BILLY QUEAL WINS
TEN MILE RACE BY
A HAIR SATURDAY

Boston, Aug. s.-By a magnificent
squirt during the last 50 yards Of the
race, Billy Queal. the American cham
Zion l0-mile runner, succeeded in nos
ing out Ted Crooks of Fall River by
an eyelash in the five-mile profession
al event at the Scotch picnic at Gale
DOMAIN Grove Saturday.
For the first mile and a half Queal,
Joe Silva, the former B. A. A. middle
distance star. and Clarence Williams
Of Lyon led the way. Crooks took it
easy and was nearlyahalf a lap be-
hind the leaders at the end Of the 18th
lap.
Silva Too Fast
Near the end Of the second mile
Williams began to find the pace too
hot and gradually dropped back. Silva
made a determined effort TO head off
Queal in the third mile, but the lat
.er proved too strong and started to
pull away from him on the 23rd lap.
About the time that Silva began to
fall back, however, Crooks commenc-
ed his squirt, and by degrees managed
to eat up the distance that separated
him from Queal. He passed the latter
at the beginning OF the fourth mile and
held the lead for about two laps, when
Queal wrested it from him. For the
next 10 laps the lead altered between
them. but on the back stretch of the
final lap Cooks uncorked a wonderful
squirt which carried him we'll to the
fore. Queal saved his squirt for the
end Of the race. He came fast around
the last turn and fairly tore down the
final stretch to the tape, nosing out
Crooks at the finish line by inches. Joe
Silva was third and Williams fourth.
Wins the Marathon
Another big feature was the 15-mile
Marathon, which started at the State
House and ended at the grove. Mayor
Curley fired the pistol that sent the
30 starters away from the mark. Cliff

scratch man and won the time prize
