Flying Cop Beats N. Y. A. C..
Star in 100 Yard Cham
pionship in Fast Time.
CUTBILL EASY WINNER
With Ray Out, Boston A. A.
Champions Runs Off With
1000 Yard Special.

Bob McAllister, one of Commissioner
Enright's sturdy patrolmen, is one of
the fastest sprinters in the country.
He proved this last night to the salts
faction of more than 1000 followers
of athletics al the annual games of the
Samaclar A. c. at the Twenty
Regiment Armory. He not only ran
fast; he beat class, for among those
ne left behind was young Bernie Wei
fers. the star of the New York Ath-
letic Club and holder of several cham
pionship titles.
The Flying Cop as followers of the
sport call McAllister. stepped over the
board floor in the 100 yard Metropoli-
tan championship in 10 seconds, only
one-fifth of a second behind the worlds
ade ago by Alva Meyer. 1t was the
fastest time ever made in the titular
race. but because there were only two
timers instead of three. it will not be
officially accepted by the Amateur Ath-
letic Union.
Wefers finished second, two yards
back and five yards in front of I.
Wood, a sturdy negro sprinter. repre-
senting the s.. Christopher A. c.
The defeat of Wefers was a huge sur
prise 70 followers of the New York A. c.
athletes and a vast majority of those
present But II wasn't TO the host Of
policemen present or to a crowd Of ath-
letic experts who had been watching
McAllister race this season. Wefers
won this title last year along with
host of others and came back this season
and. running as strong IL not stronger
than ever, retained his Championship
titles at several distances. But In al
most every titular and special event this
season he was compelled to do his
lnightiest to beat McAllister. The pair
measured strides seven times on equal
terms, and 1t was not until a few nights
ago in Newark that the Flying Cop sue
ceeded in beating him. But after each
defeat veteran experts predicted Meal
lister would prove Wefers's master as
soon as he learned to steady himself at
the start Until last night he always
seemed nervous and was too anxious TO
be Off, with the result that he invariably
suffered penalty.
