thlliK ceitaln, tlio 410 will go down In
history as one of the Rreatcst spectacles
In years unless all predictions fall. Ted
has ncer been forced to do his best at
the quarter, and there are athletic experts
and others who believe America's Rrcat
est middle dlBtnnce runner will bo the
man to topple Mniey Long's record ot 17
flat. Ted will not have his best chance
tn beat this mark untlt he competes In the
championships nt the Pacific Const Ex
position In August. At the coast frames
then- will be n stliOghtnwny, and It U
prartlcally certain the winner of the UO
there will be the new holder of the
world's record.
When Maxcy T.onc won his sensational
race at the CluttciiburR nice track, Now
York, October I, 1D0O, be hod conditions
that favored him. On the coast, Ted will
havo his first opportunity to compete on
a 410 straightaway. lie Is almost suro to
break t.ong's mark, which has been on
the Amateur Athletic fnlon hooks 15
ears. Maxcy. n few days earlier (Sep
tember 2d, 1300). on n round path, ran the
quarter In 47 4-5 seconds, a mark which
has been the object ot many athletes
since that day. At tho colleglntes this

Colonel HbbcttH Is correct. Baseball
may have Its tips and downs, Us bumps

likely to vanish from public esteem Is
the veriest Junk. Also hunk, if Eng
land has backed up cricket for H)0 years.

That's All
About nil that Ted Meiedltli lias to do

Is to beat 4$ seconds over tlio 410 Jog.
Otherwlso Ted can take his time about
it.
While Yale upholds .Mr. Boos, her crack
shot-putter, Harvtud's war cry is "Boos
mlt him."
Why, Indeed
Dear Sit
Why Is it that the fan who usually
toasts tho umpire's Judgment on a play
where tlio umpire Is f.omo 200 feet closer

tine of the biggest surprises for cars
In light harness racing about this city mid
vicinity Is that the little trotting main,
fiuy Nella, 2.07aj, by Suy Axwoithy,
owned by William J. JIaikle, of Nnr
bcrtli, will bo converted Into a pacer nnd
will bo extensively campaigned.
Under tho pacing gait the Nnrlicrth
entry in el'giulo to all classes, sho being
ch.'iractctlzed as n green pacer.
Last season Guy Nella earned her fnst
tiottlng innik of 2.073, nt Buffalo, under
Pop Clcers' guidance. She often dis
played n tendency toward pacing Instead
of Hotting freely, nnd this suggestod to
both Iter owner nnd Mr. Gcers that this
would be her natural gait.
According to reports her new gait Is
considerably faster nnd more accurate.
Tho veteran trainer, "Pop" Cecrs,
ono of the most prominent liniscnicii of
tlio Grand C'rcult today, will pilot tho
maro again this year. So much docs he
think of tlio converted daughter of Ax

held by Anaconda, who (s ci edited willi

Guy Nella needs onlv lo step over tho

ONE-LEGGED ATHLETE
RACES WITH CRUTCH
Alfred Franki, New York City,
Challenges Any Similarly Af
flicted Man in United States.
That the Ins ot ono leg does not neces
sarily prevent a man from participating In
athletic sports Is shoivn by tho achieve
ments of Alfred Franki, a newsboy, who
is a member of the Bronx Church House,
New York- city, nnd manages to cover
considerable ground In quick time. Franki
says lie Is the one-legged champion run
ner of the United States, nnd to prove Ida
light lo the tltlo Is willing to rnco any
othr one-legged man from one to two
miles. KrnnM has started training fnr
Kumes nnd expects to be in condition early
next month.
Despite ills affliction Franki Is cheerful
und gets a lot of fun out of athletics. Ha
trains systematically and is always will
ing tu glv the bencllt ot his experiencej
to others similarly afflicted. In telling
how ho eald:
"Up to the time of the loss of my leg I
had developed no taste or inclination for
athletic sports, hut shortly after I start-id
lo satisfy my craving for more speed
action and commenced to practice running
with the trrrt of n. crutch. J hae suc
ceeded In proving that the loss of a le?
does not limit a man tn any great extent,
mid It Is inv fond hope that every man
similarly nffllcteil will get busy and pruva
his mettle liv building up as perfect health
as any athlete who Is in possession of both
limbs.
"For muscular development I use tho
pullv weight machine, u pair of (lve-pou:id
dumb-bells und a BO-pou ml weight, going
through the usual motions and exerclsis
with the apparatus, and I Indulge In some
long-distance walking and fast rilnnlni;
at mt twice a week.
When starting lo run I let out a back
kick with my crutch, then pull back mv
crutch for momentum to put me In pusl
tlon far the next step. I alwas have
two-legged runners for my pacemakers,
and they find eome difficulty In trying to
outdistance me when I ge-. Into swing. In
long-distance running, fiom one tn three
miles, I start with a flow and easy pace,
aim keep this up until I get my second
wind, when I Increased my speed and
finish up with a surprisingly, fast pace."

MACK SENDS S. 0. S.
FOR THIRD BASEMAN
Bostick Summoned to Relief of
Athletics WyckolT Slated to
Oppose White Sox.
CHICAGO, May 19. Manager Mack Is
a preplexcd man today over the showing
mndo by his club during the present tiip
und pnrticulnrly against the White Sox.
He sent n hurry-up call to Newark for
young Bostick to lcplnce Kopf at third
base. Tho latter has been playing poor
hull, but it lias been due to his physical
condition. Kopf has been ill, but has In
sisted on playing, though lie should bo
in bed.
Tlio general impression here is that the
Athletics will wind up In tho second di
vision unless Muck listens to the call of
the fans and accepts Baker's proposition
lo return for tho senson. It Is thought
that Bostick will have n trial In the re
mainder of the games In the West nnd
unless he proves a sensation Baker will
be back in the Athletics' line-up when
the team returns to Philadelphia.
'Joe Bush, who is generally effective
against the White Sox, was wild and
Ineffective Ills exhibition was certainly
welnl. Tliti team lost Its ginger ana
plnytd as thoush they wished it were all
over. On the other hand the Sox played
Kii-.it ball and twice overcame a lead
that looked big.
Today Manager Mnck will trot out his
choicest "wild man" and he has many of
them according to the base on balls flg
tli es in Ban Johnson's league. This Is
Weblon Wyckoff, a wonder with control,
but he seldom has it. Opposed to Wyckoff
will be either Joe Benz or Eddie Clcotte,
