Fred Kelly, the first Cromwell world champion, won the 110 metres hurdles at the 1912 Olympiad at Stockholm, Sweden, in 16 1-5 seconds. One year later he ran the high hurdles in 15 seconds flat, the first time it had ever been done in that time. Howard Drew was his second. He was the first sprinter to run the 100 in 9 3-5 seconds and he performed this feat in both 1913 and 1914 and also tied the existing world record for the 220 with a mark of 21 1-5 seconds. Earl Thomson came under Cromwell's tutelage in 1916, and a year later cracked the high hurdles record by stepping easily over the high barriers im,a special race in 14.8 seconds. Bob Simpson of Missouri cracked t* t ‘orm.

MacGREGOR Jack Hurley, who manages the) business affairs of Billy Petrolle and who talks like Billy fights, as hard and fast as he knows how, wants stethescopes, bruise disclosures and similar scientific equipment made a The reason is that Hurley is posi- tive that the newspapermen who gave Russie Leroy a draw in his recent battle with the Fargo Ex- press were not so charitable as they were blind. Jack believes the scribes are willing to see if they only can bring themselves into the proper focus. Hence his desire to have them use some equipment other than a pencil and a pad of paper. Getting down to cases, as the ship- |ping clerk said when he fell off the ladder, Hurley thinks Bill clearly won a decision over his former stablemate—and maybe he did. | When Leroy left the We he didn’t, appear to have been so badly marked | but those who saw him the next} day admit that he looked a lot worse for wear than Billy did. Russie Patched Up | “Billy closed one of Leroy’s eyes,; completely, broke his nose, knocke one of his ear drums loose and in other ways battered him up while Petrolle came out without even hav- ing his hair badly mussed—and for this he gets a draw,” Hurley said. The genial Jack admits that he was disappointed in things other jthan the “draw” decision of the; newspapermen. He had hoped that Billy would stop Leroy in less than ‘the 10 scheduled rounds and gives Leroy credit for standing up under a lot of punishment. But that’s all he does credit his ‘former protege) with. His view is that Leroy ran} away from Petrolle so fast that the timer thought he was an official at and are working not only to gather glory in those meets but also in the |* foetrace. Six Cromwell-trained men ‘were on the last Olympic Discussing the forthcoming battle here in which Petrolle will attempt to settle an old score with Rusty Jones of Kansas City, Hurley says he will be satisfied with nothing less than a knockout victory. He is attempting to chaperon his star lightweight to the top of the heap— and that’s why the draw decision in the Leroy fight stung so sharply. That, also, is the reason why he would like to see Billy lay the agile Mr. Jones as deftly as a furniture salesman lays a rug—only more completely. Meets Bruce Flowers Af‘or Mr. Petroll2 settles his argu- ment with Mr. Jones here on Feb- raary 28, and regardless of whether the settlement is satisfectory or not, he will find that he has merely got one obstacle out of the way in order to face another. He will need plenty of sieam in the old boiler to take care of the Kansas City Red Head and then— well, then he will meet the “rising tide of color” in the person of one Bruce Flowers at Madison Square Garden, New York, on March 16. Billy may meet one other man en route cast but tre Flowers match will be his next big shot after the battle here.

Van Ryan smothered Sullivan's sharp- shooting attack, and then beat him badly at infighting. The veteran's victory was marred, however, by a low blow in the sev- enth round which caused Sullivan to drop to his knees, but the referee, who was behind Sullivan when the punch landed, started his count which halted at two by the bell. Sullivan was given a brief rest and continued. Van Ryan outgeneraled his youth- ful opponent, made him miss and then ripped both hands to the body. He brought a stream of red from Sullivan’s nose in the fifth with a sizzling left hook. | In the preliminaries, Honeyboy Conroy, St. Péul negra middle- weight, outpointed Mike Sauro, St. Paul in six rounds.
