BY CHARLES HOFF. VER since Kohlemainen ran his great race in the Stockholm stadium in 1912, the Fihns have had the hegemony in long-distance running. Kohlemainen's was the first big name, his race against the French- men’s idol, Jean Bouin, in the Olympics of 1912 has become historical, and his big victory in the marathon race in Antwerp, in 1920, was also a memorable feat. But Kohlemainen is not the only one to bring his country honor in long-distance running. His brother, Tatu Kohlemainen, has also shown a wonderful disposition to long-distance running, and now the Finns have a whole army of long-distance runners, able to beat the world. Nurmi's name was long ago known all over the world, and his bitter fight against his countryman, Ritola, in the Olympics, in Paris, was just as bitter as Kohlemainen's against Jean Bouin in Stockholm. After all, Nurmi is the greatest long-distance runner Finland has ever had. On all distances down to the middle distance, he is, without question, the best runner in the | world.
