With Pennsylvania
English School Has Four
Great Mile Runners for

NEW YORK, April east as 1t may
happen to be, the University of Penn

the international race at Queens club,
London, as second choice in any wise
money that is CHANGED on the result This
holds good for two reasons, TO wit: No
American distance runner is ever at his
best under climate conditions that pre-
vail in England. He should be there
many months before he attempts to race; ;
the Pennsylvania runners have been on
the ground matter of days. They Will
not be acclimated, or anything reason

to get inside 4:30 almost any time he

mile runners on the Other side but may
experience some difficulty in going the
full mile. Stsllard is the ace Of the
foreign array and has done IA 10 under
competent timing. On the face OF this
performance and others almost as con-

Brown. q great racer, has never demon

Jack Moran Of Chicago, one OF those
big rugged scrappers that doesn't win

will tangle with Chuck Virgins. this

Seeing Chuck Virgins tangle up in q
