THE EVE STORIES OF SPORTS TOLD BY EXPERTS RICH PICKINGS IN- ‘PRO’ GAME TEMPT SPEEDY AMATEURS atemrrenneeninnsst tpi Success of Dorando and Hayes Likeiy to Draw Many Runners Into Competition if Public Sup- port Is Given the Game. ITH the Hayes-Dorando match professional runnin; ‘i : has taken a great bom. ~ It wouldn't be at all surprising to) see many great amateurs turn to the | moneyed side of the game within | the next few months, Hayes and Dorando, as- | gregating their shares of the gate receipts, | Cleared $7,000 the other night. This 1s enough | to make many amateur athletes’ eyes stick | out with envy. Hayes got $5,000, which Is/ about as much as he'd get in ten years at the job he left when he went to England. But, of course, there was a peculiar sen- timent attached to the Hayes-Dorando race which will be entirely lacking in others. There was so much of a dispute after the (London Marathon; there Was so much sympathy for Dorando because he came so near winning and collapsed after taking what looked like a per- fectly safe lead, and there was so much of pride in little Johnny Hayes, the ‘boy who passed the others and was right on the job when Dorando fell. Dorando is going to run against Long- boat soon. The place for the race has imot been entirely decided upon, but imany cities will, want {t, and Dorando ‘will clear more, probably, than he did lin Madison Square Garden the other night. Longboat 1s a marvel when he 1s jright. He appeared in running races ‘only a little over two years ago, an un- ‘known Indian from @ Canadian reserva- ‘tion. Hod Carrier Uses His Gallop Form in the Mara- Longboat’s First Race. thon Races Longboat's first race was the Herald race at Hamilton, the home of Sherring, Marathon winner at Athens. Longboat knew nothing about running then. He was just-naturally a good runner, like most of the Indians. He appeared at Hamilton in a striped bathing suit and ran in it, He wore heavy brogans. He had never seen running shoes and didn't know such things were worn. But he won easily, and after that there were iplenty of men to coach him and look out for his interests. Longboat was ‘forced to quit after running about twenty miles in the London Marathon. He was in poor shape, ‘M CROWLEY vs. Dorando Pietri. That would make a great race if the athletic experts know anything @bout Marathon running. While tt 1s altogether out of the ques- tion, owing to the fact that Crowley 1s an amateur and Dorando a “pro,” a comparison of their regent races Is tn- teresting. Let us take Dorando first. He is a tried athlete of many Marathons, c man who'has competed against the greatest distance runners in the world. He has After Hayes had won—a few weeks| everything that gocs to make @ great | after—the Englishmen ran off a consola-|runner—speed, endurance, @ strong | tion Marathon, to give some English-| heart and experience. | men a chance to show after Hayes had ‘eft the country and Dorando had turned professional. Longboat ran in that and won in faster time than Hayes \had made. But the real Marathon wa: Dorando's race against Hayes was on an indoor track, a distance of 26 miles yards, Which he negotiated in 2h, Hm. 202, The track was the fast- est ever built in the Garden, and bank- trun on a blistering hot day, and the|ed enough te take any strain off the ‘one that Longboat took was in cool]runners. Jt was a merry-go-round weather. In spite of that fact, Long-| from beginning to end, and a boat may be able to give Dorando a hot time when they meet, if the great In- dian is in good shape. He is taller than Dorando by a foot or so, and has a long, easy stride that covers ground in fine style. Dorando 1s: quite willing to Shrubb, the English professional, the Marathon distance, after mile was run it was beate a sincoth path, Then there was t cheering of his countrymen, toge! with the band that played the airs of his native land.

Ten miles is his favorite distance, but he has run fif- teen miles in close to record time—1 hour 20 minutes 15 4-5 seconas. There is little doubt in the minds of experts tha: Shrubb can beat either Dorando or | Hayes over ten miles, but how he | would perform over a longer route, say the Marathon distance, ts prob- lematical, and would he quit to the gameness and endurance of the plucky little Itallan? Only @ match can prove that, but in ylew of the fact that Eng- land has always maintained that ten miles is enough for any man to run, a match twenty-six mile route Is unlikely. Sbrubb has been beaten only once in more than 1,500 races. He has out- classed everybody he ever raced in America, so that now it is impossible to finc any one man who can give him any kind of a race, During the past year Shrubb has raced against relays of from two to four men end distances from four to twelve miles, and won easily—not by yards but by laps. Shrubb has been running for ten years, and to-day is as good as ever. He attributes ‘this to hard work and a clean life, “I never train unless I feel like it,” says Shrubb, “Many men who go out to train when they are not feeling quite right do themselves more harm than 4 good. When 1 do train I work just as |nard as I do in a race.
