FULLER, JR. HETHER its athletes can ride bicycles well won't mean any pcints to a school in the annual public high school championship track meet Friday in the Central Stadium, but 35 years ago, when these affairs started, it meant plenty. A two-mile bicycle race was one of the most important events of; the first of these championship| meets, held June 3, 1896, on the Georgtown University campus. = | In The Star of May 8, 1896 it was | announced that Central, Eastern, Busi- | ness and Western would meet in | “friendly contests” for the champion- ship of the high schools. It was | pointed out the affair was an innova- | tion which was originally planned for November 15, 1895, but postponed until | the June, 1896, date because of lack of | time for Prermrlnnn and the rapid ap- | proach of cold weather Decision to hold the championships was reached at a mass meeting of yepresentatives of the various schools. The representatives included Phil Tin- yber B. Farrow and Fred N Albert of Central: Hall W. Chappel, Willisam M. Hallam and Gilbert W. | Kelly of Eastern; Eugene T. Gough, | Newton H. Ferre and Dana White of | Business, and H. P. Hudson, Charles | A, Taussig_and Allan E. Berry of Western. Phil Tindall was named chairman of the committee and Wil- | liam Hallam, secretary. | To have been eligible for the meet 8 student must have attended the school he represented since Jnnuny.“l Star Gave Trophy. | The Evening Ster Newspzper Co. Trophy was offered to the team scoring the most points, the cup to b2 con- | tested for annually. The events aside | from the bicycle race were he'd under the rules of the Intercollegiate A. A. The bike race was under the L. A. W The meet aroused real interest and daily practice was conducted at the various schools. Trainer Foley rounded | the boys into shape. | The events opened at “2:40 o'clock” | and Central piled up 68 points to win | the meet. Eastern was a r second | with 17. Western scored three points. | Apparently Business did not register | & point. olly of Central won the 10)-yard 1-5 seconds, followed in order by Tindall, Central; Coffin, tral, and Taussig, Western. It seems, though, that this was by no means the best time in which school- boys here had run the century, as Guy E. Davis of Western stepped the dis- tance in 1892 in 10 4-5 seconds. Dumars of Central won the shotput with & heave of 34 feet 8 inches. n- derwodd of Central was second and | § Maupin of Eastern third. Underwood | ot feet in the trials, but faltered the final, In the bicycle race Wilson, Central, was the victor with Weaver, Eastern, second; Williams, Egstern, third, and Darby, ‘Western, fourth. The race, how- ever, was protested, and it was thought that Weaver probably would be given Curtiss and Marean, both of Central, an rean, of Central, tied for first place in the pole vault of 8 feet 7 inches. This, however, could not compare with the leap in 1892 of Guy Davis, who, incidentally, was doubtless & remarkable all-around ath- lete. Davis cleared 9 feet 1 inch. Irv-| ing Gregg of Central vaulted 9 feet in | 1890. . In the 220-yard dash, though, Ruff of Central eclipsed Davis’ mark. He ‘won the event in 24 4-5 seconds. Davis had stepped it in 25 seconds. In the broad jump also Davis’ best effort, 17 | feet 10 inches, was beaten when Farrow | of Central leaped 18 feet 9 inches. An- other old mark went by the boards | when Stuart of Central did the mile | in 5 minutes 19 seconds. F. A. Nichol- son previously had run the distance in 5 minutes 46 seconds on Analostan Island. | In the 220-yard hurdles Curtiss of | Central turned in a 30-second perform- ance to equal the time of Taussig made in 1892, Curtiss and Farrow both did better than 4 feet § inches in the high jump, | but this mark also was under that of | Davis, who in 1892 cleared 5 feet 1| inch. ong of Central and Paul | ‘l!"s.\amnf estern each did 5 feet in Bernle Wefers Directed. Bernie Wefers, crack sprinter, man- | 8ged the meet. Other officials included Robert Dick Douglass, Louis 8. Wells, R. Lee, W. B. Hibbs, Eimer Speare, J E. Jones. Reichelderfer, Wilkins. James A. Handley, Clairborne, George T. Cox, English, Wilson, J. Earl Ambrose, Pox and McCormick The committee in charge of the meet apparently did rot wish to risk financial embarrassment as it was announced that the medals and prizes cther than The Btar Trophy, of course, would be bought “after the Finance Committee reports.” Rudolph Kauftmann, on behalf of The Star, presented The Star Trophy to the Central team. The presentation was made in the office of the prinicpal in the presence of the participants in the meet. The trophy was held by the team until the opening of the next school year, when it was turned over to the sehool. Describing the presentation, which took glte June 15, 1896, The Star of that day said “After a few words from Dr. F. R Lane, director of the high school, Mr. Kauffmann was introduced the cup he took occasion to cemmend the young men for past work and encourage them in their future sthletic pursuits. Capt. Ruff, for th: Athletic Association, accepted the tro- phy and extended the thanks of the or- anization. It was later placed on ex- bition in the main corridor of the bufld&n{ and admired by the entire seheol.” | Two I;eft-Héfi(iers On Cup Net Team | By the Associated Press.
