CATAL0N, FILIPINO, IS,
SENSATION IN SPR|NTS

NEW YORK, April "A formi-
dable rival for Charles Paddock and
other American sprinting stars has
been uncovered in the PHILIPPINES.
according to word from athletic au-
thorities In Manila.
The new track sensation is For
tunato Catalon. an eighteen-year-ol
high school youth, who was credited
with running 100 yards in As Sec
onds on three consecutive days at
recent tryouts for the 1923 far east
ern games. Five watches clocked
Catalon each day and several of them
caught him in 8 3-6 seconds, the
world record.
Catalon, who won the 100 and 200
yard dashes at the far eastern games
in 1921, will be sent to the Olympics
In 1924 to test his speed with Amer
ican and European stars. His per-
formance. 1t was said. has stimulated
Filipino interest in sending a team
to Paris.
Catalon's performances are vouched
for by Fred England. former Uni

the player who Is on third with the

and puts down error. If the scorer
had been watching the ball more
closely he might have seen 1t take a
hop over the hands of the shortstop.
That might either have been due
to the accumulated speed with which
the ball was travelling or it might
have been the result OF an uneven
