baltimore RUNNER
FIRST TO FINISH
Frank Ruth, Running Under the Colors
of the Baltimore Cross Country
Club, Wins Annual Marathon.
JOHNNIE BoLAc FINISHES SECOND

Frank Ruth, running under the colors
of Baltimore Cross Country Club, won
the twenty mile race yesterday from
Laurel to Washington, held under the
auspices of a local newspaper. Ruth's
times was two hours, ten minutes. He
has won two inter-city events.
Johnny Bolac, of Washington, finished
second, just ten seconds behind the win
ner. This is one of the closest finishes
in the history of the, event. Hiteshew, Of
Baltimore, won third place.
The start of the Marathon was made
in front of the Laurel Hotel, Laurel
Md, at 1:20 O'Clock yesterday morning
in a downpour of rain, which promised
road conditions more difficult than any
under which previous contests had been
run. So forbidding were these conditions
that Elphistone, of Baltimore, one of the
best-known distance runners in the
South, who has been a contestant in every
one of the intercity Marathons, decided
not to start, and Holden and Kelly, two
other entries from Baltimore withdrew
from the race.
When the Rams Horn Inn was reached
McKenna dropped back into fourth place,
Bolac moved up to third position, and it
was in this order that they ran from
there to North Capitol Street and Florida
Avenue, which point the men passed IN
the following order: Hiteshew, first;
Ruth second; Bolac, third, and McKan-
ma fourth.
The men following the four leaders
were spread out over a long distance,
with none of them threatening to be con-
testants for first place. These four lead
ers ran well punched from North Capitol
Street and Florida Avenue to the Peace
Monument, where Hiteshew began II

down. Ruth challenging him there, and
passing him at Seventh Street and the
Avenue. Bolac began his sprint at the
Peace Monument, and overhauled Hite-
shew at the Postoffice, and lead him 10

HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETIC
GOSSIP.

Business has four men of high caliber
on its team-Wood, Derrick, Wilson, and
Kelly-and is sure TO be a contender in
the scholastic race.
In the Georgetown Prep Business con-
test Wilson and Wood were in the game
coaching that the youngsters were able
to stand the gaf.
Kelly, of Business. is without doubt
the best pitcher that has been uncovered
In scholastic circles since the days of
Dolly Gray.
Boernstein, of Business, is a good sec
ond sac1er. He knows how to handle
himself, and probably will equal his
record on the baske. hall team If he con-
tinues to play in the form that he has
been displaying in the past week.
Eckendorf is out for the Tech team
this year, and the followers OF the Ma
room and Gray nine are rejoicing. Last
year he was barred by studies, and
there was a great deal of talk about
setting him down on the baseball squad
this season.
Eckey is a big addition to the Tech
nine and will materially strengthen that
club. as he is a natural hitter and a
Clyde Milan on the bases.
Pat Horn the Eastern first sacker.
is a good one. He is surrounded on
the infield by men who have had prac-
tically no experience. He has saved
them many errors by his ability to
pull them out of the air, and out of
the dirt. Horn is a good hitter and
will make the other men in the high
schools look to their laurels when the
final count is taken.
'Luggy'' Thornett's kid brother, JEFF.
is row an aspirant for the Eastern
team. and has fair chance of land
ing 8 position on the Capitol Hill nine
He is a better fielder than "Luggy,"
but is somewhat weak at the bat.
McKenny. Of the Tech football team,
has just reported for the nine this sea-
son. Two years ago he was out for
the team and made creditable show
ing and IL he is in shape this year there
lie no doubt but that he would make
the team. He is a sure fielder and has
the right position at the bat.
Geary Fisher, who was captain of this
years baseball nine at Eastern. but who
left school TO prepare for an examine
ton for the Naval Academy. will take
tire examination next week, and the
Eastern boys are hoping for the worst
Fishers return would bolster up the
Eastern infeld immensely. He would
probably be used in the short field.

HINTS
FOR -
-AMATOORS

The oldster who tells you how to play
the game is, in most cases, man who
has proved a failure on the field.
Doughnuts have certain value as part
of the menu of the training table, but
ii should be remembered that eminent
specialists have declared that the holes
in the doughnuts are of little value as
nourishment.
The young ball player can most easily
reduce his weight by patronizing the
barber shop of Tony Gallo
1t costs some persons $50 day to
keep themselves in good physical con-
dition. This expensive relaxation is ac-
complished by various means. most not
ably horseback riding. The old saw
horse out in the back yard accomplished
the same result and cuts down expenses.
II you have ambition to break out,
league, also consider that Cobb strip
cial value.
II a fellow-player appears awkward
on the field don't laugh at him. You
may not be above suspicion in that par
ticular yourself
Padded knickers are best at all times.
They come in mighty handy If father
is angry because you have sacrificed the
doing of chores for the sake OF playing
game.
A key of beer used in lieu of third
base sack may be thirst-satisfying
substitute for the regulation kind Of
third base. but 1t has the disadvantage
of having the stufiing kicked out OF it
before the game is half over.
Pitchers should first locate the plate.
After that 1t is not important whether
the ball is served q Ia carte or table
dhote.
II you are not under discipline you are
not amounting to much.

tant meeting of the year Matters OF
interest to every amateur ball player In
the District will be discussed, and big
attendance is expected.
The Federal League has one vacant
franchise, and as yet no team has been
awarded the berth. President Travers
is waiting to hear from fast club,
and win not give the franchise to a
weak aggregation.
Playing on the suburban diamond, the
Federal League should prove to be a
success in every sense of the word, as
a good crowd will attend every game.
Manager Mike Macdonald. of the
American Security and Trust team. re-
marked yesterday that he would have
his team on the field some time this
week. practice game will more than
likely be played with the Gallaudet ag-

The Bankers will be minus the serv-
ices of Davis. but should he return
to the District, he will be seen again
at the hot station for the Trust Co.
boys.
The Departmental League is ready to
open the season. Six good clubs are in
line, and all that is necessary is to
adopt a schedule and start the first
game. Shorty Hughes will umpire the
games this season on the White Lot.
President G. G. Love, of the East
Washington Sunday School League, is
confident that his circuit will again have
a great season. With six good teams
