NURMI IS RUNNING
 AGAIN TONIGHT
RitOla and Other Stars in New
 York Meet
By The AssoeInted Pt.ss.

by llb AHnuNlhlSu fItbat
 New York, Feb. 8. Madison Square Garden will again house the track record shatterers tonight in the persons of Paayo Nurmi, Willie Ritola and Willie Plant. Nurmi backed by the faithful four of the Finnish American A. C., will be fea- tured in q run of l-i miles at the Western Union games, while Plant again will encounter the Italian champion of the Olympic games, ugo Frigierio. Ritola will partici- pate in a special J.000-mctre race.
 Paavo \tho peerless, despite his failure to break records in his last two races at tho Morningside A. c. games here and the Boston A. A. meet last week, still retains the cen ter of the stage, and Is expected to resume his known speed on the track whre he received his introduc- ton to indoor running. Perhaps he will forego attempts to set up new figures with his much heralded at- tempt to eliminate the last records of Joie Ray only few days away at the Wilco A. C. contests Saturday night.
 If he merely runs race against Ilmar Prim, August Pager, Gunnar Nilsson and Louis Tikkanen, as he has done in his last two starts. 1t will be the first time that he has competed in the Garden without es- tablishing new figures.
 Plant. the American walking champion, has adopted the Nurml scheme in setting out after the worlds best marks for his speciality. So far he has not adopted a stop watch but he has turned. to the planning of his races, and in his last record smashing walk at Boston he was within a fifth of second of his schedule. If Nurmi ever comes back to the United States after he once leaves it can well be imagined that he will find scores of American stars ambling about the board on sched- ule. if not winning races. It ap- pears to be the best way to make new time.

MAKES RECORD ON
 TEAM AND IN ARMY
Hank GoVdy Has Had Most Dra-
 matic Career Of All Players

New York, Feb S.-Hank GoWdy, veteran backstop of the New York Giants, whose play figured largely ln the 1924 pennant drive of the Mc- Grawmen, has had one of the most dramatic careers of any diamond hero.
 First springing to fame decade ago in the memorable worlds serles in which the Boston Braves toppled the mighty Philadelphia Athletics, Gowdy gained more attention through his war record, then came back last season to help the Giants win their fourth straight pepnant and give the Washington Senators a desperate world series battle.
 Gowdy was the first major league player 10 join the Colors when the United States declared war on Ger many He enlisted as a buck pri- vate but rose to the rank Of ser aeant, served with distinction and had the honor of having the gov ernment name one of it's largest athletic fields "Gowdy Field.'
 Cowdy was born in Columbus, O., S5 years ago, Like all American boys he came to love the national pastime as youth and he dreamed of world series heroes and the fas- cinating applause of the multitudes when he was a growing youth in his early teens.
 His first organized baseball as signment was with the Lancaster team of the Ohio State league in 1908 Then he shipped to the Southwest when Dallas sought his services. He received his first big league call in 1910 when the Giants purchased him from Texas. But he was traded 10 Boston the same year without trial.
 Boston farmed Gowdy to the Buff falo Internationals and then called him back in 1914. Baseball history is full of the accounts of Gowdys s part with George Stallings' Miracle team" which dashed the champion Slllp dlllplllOuS Dl lllt HlhlCtlto ullt won q worlds title in four successive games.
 During the 1914 playing cam paign Gowdy batted only .943 for the Braves, yet he came up in the world series against the veterans of Connie Mack's staff, Coombs, Plank and Bender, and hit .j45. His timely batting won the series for the Braves and the records show Gowdy as the 1914 hero.
 During his nine years at Boston. Gowdy hit for a grand average of .260. He came back to the Giants again in 1923 and in his first year l, in metropolitan harness GoTdy hit for an average of 1925, the greatest in his career.
 Gowdy stepped on his mask in a crisis of the seventh game of the 1924 world series with Washington and missed the foul that gave the Senators another chance and tho series, But this mishap, tragic though 1t was, failed to dim Gowdy's previous good work.
