r EW YORK, February o.
Faced by two great milers, the
leading schoolboy athletes of


the East set up II new records
and equalled another this afternoon
in the National A. A. U. indoor high
and prep school track and field cham
pionships at Madison Square Garden.
Racing over the same boards where
the country's greatest milers have set
tied their arguments, Vincent Braun
of st. Benedict's, Newark, N. j., and
Ray Trail from Mount Pleasant High
of Schenectady turned in two of the
fastest miles ever credited to a school,
boy over an indoor track.
Braun's performance was by far the
most remarkable, however. He stepped
off the distance in 4:25.7 to clip six
and one-half seconds off the record
of 1922 he established in winning
the prep school title last year.
Shows Great Form.
7 OOKING much like the smooth
striding Gene Venzke, the Jersey
schoolboy reeled off the first quarter in
"a seconds, slowed down for the next
half mile and then sped over the last
440 yards in 62.7 to leave his rivals
far behind.
Trail, national interscholastic cross
country champion, was clicked in
Abs to capture the high school
championship, which was run in three
heats with the fastest times determln-
ing the final placings. His time bet
tered by nearly five seconds the record
of 1884 made by Bill Murch of Man
chester, Conn, last year.
Six other records were shattered
and one equalled by the prep school
athletes as a well-balanced team from

DISCOVERY, CHOICE,
IS EIGHTH IN RACE
Winner Is Pressed by Time
Supply, ACKNOWLEDGMENT
Take by Mutuels.
(continued From Page Ally

In the bitter stretch fight that re-
suited in claims of foul being lodged
by Tommy Luther, who rode Time
Supply, and Maurice Peters, who had
the mount on Rosemont.
Winner Is Third Choice.
Top Row, third choice in the bet
ting behind Discovery and Time Sup
ply, paid better than 6 to 1 in the
pari-mutuels, his figures being $14.80
to win, $40 to place and $3.50 to
show. Time Supply, Virginia bred
with plenty of hackers. paid $4.20 to
place and 81 to show, while Rose
mont was overlooked at % to in the
wagering and paid SO 40 to show.
Top Row, piloted by the brilliant
little Idaho jockey, Wayne D. Wright,
covered the mile and q quarter in
1904 lis, two full seconds behind the
time registered by Azucar over a far
better track last year. The track to-
day, however, was tough, drying -out
affair, far from what 1t was at this
time year ago when another great
champon-C. v. Whitneys Equipoise
failed even as Discovery did today
and finished seventh.
The race was not only the greatest
that little Wayne Wright ever won,
but it came at time when he was
in the worst slump Of his career.
Nosed out In the jockey race last
year by Apprentice Stephenson,
Wright, a great favorite with Mary
landers, had found it almost impos-
sible to get going this year at Hialeah.
Profitable Race for Wright.
But he came out here a week or
more ago to ride Top Row and all
the grief in the world is forgotten
in the pot of gold earned this after
noon. For winning today, Wright
gets 10 per cent of the $104, 900 purse
Baroni earned for his victory, and
in addition draws down the s1,750
prize which the ultra-swanky Los
Angeles Turf Club awards the win
ming rider.
The total output in purses for the
big race, including all the various
bonuses, was $135,700. OF this, Time
Supply's owner drew down $4,000,
Rosemont earned $4,000 for his con-
nections and the wealthy Fred M.
Alger Of Detroit picked up $2,500 as
o reward for what Azucar did.
1t was the third time in five races
that Top Row had prevailed over
Discovery, but a lot of folks are say
ing tonight that the way they were
weighted, Time Supply was the best
horse this afternoon.

Jockeys "Play for Keeps"

THE Carreaud horse, which was
- bred on the old Mclean estate
near Leesburg, was great piece of
horse flesh today. Of poorly for a
horse that holds the six-furlong rec
ord at Havre de Grace, Narragansett
and Bay Meadows, Time Supply was
eleventh at the halfway mark. Here
he got a break when Tommy Luther
found a hole on the inside and drew
up to third turning into the stretch
But from there on, Time Supply
might have been better of if Man
Mountain Dean had been aboard him
According to Luther, Rosemont cut
across in front of him and caused
the resulting jam. However Maurice
Peters, who had the leg up on Rose
mont, also claimed a foul, insisting
the dirty work was done by Top Row.
Its q wonder that monkey business in
the stretch didn't fill the hospital with
weak hearts, but apparently the boys
play for keeps when there's that much
money at stake.
Top Row, bought a couple of years
ago for $500, ran a great race, even
II there are plenty who attach a faint
10 his victory. He, too, did most of
his running at the end, for the early
part OF the race was dominated by a
bunch of speedsters like Preeminent,
Singing Wood and Whopper which
were out there to run away with the
big purse if possible.
Rodeo Stuff in Stretch.
TOP ROW was twelfth in the IS
- horse field at the quarter and no
better than seventh at the three
quarter mark. Turning into the
stretch, little Wright began working
like a mad man and it was at this
point that all the rodeo stuff was
staged.
When the race got under way, Pre-
eminent dashed to the front quickly
but no one got excited about that for
he was IN there only to help make
the pace for the diversified Whopper
He did, the only 3-year-old in the
field, was second, with Singing Wood
and Whopper close up.
Discovery, which closed at 3 to 3
with about $4,000 on his nose, passed
the stands the first time running

Accuracy Is Uncanny.

quickly ran up commanding lead
and throughout the first half held
the spectators, packed on both sides
Of the gym, somewhat spellbound with
their accurate shooting, no less than
30 per cent of their shots finding the
hoop and most of the goals coming
from beyond the snowbird area.
To those who like their basket ball
brilliantly played, Eastern's perform
ance was rare dish, but a couple
Of excited, scrappy little girl teams
swiped the show completely for the
hundreds there who thrilled to spirited
conflict.
Fredericksburg, Va, High, in scor-
ing its twenty-fifth consecutive VIC
tory in fiapper competition, defeated
Sherwood High of Montgomery
County, u to 20.
Fredericksburg, unbeaten in nearly
TWO years, was expected to win, but
not to receive the opposition that
came from the comparatively green
team of Sherwood, a combination
coached by Catherine Barnesley,
which numbers only one player with
experience extending back a season.

Lelanders Change Tactics.

REIHESDA-CHEVY CHASE was
caught by surprise with Eastern's
sensational shooting, which began
with four straight field goals fred
from dozen to 20 feet distant. They
weren't hurried pot shots, either.
Clever manipulation of the ball in
variably gave the marksman an un.
hindered line to the basket.
The Bethesda Chevy Chase coach,
Tony Kupka, who one of these days,
we believe, will make a name in the
basket ball world, ordered change of
tactics in the second quarter, and
when the Lelanders switched from a
zone to a man-for-man defense,
Eastern was curbed perceptibly. The
Guyonites drove closer to the basket
before attempting to tally, and sin.
gularly had less success with the set
up opportunities than with their long
loopers.
With little hope of victory, but de-
termined to make it a contest, Be-
thesda- Chevy Chase played more
aggressively in the second half and
pulled up close enough to leave a
slight doubt e. very slight doubt) of
the issue.
The first quarter ended with the
count at TIA; the second with the
score 1912, and the third brought
1t to 1922.

Scheible High Scorer.

EIERY Red Scheible, Eastern guard,
caught hot hand in the first
half and rang up six field goals. He
was the high scorer of the game with
IS points, trailed by Clinton Quantrille
of Eastern who scored II. The only
sophomore dependable on the team.
Quantrille more than held his own
with several of the veterans who have
lofted the colors of Eastern to ma
tional prominence. Soon it will defend
the Eastern States championship b
tournament at Glen Falls, N. Y.
Bethesda Chevy Chase battled
against physical odds. Only one of it's
players, Woody Putnam, a guard,
measured up to the Eastern standard
in size, and Woody used his bountiful
heft to the fullest advantage. In de-
fensive work under the basket he was
especially effective and on the attack
suffered none in comparison with
some of the Eastern sharpshooters.
Frank Lozupone. Leland captain,
led the Marylanders with five field
goals, two of which were character
istic throws from near the middle of
the floor.
