ete nee Robert Simpson’s Feat of Run- ning 120-Yard High Hurdle Race in 143-5 Seconds Most Startling Performance in Hi tory of Athletics. nore Now’ York ventne Werks = 'HE most startling etbletic per- formance ever recorded is that of Robert Simpson of the Uni- versity of Missourt. In the Missouri Valley Conference meet Simpson won the high hurdle race—120 yards—and was timed in 14 8-6 seconds. ‘This is so amazing performance that all close followers of athletics ‘wonder if the timing was correct. But Mt is very Ukely that Simpson did Fan in 148-6, for in the past two weeks has twice been credited with running the hurdies in 16 4-6 @econds, breaking and then equalling Ble own world’s record. Bimpson is said to have the most perfect hurdling form ever seen any- where. He is undoubtedly the world’s @reatest all-around short distance runner and jumper. In one recent meet he won five events, and his run Bing broad jump of over 24 feet is Pretty good indication of his ability to get up apeed. EACH CROSS intends to come out of bis “permanent retire- ment” in a few weeks. Like all the rest of ‘em, Leachic doesn’t stay convinced. Young Saylor knocked him out. It was the first time Leachie had taken the long count—barring that collapse in the forty-first round of a fight with Fighting Dick Hyland in California—and Leachie folt dis- couraged. But now Charlie White has come @long and knocked out Saylor in a Found, so Leachie has begun to think old man Hard Luck may have been riding-on his shoulders the night he et Saylor, Leach is training with his brother Marty, who fights Nugent to-night. REDDY WELSH has about de- cided upon giving Charlie White a twenty-round chanee, At least that is the rumor from Freddy's headquarters, Freddy has ; Outaped White a couple of times, : 4 thinks he could beat the soporifig ‘Wallop again, even in twenty rounds. Ie quite a different matter with Leonard. Welsh found himself slow as a truck horse compared to the new lightweight challenger, and he ‘won't consider an offer of any kind for a long bout to a decision with the youngster who whipped him so easily tm ten, ‘Welsh has a world of endurance, Age is beginning to show in him, His epeed and his eyo for distance are not what they used to be. But he seems strong as ever, The lghtweight champion will be taking a chance if he fights White twenty rounds, and must be given credit for accepting a risk at last, White may: not be fast enough to hit Welsh on the right spot, but if he does happen to drop the “kick” over —soodby championship for Mr. ‘Welsh, White ts without doubt o: of t hardest hitting lightweig that ever fought with gloves, He sacrifices some speed for the purpose of setting himself for his punches, but he is so cool, deliberate and ac- curate that he is likely to catch Freddy floundering ‘some time during twenty rounds.

Meredith won his quarter-mile race in seconds, clipping two-fifths of a second from the old mark. This Hale and hearty score and ten. Do you know such a man?
