Coach Jack Faber had but III

to stop training following the 81
defeat at the hands of Johns Hop
kins on May 26. Even though Mt
Washington Club of Baltimore had
remained indicated, there was nc
apparent reason for Maryland to
toss In the towel.
The Old Liners had the best col.
lege record and Mt. Washington had
not played any too strenuous a
schedule, so just why Maryland end,
ed training. with the prospect left
of going to the Olmpics, is quite
mystifying. The Tip had been
circulated that had Maryland been
named, it would have rejected the
selection on the grounds that the
players would have to keep in
training for too long a period.

1.-The Flying Cop" was mag
nificent indoor performer, and from
100 to $50 yards he was the fastest
man on the boards. Even Murchi-
son at his best was hardly match
for MacAllister over a hundred
yards inside. He was able to run
ten seconds, without starting blocks
and without spikes, almost when.
ever he pleased, and once or twice
he turned in 8 As second hundred
inside. That is virtually "flying"
and he was not misnamed by New
York's Finest"
The second name that I have been
overlooking is that of Wesley Fos-
ter, of Washington State College.
Foster, as a school boy did great
things. He ran brilliantly at Stage
Field, in the Chicago interscholastic
championships. and he turned in
some brilliant performances in prep
circles in Washington. AS a fresh
man at Washington State he was
well "in the money" and after that
he seemed to fade out of the picture.
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1928-06-05

But whether it is official or not,
it does prove that Foster is right
again. Inasmuch as the Pacific
Coast Conference championships
are to be fought out in Montana
within a few days, it is not at all
unlikely to assume that he will give
Borah and Draper, of Southern
California, a real run in the sprints.
Foster will have the advantage Of
being on home ground while the
Southern Californians will be in the
midst of a hard trip.
If Foster should defeat either of
these boys, it is very probable that
he will be a serious contender in
the final Boston tryouts. Foster
has great strength. and this coupled
with his natural speed, has made
him the outstanding sprinter of the
Northwest.
