the defeat.
The hoofing carnival ushered in
an abbreviated but event-crammed
commencement week end at the
school and as long as visiting alumni
and track fans went away happy
the Hilltoppers were satisfied. A
tidy sum of $415 was collected for
the Army Relief Fund.
Sometime during the afternoon
cotton-haired Bill Hulse. a long
drink of water from New York Uni
versity, reeled off a world record
for the odd, 23-mile distance, shat
tering the late Mel Sheppard's mark
that stood from 1910. The rest of
the athletes joined in the chorus
with eight additional marks for the
new field.
Hulse had a special invitation to
the party. He came along with Les
.MacMitchell. a pretty good runner,
who had his eye on the ?. mile
mark owned by Paul Moore of STAN
ford University. They alternated
pacing one another but where Mac
Mitchell succeeded in helping his
teammate to new laurels he missed
fire on his own try. He was more
than seven full seconds short of
Moore's time of 2:58.7.
BlOzis' Main Effort Fails.
AL Blozis also failed in his attempt
TO boost his own 16-pound shot-put
figure, finishing with&a heave of 81
feet, 7 inches, but he co-operated in
the record-breaking by tossing a
couple Of glorified marbles, later
identified as 8 and 12-pound shots,
to world marks. He tossed the
heavier weight 62 feet, Az inches.
and the lighter, 72 feet, 7 inches.
The latter events were added at
fractions and didn't count in the
team scoring, so big AL had to share
high-scoring honors with Fordham's
Bob Stuart, each winning two
events.
Halfway through the afternoon
festivities were halted while 1t. Bill
Finn, retiring president of the stu
dent body. and Rev. John j. Kehoe,
S. j, faculty moderator of athletics,
presented Blozis with scroll, signed
by his teachers and members of the
graduating class. and war bond in
token Of their fondness for the good
natured young giant and their ap-
probation of the athletic glory he
earned for Georgetown.
AIS second victory was achieved
IN the discus with a peg of 153 feet.
8 inches, good 13 feet off the field
record he hung up earlier this spring
against Temple.
Stuart, pinch-hitting for ailing
John Campbell, Fordham ace who
was unable to appear because of a
pulled leg muscle. captured both
sprints, scoring hair-splitting VIC
tory over Georgetown's Hugh Short
In the 220. The judges almost needed
razor to separate them at the
finish. but Stuart, scampering home
in the good time of :22.3 on the
rain-soaked track, just managed to
stave off Shorts closing bid.
AL Hayden 440 Victor.
A Washington boy who transferred
his allegiance to New York came
home ahead of his field in the 440-
yard run, won by f1axen-haired AL
Hayden, a former Central High
School star. Hayden shattered the
field record with a nice effort of
500 seconds, going into the lead on
the first turn and holding his ad-
vantage all the way around. Jim
Mewshew challenged him on the
last turn but it was Charley Williams
who made Hayden pull open the
throttle with stretch run that must
have closed or 6 yards between
the two.
williams didn't have enough
steam left to catch the Ram
youngster, however, and Hayden
had plenty to spare at the wire.
Hulse's race was a steady, well
paced affair. MacMitchell left the
barrier with the rest but slowed
down to a dog-trot after the first
so yards, permitting himself to be
Tapped. That left Midshipman
Charley Haven of the Naval Acad-
emy to chase Hulse around the
strip and MacMitchell picked up
his teammate after approximately
$50 yards and brought home.
Hulse employed the same strategy
when MacMitchell went after the
other mark but was not as expert
as Les and went too far in front to
be of much value. MacMitchell,
possibly sensing that he would run
himself out before hitting the home
stretch if he tried to follow Hulse's
burning pace, used his own judg-
ment on the back stretch of the
second and final lap and couldn't
generate enough power in the final
220 even to threaten the record.
