ES | | | Sent PADDOCK IS MOST PHENOMENAL RUNNER His Work Lacks Smoothness, But He Gets Over Ground Amazingly. While Paddock, the California sprinter, will always be remembered !as a phenomenal runner, his best {title to fame will come through his record of seventeen seconds for 177 yards, made recently on the Pacific | coast. Athletic authorities at one time had a way of referring to sprinters Data BRINGING UP FATHER NA A rr | ---------- 7 of quality as men who could run in even time. One hundred yards was considered the standard distance and ten seconds-the standard time. When- éver a runner was capable of shad- ing this time he was referred to as being a yard or some other distance better than evens. g A ten-second men was talked about in the amateur ranks a generation ago, although a number of profes- sionals could beat that figure. With the improvement of the cinder paths -----cinders make an ideal running track when rolled firmly--came fas- ter time, and cronometers registering fifths of a second instead of quarters soon recorded an amateur as running BA CHARLES PADDOCK. Who recently broke five s printing records in California. in better than evene. Training methods improved also, and soon most of the colleges boasted each of 4 man who could do his hundred yards in tem seconds and several won races in 9 4-5 seconds. Taking Paddock's record of seven- teen seconds for 175 yards, an analy- sis shows him runming the distance in five yards better than even time, a performance of such merit that it will probably remain on the books for years unless Paddock himself should beat it within the next year or two. Paddock's: running lacks the smoothness shown by some great amateur runners, but he gets over the ground in amazing fashion, put- ting a world of power into his stride and gradually gaining a momentum wlidch smothers his rivals at the fin- {ish of a race. | The young Californian is one of |those men singularly gifted by na- [ture who appear periodically in the I orld of-athletics. The people of the Pacific coast may well be proud of {him and his track records.--New | York Herald. Truth is the touchstone of all JR 7 U) Bo 230 Princess Street.

STUFFY MCcINNES IS FINALLY PARTED FROM HIS OLD GLOVE Season in and season out, for ten consecutive years, Stuffy McInnis. first baseman of the Cleveland In- dians, has worn the same glove in battles on the diamond. Stuffy and the mitt have been inseparable pals. To save it from being thrown into the discard he hag had it patch- ed, he has had it sewed, he has had everything done to it which a re- vamper of mitts could do. But as at some time the best of friends pirt, Still The Most For The Money 80 it is at last that Stuffy and his glove have come o the dividing of the way. It became so topheavy, with all the upbuilding which its owner gave it in an effort to pro- long its usefulness, that it has Just given way to a new glove of 1922 model. Stuffy says he will never for- get his departed friend, especially in view of the. fact that 'its career end- ed only after it had sao ably helped him 1n its final days to make his wonderful flelding record of the season of 1921. \.
