record for the Half

Wm Out for Record

thndlth would try for a new record, llo

Competition Not Keen
Sf Ihit Is the reclpo for breaking records,
'tat strange as It may seem, some of tho
ggrealentS wero mismuK un auturuuy.
Hiredith Wis In excellent shape, but tho
tjtciwas not In tho best of shape and, with
iSdiie respect to Wlndnagle, of Cornell, tho
ecwpetltlon was not conduclvo to fast time.
Xtt Cornell man did not set the pace, but
wrtly hung on a couple of yards In tho
nor and stayed there until tho end. Ted
)anped out In front, set the paco tho entlro
$Kince Bnd tno only warning he had that
ill opponent was near was tho crunching
Wpatof the spiked shoes behind him. He
nw windnaclo was close and that was
jftts only thing that spurred him on.
. Lack of competition cost tho Penn flyer
two seconds In the first quarter. He plan.
Ultorun In. 63 seconds, but made It In 65.
That forced him to travel tho last 440
jtril In 57 1-5 seconds, which is ciuito a
tux for a man who Is tired. Had ho been
juiita In the first part of the race Mere
dith would have hung up a mark that would
! Utl (or many years to come.
No attempt 1b being mado to detract
( from th wonderful performance of Wlnd-
. BZfio..,ae ran it wuuucnui ruuu uiiu uiif
JlMSFJiacan finish the half-mllo run within
tbttii record deserves all kinds of credit.
Tiallhacan ran better than ever before In
V$ life and when one realizes that this
Halir work was uono 46 minutes after ho
W finished second in tho mile run, which
Mwon In 4 minutes and 26 seconds, It is
tecuiary to pause and hand out a few
taquets.
But Wlndnagle Is a plugger and not a
K
sprinter. He can hold n. certain pace If
thero Is n good pacemaker and bo Just
ns strong at the finish. Ha hr-s little sprint
at the end and that la where Meredith beat
him out.
There is quite a difference betwen Ted's
work Saturday and his performance In
Stockholm four years ago, when he first
smashed the record. At that time Mere
dith, who had. Just finished Mercersburg
nnd was the rlpo old age of 19, was forced
to extend hlmlosf from the start and won
only after a heart-breaking sprint at the
finish,
Melvln Sheppard was responsible for the
new record, but that was because lto was
after It himself. He set tho pace up to the
last 20 yards, when ho faltered Just long
enough for tho Mercersburg boy to hurl
himself to tho front nnd win by the scant
margin of ono yard,
Thero Is a story connected with this race
which Is worth repeating, In Stockholm
tho best athletes In the .world wero en
tered In tho various events nnd the lists
wero large. It was necessary to run three
heats In tho dlstanco events and they were
held on tlirco separato days.
Sheppard won his heat In the 800 metres
run on tho first day and Meredith finished
second to Braun, tho German. In all, eight
races wero run, and tho first two men
qualified for the semi-finals to be held on
tho following afternoon, ,
i
Sheppard Left nt Post
Whon tho scml-flnals wero run off eight
men faced tho starter In tho first heat.
Sheppard, Braun and Meredith wero among
those present and fast time was looked for.
Sheppard got off to a bad Btart, however,
nnd wns left at tho post when the starter
fired his pistol. Ho soon caught up with
the field, but was on tho outside and Just
qualified at the finish when he came In
fourth. , Meredith won the event In 1.64 2-6.
After tho race, Mel Sheppard was sore.
Ho had a narrow escape and vowed that ha
never would have another.
"Tomorrow thero will be some tall run
ning In the 800 metres," he said. "Any one
who wants to stay In tho race will do the
first 100 yards In 10 Boconds flat. This
stunt of losing tho pole and running around
tho field Is too much Ilka work."
Mel kept his word In tho final race. At
tho crack of the gun he started out llko a
10-second man, with Meredith close on his
heels and Braun right behind. Sheppard
kept tho lead and made tho first quarter in
62 1-6 seconds. He had no Idea that Mere
dith was pushing him, but Imagined It was
tho German, and kept up the furious pace
In tho hope of tiring him out.
Falters in Stretch
In the home stretch ho faltered, nnd Mer
edith came on with a rush and won- by a
close margin. Ho finished the 800 metres
In 1:67 9-10, but kept on until the half
mllo mark had been passed. Thjs was six
yards further, and the distance Was covered
In 3-6 of a second. Tho speed at the finish
was remarkable as Meredith was traveling
at a 10-second clip for 100 yards.
Meredith does not conllne nil of his star
work to the half mile. Last summer ho ran
440 yards In :47 flat on a straightaway, and
In tho relays he was timed at :47 3-5
around the oval. He also holds tho world's
record for 6G0 yards Indoors, with 1:12 2-5.
In tho Dartmouth meet two weeks ago
Ted won tho 100 yardB dash In 10 1-6, but
three watches caught him in 10 seconds flat.
Ho also captured tho 220 yards dash in 22
seconds.
All of which goes to show that Meredith
Is the greatest runner the world has ever
seen, nnd when he lays away his spiked
shoes after tho Intercolleglates next week
the University of Pennsylvania will suffer
an Irreparable loss.

NEW RECORDS FOR

Cornell Has Big Edge to
Win Championships, Be
lieves Meredith
MOAKLEY TEAM IS STRONG
By TED MEREDITH
Captain Penn Track Team
The dual meets on Saturday virtually
concluded tho competition which tho East
ern colleges enter preparatory to the Inter
colleglates. The remaining two weeks will
And nil the Athletes hclns groomed nnd
pointed for the tlnal contest on May 27.
That the Intcrcolteglates will bo nn ovent
where aomo remarkable performances will
bo BtRRed was manifested by tho dual meot
of Saturday last. Never before have tho
competition nnd times been so good. Thero
has been severnl years when remarkablo
performances have been pulled off In the
dual meets, but this year shows every event
with a good, fast nnd well-matched field,
Cornell last Saturday had tho best dual
meot team I have ever seen or expect to see,
Moakley wns represented In every ovont by
men who looked llko tho real thing, big,
strong, clean-cut fellows that tnko work
and get better for It. With material like
that Cornell Is bound to be In tho fore In
track athletics. ..
Penn Weakened
This Is tho biggest score Cornell has ever
run up on Pennsylvania. They found us n
weakened team and In such a condition
that we could not fight them back. We
might havo scored a few more points had
we doubled up Bomo of the men, but it
would not havo won for us nnd the work
would not havo benefited our team.
To predict that Cornell will win tho Inter
collcglatea seems llko telling tho public
something of which they nro positive after
seeing tho lied nnd White team perform
Saturday on Franklin Field.
Tho only Cornell man to fall down wns
Richards. The Olympic champion held his
field too lightly and had to suffer defeat at
tho hands of four men, nil of whom he
would have beaten easily had ho paid more
attention to his jumping at tho lower
heights.
Overconfident
I havo often seen men too confident nnd
suffer n licking na the result, and this was
such a case.
Two things wero brought out Saturday
by ono tacc tho half-mile first, that
Wlndnnglo never knew how fast ho could
run until he was drawn out, nnd, second,
that should ho Bet a fast pneo In tho Inter
collegiate mllo ovent ho will beat Overton,
of Yale, who has been conceded tho race by
nearly all the critics.
Overton, duo to his good running this
winter In tho Indoor meets, has been picked
by many as the winner of the one-mllo race,
and they nro showing good Judgment by
It. Under ordinary conditions Overton
would win, but under certain conditions,
and they to be that the mllo Is run from
the crack of tho pistol to tho tape at n hard
and fast pace, I feel that Wlndnagle will
win. Ho Is n hard runner and possesses a
lot of strength and endurance, which, under
tho strain and excitement of the Intcrcol
legtates, would bo hard to beat.
Meredith Surprised
I was the most surprised on Saturday of
any one on Franklin Field when I entered
tho stretch and found him at my shoulder.
I did not think ho had tho speed to stay
up that long, and he had me pretty well wor
ried about 150 yards from the tape. He
drove mo Into a sprint, nnd I lost my form
for nbout 50 yards, but finally got It Just btfc
fore tho finish. My head went back andll
got too straight up In tho ntr, which toJk
all tho finish out of me. If he had nht
Jumped mo so fast I could have held rsiy
form and finished much stronger. J
I did start out to try to break the rccorn,
but went too slow to the quarter mark. M
this point I might have slowed the pace Up
had Wlndnagle not been so close up. This
drove mo the next furlong In 27 seconds,
which was much too fast for ideal half run
ning. When I was told nt tho C60-yard mark
that the time was 1:22, I knew that I had a
chance and Intended from then on to try;
but whether I had Intended to or not I was
given no choice, for Wlndnaglo drove
me homo from that mark, and It took nil I
had to win.
It was n hard race In that It waa not
paced right nnd it would not have taken
so much out of me had I done my first
quarter In 53 seconds.
Collegiate Winners
Tho Yale-Harvard dual meet resulted
Just na I expected. When I figured It out
last week I said Yale would win by at
least 20 points, and they won by 23 points.
Thla meet brought out two men who
look llkr Intercollegiate winners. Tlsch
ner'fl 100 yards In 9 4-5 and his 220 yards
In 21 8-5 seconds mal.es him look a Bhado
better than Smith, of Michigan, who won In
10 flat nnd 22 seconds.
Whether Tlschner can go through tho
heats of theBe two events and still show thlB
time Is a question In my mind. I don't
think he will stand up under the work aa
well na Smith will.
Farwell, of Yale, registered the best time
made In the East this year In tho 220 low
hurdles when ne won in j -o octoimn,
This beats all the other low hurdlers' time
by a good .margin.
Simpson Big Star
While the Easterners were doing their
Btunts on Saturday, Simpson, of Missouri,
was proving himself a track team In him
self and won Ave first places in a dual meet
against Kansas. Simpson also proved that
his 14 4-5 of two weeks ago was not a
nhoney performance, and did the same time
In this meet. Thla should convince the
Record Committee that Simpson In a hurd
ler of rare ability and Is capable of doing
We shall start In the homestretch now
at Franklin Field and get our team whipped
Into final trim for the Intercolleglates. Our
hopes for finishing well up depend on a few
men, and these men will get all the atten.
tlon from now on. -

EXCELLENT TENNIS IN
WILMINGTON, DEL.
Exhibition Matches, in Which
Miss Bjurstedt Stnrred,
Cleverly Played
Exhibition tcnnli Is often npt to de
genorato Into n series of carelessly played
games between two opponents who care
very llttlo whether thoy win or lose. But
last Saturday, Wilmington Country Club
staged a really unique exhibition match.
Unique becauso It brought out hnrd-fought,
Interesting and at times sensational ten
nis. The dny'a events opened with Mlsi Molla
Bjurstedt playing JIIss Mnrle Wngner.
Miss Bjurstedt, as usual, started slowly
whllo JIIss Wngner opened with n rush,
winning tho first thrco games easily. Hiss
Bjurstedt then braced and pulled up even
nt 3 nil. From then on, tho match was
close nnd exciting.
Miss Bjurstedt Is a greatly Improved
player this Bcason. Last year any ono
could see tho flans In her game. This sea
son, these Haws havo either been eliminated
or changed. Sho has devotoped a hard,
clean, backhand ground stroke, something
that last year sho totally lacked. Her net
game, lust season so childishly weak com
pared to the rest of her nttnek, Is this sea
son qui to adequate. Miss Bjurstedt docs
not hellevo In net attacks nnd therefore hns
only developed n defensive volley. But
with this shot sho enn Bavo herself from
the method of nttack used effectively
against her Inst season by Mrs. McLean and
Mrs. WIghtman, of pulling her In with a
short shot nnd then lobbing to her. This
year sho can volley back deep and rctrlovo
back court position.
Following the ladles' singles. George M.
Church, tho Delaware Stato tltleholdcr, de
feated William T Tllden, 2d, In a mntch
roplcte with brilliant shots by tho score
of C-4, 3-C, C-4.
I'olo at Country Club Today
A special polo mntch nt six period has been
ranged for today at the I'hlluuelnhln Coun
try Club between ItB quartet nnd ono represent
ing Kumaon.
This will bo followed by practice.
Miss Bjurstedt defeated Mlas
Wagner twice on Saturday after
noon at Wilmington. Tho Nor
wegian girl won in Binglcs. Then,
paired with George M. Church, sho
won from Miss Wagner and W. T.
