Simonson Track Coach, University of Missouri 1 (Written for the United Press— Copyrighted, 1920, by United Press) In looking forward to the Olympic games, 2nd the hurdlers who will com- pete, we turn with some interest to previous records made by European and American athletes. £ Of the European countries, the English and Swedes will show up ‘best in the high hurdles, but Aust- ralia will outrank either of these. None, however, can strictly speak- ing be compared to American hurdl- ers. Wilson of Australia is about the ‘nearesz in ability to them. He has run the high hurdles in 15:1. “ The best record that Swedish hurdl- ershave made is 15:2, while the Eng- lishmen have never ‘beaten that time. In America there have been over fifteen men who have run 15:1, while six men have officially run 15 flat. They are: Smithson, Kelly, Murray, Barron, Thompson and Simpson. The world’s record, which is held by Bob Simpson, is 14:3. He run 14:4 officially six or seven times, and 14:3 twice officially. The probable contenders in the Olympic games this summer for Swe- den will be Levin and Hultin; for Australia,” Wilson and Kendell and for England, Gray. Thompson has just announced that he will run for Canada instead of America, and he will be a strong con- tender for the honors. The American representatives will probably be. picked from the follow- ing: Fred W. Kelly, Carl Johnson of Michigan, Smith of Cornell; Erd- man of Princeton; Barron of Mead- owbrook A. C., with a possibility of new finds in the coming track season. In the 1908 Olympics at London Smithson of America won the high hurdles in 15 flat, which is the present Olympic record. Fred W. Kelly ran them in 15:1-10 at the 1912 Olym- pics held in Stockholm. Thus, in or- der to break the present Olympic re- cord, the time must be under 15 sec- onds. Upon first glance, Fred W. Kelly, of the United States, and Earl Thompson of Canada, are the only two men who appear to have a chance at breaking this record. The 200 metre low hurdles has not been an Olympic event since 1904. 1t it were, the American hurdlers Recitation by Clara Nelson. “Why I'Like to Live on the Farm,” by Edward Swenson. “Youpg Hopefuls,” Ralph Hanks.

Hillman i of America ran it in 24:3 in the games at St. Louis 1904. . They will, however, hold a 400 metre hurdle race. An American holds the world’s record for the 400 metre event. This record of 54:4 was made by “Bill”’ Meanix. This time is better than any foreigner has ever run the shorter distance of 400 metres. In 1904, Hillman ran this race of 400 metres in 53 flat. Possible candidates in the United States are Meanix, the Loomis bro- thers, and Stuart, all of the Chicago Athletic Association; Bill Slyves- ter,, of Missouri university, and House and Johnson, of Illinois A. C. There is a wide field of contenders though and new men may spring up at any time. In the past Olympics America has always been supreme in the hurdles and it is up to-the present day Ameri- can hurdlers to keep up the old-time standards.
