N 30-MILE RACE
rrMlE Wheel of Life mar t grinding out better luck for Alfred Leconey, of
The ether day Leconey was elected csptaln of bis track team for '1023.
Tklf I" n noner eTerjr co,,,an cherlnhea.
The tribute certainly is deferred. Twe Intercollegiate individual track
t.mnlenehlps have been brought te the Easten institution by the spirited
' Leconey wen the 100 yard and 220-yard titles at Cambridge last month.
- traversed the 100 In 9 7-10 seconds, one-tenth of a second under the record.
There was a slight wind blowing down the course the day of the finals and
the Judge did net deem it wise te award the mark. '
The Lafayette athlete has done 0 4-5 seconds often and only two weeks
btfere the Interceltcgl&tes he' wan timed In 0 7-10.
t At Cambridge he defeated a field of great sprinters, several of whom have
beaftn even time. It would seem that these facts would counter-balance the
wdfht of the breer.e. - ,
Twe years age Leconey was hatred at the starting line from the inter
collegiate after his entry had been accepted. This was because he was a
(rtntitnan. Last year he was nosed out by Klrksey In the 100 and by Woodring
h the furlong. .
This year he broke a record and It Is taken from him. However, he equaled
He mark in his heat and that will stand.
THE MelJI University, of Japan, has defeated the University of
California four game out of five In baseball. The last contest
ended in a 12-2 reverse for the youths from the Gelden Gate. Our
national pastime seems te have taken a firm grip en the Orient.
The Unpopularity of Lew Tendler
WIGHT years age Cennie Mack placed en the auction block the- greatest base-
JJ ball machine known te the game. He gave as one of his reasons Philadel
phia's lack of appreciation.
Lew Tendler, is nearer the lightweight championship than any qther con
tinder and jet, judging from the consensus voiced in bellowing tones at the
fight Tuesday night, Fhlladelphlana would 'rather see him knocked out by a
Kend-rater than have him win the title from Benny Leenard.
If one can take the jeers, the sarcasms and the hoots as the sentiments of
ttii fight fans toward Tendler, he is one of the most unpopular boxers in
tb game.
' Tendler's record since he left his newsboy stand outside the City Hall for
Us crouch In the ring is one for PMladelphlans te be proud of. Ne one can
touch or point out a black stain in any of his actions within the ropes.
The southpaw lightweight, has fought fair and clean and he always gives
Us best in return for the fans funds.
It appears It Is net the boxer who has caused his own unpopularity. The
criticism apparently Is Intended for his manager, Phil Glassman, but why should
Tendler be the target?
These facts de net speak well for sportsmanship In this city.
WEST PIIILADELPHfA HIGH SCHOOL wen the annual track

Student Makes Geed aa College Coach
LANCE RICHBOURO haa been let out by the Phils. This Is news In double
barrel form, for there were few who knew he bad reported.
Rlchbeurg Just graduated from the University of Flerida and appeared in
tulferm at the Phils Park en Monday for the first time this season. He left
yesterday for Charleston, where he haa been sent under an optional agreement.
DMrlng the last two years Rlchbeurg has "played the part of Mg-leaguer,
(each and student. He earned his way through the Gainesville Institution by
coaching the college nlneand playing professional ball..
The University of Flerida team ia being hailed aa the Southern champions,
far seventeen out of twenty-one games were wen. One, of the victims waa Yale
the Crackers scoring a 3-2 win ever the Blue In twelve innings. '
Rlchbeurg knows the inside of the national fame. This la proved bv the
excellent team he turned out.
He also possesses natural hitting ability. Thla ia shown by the fact that
h led the Central League, a Class B organisatien, when he waa with Grand
Rapids two years age, with a percentage of .416.
Rlchbeurg has gene out of the big league, but he will return. Ha ia tee
geed a ball player te remain In the sticks.

assured the schools of getting an equnl
chnncc, as one or two star athlete
would be unable te win the meet for
n certain Institution. Every girl either
helped or hindered her team te victory.
Anether unique thing wis the way
the winners of the races were Judged.
The best times were kept, and the
winner waa announced after -the meet.
In the dash, there were Ave lines drawn
en the ground nt the finish line, about
two or three feet-apart.
This Is the distance it will take a
girl te run In one-fifth of a second.
Therefore. only one watch waa unetl,
the winner being timed, and the ether
times being judged. If a gtrl was one
line behind the winner, who finished
the race In, say, 8 1-5 seconds, her time
would be 8 2-5 seconds.
After all of the times were taken nnd
figured out, it was announced that Miss
Telly Weaver, of the West Philadelphia
High Scheel, was the winner of the 75
yard dash. Miss Weaver ran the dis
tance In 8 3-G seconds. Four girls
were tied for second. The time was
better than that made by Miss Dettia
Bough, of Temple, last week. Miss
Bough ran the same distance in 10 1-3
seconds.
Miss Wearer was a substitute en the
Western team, and sprung a big sur
prise by her victory. The mother of
the girl who originally was scheduled te
run for the winners died two days
age, and she was unable te compete.
Miss Nixon Wins
