GOODV|LL|E IS
DUE FOR TEST
ON TRACK
Chicago Phenolm Faces First
Real Trial in Racing
Against Harold Jones.

Time-honored tradition has it that
the national track and field cham
pionship meet of the Amateur Ath.
letic Union, is invariably the med
ium through which one or more
athletic stars burst forth into
Olympic brilliance.
Last year it was De Hart Hub
bard. the colored athlete who now
represents the University of Michi-
gan, who came from nowhere to
startle the athletic sharps with a
brace of jumping performances that
stamped him as one of the greatest
performers in his line that the ath-
letic world has ever seen.
The 1924 Nationals at Chicago
next month will probably prove no
exception to this tradition and
speculation is rife in athletic. cir
cles as to who the new star win
be. Out in the Middle West Eugene
Goodwillie, of University High
School. Chicago. is looked upon as
the most likely candidate for new
ly-won fame in the big A. A. U.
meeting.
Goodwillie. who will represent the
Chicago A. A. at the Stage Field
classic, is reputed to be the fast
est and most consistent sprinter
developed in the Middle West in a
decade. The Chicago checkers have
credited him with 3-5 seconds for
the hundred twice this spring
and it is claimed that his normal
gait on a fast path is mine four
But Goodwil1ie, like Frank Hus-
sey, has yet to meet the acid test.
His sensational times have all
been made against rather mediocre
fields that he has been able to de-
feat by from four to eight yards.
The eighteen-year-old phenom is
due to bump into a real test as
early as next Saturday afternoon,
when he will strive to relieve Her
old Jones. of the Illinois A. c.. of
the Central Association 100-yard
title at the Mid Western Champion
ships at Detroit.
This race should furnish a real
line on Goodwillie's ability as a
sprinter. If he takes the fleet
Jones, as the eliminates believe he
will, then the University High
youngster must be rated as a can
didate for stardom in the short dis
lance races and for a berth on the
Paris Olympic team next summer.

In Section B. the Mohawk
Dominican, Lyceum and, Shamrock
teams supply the thrills, with Boil
ing Field showing a burst of speed
now and then.
The Phils and Milans have shaken
off all other contenders in Section
c excepting the Comforter club,
and even the latter has little chance.
The American Legion holds the
distinction of being the only team
In the unlimited division without
defeat, the ex-Yanks having won
five. .Petworth has won five and
lost one and the Garfields have
won five and lost two.
Thus, the Legion holds an ad-
vantage over its two most formid-
able foes. but the advantage is far
from enough to be satisfying. One
Petworths or Garfields may grab
the Legion's much coveted posi-
ton. most likely Petworth.
When the Legion and Petworth
defeated the Garfield team in close
succession they made the outlook
none too promising for one of the
leading favorites TO win the city
championship. The Garfields have
done well to fight their way back.
Perhaps the hottest scrap in the
series Is to come I'm Section B.
Rivalry il intense among the

Dominican Lyceum also defeated
the Shamrocks in a championship
game. Next Monday the Mohawks
and Shamrocks will meet again and
another Mohawk triumph would
leave the Shamrocks with only al
desperate hope.
One OF next weeks outstanding
contests will be between the MilanS
and Pills, in Section c. Each team
has won five games and losC eone.
This contest will come close to
determining the Section c title
winner. At any rate, the winner of
the game will be guaranteed a tie
for first place.
: So, with not many more games to
be played, any team is a long shot
