Kitola smashed Nurmi's two die records to bits, after Nurmi him ilf bad sped to threo new world's indoor marks in a race at one mile md t quarter. Tonight Nurmi races at Syracuse uuiTeraity.

Norai's record was 9:OS. This murk not only twas 4 1-5 faster than Nur mi'fi recard but nea'rly sic seconds better tiirtn the world's outdoor stan dard.

Cruickshank, It will be remembered, tied Bobby Jones for the national open title In 1923, losing In the playoff to the amateur crack from Atlanta. Cruickshank Is shown giving wife and daughter a few lessons, for which he will not receive cus tomary fee. One of the meet famous middle distance runners in. track bistory wus J. E. "Ted" Mertdith of the Uni nrtilr of Pennsylvania. Mercditii'a specialties were the "440 and 880-yard runts. The Quaker crack -ivns in his prime treund ana' during his re gime od the cinders hung up world's records in both ennte rs. He made the shorter distance (nround one turn) in 47 2-5 seconds and the long er in 1:52 1-5. Thcae marks still 'tend, too. As a member of the Aoericou Olympic team in 101? be t'lotinted the 800-mater run in 1:-1.9, the present reoord for the neot. ilervdilh was a star nthlete as au "noolboy at Mcrccrsburg Academy t was one of the few collcpe run D'rs who could step two gruelling like the quarter and half in tbje "ae afternoon and do each in clone record time consistently. ,BlLLY wEVANS- Says TOW that our distance runnera have fallen before -the great Nur mi, the Bprinters are ou bis trail. Charley Paddock's defi to the fly ing Finn was interesting, even if only a publicity stunt- l'addock is shortly to tour tbe world with Lores Murchison. Charley realises the value of publicity and gets it. Tha California flash said he would give Nurmi a .five-yard start in a 100-yard dash and beat iun to the tape. In mere words that doesn't aound like much of an undertaking but w opine Paddock would have his troub les doing it. ' ' t '. Nurml is best at the distances but be is far from ordinary in the sprints. In several of his diatanoe eces he has finished -with a apurt that re minded one of the going in a 100-yard dash. On the very best of authority comes the word that Nurml has done the 100 yards any number of times since arriving in this ountry in bet ter than 11 seconds. That doesn't sound so ,Mg yet when one considers It -was done in mere workouts, while Nurml was at tired in woolen trousers, cap and mittens, it stands out. If Paddock ever meeta Nurml in a 100-ynrd dash, which 4s' doubtful, he is jroinar to bo' hard pressed to beat the Finn. . ' Recently while Nurml was demon strating his .superiority over the field of distance runners, Walter Uagon was turning a similar trick in golf-dom. If there ever were two super-stars, Paavo Nurmi and Walter Hagen fill the bill. Fy his decisive defeat of Oyril Wnlker, national open title-holder, Iingen became the unofficial world's coif champion. Last year Hagen took down the British open while Walker showiW the way in the U. S. golf classic ugen only beat Walker 17 up and 15 to play in their 7-hole match. It is doubtful if ever a champion waB ao soundly trounced as Walker. Golf statiticinns are busy trying to determine whether or not there was ever a greater margin of victory in ft 711-holc match. Five Big Ten Men Among All-Stars " ' (By NEA Senrioe) CHICAGO, Feb. 33. Bis Ten uni versities placed -five athletes on the all-America college track and field team for 1024. Michigan and Iowa .hud .two and Illinois one. DeHart Hubbard, sensational col ored star, and Jim Brooker were the Michigan representatives. Hubbard wns -nominated in the running broad jump and Brooker in the pole vault. lirookins, in the 220-yard low hu rules, and Wilson, in he quarter mile, were the Hawkeyes to make the grade. Illinois' contribution was Dan Kinsey in the 120-yard high hurdle event. Another middle westerner selected was Tom Poor of the University of Kansas. Poor got on in the high jump.

A victory over Washington on the Huskies' own floor is consid ered quite a feat 'men a demand has been made for reserved seats, that it became neces sary to put in 200 extra chairs on the main floor, Jack BenefieL graduate nianuger said today. He expects this game to break all attendance records in basketball here. Coach lieinhart of Oregon has prac tically decided on his lineup. He will start Hobson and Uowans at forward; Okerberg at center: and Weatergren nt one guard, and either Gunther or Uullemvaturs at the other.
