Discus Event in Memory
of Martin Sheridan Is
Added to Programme
By A. c. Cavagnaro

A handicap discus throwing contest,
in memory of Martin ]. Sheridan, who
conceived the idea of Field Days for
the New York Police Department, will
feature the track and field programme
of the annual two-day carnival Of the
"city's finest" the first of which will
take place at the Sheepshead Bay
Speedway next Saturday afternoon.
The second will be held July 26. Every
prominent A. A. u. athlete in the met
ropolitan district will aid the cause.
Many champions are entered in the
1,000-yard handicap run, the only open
event scheduled.
The Police Department boasts of
many star athletes who will be seen
in competition in the various events.
Such world-famed cop athletes az
Pat Mcdonald, regarded as the best
shot putter IN the universe; Leuten-
ant Matt J. McGrath, who fiings the
16-pound hammer with the ease of a
many duels over the hurdles; Bill
Tighe, who, although nearing sixty, is
as fleet as many youngsters, and Egon
Erickson, who can consistently jump
over six feet, are some who will exhibit
their prowess.
While track and field sports will mold
a prominent place on the programme,
there will be sports OF other descrip-
tions. What should prove one of the
most popular events the first day is the
ten-mle automobile race. Among
those who will be al the wheels Of
their speed creations are Ralph de
Palma, Dario Resta, Howard Wilcox
CASTOR Chevrolet and Ralph milford.
De Palma raced against the four-mile
world record at last years games and
clipped five seconds from the mark
The department was unable to show
its respect to the memory of the be-
loved Sheridan last year, for the
Olympic hero died after the list OF
events for the games had been COM
pleted. However. 1t was then stated
that the man who held all records for
throwing the discus would not be for
gotten in The 1919 carnival. Sheridan
gave his life in the performance of his
duty, being taken down with pneu-
monia white doing secret war work for
the Police Department. He died aftel
seven days OF illness.
Young policemen win vie with old
ones for glory In several contests
ouly those who have completed twenty
or more years Of service in the de-
pa nrtineut are eligible to test their
speed. The corpulent blnecoats have
also been provided for, as those weigh
