The thousands upon thousands of People who accept the annual op- portunity of exercising their lungs | did so with double duty. The same amount of exuberant joy usually spent in the blowing of horns and tooting of whistles welcoming: the new year in were expended for 1,200 or more young athletes of Greater New York and its vicinity when the hands of all well-regulated clocks reaclied the hour of 12. These athletes were the contestants in what was probably tie greatest running race held in the history of athletics dn the United States.
