School
Harriers Run
Wrong Course
Trail, Improperly Marked
Found To Half Mile
Short

One Of the greatest fiascos that has
ever attended schoolboy event in this
city occurred In the annual High
School 'cross-country championship
run held over course of about three
miles in Jamaica, L. l., yesterday. The
trouble was caused by officials, who had
charge of mapping out the trail, pac-
ing this work in the hands Of boys.
The latter failed to map out the Off
clal course thereby cutting the Quincy
by about half mile.
Albert Tracey, of Flushing High
Shoot, who was looked upon as strong
favorite for the individual honors, was
the only one of the ninety-one starters
that went over the proper course.
Tracey knows the trail perfectly, as he
has competed over it many times. The
boys who placed the flags, denotng the
course, went off the track half mile
from the starting point. Therefore,
with the exception of Tracey, none of
the runners passed the first checking
point.
That the runners cut the course is
manifest in the time of Is minutes rs
seconds credited to Marvin Rick, Eras-
mus Hall High School, the winner. In
comparison to this time can be named
the figures of Walter Higgins, Morris
High School, who won this event over
the same journey last year in Is min
utes IA seconds. Second to finish be-
hind Rick was Eddie Book, Evander
Childs, while William Allen, Stuyvcs-
ant, was third
Tracey, who had run almost half
mile more than the other runners in
the course, finished far back in fifty
sixth position, in the time of Is min
utes Al seconds.
After the race, Police Lieutenant H.
McQueeney, the referee, was sought to
settle the dispute. However, he had
left the grounds. Thereupon, A. H.
Killan, representative of Flushing High
School on the high school games com
mittee of the Public Schools Athletic
League, announced that he would pro-
! test the result on the grounds that the
athletics did not complete the full
course.
The runners of Richmond High
/ School were checked in first place for
the team honors with total of 70
points. Erasmus Hall was second with
81 and Flushing, winner of this title
! last year, was third, with 80 points.
Twelve of the 81 runners failed to COM
rlete the full distance
