England isn't blowing about the
triumph of her relay team in the big
Pennsylvania meet, but she has a
good reason to- The victory of the
Oxford boys was a big thing for
British athletes and it could not
come at a better time. England just
now is half-heartedly preparing for
the Olympic championships to be held
in Berlin In 1916. The run registered
by her relay team will give her new
life and new hope and she will surely
send a much stronger aggregation to
the OIympics than she has these past
few meets.
The great finish of A. N. S. Jackson
should not be disparaged by the claim
of foul. The Englishman won fairly
and squarely, and after being at a
twelve yards disa dvantage at the
start of his relay He came In the
stretch very fast. and he won out
by inches. He displayed good judg-
ment and great gameness. Some 'ot
the experts are slow to give him
credit and say that he does not match
up to John Paul Jones as a miller. We
may find that out later on, and we
do not want to forget that Jackson s
performance was on a track that was
slow and heavy. The Englishmen,
naturally, are greatly elated over
their victory, and they were in high
spirits as they sailed away for home
on the Mauritania yesterday. They
came over here and beat US on our
own dunghill, and we should give
them all the credit in the world.
