BY THOMAS R. HI UNE 12, a week from ne day, date of The Evening Star’s national championship mara- thon, brings to mind the tough- est human in Great Britain at the end of the eighteenth century. It was on & June'12 that the celebrated Laird of Ury, Capt. John Barclay, collected a bet of 1,000 guineas that he could walk 1,000 miles in 1,000 hours. He started at midnight, June 1, and fin- ished at 3:30 p.m., June 12. Here's an average item in the ploits of this durable man, plucked | from the press of his time: “Having gone to Col. Farquharson's house in Aberdeenshire, he went out a 5 o'clock in the morning to enjoy grouse shooting, where he traveled at least 30 miles. He returned to the colonel’s house by 5 in the afternoon and after dinner set out for Ury, 60 miles away, which he walked in 11 | hours without stopping once for re- freshments. He attended his ordinary business at home and in the after- noon walked to Lawrence Kirk, where | he danced at a ball during the night, | and got back to Ury at 7 am. He did | not sleep, but spent the day in par- tridge shooting.” Barclay Really Steps. ABRAHAM LINCOLN MONTE- VERDE, president of the Interna- tional Marathon Runners’ Association, holds the official record for the New York to Los Angeles walk, 3,415 miles =179 days, 10 hours and 10 minutes, | which he accomplished in 1929 for the only record for the trancontinental | hike recognized by the American Amateur Athletic Union—and Monte- verde accounted it a big day when he footed 50 miles. Monteverde was 59 years old when he realized a boyhood ambition to walk across the continent and the path in places was not conducive to speed—he lost three toenails early in the going—but his performance ap- pears hardly comparable to some of the feats of the Laird of Ury. To wit: In 1798 he walked 70 miles in 14 hours. In 1799 he walked 150 miles, Lon- don to Bristol and back, in two d In 1801 he walked 300 miles in five | Washington's useful ceiving from Renresen‘ative Sa utility outfielder here is shown re- m Hobbs of Alabama the Sport- ing Ncws trophy for being the most valuable player in the Southern Association last year, as President Clark Griffith of the Nationals looks on America tackle at Alabama U Hobbs, like Sington, also was an all- The presentation was made be- tween games of the double-header yesterday at Griffith Stadium. —A.

By the Assoclated Press PSOM DOWNS, England, June 1.—Crowds swarmed again onto Epsom Downs’ rolling acres today for the opening of the Spring meeting, which will be climaxed by tomorrow’s renewal of the $56,000 Derby, the world’s most trying and treacherous horse race. Picking tomorrow’s victorious 3- year-old was one of the toughest jobs in the 157-year history of the classic. There wasn't a standout colt among the 21 probable starters; there had not been a really confident prediction | of victory by any owner, trainer or | jockey, and there appeared to be at | least six “probable” winners. Cash Book Now 13-2. ORD ASTOR'S Cash Book re- mained the new 13-to-2 favor- | ite, but chances were good that he | would be supplanted by Le Ksar or | Solfo at the final Victoria Club call over tonight. Goya II, the American owned and bred Perifox and the Grand Duke completed the big six. Boyd Rochfort, trainer of Perifox, told the Associated Press the son of Gallant Fox was ready, “but we could use a little rain.” Although the Epsom course has a thick blanket of grass, it is hard as a board underneath, due to rainless weather in the last 10 days.

ERRYVILLE, Va., June 1.—The stables of Mr. and Mrs. George P. Greenhalgh of Springsbury, this county, ruled the forty- fourth annual exhibition of the Blue Ridge Hunt horse show, held yesterday at Carter Hall, the estate of Gerard B. Lambert of Millwood. Performing under ideal weather conditions, Springsbury entries had plenty of class and a variety of horses to captire the major portion of the 18 classes carded. But the most out- standing performance did not come from Springsbury, but from the stables | of William C. ipp of Middleburg, who had a classy jumper in Catalan | Boy, winning the lightweight hunter class and the Apollo event with a sec- | ond in the green hunter class. i Mr. and Mrs. Greenhalgh had win- | ners in the 3-year-old hunters, green hunters, middle and heavyweight hunters and yearlings suitable to be- come hunters, besides a few seconds and thirds here and there.

This fight received more publicity in Great Britain than any of the great naval battles of the war. Nobody in Amcrica ever heard of it. ‘This was a case where the trainer received more credit than the fighter. | It was generally held, probably with some justice, that the victory belonged to the Scotch laird, rather than to Crib. He was extolled as the savior of his country. Folks had been scep- tical before, but the results were so outstanding that there have been few major athletic contests since which have not been preceded by a period of training. ‘While long-distance walks were the favorite form of endurance contest in Barclay's day, all sorts of queer “mar- athons” were reported in the sporting press. Shaves 82 Men in Hour. TH’US‘ in 1817, it is recorded: “A singular wager took place on Monday, the 27th, by J. Gornall, the hairdresser of Scotland road, Liver- pool, who undertook to shave 60 men in an hour, which he completed in three-fourths of the time. He pro- ceeded, however, to the expiration of the hour, when he had shaved 82 men in a masterly style.” In April of that same year there was & merry-go-round marathon, when “a man named Pitters of Salisbury un- dertook to run 18 miles in two hours in a circle 110 yards in diameter. He finished by five minutes.” About the same time appeared the following item: A gentleman now in | Edinburgh has engaged for £1,500 sterling to ride 150 miles, then walk 10 miles to the moor, kill 40 brace | of game, and walk 10 miles back, all | to be done in 24 hours. ‘We suspect the anonymous gentle- man was none other than the Laird | of Ury himself.
