HiLe AND ZUNA SPRINTED INTO THE American Boats To Race Abroad According to Chris Smith of Algo- nac, Mich., who has built many of the speed boats that have represented this country in the races for the Harms- worth trophy, and who is exhibiting Miss America at the Motor-Boat Show in Grand Central Palace this week, it looks as if it would be the United States against only England this year in the contest for the tro- phy, as France has not been heard from. “Challenges must be received before March 1. Each country challenging has the privilege of starting three boats, and if Mr. Smith is correct the United States will send that many across the water. From all indications these will be Miss America and two other craft which Smith is building, one for Gar Wood and the other for the wite of that prominent speed boat de- votee.

Feb. %.— Jack Kearns, manager of Jack Demprey, heavyweight —_pugilist champion, denied to-day that he had communicated with M. Descamps, Georges Carpentier’s manager, and a championship match with Carpen- tier until the Frenchmen arrived in the United States. “It is a mistake that I telegraphed to M. Descamps or communicated with him in any way,” said Kearns, commenting on an interview with Descamps, published to-day in Paris. The European champion's manager was credited with saying that Kearns cabled that Dempsey had not been jgned by any promoter and urged at negotiations be opened with Tex Rickard. “There will be nothing doing trom us until Descamps and Carpentier get to New York,” said Kearns. ‘Then we will really see who hus Carpen- ter.

I followed the wonder- ful Greek athlete to around the 20th mile, where he seamed to be weaken- ing. I sprinted; Nick made a des- perate effort to follow, but they tell me he practically collapsed and was compeiled to retire. I felt sorry for Nick, because he ran a pretty race up to this time. “I attribute my stataina to my idea of training. Instead of running on level ground I usually pick out the largest hills for my course, For the recent race the Orange Mountains in Jersey was the ideal spot and I trained faithfully for one month. In my estimation a victory would place me up high among the committee io charge of selecting Olympic candi- dates and now I figure that my month's hard work has been repaid. “The hardest race I ever competed in was the Camp Dix-Trenton mara- thon held last July over a twenty five mile distance.
