Cahber Of Play H but Tight Races Seen as Majors Gir
Dodds' Mile Record
Laid 10 New Kick
In Last Quarter

| By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Mar. 13.-Gilbert
Dodds, Boston's student parson who
has travelled more faster miles in
doors than any other man, finally
has run his way into the track and
field record book.
Giving his outstanding exhibition
on the boards since bursting into
the spiked-shoe limelight two years
ago, the bespectacled Dodds lowered
the world standard for the classic
distance to 4:07.3 in the Columbian
Mile at the Knights of Columbus
games in Madison Square Garden
Saturday night.
The performance, achieved with
out being pushed by any of his
three opponents, knocked one-tenti1
of a second off the competitive rec
ord set up by the great Glenn Cum
ningham in 1888 and since equaled
twice by Chuck Fenske and once by
Leslie MacMitchell.
Glenn'S Mark Not Official,
There still is on the books Cum
ningham's 4:044, but it is listed as
noteworthy performance since it
was made on an oval less than
eight laps to the mile. The Gar
den track is II laps.
In winning his sixth straight mile
of the season and marking up his
eighth indoor race under 4:10, the
ex-Nebraskan found way to get a
little extra kick through. the last
quarter mile. Whereas, in the past,
he has blazed through the first
three-quarters at a killing pace, this
time he stepped off the first quarter
in 608, the half in zoos and the
three-quarters in 1904, with the
result he had enough left to run
the last leg in $50 seconds, his fast
tes time of the year for the final
quarter.
Then, showing great recuperative
powers, he came back rs minutes
later and ran and won his initial
l 1,000-yard race in 2:11.2-the first
time any runner has completed the
double since Cunningham turned
the trick nine years ago.
Easily Wins Both Races.
In the mile, Dodds beat Dart
mouths Don Burnham by a good 80
yards and in the 1000 he was Is in
front of Les Eisenhart of Columbus,
Ohio, at the tape. Johnny Fulton
Iof San Francisco's Olympic Club
also chose to try for the 1000 after
losing a 1:13.5 hair-line decision to
Jimmy Herbert in the 600-yard run,
but finished far back. Bill Hulse
third in the mile, likewise ran in
the double but found the task too
great and dropped out in the
shorter number.
The other outstanding event of
the night saw James Rafferty, re-
peat his Millrose games victory over
Ensign Ollie Hunter, eX-Notre Dame
ace, in the two-mile. Trailing by
40 yards with four laps to go, Raj
ferty let loose with sprint that
carried him to the judges 20 yards
in front of Hunter in 9:l45.

Arlington County is the home of

Pinscher named Dictator Won Glen

owned by Marine Capt. and Mrs.
Robert Adamson. The dog has been
shown only three times, on the third

his second show appearance he

Dictator was bred and shown al
Cleveland by John Cholley. His sire
is ch. Blank Won der Domstadt, ano
his dam is ch. Siegerin Ossi vor
Stahlheim. This combination has
produced five Dobermans to datt

Mo||is Likely 10 Need
All His Ring Graft
To Whip Doty

Durable Tommy (Pop) Mollis, the
Baltimore veteran whose stevedore

called on to use all his ring craft
and stamina tonight when he faces
George (Red) Doty, Connecticut
youthful socker-boxer, in the To-
round fight heading tonight's Tur-
ner's Arena fight program.
Pop has won seven straight fights
here over increasingly tougher op-
position, but only once before has
he been called upon to go as much
as eight rounds. Those extra two
heats tonight could cause him trou-
! BILE, especially against such tough
hombre as this Doty. The redhead's
record may make him a slight
favorite, although Mollis has plenty
of followers who won't believe he
can be licked until they see it-and
then they'll likely call for a recount
In the last year Doty has beaten
AL Dummy Davis, Ernest (Cat)
Robinson and Leo Sewicki, and lost
a split decision to Frankie Wills
The Sewicki decision give him the
New England welterweight title
Doty probably will fight at middle
weight figure tonight, same as
Mollis. Red is a combination boxer
puncher, while Mollis strictly is a
boxer, cutey who, in year after
year in club fights, has picked up
a store of knowledge ron how best
to handle himself in the ring. It..
seldom he is tagged with solic
punch.
This is a big night for middle

stand everything Germany dealt her. feinting
