Hatch Skaters Records
For Long Marathon Chase

Chicago, Oct. 10. - A heaping dish
of ice cream and some lemonade was
all that Sidney Hatch of Chicago, q
veteran amateur marathon runner,
wanted after he finished his record
breaking 95-mile run from Milwaukee
to Chicago yesterday. Then, after a
brisk rundown, he went to bed for
a 24-hour sleep.
Officials of the Amateur Athletic
Union declared that Hatch's perform
ance probably was the most remark
able in history. He covered the dis
stance-95.7 miles-in II hours, so
minutes and 80 seconds, beating the
former record by four hours and
seven minutes.
Hatch finished the run at a dog
trot, just as he started in Milwaukee
at o'clock last night. He ran every
step of the way, making only three
stops for a total loss of sixteen
minutes, and finished strong, although
ten pounds lighter. He averaged a
mile every eight and one-half minutes.
Alex Monteverde, of Johnstown,
N. Y, who started as Hatch's pace
maker was forced to drop out before
three-fourth of the distance had
been covered.
Hatch is 33 years old and has COM
peted as an amateur for seventeen
years. He has raced in more than
forty-hve marathon events and 100
or more shorter distance races.

where the public judges us.
Every effort must be made all
around to strengthen the league.
Those recent defeats have stung and
with each defeat we are all the more
eager to turn the tide. l want everyone
in the league, presidents, managers

Lafayette faculty met yesterday and

view to transferring the game to

prise him If such a proposition comes
up. Personally, Bill is not great
booster for the plan, either. but even

a tendency to help conditions during

Nothing New in Baseball
The plan to play the pennant race in
two parts Is nothing new in profess
sional baseball, but hereabouts 1t has
never been employed. In the leagues
down South and in the Interstate and
been adopted. In some cases the sys-
TEN worked out satisfactorily and in
others it did not. but as a rule it ap-
pears as though the idea has proved
successful.
More than the State League will con-
slider the plan of having a double pen
nant season for next year. In the West
IL is already being considered, while
no less a baseball official than Owner,
RUPERT, of the New York Yankees,
has also come out in its favor. putting
himself on record as believing the plan
might help matters materially in the
major leagues.
To Change Name of League
Besides taking up the two pennant
race question it is also likely the State
League owners will act on changing
the name of the organization. Now
the four Pennsylvania cities are repre-
sented as members. 1t seems certain
that the name New York State League
must be changed in such a way that
Pennsylvania will have more to do
with the league than simply assisting
to great extent in maintaining it.
