Numerous Track
Stars Discovered

For the mex month or so the world
ablaze with stories of sensational
performers in the different Olympic
events. for it is the ambition of every
athlete to try to capture a place OF
the team. No great number of dark
horses need he expected from the east.
because the territory is pretty we'll es-
plored. but from the tall sticks of the
west and south the "phenoms" will be
daily stalking and of curse doing
wonderful things. While some will be
partly on the fake order not a few
will be found worthy of attention. and
among this latter class will be a trio
talked Of in ST. Louis within the last
couple of weeks. They are j. F. Mic
olson of st. Louis for the hurdles and
of the same city for the pole vault and
Lester Bermond of Columbia. Mo-, for
the half mile.
Nicolson has made a record of
O:15 2-5 e the high sticks and he
has received credit for 6 feet in the
running high jump, a brace of per-
formances which entities him to a
place in the front rank. The time for
the hurdles is more worthy of con-
SiueI NUN. loI' Siiou1o NiSoiSoh bS
taken along and repeat the figures at
Stockholm it will surely carr him a
place II not the actual title. Smithson
is said to be not as speedy as he was
four years ago when he hung up the
worlds mark of OILS for the 10 met
ers, and Of all the other candidates
boosted for the team there is not q
man who can do OILS Us. The 10
meters is the only hurdle IN the
program. so talk of selections and try
outs for low hurdles is child prattle.
Wagner is said to he good for Il
feet 6 inches in the pole vault. a vault
which will come pretty close to win
ming nex July. America will be
strong in the pole vault with such as
Scott. Bellah and Babcock. three
vaulters who should beat IL feet S
inches. There are a couple Of Swedes
reported to be clearing around Il feet,
but that will not be worth a place with
the American experts.
1t Is claimed for Bernlond hat he
is a. good man at any distance from
the hundred yards to the half mile.
the latter event being his favorite. He
has a record Of 1:55 and should he
happen to repeat the figures. they
may get him a place at Chicago. On
a correct track and with good timers
there are not many men in America
who car travel much faster. The
Olympic middle distance is 500 met
ers. which is S74.9 yards. and the rec
ord is 1:52 4-5,, by Sheppard at Lon
don in 1908.
