Paulist A. C. Runner Scores
Second Victory in 2 DAYS
at Games of F. o. I. F..
By Jack Masters

Jack Phillips, veteran long distancer
Of the Paulist A. c. registered his
second victory in as many days when
he fought his way through a field of
fifteen runners in the feature race at
ulmer Park, Brooklyn yesterday after
noon. The Paulist A. c. representa-
tive, who started from the 90-yard
mark made the running after the first
mile and his final squirt carried him
across the line fully two hundred yards
ahead OF Frank Titterton, Mohawk A.
c., the senior Metropolitan cross coun-
try champion.
The time was 10:07 2-5, which is
considered fast because Of the poor
condition Of the track.
Phillips, who began winning medals
on local tracks about ten years ago
showed a return to form at Newark
last Saturday when he captured the
two mile open at The games Of the
Diocesan Union from field Of Metro
politan athletes. He needed that race
to put him on edge for yesterdays
struggle, and from the manner in
which he flashed to the front, it would
appear that he has an excellent chance
to figure in the fixtures to be decided
during the coming indoor season.
The affair yesterday, which vas
held in conjunction with the annual
outing of the Brooklyn Friends Of
Irish Freedom was not productive of

of the Ninety second Street Y. M. II. A..

speciality and proved it by winning the

George Nolan, New York A. G., had
little difficulty taking first place in the
1,00c-yard run, although J. Misbach,
Loughlin Lyceum, who finished second,
