Dorand, while G. j. Schnable. that rapidly
improving runner from the West Side
Young Mems Christian Association. took
the outside.
The favorites were Rosenberger Sheppard
and Hayes. At the bark Of the gun the
men sprinted hard for the lead down the
! long straight. and Schnable succeeded in
turning the corner first. He was closely
followed by Rosenberger, Hayes and Shep-
pard.

drew away from the others. Hayes hung
on gamely. and also passed Schnable.

, Hayes by five yards while Sheppard just
managed to heat Schnabla for third place.
