PENN TRACKMEN
HONOR RAYMOND
intercollegiate 22O-Yard
Champion Is Elected
Captain for 1919

The Pennsylvania track team paid
neat tribute to william Greed Raymond
last night at Kugler's when 1t elected
him captain of the cinder path aggre-
CATION for the season of 1919. The bal
loting took place at banquet which was
given by Murdock Kendrick, the chair
man of the track committee.
Raymond won the 22o-yard dash In
the intercollegiate championships which
were held at Franklin Field last Satur-
day. He ran the distance in twenty-one
and three-fifths seconds. which Is only
two-fifths of a second slower than the
worlds record. In capturing the crown
he beat Frank Shea, of Pittsburgh, one
of the most renowned runners In the
country today.
Raymond Is the first intercollegiate
furlong title-holder that the Red and
Blue has had since the days of Don Lip
pincott who won the 220 in 1913 The
former Episcopal Academy star. who is
now an ensign in the navy. covered the
furlong In the remarkably fast time of
twenty-one and one-fifth seconds, which
is the best figure for the event.
The newly elected captain entered
Penn in the fall of 1915. He dropped
out of college for one year, and then
came back to the University last Sep
tember. He is a second-year student in
the dental school, and is slated to grad
uate in June, 1919. He is a native OF
Utah.

PHILMONT WILL HOLD ITS
ANNUAL FRIDOLYN. CUP
TOURNEYSATURDAY,J Is
One Hundred and Sixty Competed Last Year in Mixed
Foursome Event and Club Hopes to
Break This Record
By WILLIAM H. EVANS

THE Philmont Country Club will hold
L Its third annual contest for the Frido-
lyn Cup on Saturday June s. It is
mixed foursome event and play will con-
sist of eighteen holes at medal play
with selective drives from each tee. Win
ners of the low gross and low net will
receive medals and sum Of money
equal to what would have been expended
for cups will be given to the War Chest
in the names of the winners The club
from which is entered the pair returning
the low net score will hold the Fridolyn
cup until the next annual competition.
There Is only stipulation. and that is
that. while the competition is omen to all
golfers who are members of clubs be-
longing to the Golf Association of Phila-
delphia. participants must enter in cou-
pies having membership in the same
club. The privilege OF the course is ex-
tended to all entrants for one week pre-
ceding the tournament. Entries, giving
names OF players and clubs, should be
sent to Henry Strouse. chairman tourna-
ment committee, 1914 Real Estate Trust
Building, as early as possible.
Tie Last Year
The event last year resulted in a tie
between Miss c. d. McVey and Fred w.
Knight of the Aronimink Country Club.
and Miss Catherine Hutchinson and
George w. Hoffper, of the Woodbury.
Country Club. with net scores Of sew
enty-f1ve. The entry last year was
made up of eighty couples. and 1t Is ex-
pected that as large list will enter the
held this year. 1t is one Of the very
few events that are played on a Satur-
day.
Originally Ellis A. Gimbel gave the
tournament himself. but for the last few
years Philmont has made it the big
event of its club season. and ever since
1t was first started 1t has always at
tracted large field of players
Mr. Gimbel wished to pay a tribute
to the women's golf team at Philmont
winch had done splendid work on the
inks, and the first tournament was in
the hands of the women who were on
the team. These in turn invited the
members of the Philadelphia team and
the Suburban Team Cup teams to enter
with partners. and the response was so
large the first year that it has been
continued ever since.

but as the finish drew nigh he increased
the lead inch by inch until he was
forty yards to the good at the thirty
eighth mile.
Lawrence, with Jimmy Hunter as his
pace. was the favorite to win, but the
old dope was pushed into the back
ground and Young Upset commanded
the floor. The Australian led from the
eighth mile until the twenty-first mile.
This marks Lawrence's first defeat on
the local track this season. The win
ner's time was 56 minutes 16 1-5 sec
onds.
Perhaps Lawrence and Hunter don't
know why they separated, but to the
writer and several of the field officials
it appeared as though Wiley and Ander-
son had begun to worry the present title
holder and as a result Lawrence was too
impatient to wear his rival down. but
wanted to pass him as soon as possible.
Vanderberry Kept Cool
Speedy Vanderberry had a very mar
row escape from serious injury at the
Drome last evening. The 5000 specta-
tors were given quite a thrill when VAN
derberry, while riding in the unknown
distance professional motorcycle race,
was seen suddenly to jump off the
boards only to alight in first-class order
and slide uninjured to the bottom of the
track.
One of the tires of his machine had
become punctured, and 1t was only his
good fortune and his wonderful coolness
| of mind that enabled him to escape seri-
Gus injury. Harry Kleves, of this city,
was returned the victor in this race, with
| Billy Armstrong second.
George Harris and Jake Smith, of the
Olympic Cycling Club. tried their utmost
and then some to win first place in the
three-mile tandem bicycle race. but the
hundred yards handicap which they had
conceded to Wayne Wylie and Harry
Behrins. of the S'hannahan c. c. was
just fifteen yards too much. This was
great race. and will go long way
toward increasing the interest in
amateur bike events in this city

Breeze Motordrome last night, and

grounded the fond hopes which the fol-
lowers of Percy Lawrence were cherish
ing of seeing their favorite cash in for
first money for the third time at the
local track this season, and sent the
George Wiley rooters into spasm of
Joy or something.
The small boy was correct in his un-
official announcement and Percy Law
renee the present American forty-mile
motorpace6 champion. was riding alone
on the wooden bowl Jimmy Runter, his
pacemaker. was cantering along more
than a half a lap in front. Stunned by
the realization that he had lost his pace
maker for the first time this season,
Lawrence took firmer toe hold on the
pedals gripped the handle bars firmer
and continued on his way. determined to
more than make up for the unfortunate
accident.
Meanwhile Jimmy Hunter was speed
ing around the track muttering words
to himself and the unconscious wheel.
Norman Anderson and George Wiley also
were going around the wooden way but
at a greater clip, and the flame of VIC
tory burned high in, their breasts as they
passed the unfortunate Lawrence on
their ride to victory and $500.
1t was the thrty-eighth mile of the
specially arranged forty-mile motor
paced race and Percy Lawrence and
peerless Jimmy Hunter were riding in
great shape and reducing Wiley's lead

started their sensational squirt to over

Even after Hunter had caught up to
Lawrence again Percy was so anxious
to set sail for the flying Wiley that he
couldn't get going properly and lost
another half lap. giving Wiley a lap
and a half advantage with but mile
and half to go. With this lead Wiley
and Anderson failed to slow down and
crossed the line a winner. with Law
renee second, Victor Lihard of Bel
gium, third, and Vincent Madonna a
