Nielsen Field. New brunswick. next Sat

make the event the most notable heel

There are fifteen entered in the cham
pionship. including Eddie REM. the pres
ent champion, who won the race last
year In "a minutes IL 3-j seconds. less
than seven seconds slower than the
American record for the distance. The
