MAPLEWooD, N. H., August %.
Ava Visitors to the Maplewood
horse show were recounting the
stoicism CT a young rider who had
proved his right TO kinship with
the Granite State.
His name is Henry Pageau, II,
Of Bethlehem, and he was entered
in the riding class for children un-
der IL.
= With the others he trotted into
the ring. He was not one Of the
winners; no coveted ribbon was
pinned on him.
But after the judging was all
over he dropped from his horse,
clutching his right arm.
When friends examined 1t they
found he had ridden with q safety
pin an inch through his flesh
a careless stableboy had pinned it
through his arm In fastening his
number on his sleeve.

Nichellini Is Fastest.


WHO Is the fastest man among the
w A former college stars now drill
ing for the game against the Bears?
Coaches Spears and Madigan staged
q shuttle relay race to decide that
question Monday morning. The speed
lest player over 100 yards was AL
Nichellini, the st. Mary's College half
back.
Nichellini can run the century in
e:09.7 in track toys and around 10 fiat
in foot ball trappings. Weighing 2o5,
the galloping Gael is no set-up for
any tackler. The second fastest man
among the All-Stars is Kostka, and
then come Cotton" Warburton of
Southern California, Bill Shepherd of
Western Maryland and Don Hutson,
the Alabama end. Among the inside
linemen Bill Bevan, Minnesota, and
George Barclay Of North Carolina are
the feet feet. The slowest man Is
Bill Lee, the 250-pound tackle from
Alabama, but what William lacks in
speed he makes up In strength and
aggressiveness. The An-Star coaches
have about decided to start Kostka,
Shepherd and Nichellini against the
Bears, and when those three 60 into
action the professionals will think
they are caught in q combination
earthquake. monsoon and thunder
storm.

CRACK TRAPSH0TS
SEEK TITLE TODAY
Grand American Handicap
Field Drawn From All
Over Country.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
" ANDALIA, Ohio, August a.
" When the shadows lengthen
" down here in the Miami VAL
ley late today a new trap
shooting champion will be crowned
the winner of the grand American
handicap.
The chances are that-as in each
of the previous IS clay-target classics
the new king of the traps will come
from oblivion to the highest honor
the sport can bestow.
There is no such thing as a ia
vorite. The high-average shooters are
pushed back as far as Is yards from
the trap, while the lesser lights are as
close as Is yards, the idea being to
give every one an even chance.
ONLY once has shooter won from
" beyond the 23-yard marker, Wal
ter Beaver of Berwyn, Pa, doing ii
from the Is two years ago, ard then
coming within a target of repeating
last year. No one has ever taken the
title twice.
They come from everywhere, these
grand American champions There
have been winners from New YORK
City and others from places like Wood
River, Nebr.; Trezevant, Tenn; Orc
nogo, Mo-; Derrick City, Pa, and
PaScoag, r. I.
Once a 14-year-old boy from Texas
was the victor, and a 74-year-old
Ohioan who won almost a decade age
took his turn again today.
THE preliminary handicap was
staged yesterday. 1t was Roy
Zweiner, from out in Blooming Prairie
Mimi, who won. Zweiner shot the
best score of his life, 80 out of 100.
He was forced to defeat Steve
Crothers of Chestnut Hill, Pa. in q
shoot-off, "a to 20, to clinch tbs
Iaurels.
