NEW RECORD MAY
 BE BROKEN AGAIN
Claude Br,cty, Spssd Artist Be.
 lieIS He Can Shade Mirt

New York, June Ii N1It has taken nearly a quarter-century to cut the record for the 100-yard dash by one-flfth of . second-From Dan Kelly's first official 3 3-5 in 1908 to George Simpson's ! .-6 that is ex- pected to receive official approval but the new mark may not last more than a month.
 At least that is the conviction of Claude Bracey. the speed star of Rice Institute. Texas, who was run ner-up to Simpson in the famous record smashing race at Chicago last Saturday.
 Bracey, here today. believes the lOO-yard record will be cracke again, at the National A. A. U. championships in Denver, July s-4-5. and he has high hopes of being the sprinter to do the cracking.
 The sprint field for the big title meet will be the best ever gathered together. in Bracey's belief. as we'll as that of his coach. the veteran Ernie Hjertberg. even though it now seems likely that pulled tendon will keep Simpson out of this com petition. Bracey expects to find ar- rayed against him such stars as Ed die Tolan. of Michigan; Frank Wy koff of Glendale, Calif.: Russell Sweet of the Olympic club. San Francisco: Karl Wildermuth oi Georgetown. and Percy Williams, the curly .haired Canadian who wearl the Olympic sprint crown.

Bracey is especially anxious again to match strides with Williams, who beat the Texan in the Olympic semi- finals.
 Williams is the fastest finisher lever saw" said Bracey. in tribute to the great Canadian.
 some of the matches at Chicago caught Simpson in as low as 9 3-l0,' Hjertberg pointed out. and Bracey was barely foot behind him. Given favorable conditions. the record may be cut to 1-S at Denver" Yet it wasn't % long ago that coaches and officials generally re- sarded 3 2-5 for the 100" as next to impossible. feeling that tho limit of human speed has b. en reached.
 "Bracey. although big and rangy. is better man at the 100 than the e20," Hjertberg continued. T think he can beat anybody, Simpson in- cluded, at the shorter distance. The Ohio runner won last Saturday be- cause of better start. He was los ing ground to Bracey at the finish. And that was the first time Simpson ever beat the Texas boy"
 Bracey has one more year of col- lege competition in which to seek additional sprint laurels. He has inn proved steadily under Hjertberga coaching. Extra weight has helped him this year. A six-footer. he nov scales around 16O pounds. He has . 17-year-old brother. who is feet 2 inches tall and also possessed ot sprint ability.
 The Texas star is here to com ! pete in an invitation benefit meet al the Yankee Stadium next Monday evening when his competition in the sprints will include Eddie Tolan ot Michigan. After that he will start training for the national ampion- ships.

Borg,sportsman extraor- dinaire. whose silhouette appeared in the newspAper-The New Britain Herald-last evening, and just as the editor thought the darned con- test was going stale. he picked on an exceptionally popular young man which brought the column dipping back to its place in the sun. J. Hen- ry Roraback, the conviyial head of the Connecticut Light & Power, should be proud. indeed. to have . gentleman with the characteristics of Legionnatre Borg, in the same business and political roll call as himself. The letter mentions the Hoover club, but that doesn't make any difference. even if the silhouette editor did lean toward the wet plat form of Al. Smith in the last elec- tien-he (the editor) ain't mad at 'em any more. 50, therefore, Al Borg gets . writeup which should have every indication of going in the family album along side of his wonderful war record.
 Walter Schwartz of 22 Lincoln street gets the dollar for his letter which packs . neat set of compli- ments. eclipsing those written by the suave hand of the complimentary editor" who stays up nights think ing verbal bouquets to throw at New Britain's star settlers. Here's the letter, from the nimble type writer of our magic friend.
 The gentleman whose, silhouette appeared in last nights Herald is none other than Arvid Wal demar Borg. the genial commercial manager of the Connecticut Light & Power Company.
 Besides making housewives happy by selling them the latest in electric cal appliances and Frigidaires he plays a mean game of golf.

Over around the Shuttle Meadow Club today. youll hear his name on every tongue for they arc boosting him for state president of an organ ixation of which he has been the fead in New Britain. Of course. the editor. who is very fond of this coming young man. would like to do his modest bit toward putting one of our local men over the top to secure the state honor. The entire bunch is over at the club now. ex- changing votes. and by tomorrow. we will hear whether our local man comes through with flying colors. Now for few hints n to how he makes his hvehood-he's . travelling man, representing an East Berlin concern that recently built an ad- dition. 70 diligently did he put over the product which pours forth from that institution which has its parent factory right here in New Britain.
