Harry F. Segal, a sll.fctly built lad of
Cheater, now wearing the emblem of the
Mercury Athletic Club, of this city, ran
through a field of 100 runners, around
trolley cars and wagons and through
several thousand persons ahd won tho
fourth annual street run of tho Theodore
Starr Club on South street this morning,
Segal worked his way to the front be
fore half of the six miles was covered
and then set his own pneo the rest of
the way. Ho was a half block ahead at
the finish. The race was a difllcult one
to run, and was also difficult tfor the offi
cials to handle at the finish.
Mounted policemen could not keep the
crowd on tho sidewalks and when run
ners began to near the finish they Jostled
officials aiound like so many candle pins,
it was oniy wun me greatest resistance
that they mnnaged to check up tho run
ners. The street was full or trolley
cars, wagons and automobiles and time
nfter time tho runners were forced to
rtop at ntrefct corners and wait for
nngons, cars and nutomobllcs to pass.
Some of tho runners were unfortunato
to bo stopped more than once and every
Etop meant several seconds lost.
Seconds mean n great deal In a run of
this kind as will be noted In the Com
petition for tho time prize In which five
runners finished within 15 seconds. The
tlmo prize was won by Harry Ilablno
wltz, of tho Hoj's" Club of the Church
Club, who covered tho course In 32 rnln
utes. This wns seven seconds better than
the tlmo of Schested, Malta Uoat Club
star, and 11 seconds better than tho time
made by Frank Kunn, of the Irish-American
Athletic Club of New York. Zuna
found the handicaps a trlflo too hard for
him to overcome and ho ''finished away
down tho list.
Tho Boys' Club, of tho Church Club, won
the team trophy with n total of 41 points,
nosing out tho Swedish-American Athletic
Club, of New York. Tho Swedish club
won two team trophies, for there was a
trophy offered to tho first out-of-town
club to have a team In at tho finish. The
Theodoro Starr Club on two occasions
won tho team trophy and then gavo the
prize to nnothcr club, but In this raco tho
Starr Club finished last In tho team com
pilation. While first plnce was tied up by Segal
good and early and without any fight,
there were a lot of good brushes for other
places. Frank Itodgers, of the Marqtietto
Club, and the VIckstrom, of tho Owedlsh
Amerlcan Club, of New York, had rt great
fight for second place. They ran on even
terms for several blocks, nnd Kodgera
nosod out his Swedish rival by a yard at
the finish.

FOUR RING KINGS EXPECTED
TO BE TOPPLED PROM THEIR
PINNACLES IN 1916 SEASON
McCoy, Alleged Champion, Welsh, Kilbane and
Williams May Fall by Wayside Willard's
Heavyweight Title Firmly Attached
Although but one champion was bowled
over during the 1915 fistic season when
Jess Wlllnrd toppled Jack Johnson Into
tho rosin In tho ifith round of their match
at Havana, April 5, thus returning tho
heavyweight laurels to tho Caucasian
race, the opening of tho 1016 campaign
finds a number of crowns already Jig
gling around In a most unstable fashion
on heads of their 'carers. Ono little
crack on the chin may dislodge halos of
the following title-holders:
Al McCoy, alleged middleweight cham
pion. J 'red WpIhIi, lightweight champion.
Jolinnv Kllliune, frrtthrrurlKlit champion,
Kid WllltuniB, hantntmt eight champion.
.More firmly attached to its owner's
brow 3 the tltlo held by Wlllnrd. At
tho present tlmo no competent contender
for tho hcnvwolght crown looms up on
tho pugilistic horizon,
Tho milling will b hard nnd fast In all
boxing divisions owing to the unusually
keen competition. The title-holder who
boxlpg critics the country over aro suio
will be toppled from his pinnacle is Welsh,
who won his championship on a question
able decision In London fiom Willie
Ritchie July 7, 1911. Charley White Is pre
dicted as tho next possessor of the light
weight championship. The Chlcagoan
came Into prominence puglllsticnlly be
cause of his left hook called the perfect
punch after ho had knocked out several
promising lightweight buds who were
blooming as championship products.
Welsh had been making a wide circuit
whenever championship bout conversation
was put to him. It Is doubtful, however.
If tho Englishman will bo ablo to go
through the 1916 season without defending
his tltlo. Welsh has been boxing for 10
years, and while his ring generalship
and cleverness has carried him through
limited bouts. It Is a unanimous prediction
that he will lose his crown the first time
ho attempts to defend It.
Now that Johnny Hrtle has proved to
New York and local fans that he Is not
a false alarm, as Sammy Harris, manager
of Kid Williams, was wont the public
should believe following the St. Paul lad's
Victory over the Baltlmorcan on a foul,
the Kewple Is being heralded as a prob
able successor to the bantam throne.
Since coming out of the West Krtle has
won all of his bouts on this side of the
Mississippi. His knockout hero In 45
seconds over Young Dlgglns stamps him
us a terrific puncher even though Dilla
delphlans were unable to get a good

tho runners in the annual event sprinting for the finish. Prank Segal, of tho
ringside view of him becnuso of his short
exhibition. Krtle's first New York match
was with a former amateur, Abo Fried
man, who was all but annihilated by
Johnny. This victory did not Improve
Kewple's prestige very much, but when
ho defeated Johnny Solsberg, a lad who
stood out as one of the lending contend
ers for Williams' crown, Krtlo vanquished
all thoughts of him being a counterfeit.
Several promoters at tho present time
are anxious to stage a WIlllnmH-Krtlo
championship set-to, but they aro finding
much dllllculty In d-lng so because of tho
weight question, Krtlo insists that the
match should bo mnde at 116 pounds,
whllo it Is admitted that Williams cannot
do that poundago any more. Ah "16" now
Is recognized as the bantam limit, AV111
lams may lose his tltlo by default unless
managers of the boxers can reach a defi
nite agreement.
The only reason Al McCoy is mentioned
as middleweight champion Is on tho
strength of a fluko knockout in a match
with Georgo Chip, who previously had
scored two decisive victories over Frank
Klaus, recognized as the tttleholdcr fol
lowing tho assassination of Stanley
Ketchol. Tho first first-rate middle
weight Mike Gibbons, Lea D'Arcy, Eddie
McGoorty, Young Ahearn or George Chip
probably will knock all championship
calibre out of McCoy In a bout scheduled
for more than 10 tounds, ,
Georgo Chaney, llaltlmore's knockout
king, stands out prominently ns the one
to knock Kllbane"s crown from his curly
haired dome. Ilaltlmoro promoters have
been negotiating for a match between
Kilbane and Chaney, with the title at
stake, for some time, but nothing definite
has developed. The Cleveland boxer wns
offered 15500 for a bout to a decision, Kil
bane did not accept It. Like Welsh, Kil
bane may bo forced Into defending his
laurels before the end of the 1916 season,
and Chaney Just now Is the only man
who looms up as his probable successor.
Philadelphia has developed a cracker
Jack lightweight this year and It may be
that this city will be represented in a
championship contest this year or In
1317. Jimmy Murphy, the West Philadel
phlan, who recently handed Champion
Welsh a nifty lacing here, looks as If he
may Improve gradually until he will bo
worthy of a crack at the championship.
Although tho boxing pastime has been In
existence for more than 25Q0 years, Phila
delphia never has boasted of a champion.
ABSENT-MINDED ABNER Nobody Arrives at a Logical Conclusion
PENN FOOTBALL COACH
TO BE PICKED MONDAY
Name of Successful Candidate
Will Be Announced at Direc
tors' Meeting Tuesday
Tho University of Pennsylvania Foot
ball Committee oxpects to have a meet
Intl some time Monday, probably in the
evening, when tho coach for 1916 may
bo picked. Members of the committee,
however, declare that tho name of tho
successful candidate, even if determined
upon, will not be announced until tho
monthly meeting of the board of directors
of the Athletic Association, which will be
hold on Tuesday afternoon. It Is possible,
though, that tho committee will not know
its own decision that time.
Just who tho man will bo no member
of the committee will admit, even If It
Is known. The Impression exists In foot
ball circles that there has been it shift
in the sentiment of the committee and
that the most likely winner now Is Robert
C. Folwell, captain of the 1907 cloven, and
who since his graduation has won fame
at Lafayette and Washington nnd Jeffer
son, where his teams have beaten Prince
ton, Cornell nnd Yalo and tied Harvard.
Captain Mathews and n majority of the
commltteo wanted the conch picked be
fore tho Christmas holidays began. If
a coach had been picked nt that time it
Is almost certain that Mike Dennett, of
Havcrford College, would have been the
lucky man. The appointment wns post
poned In order that action might not be
considered hasty. Although members of
tho committee refuse to talk. It Is known
that the qualifications of Folwell have
made a most favorable Impression on the
committee and he Is thought to bo more
favored than Bennett nt this Juncture.
Several other men in the list of 11 given
out three weeks ugo aio still receiving
seilous consideration, nnd members of
tho committee contend that thoy are still
In the race.
Pat Moran Signs

Pat Moran, the Phillies' only
pennant-winning manager, yester
day signed and forwarded his con
tract to manage President Baker's

Philadelphia got Its first glimpse of
1016 footbnll this afternoon nt the Straw
bridge & Clothier athletic field, C2d and
Walnut streets, when Vlncome rnd Mc
Clure, two blue bloods of Independent
football, clashed for tho championship of
Philadelphia and Delaware counties.
This game was expected to go down In
footbnll annals as the biggest nnd moht
Important game over played outside tho
Philadelphia schools and colleges.
Through the locnl sporting world for tho
last few weeks had run a current of an
ticipation over tho contest.
Whllo tho gamo had many times been
mentioned ns the first on- of the new
year, it was, in reality, tho closing battle
of 1015. and uas played as such, as It
settled tho championship of tho pust
season.
Interest throughout this section of the
Stato had been so widespread that the
advance sale of 1000 tickets had been
snapped up greedily. The management
was unable to satisfy tho demand for re
served seats for fear of the ever-present
speculators. However, 500 reserves were
on snle when tho gates opened at I "oclock,
along with GOOO general admissions.
Tho outcome of the gamo will settle
for all time the wranglu over tho cham
pionship of tho twin counties. Since this
tltlo was left In doubt when the McCluro
and Vlncome teams played a scoreless tie
on October 23, 1915, there had been a big
question among tho adherents, playeis
Any Sooner! By WALT
and managers as to which team had the
rightful claim.
Previous to last October these two
rivals met In tho fall of 1911, hut that
game also terminated in a scoreless draw.
Immediately after the signing of agree
ments to play today's game, tho hostile
managers called out their men to practice,
nnd It was learned that four or live reg
ulars on both Vlncome and McClure
would be unavailable for today. This
Indisposition on the part of tho players,
howover, will not Interfero greatly with
the original plans of tho manngers, and
to take their places both Andy McClure,
manager of the team which bears his
name, and William McDonald, of Vln
come. at once sought out the best football
material in Philadelphia.
Consequently a wild scramble for play
ers resulted, and each team this after
noon had In Its line-up several men who
for the last few years have won honors
In tho piep schools and colleges,
Hesldes the regular Vlncome and Mc
Clure men, playing against one another
were such football celebrities as Charles
McGuckln, A'illanova, and his running
mate at halfback, "Dutch" Forst; Tex
Jtamsdell, several seasons ago a head
liner in tho backflcld at Penn; Stanley
Hunt, Mercersburg; Norman McKlssick,
mentioned as an all-Amerlcan while at
quarterback on tho 1913 Swarthmore
eleven; Italph Mills, Penn State; Scott
Smith, star linesman of the Pennsyl
vania Military College; Harry Swartz,
Lafayette, Harold Lentz, all-scholastic
quarterback on the 1913 Central Manual
team, and BUI Stephens, formerly of
Central High and this season with
Muhlenberg College.
Both Vlncome nnd McClure spent
nearly an hour this morning In putting
the final touches on their previous work
outs with practice on their respective
fields.
Following a luncheon at noon today, the
Darby aggregation attended a black,
board talk by Quarterback McKlssick,
