WILEY COOKE RUNS
FAST TRIAL QUARTER
FELTON,, Lewis and Todd Other
Men to Represent Virginia
at Penn Relays.

CHARLOTTESVILLE. Va, April 20
Trials were run this afternoon Eor the
relay team that is to represent Virginia
at the Pennsylvania relay carnival next
Saturday. The time made BY the con-
testants were far ahead of all expecta-
lions. a team average of better than
ffty-two seconds being accredited. Train
er Pop Lanigan, as usual, would not
reveal the individual marks but con-
coded that Wiley Cooke ran the fastest
quarter ever run on Lamberth Field.
When it is taken into consideration that
he surpassed the records Of such men as
Forest. Stanton, Wiltshire, Huerlow, and
other past performers of the Orange and
Blue, good line can be had on the
time he made today.
FELTON,, Capt. Todd and Lewis came
next In the order named. Brigg, men,
Der of the team that ran Georgetown
Holcomb and Hart, participated In the
try-outs. FELTON,, though unable to make
the indoor four, has been a beautiful
surprise outside Last week. he captured
both the quarter and half mile in the
southern Intercollegiate. Pop LAM
gan thinks a lot of FELTON, and claims he
can stand more work than any other man
on the squad Todd showed his best form
of the season.
Lewis, most probably the fourth man
to comprise the quarter, has suffered the
greatest part of the season from strain
ed lgament in his leg: Undoubtedly. he
could have made the relay team earlier
in the season had he been in condition.
but received his first try-out this after
noon. He made the best time on LAM
beth track last year in the quarter.
Final action as to the team being sent,
to Pennsylvania will be had by the gen.
eral athletic association meeting Mon-
day. Lanigan says the team Is sure to
go, since it has been sent every year
he has recommended. However, he has
not decided just how to classify 1t
In the relay classification 1t would be
pitted against such colleges as Swarth-
more and Carlisle and others Of that
size. Trainer Lanigan Is doubly anxious,
because of the grand showing made to-
day, to send his boys in against Yale.
Princeton. Harvard and the other big
colleges, in the championship mile relay
race OF the country.
Any team that can average under fifty
two seconds would be sure to make a
good showing in this race. With de-
pendable man like Cooke running last,
II the team should be anywhere near the
front. there must be records shattered to
triumph.

MILWAUKEE, Wis, April oO-Johnny
Kilbane, the worlds champion feather
weight. is boxer with a whole lot of
good common sense and also a thorough
knowledge of what may be expected of
a fighter. While in Milwaukee Johnny
spent great deal OF his time in telling
Of his experiences in the ring. his climb
to the top of the ladder and how he in
tended to remain there as long as pos
sible. 1T is no snap getting to the top"
said Johnny, and once you get to the
coveted goal there are always hundred
ready to drag you off the perch, and,
strange to say, the fans, or many of
them. who wanted to see you advance to
the top are always ready to shout for
the other fellow to beat you. l always
had a great deal of confidence in my
own ability. but it was not until I had
met several of the best featherweights
worn by Abe Attell. When 1 boxed Abe
Attell in Kansas City in October. 1910.
l felt that he would some day fall be-
fore me. for, although he won the deci-
sion, 1 knew he could not hurt me, and
as I gained more experience my conf
dence was supreme that l could defeat
him. l made up my mind to fight him
cleverly at Los Angeles, and / did, but
few times 1 cut loose sand slugged him.
1 outpointed him all the way, and will
do the same thing over again should we
meet. This is not to brag of my victory,
but that is just the way l feel about 1t.
And don't you believe that Atteu was
all in when he met me! 1 fought him at
Kansas City and had him sized up about
right, and he was surely at his best with
me in Los Angeles.
HE could not have fought such a hard
battle with a big fellow like Tommy
70 L. I'D
been in proper shape. No, sir; Attell was
as good as ever, but 1 beat him at his
own game-cleverness.
II am ready to take on .Ad Wolgast for
the lightweight title, and will make 1913
pounds at ringside. OF course I would
not weigh over 10 at ringside. but / will
meet him at the lightweight limit if he
wants to make the match. He cannot
outpoint me. His only chance would be
to put over a sleep producer, and 1 don't
think he can do it, At least 1 am willing
to take the chance. AS to Wolgast beat
ing Joe Rivers easily, don't You believe
1t, I fought Rivers twice. and, believe
me- he can hit with either hand like a
triphammer He is also tough young
ster. and if he does not lose his head
early in the fight and let Wolgast catch
him he is liable to- give the Michigan bear
cat the surprise of his life. And you
cannot tell either, how the operation
will affect his body: that is. his ability
to stand punch there. Rivers is heavier
now than when l met him. and he will
be harder to beat. He is fast, although
some Of the papers say he is slow on his
feet. Well don't believe it. 1t would
not surprise me a bit to read about
Rivers beating the champion July 4, and
I am not saying this as a knock to VOL
CAST, for I think he il q wonderful little
fighter.
s.As' for myself, 1 am taking matters
easy for while; that is. as regards big
matches for the title. but i expect to
have another championship bout on for
the big holiday date or Labor day"

There is a consistent Improvement in
Jack Knights work around second base,
and it should not be more than a week or
SO before he will be going at his best.
There Is no reason why Knight should
not play ball as we'll as ever in the posi-
ton, for he is still young man, and all
he lacks just now is proper condition.
ly he will be Of great value to the team,
for about the only weakness that the
team seems to have right now is that it
does not hit the ball quite often enough.
1t Is plea sing to note the aggressiveness
which the Nationals are showing in their
playing. The present team is never
beaten until the last man is out. and is
always hustling and fighting for every
inch OF ground A ball team which does
not stand up for It's rights might just as
well not attempt to make showing. Ball
players must show interest In their work,
and when they are restricted to such an.
extent shat they dare not make a move
without being sent to the clubhouse it
not only interferes with their usefulness,
but 1t makes the games tiresome and un-
interesting There is. however. = great
difference between aggressiveness and
rowdyism and while the one 10 welcomed
the other should be condemned.
