Américan running star, yester- day ran 200 meters over a curved track in 21 2-5 scconds, defeating Houben, the crack German cham- pion of Crefeld. Houben, however, took the 100 meter race from Pad- dock and Liren Morchison in the time of 10 4.5 seconds. The American athletes, who stop- ped here én route from Sweden, cap- tured most of the events on the pro- gram of a special meet held under the auspices of the Berlin Athletic eluyb. The showing of the Americans is considered remarkable because they had traveled all night and enter- ed the meet shortly after their arri- val here. The visitors were cordially applauded by a large crowd of spec- tators. AUSTRALIANS PLAY AGAIN.
