Fails to Draw Throngs.

COMETIMES at a school or college
- track and field meet the active par
ticipants will outnumber the spec
tators. This is proof positive that the
track and field sports are the most
salutary of all.
But as the year of the Olympic games
rolls around there is renewed activity
and renewed interest. not only in the
United States, but all over the world.
The names and records of the old
Olympic heroes have been lost, but the
later Olympic games have produced
almost as glamorous figures, whose rec
ords have been kept.
BY these records it can be demon
strated that the human race is getting
sWifter and stronger. You can go over
the records that have been kept since
the Olympic games have been revived
and you can satisfy yourself that
Olympiad by Olympiad they have been
developing swifter and stronger ath-
letes.
BY fractions of seconds they have
been shattering the old records for the
track sports, and by fractions of inches
or centimeters they have been excelling
the records of the field athletes. FIRE.
quently 1t has been contended that 1t is
a physical impossibility for any runner
to travel any faster in the shorter dis
tance races, but Olympiad by Olympiad
the impossible has been achieved.
In the jumps it has been maintained
frequently that the limit had been
reached for human beings, but always
year will show fractions of inches
added to a mark, which, when 1t was
made, was expected to staEd forever.
These facts do not tally with the no
ton that the human race is becoming
fiabbier with the years. Gagged by the
progression in the brief existence OF the
later Olympic games, the American
team of next year would have run
away with any of the teams that COM
peted in ancient Greece.

with a greater number OF points
than those of other countries, there
were times when it was nothing in the
nature of a walkover. In the Antwerp
gathering, in 1924, they were hard
pressed by the Firms. Paavo Nurmi
entered then, and that running ma
chine startled the world with his per-
formances in the long distance races:
At the same time gigantic Firms did
wonders in the field events.
At the last Olympic Games the
Americans did not do so well on the
track. AS q matter of fact, only one
Of the nat races was won by an Amer
lean. This runner was Ray Barnuu,

Corr's Plea To
 Come Before
 Superior Court
fUrmer PfaCfcing Lawyer Under $500 Bonds for Al. leged Use of Wrench on Nick BOiko-Later's Eye Injured and Impaired as Result of Blow

| The alleged disturbance took place on Saturday evening" May 8th. B6iko had been served notice that | he was not wanted either as visi- Itor or q boafder in the residence owned by Corr. The latter testified | that he had notified one of his ten- ants to keep him away from the place. On the Friday previous to the alleged hold-up and fight, MT Corr is said to have attempted to evict his tenant from the house and
 sustained a cut on the nose In juggling furniture.
 Corr on the witness stand in formed Judge John F. McGrath that when he returned home on the eve hing of May 8th and observed Boiko visiting friends he became suspi- cious. He went to his room and stretched himself on his bed to await developments. They came sooner than he expected. He claims | to have been attacked and knocked unconscious. He awoke to discover that his trousers and his money, $23, had been taken from him. As | he sat on the side of the bed at tempting to recuperate he said that he noticed the door of his room be- ling pushed open. He reached into ia closet and seized the wrench. When the intruder entered he struck him over the head. The unexpected visitor was Boiko. A mutual friend | of Corr and Boiko found both Of them unused up."
 Bofko denied taking money from Corr or having an argument with him. He was asleep when attacked and beaten over the head with the wrench. Owing to the seriousness of the charge the court remarked that it was evidently q case Tor the superior court to determine. The case of George Mitchell, 2s' of Boston was nolled. He was ar |rested here and turned over 10 tne police of that city on the charge or having violated his parole.
 A continuance until Saturday
 morning was granted in the case Of
 Frank w. Schanil. 36, of Piedmont street, charged with operating an automobile while under the tnnu- ence of liquor.
 William Bailey. 30. colored, of SS North Elm street, was given a sus- pended jail sentence on the charge of yagrancy. "If you are fouHd around Abbott avenue again you will 20 to jail for sixty days
 Does that mean, judgs. cant 20 up there anymore!" asked Bailey. :,
 "It's a hard sentence, I know" replied the judge, "but 1t means you stay away or go to jail"
 A few minutes before Bailey was arraigned two colored women were charged with intonicatton. They pleaded guilty. Where are they from ?" asked the court.
 Abbott avenue" was the answer of Prosecuting Attorney Emil Hum mel
 ''Thirty days in jail," was the courts quick reply. One of the ac- cused women was referred to dur ing the evidence as "Lon Clancy" Court and police officials have joined forces to rid a certain section of Ab- bolt avenue of a few undesirable residents, who have been involved in fights, theft cases, disorderiy house complaints and other charges.
