NEW PREP RECORDS DUE
Allen Should Lower Century Mark

q ONE great records were chalk
y ed up last year in the annual
interpret athletic meet, and
it is safe to predict that some new
ones will be made in the coming
track season. In last years meet
Allen. of Marist, ran the hundred in
10 2-5 seconds. He is in school
again and going better than ever.
Allen will enter the event in May,
and with a good start and an even
break in luck, ought to clip is Of a
second off his former mark.
The Atlanta prep league athletes
will be trying for years to come to
establish new records, but there is
one that will probably stand for
long time. That is the mark hung
up by Brannon, of Marist last
year in the hammer throw. He
threw the iron ball 115 feet, which
IS the state record for prep schools.
Brannon also won the shotput by a
toss of 40 feet.
This may be beaten by Porter, OF
G. NJ. A.. who has shown good
form in the early workouts this
season. Lockridge, of Boys high,
holds the broad jump record of IS
feet inches, which he ought to

better this year. The mile record Is
held by Fowler, of Marist. He ran
this event last year in 5 minutes s
seconds. which is not very fast
even for prep schools. Fowler is
working out daily for the meet this
year.
The prep school athletes seem to
be weak on high jumping, as the
winner of this event in the meet
last year cleared the bar at only )
feet 3. This mark will. no doubt.
be raised before the present sea-
son is over.
There will be more entries in the
inter-prep track meet this year
than in any of the previous ones.
Also the athletes are training more
faithfully and are under more skill
full advisers. The event should de-
velop a bunch Of new stars and new

Skull in Ring Bout

DITTSBURG, PA, March al
Tommy Lavelle, one of the
most promising lightweights
seen around here in years, died
early this morning from fractured
skull received in a ring encounter
last night.
Lavele met Swats Anderson,
local boy. in a six-round no deci-
sion contest at a local club. Both
boys fought hard throughout the
mill with honors fairly even. While
in a fierce mixup in the fourth
round Lavelle suddenly slipped,
crashing against one Of the ring

THE game boy continued the re-
mainder of the round, as well
as the two succeeding rounds of
the fight After the sixth session
he collapsed in his corner and was
at once rushed to a nearby hospital,
where he died early to-day.
Lavelle was well known in At

greatest battles. He met Frank

VOL CATCHING
CANDIDATES IN
ROYAL BATTLE

NASHVILLE, TENN. March
~ 21.-The hardest fight
among the Volunteer can
didates this spring is between the
catchers. At present there are
four receivers on deck. They are
Bill Ludwig veteran of many cam
paigns; Harry Glenn, of last years
Vols; Eddie Moves, secured from
Chattanooga in a trade for Harry
Storch, and Fowlkes, a semi-pro.
The latter can not be considered
A serious contender, but it is nip
and tuck between the others. Lud-
Wig has recovered from his attack
Of grip and is back in harness
again. He has a great wing and
throws with certainty to any of
the bags. This, together with his
years Of experience, makes him
strong favorite. and indications
are that he will be made first re-
ceiver Glenn looks much better
than he did last season and has
picked up wonderfully in his hit
ting.
Eddie Moves is showing a decid-
ed reversal Of form over his work
with the Lookouts, is chuck full of
ginger and clouts the ball all over
the lot. His arm hasn't rounded
to as yet, but then it's a trife ear
~ for catchers to be cutting loose.
Its question with the fans
whether Schwartz will keep Noyes
or Glenn. for the boss is silent on
that subject, as we'll as all others.
What good would it do to have
the other fellows out there work
ing their heads off if l had al
ready told them who would stick?
And I'm not so certain about
things myself" is the way Bill puts
it. Whoever gets the pink slip will

and issued four passes. However,
it was Hartner's first appearance

naturally a bit Hurried. The lad
has a peck of stuff-and the south

THESE two games with the Sol

My personal suggestion to the

the expense to advertising The

W. J. McBeth writes that Young
can field all around Derrick. but
doubts if the Tri- State kid will be
able to hit the ball, owing to
tendency to "uppercut" it. Besides
that, Derrick is a corking good
fielder himself and has had the ad-
vantage Of a long training under

It is likely that both men will be
