Ted Meredith Should Be
Able to Stage Comeback

tied Meredith should have no
trouble staging a comeback" said
Nate Cartmell in talking about the
chances of the balf-m mile champion
in his trial at Boston Saturday.
"Ie is only, young fellow, twenty.
seven years old, and II he has trained
as he knows how to train, be should
be leading the pack down the stretch
in the $50.
"Ted has been off the track for
some time and in order to get back
in good shape, he would have to
start all over again. He would have
to rebuild himself. This becomes
harder with every year, but If Ted
has done the job right and has had
the time to do It, he should be on
edge by the time he goes to the mark
in Boston"
