Zimmerman said the Prudential gives

STROBlNO BEATEN
IN PATERSoN'S BIG
FOOT RACING EVENT

PATERSON, March 25.-Paterson
citizens turned out in large numbers
Yesterday to see the running of the
Derby footrace, which proved to DE
the stellar attraction of the SILK CITY
in the sports line. AS the result, the
course over which probably seventy
five of the best distance runners OF
the metropolitan district sped in their
efforts to get into the prize division
was thronged with enthusiasts of the
game who vie with each other in
making the Easter Monday event
gala. occasion.
CASTOR Strobno, the South Pater-
son lad, who ran a remarkable race
in the Olympic Marathon, in which
he defeated the best of the mara
thoners of the world, with the ex-
ception of two men from South At
rica. was a great favorite, and nearly
everyone of the large crowd along the
route of the race appeared to be a
rooter for him. The best he could do,
however, was TO finish sixth, a really
creditable position for him in race
of slightly over six and half miles.
The winner was j. w. Plant, Long
Island A. c.. who, from his handicap
mark of . minutes Is seconds, man
aged to beat Eddie Jordan. Xavier A.
A., one of the scratch men, by mar
gin of about thirty yards. George j.
Holden, Yonkers Y. M. C. A., another
of the post of honor candidates, I'm
ished third, and at that very much
improved performer, w. j. Horton
was but few yards back
Jordan's forward position at the
end earned him both second prize and
the fast-time trophy when he raced
over the line in 1850 his nearest OPP
ponents in this department being
Holden and Strobino, whose times
were s5.10 and 1925, respectively.
In the matter of team supremacy,
the Morningside A, c., of this city,
showed the best strength. returning
Ave runners inside the first twenty
mine to finish, with a total of 1903
points. while the St. Anselm's A. c..
quintet earned second honors with LIZ
points. These were the only teams to
show FIVE men at the end, objections
along the line breaking into the scor-
ing of the other clubs.
