NEW YORK, Feb. 2 tP-M2king hi;
American indoor debut, Dr. OttC
! Peltzer, German char ion, scored 6
sensational victory over nine American
rivals in a 1000 yard race that fea-
tured the Millrose track and fielc
carnival tonight.
Yielding at the last minute tC
demands of American athletic author
tiles that he enter open competition
instead of special event, DR.. Peltzer
demonstrated his prowess on unfa-
miliar ground by outracing the Illinois
A. G. veteran, Ray Dodge, in thrill
ing nip and tuck battle over the last
three laps.
Caught in a jam at the start, after
the gun was fired by Mayor Jimmy
Walker, the slim, blond German
threaded his way out OF the pack
took the lead after three laps had
been covered and then fought it out
with Dodge for the last hail OF the
race. The lead shifted back and
forth as the two rivals, Teuton
and American, battled it out, but
Peltzer had more stuff in reserve
and won by six yards.
A crowd of more than $4,000 spec
tators, on their feet yelling from
start to finish gave DR.. Peltzer a
terrific ovation for his gameneSs as
well as ability in triumphing under
adverse circumstances over so large
a field. The crowd stood with barred
heads as the band played the German
national anthem after the race.
DR.. Peltzer was timed in 2 minutes,
18 3-5 seconds, close to six seconds
behind the worlds indoor record held
by Lloyd Hahn, but under the racing
conditions it was considered a bril-
liant performance.
Lloyd Hahn, Americas premier
miller, sped tc easy victory over foul
