DORANDO DEFEATS
HAYES IN MARATHON

SAN FRANCISCO, January 31.-Do-
rando Pietro of Italy won decisive vic
tory over Johnny Hayes OF New York
in the marathon race run at Recreation
Park in the rather slow time of 241.35. It
was the fourth meeting of the pair, and
the Italians victory in three Of the four
races stamps him as the master of the.
clever little New Yorker.
For twenty-sx miles of the long jour-
ney there was no time when the men
were separated by more than dozen
feet, with Hayes setting the pace. Do
rando darted away in a brilliant burst of
speed at the end Of the twenty-sixth
mile. and handily shook Hayes off to win
by forty yards. In the entire race Do
rando set the pace for less than a mile.
At three different stages Hayes at
tempted by desperate spurts to shake the
Italian off, but his efforts were unavail-
ing. The first attempt was made at the
end of the twelfth mile. when Hayes I'M
expectedly shot ahead, but after he had
opened a gap Of more than ten feet Do
rando was after him like bullet. Hayes
second attempt was made in the nine
teenth mile. and his final effort came at
the end OF the twenty-first mile.
DOrandos tactics apparently worried
Hayes, and when the crucial test came
he had spent his reserve force and could
not respond to the heart-breaking finish
of the Italian. A crowd Of 10000 per-
sons crowded Recreation Park to see the
race.

a great deal. III is very often that the
man who is touted as a wonder on the
form he shows in the south falls down
completely when he gets into the big
fight, while some youngster who is over
looked in the scramble turns out to be
wonder and replaces one of the old stars
before the season Is far advanced.
The youngsters are always ambitious in
the south, while the regulars take their
time and are content in getting their
muscles hardened and in shape for the
regular games. The men who have been
through the mill seldom take chances of
hurting their arms or legs in making
spectacular throws and stealing bases
where these feats do not count for any
thing.
OF course, it is to be expected that the
Youngsters. who are showing in fast
company for the first time, are anxious
to make good impression on the man
ager. and the form they show in the
practice games makes them shine in con-
trast to the easy-going pace of the vet
eran. II is seldom, however, that a wise
manager makes decision on what he is
shown by player in the south. 1t is in
the championship games, where the teams
are putting forth their best efforts to
win and where il means something, that
the nerve and skill of player, especial
ly that of a young player, show their
worth.
President Noyes Is. just now busy ar
ranging trips to Hot Springs for q quartet
of the Nationals, including Schaefer,
Reisling. Witherup and Conroy. These
four players have expressed a wish to
work out for two weeks at the famous re-
sort and by next week they will be on
their way.
Wild Conroy was one of the first to
say that he would go to Hot Springs, the
clever boy recognizing the fact early last
season that he needed good boiling out
in the spring 10 start him right this year.
The signing of EiberseId has doubtless
made Conroy stronger than ever for the
Hot Springs stunt. az he clearly sees that
he will have to SHOW this summer or
drift back.
Germany Schaefer is another one of
the vets who recognized the fact last
year that he must he fit this season or
take the count. Last spring the Dutch
man felt sure OF himself that he cut
out the Hot Springs stuff and a result

HATCHETITES' MEET
WILL HAVE CLASS

Manager Ernest Eaton of the George
Washington track team spent several
days in Philadelphia last week complet-
ing arrangements for the Pennsy entries
in the George Washington meet to be
held in Convention Hall next Saturday
night
The University of Virginia entries came
to hand just before time to close up the
entries, and with them letter from the
Virgtnians' manager in which he says
that the Charlottesville athletes, sixteen
strong. are coming to Washington with
the intention of making strong bid for
the championship cup trophy. One of the
big features of the meet will be the
three-cornered relay race between Vir-
ginia, Cornell and Swarthmore. The last
named college has this year one OF the
fastest relays in the history OF the in
il is not one bit afraid of being able
to hold its own against Cornell and
Virginia. This race should be corker.
Manager Eaton also received word last
night from Richmond College to the eff
feet that the management would send
eight men to the George Washington
meet. Four of the team will compose the
relay which runs against the George
Washington quartet in the final event on
the program. Coach Dunlop could not
state definitely just now whom he would
select.
Capt. Teddy Bristow. who made an ex
cellent showing in the fifty-yard dashes
in the Richmond College games last year.
has entered this event at the Hatchetites'
games Vaughn, who may be Bristow's
running mate in the dashes. is a fresh

AMONG LEADERS IN

ANNAPOLIS. Md. January 31.-The
present midwinter athletic season at the
Naval Academy Is easily the best which
has ever taken place at the institution,
and is marked by a greatly improved
showing of the midshipmen In several
sports. The most notable OF these is
basket ball, in which the midshipmen
have taken rank among the best fives in
the country. The team has been coached
for the past two seasons by William l.
Lush. the professional base ball player.
who has also coached the Yale base ball
lists for four seasons
The victory over Yale In gymnastics
Saturday was very pleasing to the naval
contingent. On next Saturday the acad-

versity of Virginia, and there will be a
wrestling tournament between teams from
the academy and the University OF Penn
