EREELAND worl J OJT OF |5 STARTS LAST YEARL // ¥ Rights Moservedl by The Assoclated Pres The retirement of Steve Farrell, s track coach, after 30 years § e at Yale, Maine, Ohio State and Michigan, prompts Har- ry Hillman of Dartmouth to revive memories of the days when profes- sional foot racing was in itsprime —in New England as well as Old En,;la“d ve Farrell,” writes Harry in his latest bulletin for the Associa- tion of College Track Coaches of America, “was born in Rockland, Conn., the day after Christmas, 1863, but. . . Steve is a young man “He was never an amateur. In the old hook-and-ladder days, he was captain of three professional fire toams at one time. In those days, races between fire brigades were as important in the public eye as the big football games are today. . . . There were some other famous names on the rosters of those old teams (including) Keene Fitzpatrick, Mike Munphy, Johnnie Mack and Bill Donovan. “Immediately after his hook-and- ladder days, Farrell ran the 440, 880 and the mile in the famous old Caledonian Games. One week, it was in New York, then Philadel- phia, Boston, Chicago, Buffalo. It| was then that he made the stand- ing back jump of 11 feet. .. Later Farre)!, began to confine his activi- ties to the 100 and 300 yard dash events preparatory to enteting the Sheffield handicap, the premier professional track event of the| world, held annually at Sheffield, | England. | “Farrell went to England, backed | by the citizens of Leicester and won the $15,000 purse against a field of 100 men with the ‘stranger’smark’ handicap. Twice later Farrell en- tered the Sheffield Handicap and took first place once more. On his return to America from his first victory, Farrell took third in a race held at Goshen, Ind., to determine | the ‘Champion of ‘America.’” om-st;«ps Horse At the height of his: fame as a runner, Farrell got a job with the ing a horse in an exhibition thrown open to all comers. He was in a circus parade, garbed as an English gentleman hunter, on an occasion when passage through the old fruit and vegetables. He tripped over a dog while training for a race in 1898, broke an ankle and ended his competitive days. Farrell succeded Keene Fitzpat- and turned out a flock of cham- plons, including Carl Johnson, Eg- bert Isbell, DeHart Hubbard and Phil Northrop. Homespun Thrill “Back in 1910 I watched the Mankato Blue Sox defeat a team from Minneapolis,” cont ributes Paul Mickelson in the most-thrill- ing-event contest. “It was a hick game, of course, but an old butcher applied for the job of pinch-hitter in the ninth inning with ahe score 1 to 0-against the old home team and a man on base and two out. He whacked the ball over the fence and the home team won. “The ball incidentally landed on a freight car loaded with coal and the boys never saw it again. That game always sticks in my mind, a childhood impression perhaps, but what a thrill!” e, — CARD PARTY TUESDAY Don't forget the card party at the Dugout Tuesday, February 16, to be given by the Business and Professional Women’s Club. adv, | Barnum & Bailey circus by outrac- | Bowery drew a shower of over-ripe‘ rick at Michigan as track coach | “BOXER GlVES CONCERT TO FILL OUT PROGRAM BARNSLEY, Engl Dom Volante, Liverpool boxer, likes to give a crowd its money's worth.

So he returned to the ring with a mouth organ to give a con- cert for the nine rounds missed.
