Face Keen Opposition in An
nual Championships.
COE SHINES IN SHOT PUT
Newman of Evander Childs
Improving in 100 Yard Dash
and May Surprise.

Out OF the high school novice tract
eral new stars who promise to make
things interesting for the established
contenders in the annual championships
for THE NEW YORK HERALp's medals
and cups on June TO- The superiority
OF Manual Training, which won the
meet with "a points, while Stuyvesant,
favorite for the title. got only IL. adds
some strength to the threat which the
Brooklyn school is making-that it Will
surprise Stuyvesant and retain the
. championship.
The field events brought out some
strong talent which may upset the dope
In the championships Coe of Erasmus
Hall came through with a fine put of
~ feet 3 inches in the shot and must
be recognized as contender for June
10. In the running broad jump Hou-
stedt OF Bryant won with 20 feet 2&
inches. and his team mates declared that
he3was not vet in form. Greenberg of
Commercial did feet inches in the high
jump and with two more weeks of work
will threaten for q third place or per-
haps even better.
A. Newman OF Evander Childs. who
took the 100 yard dash in 10 AS sec
onds. will not bother the sensational
Hussey. but he will make trouble for
some OF the lads who figured on taking
places behind the Stuyvesant streak.
Newman has been coming along great
guns and may be counted on to clip a
fifth of a second off his mark of last
Saturday when the boys get together
for THE NEW YORK HERALD's medals
next month.
Gunther Looks Good.
Gunther OF Manual Training made a
great showing for a novice in the fur
long and looked as il he could be
brought along for faster time for the
championships. His 23 AS seconds was
fne considering the condition OF the
track. which had been made soggy by
two hours of rain.
Two new contenders came through In
the junior das shes r. Smith of Norris.
whose 10 As seconds took the hun
dred," Is stepping along in fine form
and comedies nobody ANYTHING for the
tnnior title. Denton of Commercial,
who won the junior furlong. is another
youngster who will have to be watched,
as he did not get going until a fort
night ago and still was up TO 23 As
seconds in the novice games.
Among the stars who worked at the
Brooklyn Athletic Field on Saturday
before and after the novice meet was
Harold I.anee of Manual the half mile
indoor champion. Lange said that he
had decided definitely to remain out of
the half mile in the championships and
TO take fling at the mile.
Lange Threatens Upset.
Lange declared that he realized that
Sig Greenafege of Flushing. the mile
title holder. was running in tiptop form.
but he smiled and insinuated that he
might have 1t in him to record an upset,
gallagher of st. Benedict's Prep seems
. TO have the Indian sign on Greenafege.
and perhaps I can turn the trick too
added Lange.
Judging from reports from all the
schools there Is concerted attack on
the mile champion. Greenafege says
he Is not worrie d-the more the merrier.
He got Off to a bad outdoor start in the
~; Y. u. games. but won at the Prince
ton and Yale interscholastics. Greena-
fege vs. not In his best shape and Is not
running miles up to the times he made
last season. so the attacking party may
dislodge that particular champion.
