end of the second mile.
Meadows Takes Lead Early.
Meadows got his lead early. AS soon
as the start was made he began to sprint
and before two circuits of the course had
been covered he was big margin ir
front AS though resting bit, he trav.
eled at clip equal to that displayed by
his opponents for two more laps.
Then like Shrubb he began another
sprint and it carried him further ahead
These sprints he repeated several times
until at the end of the third mile he hac
passed all but Ljunstrom, on whose heels
he seemed content to run.
Once full lap ahead he lay in behind
the pacemaker and from there until the
finish never attempted to run his fastest
At the end of the fourth mile the records
began to fall Meadows Travelled that dis
tanco in 20 minutes and 3-5 seconds
which Is % seconds faster than the Amer.
lean professional mark.
Great Marks From 9Th to 18th.
During the next three miles the pace
was not so fast and they fell behind the
record. Beginning the eighth mile, Jim
Crowley started a pace that carried
Meadows again ahead of the old mark.
Time after time the former Irish-Amer-
lean A. C. runner jumped away from the
field and made them run their mightiest
to hold him. For five miles he continued
at this, with the result that new marks
were set up from the eighth to the thir-
tScnIn mile. AT TINS point SfONIcy US-
gan to weaken and again the time be-
came slower.
Raines Best in Five-Mile Race.
AL Raines, the former Northwestern
A. C. Marathon runner, captured the
five-mile event, which preceded the big
race. 1t was a handicap affair in which
thirty fast men started, with Jimmy Lee
the former Boston A. A. champion, on
scratch.
Raines was in receipt of a start of
twenty seconds. Before half a mile had
been Travelled he was in front, and from
then until the end he increased his lead
on the handicap men and stalled off the
spurts made by Lee and won by nearly
half a lap. Lee finished second. Pat White
of Ireland was third and Bob Hallen
fourth. The winners time was 1888 LIS.
