Improvement in High Hurdle Events Alone Is Needed
to Give Birmingham Star High Ranking
in the Amateur World.
How Richie Compares With His Ripals

in the 100 yards; better than Thorpe in
the half-mile walk: better than Thorpe
and Thompson in7the sixteen-pound ham,
mer: better than Thompson I'm the pole
vault: better than Thorpe and Thomp-
son in the f1fty-six-pound weight and
mile run.
He has been selected on two occasions
to represent the South in national meets
at Pittsburgh and Chicago, and each
time has come within an ace of winning
junior events, and only last year was
beaten in the ffty-six-pound weight by
a fraction OF a second by much big
ger man.
Ritchie is capable of doing much bet
ter in the fifty-six-pound weight, shot
and hammer, but the strenuous effort re-
qufred in competition of this kind is
very great. With all this. Ritchie can
do the mile In SIT, which beat Thorpe's
record Of 5:26, and Thompson's record of
5:4l.
The records show that in Ritchie's first
efforts in the Southern all-round he won
the mile in $50 and in 1911 he negotiated
the mile in 5:27.15. and now he comes
through with 5:17, which is indeed re-
markable.
II Richie could only improve in the
high hurdling events there would be no
question as to his being even better than
Thorpe.

Birmingham, Dec. 21.-The South will
soon have a second Jim Thorpe in Gil
bert Ritchie, the Birmingham Athletic
Club representative, who holds the
Southern individual all-round title, ac-
cording to a Secretary Benedetto, of the
Southern Amateur Athletic Union.
Ritchie. a. great big boy, is yet to be
developed. He is twenty-five years old
and gives promise Of making one of the
best all-round men in America Although
Ritchie's speciality seems to be in the
weight events. he has developed enough
in the last two years to be considered
contender in the next national all
rounds of the Amateur Athletic Union.
He has steadily increased his marks
in the Southern all-round and his club
is enthusiastic over the prospects Of
sending him North and trying against
the best that the country boasts of.
In 1911 Fred C. Thompson. of Los An
geles, representing Princeton, scored a
victory over a dandy field at the Chi
cago all-round. Last year the Indian,
Thorpe, afterwards disqualified as an
amateur. won the title. Thorpe, the
scribes commented. was the greatest all

duced, but what will they say now of
