Vanney Runs the
Race of His Life in
Winning Baxter Mile

Trinity A. c., who stretched along the
course from left TO right, Loomis be
ing between Patterson and Lockwood.
Sparrow Robertson got the men un-
der way quickly. At the start Meyer
leaped out in front, but down at about
the hfty-yard mark the rangy West
erner showed in front, and then, dig
ging his spikes still harder and driv-
ing his legs harder, he bounded along.
finishing fully a yard and a half
ahead.
Joe turned as he finished and looked
over his shoulder TO satisfy himself
that he had won, and then, with
farewell wave of his hand, rushed TO
the street. where an automobile, with
engine purring, awaited him.
The chauffeur lost no time in start
ing Off, and few minutes later
LOOMS. now in street attire, departed
from these parts. But he knew ne
had won, and was happy.
Loomis was hard pressed IN the spe.
cial high jump, with Harry Barwise' OF
Roston, Wesley NJ. Oler. jr, and h. j.
Jennings competing against him. lie
and Barwisc cleared the bar at 8 feet
inch. while Oler scared over the bar
set al feet The bar was then raised
TO feet > inches, but neither LOOMS
nor Parwise could clear It. II was
lowered an inch. Barwise again failed,
but Loomis went over as if on wings.
Jack Eller. Of the rish-American
4. c.. is evidently out to establish
monopoly in restraint OF trade IN
the hurdle races. Eller showed the
field just how it is done by beating J.
l.. Davis. Of Yale, who was off the 10
foot mark, and Arthur Engels, who had
q 1-foot lead handicap. Jack was never
in better form and he went over the
sticks like 3 bird on the wing and won
with something TO spare. 1t was d
hard fought battle for second honors
between Davis and Engels
