the plucky winner was cheered to the
echo as he left the track.
Swain ranks with the best among
the scholastic athletes Of this district,
and had the race at his mercy, It was
thought At the start he sped out IN
advance of the field of twenty-one,
striding along with loose, easy lope,
the last word in form.
Lap after lap he held his advantage,
rating along until the bell lap found
him twenty yards in front OF Jockiler,
with Dryer third, almost lap behind,
and the rest of the field nowhere.
Swain had set a killing pace, and he,
Il proved, was the chief sufferer. On the
last turn OF the track Jockiler cut loose
with a spring that carried him up on
the Tagging leader. running yards for
inches. Five yards from the tspo he
caught his man and, coming along,
hurled himself at the tape, to win by
the narrowest margin.
J. Olinik, of De Witt Clinton, won the
seventy-yard dash, open to high and
preparatory students. He beat j. Half

Despite the heavy snowfall, only ten
Of the feld Of sixty-four runners failed
TO be on hand for the tenth annual
twenty-hve-mile run of the Mercury
Athletic Club, which was to have taken
place over the course in Westchester
County yesterday.
Frederick W Niles and l.. Westmore
Kinsley, members of the registration
committee of the Metropolitan Associa-
ton, after looking over the conditions
that the athletes would have to contend
with, recommended that the event be
postponed.
The club officials were keen TO hold
the contest, ana many Of the runners
we're willing to compete, but threat
from the registration committee that
an attempt TO hold the run would re-
suit in the clubs FORGETTING its MEM
bership in the local association made
them change their minds. Weather
permitting, the race viii be decided
next Saturday afternoon.
The event was scheduled 20 start at
1890 p. NJ. but it was delayed for
some time while plough was driven
around the Empire City track, where
the race WIS to start and finish, TO
clear a way for the competitors. Seven
circuits of the track, however, failed
TO do much good, for ss soon as path
was made, the strong wind would whirl
the snow all back again. Headed by
Mayor Lennon Of Yonkers, who was on
hand 70 fire the starting pistol, the ath-
letes and the several newspapermen
and photographers on hand fought their
way through the deep snow, TO seek
the warmest vantage point possible.
IL appeared that all of the veteran
Marathon runners were in favor Of
holding the event. These included Sid
ney Hatch. OF Chicago; Harry Psrkin-
son, winner last year; James McCurnin,
A. Monteverde, of Herkimer, y. Y, who
is forty-seven years old; Bill Kennedy,
formerly Of Chicago; Olin S. Weeks,

years old; Frederick Destati. of Sche-
nectsdy, y. Y; George Kirkwood.
Nick Gianakopulos. Hans Schuster and
many others. Villar Kyronen, the lit
tie Finn, while willing to run, pre-
ferred postponement.
