Captained by the wonderful Javk- @on, hero of the Stockholm Olympic games, the visiting English flyers shape up a decided favorite over their American opponents—in fact, it fs doubtful if any of the American teams can offer enough resistance to even trouble the fleet-footed Britons.

HOSE two old 5 - your Uncle Samuel and John Bull, will fight the second of their 1914 international battles this j# afternoon on Franklin Field, The Grst one was the court tennis match (a which Jay Gould beat George In the feature event of the University of Pennsyl- vanin’s athletic carnival Oxford's telay team, the best cross-country Funners in Great Britain, will oppose fwaners from thirteen leading Amer- {ean colleges in @ four-mile relay for the Okford team. Asked in Phil- adelphia how he regarded his chances he quickly replied: “We will have no excuses to offer think we shall need them.” Norman aber, an American Rhodes scholar s Oxford, is the sec- ond strongest man on the English team. While at Brown University here Taber was one of the leading middle distance runners in this coun- try. Taber will find familiar condl- tions at Franklin Field. Because he knows the track better’ it is possible that Taber will travel a mile in better time than the great Jackson. Sproule and Gaussen are two run- ners that thousands at the games will eagerly watch. If either of these two “break” badly it will spoil the record work that Jackson and Taber are almort bound to do and give the defending teams a fine chance for victory. Sproule and Gaussen are reputed to be wonderful cross country runners, but their best time for a mile has been zealously guarded dur- ing the Britishers’ trip here. The Oxford team made the journey to this country especially to compete in the Penn games. They have trained at Brown and the University of Penn for the last two weeks, and, accord- ing to reports, the foreigners are in excellent form. The Oxford team will return to England next Tues- day, having competed in only one race in this country. DREW MAY DO 93-5 SECONDS FOR DASH AGAIN. ‘The international relay race ts four miles, each runner going a mile. It will be the lat event on the day's programme, which will consist of nearly five hours of various track and fleld competitions. There are many races that should furnish a stiffer fight than the inter- national relay, although it {s the fea- ture because of the presence of the Oxford team. Colleges from all over the country will have entries, and a thousand would be a conservative estimate of the number of athletes who'll take part. Of this number are many with international reputations, including Howard Drew, the colored flyer, who will Figs 4 to show how he did 93-5 seconds for the hundred in California recently.
