TT Is a great pity that track athlet-
les have not as strong a hold
upon the affections of the public
IN the South as they have In the
North. This Is one of the prettiest
forms of pure athletic work we have
and one of the worthiest, and from
the point OF view of sound common
sense anything accomplished in most
any one of the recognized track or
field events ought to count for as
much as does the work of a football
hero like Brickley or a baseball idol
ike Cobb.
An Olympic winner of the hundred
or of the Marathon or the Penthalon
Is esteemed deal more highly by
folks of foreign countries than are
the stars of any other game of either
heir land or ours.
American Rugby football and base
ball are peculiar to this country, and
we go wild over them. One would
think that we also would esteem
highly an athletic event that was
recognized as standard the world
over, such as running or jumping;
for in the former sports our cham
pions can only be champions among
ourselves, and never world beaters-
since they can not enter into compe-
tition against the whole world I'm
either the gridiron or the diamond
pastimes. Surely championship that
is worldwide and that has been won
in sport contested by nearly all the
peoples of the earth is more desirable
aud should stand for more than one
in which national excellence only can
be attained
Now our athletic young men of the
East, the North and the West are
gradually waking up to this fact and
there is more interest and enthusi-
assn manifested each succeeding year
over the national championships in
track and field sports and in the mat
ter of preparation for the great Olym-
pic games; but in the South we are
far from having caught up with the
band wagon
While, 1t is true, we have not as
yet developed many men down here
who are capable of doing wonders on
the cinder path, the fault is by no
means to be laid entirely to the door
OF the athletes themselves. In a
large part the sporting public is to
blame. If the public would patronize
these games and take an interest in
them as they do in baseball or In
football we should soon see far
greater number OF young men going
in for track work, and far better work
resulting.

This is a body blow right, for
Bradley was the only regular left
over from last years team, and was
about the fastest man on the Tech
team. While light, he was chock
full of pepper. and could get about
the floor and follow up the ball in a
manner that no other member of the
squad could approach Besides his
persistency and physical endurance
kept him In the game at all stages,
so that he was an extremely depend
able man.
Just what we will be able to do
to fll the gap We have not as yet
been able to figure out. Having
counted upon him right up to date,
we are not well prepared to fill his
shoes on short notice. 1t is going
to cut some ice with the final showing
of the team, but there are a number
of men who have sufficient size and
athletic ability. though not perhaps
as much speed or experience as Brad

ers and one or the other is likely to
