EW YORK, February 14—Paavo Nurmi of Finland tonight opened 2 new era in track history, when he ran two miles at Madison Square Garden in less than 9 minutes. His time, 8 minutes, 58 1-5 seconds, was much faster than any other pe has ever achieved, indoor or out, and in making his sensational run urmi also bettered h s own time for a mile and three-quarters, Feaching he line in 7 minutes 51 2-5 seconds, cutting four seconds from the record. Starting against Verne Booth, Tarry Helme of Georgetown and MacAulay L. Smith of Yale, Nurmi apped Smith twice and was nearly a lap and ahalf ahcad of the others ks he flashed down the final stretch with official former Johus Hopkins champion, calling upon him to add peed. When he crossed the tape, timers and judges fell upon him and ried to explain in the sigh language just what had been done. If he understood, he failed to show v the slightest change in his ex- vessionless face that lie was elated. o went to his sweater, donned it nd walked off the floor while the rowd stood and applauded Nurmi’s remarkable performance ame after Willie Ritola of the Finn- fh-American Athletic Club had_e; hblished new marks for 3 miles ‘and T 232 miles. His record for the full istance was 14:01 2-5, and miles, 11:44. He, himself, oth previous records. Ritola, who set a new i held mile record 9:03 3-5 at Buffalo on Thursday, the | Newark ark which was shattered tonight by urmi, has been the Olympic cham- ion's greatest rival during the Win- T, and his race tonight was run in he same faultless style that he has sed since the indoor season began ie twice lapped Andy Craw of New ork, the second to finish ,n the vent. Nurmi's epoch-making race came at Jre end of a week during which he articipated in four track meets at pur far separated points. Monday ght found him running in Portland, e. He ran in Buffalo Thursday and Syracuse last night, and during the st three days has added five world arks to his already large list Tonight he ran steadily, a fast pace hat soon passed all opposition. On track that he admittedly likes, he ntinued his terrific stride, and, with fvo-thirds of the distance gone, had pped Verne Booth, intercollegiate istance champion while at Johns opkins. Still he sprinted and might ave cut more seconds from the ecessary time had he offered a spurt the end Dived to Finish Line. Rounding the last turn he saw the cials beckoning and he put forth 1 his efforts in a last dive for the ne as the crowd rpse to its feet. Other competitions of the annual cet of the New York A.
