W. Borg.aportsman extraor- dinaire, whose silrouette appeared in the newspaper—The New Britain Herald—last evening, and just as the editor thought the darned con- test was going stale, he picked -on an exceptionally popular young man which brought the column sipping back to its place in the sun. J. Hen- ry Roraback, the convivial head of the Connecticut Light & Power, should be proud, indeed, to have a gentleman with . the - characteristics of Legionnaire Borg, in the same business and palitical roll call as himself. The letter mentions the Hoover club, but that ‘doesn't make any difference, even it the silhouette editer did lean toward the wet plat. form of Al. Smith in the last elec- tlou—l]e(tho editor) ain't mad at ‘em any more, so, therefors, Al Borg gets & writeup which sh uld have every indication of going in the family album along side of his wonderful war record. Walter Schwartz of 22 Lincoln street gets the dollar for his letter which packs a neat set of compli- ments, eclipsing those written by the suave hand of the “complimentary editor” who stays up nights think. ing verbal bouquets to throw New Britain’s star settlers. Here's the letter, from the nimble type- writer of our magic friend. The gentleman whose. silhouette appeared in last night's Herald is none other than Arvid Wal- demar Borg, the genial commercial manager of the Connecticut Light & Power Company. Besides making housewives happy. by selling them the latest in electri- cal appliances and Frigidaires he plays a mean game of golf. He is 2 member of the 8equin Golf club, and has the distinction of membership in the hole-in-one club, having made it last yéar in the Bequin course. __NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD. Ho is also 8 member of the Ame: ican Legion having served in the Aviation Corps during the war. He is a member of Harmony lodge, A. F..& A. M, and the New Britain Chamber of Commercd. He ‘was ac- tive in the last election being vice president of the Hoover club. Who.is he tonight? Guessing will ®o along the lines of careful scru- tiny of-the news ‘columas of the Herald, you'll ind out about him. Over around the Shuttle feadow Club today, you'll hear his name on every tongue ‘for they are boosting him for state president of an organ- ization of which he has been the tead in New Britain, Of course, the editor, who is very fond of this coming young man, would like to do his modest bit toward putting one of our . local men over the top to secure the atate honor. The éntire bunch is over at the club now, ex- changing votes, and . by-tomorrow, we will hear whether our local] man comes through with flying colors. Now for a few hints as to how he makes his livehood—! traveling man, ‘representing ' an -East Berlin concern that recently built an a dition, so diligently ‘did he put over the product which pours forth from that institution which has its parent factory right here in New Britain. He lives on the mme atreet as his father whose silhouette haa appear- ed in these columns, and Dame Ru- mor hath it, that he inherits ti ecutive ability of the pater, if the editor may be allowed to borrow a word from Latin. I any of the boys cut at the club this afternoon hi any trouble guessing, ask Mr. Fish, he'll know who he is. In conolusion, the club could not select. a finxr young man to push as a head of an organization which is respected all over the country. Who is he?

Hats That Talk For Themselves 188 MAIN ST. COR. COURT NEW RECORD HAY " E BROKEN AGAIN Cliude Bracey, Speed Artst, Be- lieves He Gan Sbade Mark New -York, June 11 (P—It has taken nearly a quarter-century to cut the-record for the 100-yard dash by one-fifth of a second—From Dan Kelly's first official George- Simpson's 9 pected to receive official approval— but the new mlrk may not last more than a month. At least that is the conviction of Claude Bracey, the speed star of Rice Institute, Texas, who was run- ner-up to Simpson in the famous record-smashing race at Chicago last Baturday. Bracey, here today, believes the 100-yard record ‘will be - crack>d again, at the National A. A. U. championships in Denver, July 3-4-5, and he has high hopes of being the sprinter to-do the cracking. The aprint fleld -for the big title meet will be the best ever gathered together, in Bracey's belief, as well as that of his coach, the veteran Ernie Hjertberg, even though it now seems likely that a pulled tendon will keep Simpson out of this com- petition. Bracey expects to find ar- rayed against him such atars as Ed- die Tolan, of Michigan; Frank Wy- koff of Glendale, Calif.; Russell Sweet of the Olympic club, S8ap Francisco; Karl Wildermuth of Georgetown, and Percy Williams, the curly-haired Canadian who wears the Olympic sprint crow Bracey is especially anxious again to match strides with Williams, who beat the Texan in the Olympic semi- finals, 'Williams is the fastest finisher 1 ever saw,” said Bracey, in tribute to the great Canadian. “Some of the matches at Chicago caught Simpson in as low as 9 3-10," Hjertberg pointed out, “and Bracey was barely a foot behind him. Given favorable conditions, the record may be cut to 9 1-5 at Denver.” - Yet it wasn't so long ago that coaches and officials generally re- garded 9 2.5 for the 100" as mext to impossible, feeling that the limit of human speed has b.en reached. “Bracey, although big and rangy, is a better man at the 100 than the 220," Hjertberg continued. “I think he ecan beat anybody, Simpson in- cluded, at the shorter distance. The Ohio runner won last S8aturday be- cause of a better start. He was los- ing ground to Bracey at the finis: And that was the first time S8impso ever beat the Texas boy.” Bracey has une more year of col- lege competition in which to seek additional sprint laurels, He has im- proved steadily under Hjertberg's coaching. Extra weight has helped him this year. A six-footer, he now scales around 160 pounds. He has a. 17-year-old brother, who is 6 feet 2 inches tall and also possessed of sprint ability. The Texas star is here to com- pete in an invitation benefit meet at the Yankee Stadium next Monday evening when his competition in the sprints will include Eddie Tolan of Michigan. After that he will start training for the national champion- ships. Lawnmowers are heing cxported from the United States at the rate of 12,000 a month, H. J. DONNELLY CO. INC.
