SPECIALIZING MEANS SUCCESS
FOR AMERICAN ATHLETES.
Bonhag an Example-Is Five Mile
Champion Because He Learned How.


In the summer Of 1886 at Athens
the American athletes won the great
est number of events they have tri-
umphed in at an Olympic gathering.
In the tive mile event George Bon
bag was forced TO lower his colors to
Lieutenant Hawthrey, the English
champion. in 20 minutes % Is sec
onds. In those days this time was con-
sidered very fast, because the art Of
specializing had not begun to play as
prominent part in track athletics as
It doestoday Hawthrey won because
ne used style common among English
distance runners. 1t consisted of an
extreme speed in the early part of the
race, with the result that after a few
miles the British lieutenant was run
ming in the lead all alone
Bonhag. like the majority Of Ameri-
can runners, affected the American
method, which differed in the respect
that they used no early speed and de-
pended on an average pace to win. In
running parlance, the new method was
termed running from the gum and
it typifles the highest form Of special
ization in distance running.
On his return home, Bonhag. him
self great student Of the game, real
izing this style was capable of better
results and faster time, trained to
master the English method, with a
view to improving the time in this
event That he succeeded is proved by
the fact that today he is still cham
pion, and has continued to slip seconds
from the five mile figures up to the
present day. Today his five mile time
is the American record. S5 minutes
3 10 seconds. In addition he has made
the best time in the 10 mile cham
plOnship run, held at Celtic park in
1909. of % minutes 344 seconds.
The essential element in the making
Of champions on field and track is
termed 81 ecialization. This term
means the instilling into the mind OF
the athletic aspirant the fach that TO
succeed he must learn to cover a Ger
tain distance with the least waste OF
energy or effort.

last year. One of the speakers en-
gagged to deliver a talk at our fair
next fall is Hon. J. j. Furlong of
Austin. Mr.. Furlong is one of south
ern Minnesota 8 most successful farm
ers, in fact he was awarded the J. j.

in the First and Third congressional

at our county fair. The officers of

make it second to NO county fair in
