TRACK ATHLETES OF TODAY
SUPERIOR TO THOSE OF 1896
Present Collection of Track Athletes
SurpasSes the Stars of Generation Ago

the quarter-mile championship back in 1896
In the intercollegiates at that time Tom
ran the distance in so 2-5 seconds Not such
a wonderful performance when compaTed
with Ted Merediths run Of AZ 2-5 seco.lds
for the distance this year. But forget all
about Burke's time In that race He was a
runner TO be classed with Ted Meredith
or any other double-furong runner
Il Will not go far as TO say that
Burke would defeat Meredith In a quarter
mile race, but any Of the old-timers who
recall Burke's work on the cndsrpath will
have to admit II was wonderful. This Bos-
ton runner did not have the strength of
Meredith In race. but in action he was
a beautiful athlete TO behold. He had the
longest stride known for a quarter-miler.
In the half-mile run the present-day
champion. Ted Meredith. again shows 10
the 'front.' The Quaker champion will have
TO be awarded the palm over Evan Holllster
VINO was running for Harvard and won the
event In the old days. Nevertheless, Hollis
ter was remarkable performer In 1896
HOLSTER won the event almost as he liked
In the time OF 1866 AS seconds. He could
nave done faster time than this and has got
down to the 1853 AS seconds In fact he
held the record of having run the fastest
half at Cambridge until Billy Bingham
came along this year and ran one-fifth OF a
second faster. But great a runner as was
HOLSTER Meredith by his all round con-
slstehey ana nus recent record performance
is by far the better athlete.
We're Windnagle, of Cornell, won the
mile intercollegiate this year In AIS II
was one of the fastest miles not only in the
college games, but anywhere else Back In
1855, there was very poor crop OF milers.
In fact In those days 4:20 for the distance
was almost an unheard-of performance G.
o. Jarvis OF Wesleyan, was the winner OF
the mile that year. and the best that he
could do was 4:2s AS seconds. OF course
against Windnagls's run OF 4:l5 there Is
no question about the respective abilities
OF the two.

the day for Philadelphia with both Barnes

battle. the Hoosier Bearcat was hailed as
the best in the world. and now Levinsity
has the call. All of which goes to show that
there is a nice big muddle in the truck horse
class and 1t will not be cleared until Jess
takes It upon himself to knock the daylights
out OF some big guy and prove that he
really has the goods.
For the 'steenth time we must pause and
say to ourselves. How good Is Willard?
What has he ever done?" outside of his
questionable victory over Jack Johnson.
who was old and fat, the answer Is moth
ing Before the battle with the Big
Smoke he was n joke and his mastadonic
efforts to flatten Moran caused loud and
prolonged laughter in the press row. Jess
has the height, weight and reach, but that
let's him out IL is said that he has lots
of science and can hit terrible blow, but
he didn't show 1t against Moran. Jack
Dillon administered more punishment TO the
Irish Blonde In three rounds than the cham
pion did In ten.
Willard Won't Fight
In the olden times, the worlds champion
travelled through the country displaying n
clenChed fist and meeting all Comers re-
gardless OF height, weight or color. They
were proud of their hstic laurels and would
fight at the drop of the hat. Nowadays,
the champ uses the clenched fist only when
he grasps n pen and dashes of n tesl-
monial for some drink or a brand of
suspendcrs He is willing to do anything
but fight, and displays the itching palm,
which must be crossed with n ton of silver
every time he appears in the llmelight
Big Jess Is willing TO fight for the title,
but his selection is Ferocious Fred Fulton,
who now is living in the great outdoors,
selling popcorn and pop at an amusement
park in Minnesota. He is willing TO meet
the pugnacious plasterer any number of
rounds for n mere $4,000 or more, which
shows that he always is ready to take n
chance. When he trims Fred he will issue
n sweeping challenge to the champion Of
the G. A. II.
But what about Battling Levinsky? The
battler is the clevercst big man In the
world and should outpolnt Willard in a
10 or Is round battle. He has improved
in his hitting, but there must be more
Improvement before he can he considered
a real contender for the championship in
n 25-round a finish fight.

BY SANDY McNIBLICK

one lone shot that curved slightly off the

| Jim Barnes the title that would have been
worth as much to him as the national open
| championship.
In tho triple tie that resulted in the IL
| hole play for the metropolitan open cham
pionship at Garden city, Barnes master
pro Of Whitemarsh, strode to the 10Th
glowing with that comfortable feeling that
he had his shots well In hand and that he
| had little to fear from his two competitors,
one fellow Quaker, Charlie Hoffner, Phil
mont. The match was really the two phil
adelphlans against the lone representative
of New York state, Walter Hagen, Ro-
chester open champion of the United states
in 1914
Barnes led at the turn by two strokes
and had played almost without mistake.
The human lathe laid on his ball at the
10th with all the enthusiasm of his tall
frame The ball sailed away in n curving
line and passing breeze dropped 1t into
sand trap, shoulder deep to a man, just off
the fairway. The ball hugged the sloping
sand close to the perpendicular bank. The
tall Phlladelphian only had to get out and
lay his ball, on his chip shot, near enough
to the pin for putt
Couldn't Dodge Ball
He buried his feet in the dry, loose sand
OF the pit for a solid stance and then swung
for al he was worth to get the ball well
The ball struck It and before Barnes could
leap back from his stance the ball Is said
TO have struck him on the leg. The honest
Philadelphian said he did not feel the ball
strike him nor did he think 1t grazed his
trousers, but he accepted the decision Of the
ruling committee without a murmur.
He was badly shaken by his failure to
get out the first time and his chip shot to
the green was awry so that he took two
puts for n T. Both Hagen and Hoffner
played the hole for perfect 4, Barnes was
then one down to the other two. Twenty
year-old Hoffner lost his place on the next
hole when he took a s to As. But Barnes
shrugged his shoulders at the sudden shift
in tho situation after he had swished out his
annoyance in a swing of his club and
played the next few holes with a world of
nerve.
He had and and then he made
a bird 4. on the l4th he drew level to
Hagen with to a 5 and he sank
biased putt when his chip shot was short
He held the pace on the 18th when he sank
another 4. on tho next two holes he de-
velOped his trouble Of the 10th and his drives
curved just off the fairway to the rough
on the left. He pulled away from shower
of dirt when he got out Of hillock at the
10th and took to get on the green. He
was eight feet away and blade of grass
turned his putt not an inch away from the

1t was estimated by close observers
hat l25 persons had found theiy way

luite remarkable how many Durango

Take it all and all the occasion was
one that will be remembered by all
who were present. All will remem-
Der the courtisies of James Doyle and
