TAKING STEPS T0 LAY CLAIM WORLDHONORS Swiss Youth Starts Out to Win Title at Game of Walking By GARDNER SOULE sSperts Editor, AP Feature Service There now comes forward a man with a real claim to the champion- _hip of the most universal of all sports—the game of walking. The claimant is a gentleman named Pritz (Dusty Shoes) Stem-‘ ing: a fair-haired youth who has just been publicized in London as the world’s most amazing pedestrian. He recently left London on a 12,000- mile walk to Tokyo. He hopes to ar- vive in Tokyo for the Olympic Games in September, 1940. There is a great deal to walking, Fritz explained to the London re- porters. Theré is a code of ethics. Fritz walks by rules. Anyone who thought that all there was to it was to step outside the house and begin walking is hereby disillu- sioned. Because of the facts of geogra- phy, Pritz will have to cover 2500 miles of his trip by ‘boat. This dis- tance must be made up by side trips on foot.

He must always carry a minimum weight on his back of 44 pounds. That, pals, is heavy after the first thousand miles. Fritz explained his methods read- ily. He walks at night—by moon- light. He rests 15 hours each day. Be- tween capitals of the various na- tions, he is sworn to eat only fruit and to drink only lemonade or water. And, when he was stopped by another pedestrian who asked the Wes Barrett's Royal Alaskans [ ] Everyone Invited PICTURE OF YOURSELF When You Go Out This Holiday Week-End, Fully Equipped with JUNEAU-YOUNG TACKLE THAT GETS ’EM!
