at Great Lakes in refusing at the last
! minute to allow Winfield Trout. Lowell
Gildncr, Earl W%indhovel, Elmer Smith
and Joseph O'Bricn a furlough to make
The trip, while as a contrast every other
section of the country from Maine to
Florida and the Atlantic to the Pacific
were represented by strong cams.
The Chicago A. A., with a we'll
balanced squad. won the senior cham
pionshipS on Saturday, with the Great
Lakes representatives second. Charlie
Pores. of the Pelham Bay. set "A new
record in the tive-mile run, travelling the
