J, Sept. 9.—The opening day of the national A. A. U. championships here not only gave the juniors a chance to do their stuff, but served as @ grand reunion for the old-tim- ers. Olympic men from all parts of the country sre on hand, ready for today's contests. Joie Ray was among those present, ‘the same old Joie, and to all ap- nces the same old speed. Sol Butler, with his six to eleven- inch grin, was also on deck and expects a lively time in the broad jump today with Gourdin of Har: ‘vard. Muchison was out for a short warmup and, altho he wouldn't admit tt, was just a bit worried over the reports of the newest sprint sensation, Al Le coney. The track was slow, In spite of previous reports, and resulted in mediocre time for most of the running events. The recent rains had joosened the top layer of cinders and the sprinters were handicapped in the first few drives after leaving their holew, It was the general belief that the track would have to dry out and speed up a@ bit for the big events today if an new records were to be established. De Hart Hubbard's leap of 24 feet 3% inches stamps him as a VETERAN TRACK STARS AT NEW ARK dangerous contender for senior honors today and places him {n a class with Butler and Gourdin Al Woodring is having trouble with a tendon tn his leg, which has bothered him for some time. He feels there is a possibility of it going back on him in the first sprint down the straightaway for the turn in the 440. Earl Thompson will make hir last appearance today. He has accepted a coaching position at Mx old school, Dartmouth, and will defend his hurdies title for the last time this afternoon, To all appearances he will retain his crown as there seems to#be no one in the field of starters to make him exert himself. He was a big | | PALTER | The keystone sack t# the key of the whole team.

Getting the ball in on the first hop Lane threw the $75,000 beauty out by 10 feet. O'CONNELL FAS’ ON BASES For a big fellow O'Connell ts re- markably fast on the bases, He showed « burst of speed in the third. He laid down a drag hit and Jake poped up the ball and threw wildly. O'Connell dashed clear | around to third base on the play, beating Barney's heave easily. If O'Connell would show the same ambition and life all the time as he | does on bases he would be a real wonder. He's a great hitting star, but rather colorless at the plate. He's just a fair outfielder, real star. | San Francis: H. PO. A. BB!
