touchdown, however, was freely con-
ceded by the Naval Academy. and the

Veteran Leads
Way Home for
Big Ped Field
War Fund Aided by Pastime
A. C.'s Eight Mile
Walking Race

Richard F. Remer. who is without a
peer as q walker in this country. estab-
lished two new American records in
the opening handicap eight-mile walk
conducted by the Pastime Athletic
Club over the Macomb's Dam Park
track, The Bronx, yesterday. The
event was held for the benefit of the
United War Work Fund. The New
York Athletic Club athlete set up new
figures for one hour of walking and
for covering eight miles.
The veteran started from scratch,
and his brilliant performance carried
him home in twelfth place at the
finish. His first new record came at
the end of the first hour of walking
when he was credited with covering
miles, 1,437 yards and inches, thus
displacing the record Of z miles, 1913
yards made by J. B. Clark in 1880. In
cidentally, it was this record that
Remer failed to obliterate in recently
capturing the seven-mile national
championship for the second time in
three years.
&hCCICQ ny IeCNOfu IC4S
Remer was then acquainted with his
record-breaking performance, and this
cheerful news made him more deter
mined tc smash the mark for eight
miles He swept along with more
speed, quickly passing many of the
thirty-six competitors in moving for
ward. Remer accomplished his second
record with much to spare, when he
was timed for eight miles in ! hour. 1
minute "a seconds. This supplanted
the other record also held by Clark, of
1 hour minutes e1a seconds.
Eddie REM, a clubmate of Remer,
but the cold air seemed to effect his
walking propensities and he was un-
able to display his usual good per-
formance. REM completed the dis
tance, but was far back.
However, Rcmer was not the only
hero OF the occesion. There were con-
gratulations in order for Thomas F.
athlete" of the Pastime Athletic Club,
! who led home the field. Hckey's ago
seemd to be greatly responsible for the
handcapping committee in granting
him the limit allowance of 90 minutes.
But Hickey proved that he was moro
sprightly than he looked. He sped OF
into the lead at the gunfre, set fast
pace throughout, but had TO use up all
his reserve speed in the last so yards
to hold off John Coyle, another
veteran, who just failed to catch Hickey
by the close margin of two yards.
Coyle was allowed 20 minute start
and had passed into second place at
the third mile, displacing Ollie S.
Weeks, the bewhiskered Hollywood Inn
runner and walker. who started off the
limit handicap with Hickey. From the
third to the sixth mile, Coyle and
Weeks fought an even fight. Then
Coyle leng-hened his stride to rapidly
move away and challenge Hickey's posi-
ton. However, he made his bid too
late, but had the finish line been fifty
yards further on, Hickey would have
been a beaten man.
Will Apply for Marks
After the race, Remer announced that
he would apply for both records
Several officials of the A. A. U. were
present and in an affidavit will attest
to the compliance OF all the rules
There is no question as to the &C
curacy of the track, while the distance
in the one hour record feat was meas

Morningside. :, Athletic Club road run
over it's Harlem course yesterday for
the eighth successive Sunday this sea-

slate Stokeley had to put up his hardest
fight. He was closely pressed at all
stages by Willie Jackson, clubmate,
who was second, and Ed Lehman
Morningsde Athletic Club, who finished
third.
The three athletes alternated in the
lead for two miles, when Lehman en-
deavored to sprint away. Srokeley and
Jackson gave hot chase. but it took
them full mile before they overlook
Lehman. This squirt told heavily on Leh-
man shortly afterward. when Stokeley
made his bid for victory. Jackson was
able to keep pace with his clubmate for
quarter of a mile, when he also tired,
allowing Stokeley to continue on, to
win as he pleased.
