Mile Handicap of Entire
Nous Meet.
BY 4. c. CAYAGNARO.

Herman Alderman, the sturdy New
York. Athletic Club runner, logged
home to an easy victory in winning the
three-mile handicap run. the feature Of
the annual games of the Entire Nous
Athletic Club, held at Olympic Field,
Paterson, n. j., yesterday afternoon.
Following a stiff pace until the last
lap, Alderman let out a mighty sprint
that carried him home twenty-five
yards in advance Of his rivals.
Joe p. Georgia, of the Paulist Ath-
lttic Club, attempted to kill off Ack-
erman by a driving pace from the start,
but il resulted in him cracking when
the to { came. When Alderman chal-
lenged, Georgia, totally exhausted by
his efforts, was ready to stop. How
ever. several eliminates urged him on,
and he fought on until half lap from
home. He could not run any further
passed by Feher. Georgia continued
on to the tape, taking third prize, as
all the other contestants had retired.
The six-lap running track, resembling
miniature hills and having dangerous
holes, caused several stumbles. The
athletes also had to run themselves out
10 cover ground. and many favorites
fell by the wayside.
In the l00-yard dash Fred Teschner,
the Glencoe Clubs coming champion,
succeeded in breaking the worsted, a
winner by inches. He gained a large
advantage on his opponents in the final
heat by beating the gun by almost q
yard. but his opponents closed on him
in the run to the finish. and it was
only reserve final jump that gave him
victory by inches. George ". Dernell
and Andy Pendleton, two of the best
young sprinters of the district, were
shoulders locked passing the judges.
Dernell received second place.
The 300-yard run furnished a sensa-
tional finish, Alexander Smith, OF the
Mohawk Athletic Club doing most Of
his running in the early stages, to win
by four yards. Tom Young, unattached.
closed strongly, but he made his bid
too late. A handicap of forty-fve yards
greatly aided J. NJ Duffy. of the Stein
way Athletic Association, 10 lead home
the runners.
Harry Nichols, representing the
Morningside Athletic Club, raced away
az the gun to make the contest a run
away, but he soon weakened and I'm
ished back in the rucE. Martin Cook,
Of the Newark Athletic Club. then went
into the van. but Harry Bidlle, Mo-
hawk athlete. soon replaced him, 10 be
IN turn ovortaken by Duffy. Frank
jenkins. the st. Christopher Club star,
toed the scratch mark. but he failed 70
revel in the bad going ard could finish
no better than fourth. ten yards back
of the victor.
