Athletes and trainers from all parts Of
the world were today still discussing yes
terday's 800 meter race which was declar-
Ell 10 be the greatest ever run. Lawson
Robertson, one Of the coaches Of the
American team, said no such field ever
competed before and that II was the
fastest half mile ever run, considering the
slow track. All agreed that if the race
had been run at the Harvard stadium Or
at Franklin Field the worlds record would
have been broken Many thought that
Earl Eby Of the Chicago A. A., who finish
ed second, would have won if he had had
another week Of training. Hill, Of Eng
land, won.
at was the hardest race to run and
lose that / ever was in, said Eby. The
first quarter was run in 54M seconds, Ike
the 440 in America My legs ached like
the toothache at the end Of the first lap,
the first time in my running career that /
ever experienced such a sensation. i was
absolutely blind coming up the stretch
and could not see Hill / could only feel
him when our elbows touched | must
take of my hat 70 Hill, who ia one Of the
most wonderful half milers | ever saw
or heard Of. !"
Patrick J. Ryan, Loukhlin Lyceurn,
New York, easily took first place in the
qualifying round Of the l6-pound hammer
throw today. His throw was 52.83
meters. b. Bennett, Chicago A. A., was
second with 1923 meters
Others 10 qualify were &. Lind, Sweden,
48 meters; Svensson, Sweden, 47.29 me-
ters; NJ. J. McGrath, New York A. O.,
1867; and n. Linde, Sweden, 44.S8L.
J. NJ. McEachern, Olympic Club, San
Francisco, who was seventh, with 44.70,
did not qualify.
Ryan appeared in the arena with baggy
black trousers and coat over his throwing
togs, looking like a huge mountain even
among the other big fellows. As his turn
came to throw he would calmly toss of
the coat, slip his suspenders down and
step out Of the trousers, swing few times
and heave the hammer far beyond most Of
the others.
McGrath has bad knee which he
strained in practice today and il is feared
he may be forced to remain out Of the
56-pound weight event
