PATTERSON MAY BE MAN
TO SHOCK FATHER TIME
Penns 1913 Collegiate 1OOYard Champion and Record
Holder Is One Athlete of Ability Who May Shatter
Collegiate Mark of 9 4-5 Seconds

James c. Patterson, president of the
senior class at the University of Penn
sylvania, is one sprinter in America who
is conceded to be swift footed enough to
equal the record of 3-5 seconds for the
1O0-yard dash. Howard p. Drew, of the
University of Southern California, has run
the distance in 3-5 seconds, eaualing the
mark of Dan Kelly of Oregon. Drew is
very likely to show wonderful form this
summer.
Patterson when conditioned is a con-
sstent performer, and his greatest ath-
letic feat was to win the 1918 collegiate
100-yard dash championship, at the same
time equalng the record of 4-5 seconds
for the distance shared by b. j. Wefers
r. c. Craig and w. A. Schick. Patter-
son last year was far from being condi-
toned for the collegiate championship
race, and as a result he did not ap-
proach his sensational 1918 performance
In the first heat of the hundred he was
beaten by Seward, of Michigan, and Stan
ton, of California, in 10 seconds fiat. Even
In the heat for the third fourth and fifth
men Patterson was outsprinted and did
not qualify for the finals. The time was
but 10 1-5 seconds. 1t would have been
easy for him at a time when properly
shaped. Patterson attributes his defeat
last year 10 oVerStudy ana lack or
proper training and is of the opinion that
he will be far better this time. This
means the great Red and Blue flyer will
be out to equal, If not break the collegiate
mark of AS.
When stu6ent at the Baltimore City
College the 1.-THE younEster repeatedly ran
the hundred in 10 seconds. At the George
town University outdoor games in 1900 he
ran his first hundred in 10 seconds fiat,
and on the same day turned the furlong
in % 1-5 seconds-truly wonderful work
for a schoolboy. After that the times
were few and far between in which the
sprinter did not run the hundred in even
time.
In the 1913 collegiate meet Patterson
was on edge for the sprint He won the
third heat from his toughest rival, A. o.

According to MIR. Kipling "The Coloners
lady and Julia O'Grady are sisters under
the skim
In the same way the spirits OF John
Franklin Baker and of Ralph Waldo
Emerson are not as far apart as one
might imagine the space to be between
a home-run hitter and philosopher.
Emerson. when he decided to quit the
game, expressed the idea as follows:
"Good- bye. proud iUorld, I'm going home;
Thou, art not my friend, and Pm not
thine;
Long through the tUedry crotodS roam,
A river-ark on the ocean brine,
Long PUe been tossed By the drtven foam;
But noto, proud toorld, Pm going home"

To fro=en hearts aud hdStin1 feet;
To those toho 90 aud those toho come
Goodbye, proud tOorld, Pm going home"
Baker expressed the same idea in
slightly different way. But evidently the
two might well have been brothers under
the skin"

Keller, of Cornell, and Olson, of Dart
mouth, in 10 1-5 seconds. In the semi
final he showed a turn of speed which
proved to be n forerunner of what was
to be witnessed in the final. as he broke
the worsted just 10 seconds after the gun
flashed
Don Lippincott, Patterson's teammate.
now captain of the Penn cinderpath
squad, was the only other sprinter on
that day to complete the distance In
even time. Don turned the trick in his
heat and semifinal. The final race will
be long remembered. Captain Bod Wag-
ner, of Hopkins. had the pole position;
Patterson was in No. lane; Bond, of
Michigan, No. 3; Keller, Cornell, No. a.;
Lippincott, Penn, No. 8, and Ingersoll
Cornell, the rim. At the sound of the
gun the field broke as one man. The 80
yard mark found little difference between
the six fastest college sprinters In Amer
lea. It was not until the last 10 yards
that Lippncott, Patterson and Keller
showed superhuman strength and they
moved up just a peg ahead of the other
contestants The jump at the tape found
the three leaders so closely punched that
only the officials could positively deter
mine the order of the finish. When the
shout went up that Patterson had won
and had equaled the record of 40 sec
onds, the Joy of the Penn athletes and
the supporters knew no bounds,
Last year Jim's work was disappointing
to his friends, but not at all surprising
when 1t Is known that he was far from
being conditioned. This year Jim hasn't
the heavy study strain to worry him. and
the 1915 colleEiates will find him ready
for the race of his career.
With all the experience In store, Pat
terson this year should make his senior
year a memorable one. He has planned to
do great things, and If condition has
anything to do with his efforts, he will
accomplish the feat of not only winning
the collegiates. but of hanging up an
other record. Jim is not boastful. On
the contrary, he is of a very retiring dis
position when it comes to discussing his
own athletic ability. He simply is brim-
ming over with confidence, and that is
the quality that counts.
