This sturdy Nebrask middle dis- tance star who runs under the colors of the Boston A. A. is starting in on the indoor boards where he left off last spring with two world records and a victory over the Swedish sen- sation, Edvin Wide, to his credit. In his first start at New York re- cently, Hahn sped a half-mile in 1:63 4-5, missing a world record only because the track was not marked off in accordance with the rules, His Pid can in the annual series of indoor athletic carnivals in the east this winter is part of a well- id campaign which began in his DUGAN ALWAYS READY Lee Cavanagh, the Montana Slasher, Has Decision Over Clyde Hull By J.
