RYAN IS STAR IN
ST.JOHN'S GAMES
Schoolboy Athlete Mostly
in Front in Tests
on Track.

Jack Ryan, OF St. Johns Prep, the
junior Metropolitan champion hurdler.
was the individual star at the annual
interscholastic games held by his
school on its field, Brooklyn, yester-
day. He scored two splendid victories
and might have won another but for
the fact he met with an accident.
As a sprinter he proved the class
in the century dash for seniors, win
ming IL by a yard in 10 as. In the 70
yard low hurdles ne won by a yard
ahead of G. Hughes, of Flushing High
School, the Public Schools Athletic
League champion. The latter turned
the tables on Ryan in the 22O yard low
hurdles race. Ryan made a game fin
ish on Hughes in the last fifty yards
and they were battling it out inches
apart, when Ryan's right foot struck
the final hurdle and he fell with it..
Ryan finished last.
St. Johns Prep won the team honors
with high score of SO points. st. Ben
edict's School Of Newark came next
with II points. Flushing was placed
third with Is points. Out of courtesy,
St. Johns Prep declined to accept its
own trophy, 50 it was therefore given
to the Newark boys.
