N YEW YORK, May $50 far as
! the writer can see, no contro-
NJ verSy is threatened over the use
I 4 of the starting blocks for run
! ners which John Nicholson, the
accomplished track coach at Notre
! Dame has invented. These blocks are
used as braces for the feet, obviating
the necessity of runners digging for a
start. They are fastened into the
ground by three spikes, and are held
together by central spike, which the
runner straddles.
In South Bend the idea obtains that
the I. c. A. A. A. A. has frowned upon
the device, whereas the A. A. U. has
approved it. Neither idea is correct.
Neither body sees any fundamental OBJ
jections to Nicholson's blocks, other
than that records made in races in
which they were used might be Ques-
toned and even thrown out, on the
ground that the use of these blocks
might be construed as violating the rule
against artificial aids"
No official opinion on the matter has
come either from the 1. c. A. A. A. A
or the A. A. u. In a personal opinion
GustavuS Kirby, president of the ad-
visory board of the former organization,
merely expressed the fear that records
made through use of the blocks would
not be allowed Otherwise he has moth
ing against the device. On the con-
trary, he likes it.
It is certain. however that the blocks
will not be employed in the I. C. A. A.
A. A. meet this month, nor in the A. A.
u. meet at Denver in July. If, as re-
ported. the National Collegiate Athletic
Association permits their use in its
meet, it will be doing rather risky
thing.
And the reason will be this: Suppose
a sprinter, starting from the blocks,
tu-ns in 9 2-5 in the hundred. The N.
c. A. A. would submit this to the A.
A. u, and the chances all are, under
existing conditions, that it would not
be recognized, if only because the ma
tional body has not yet approved OF the
blocks. But assume for purposes OF
argument that the A. A. u. did accept
the time. Then the complication would
arise of having the International Ath-
letic Federation refuse to approve it on
the ground of artificial aid" when the
time was submitted to that body, as
would be necessary, for approval as
world record. So, as will be seen, the
complication in the situation is uni
yersal, not national.
In the opinion of Daniel Ferris, Sec
rotary of the A. A. u, Nicholson would
be wise If he waited until the National
A. A. U. convention next Winter and
then have this body authorize the use
of his blocks, which in all probability
it would be disposed to do. But def
mite, final action, even so, could not be
taken until the A. A. u. had sounded
the international federation and learned
how it would feel about approving
world records made from the starting
blocks.
It would seem to the writer that any
sane body must instantly recognize the
merits of Nicholson'S invention, and
that its acceptance is merely a ques-
ton, as Ferris believes of time. 1t
eliminates the necessity of individual
runners digging their holes and saves
time employed by officials in filling
treacherous holes thus dug :. At the
same time it insures all runners at all
times and Wnder every condition per-
1ectly fair starting condition.
