A C C. of New ew NewYork ew York said that when the athletes are in college they are under lose close observation and when t they become m free r lances r as It were e they y disregard the h training ached sched schedule f ule Ing and That that reason results just In r i about their poor strikes showIng show show- the nail on the head bead Of course there are Instances where athletes haved bared one well weli both In and out of college as the late J. J B. B Taylor the colored runner of the University of Pennsylvania Pennsylvania Penn penn- sylvania II H. Trube u of t the Martinique Mar Mar- l u mile and a ex r II and d oth oth- ers era These are exceptions exception The New York A A. A C. C need needs Trube Inthe in inthe the inc u mile mile run for their Irish u who rivals have t n the inc mile mile run for their u u who t n Riley Bonhag and Sullivan can s step ep some In this event Riley won the mile In th the junior juner Metropolitan championships recently Bon Bonhag hag says he wont won't run longer distances till Ull the hot weather is over and Sullivan is training at Celtic park for the Indoor military militar- mile championship championship cham cham- so 0 it Is said said- Trube is one of the collegians who did particularly well after leaving college but the chances ore are that he will not run for some time Ume He said as much last winter and has not run since Some athletes have a habit of ot saying g gh that h they are going to quit ul but rg stick gt t to it 1 just the go same but Trube does not seem to be among them While on the subject of collegians making good when out of college it is well to mention E. E T T. Paull though he must be spoken of in a breath of lation Paull was wa heralded as us the promising promising prom prom- ising tsing winner of ot the Martinique mile be before before before be- be fore th the race was run but when it was as over those who had lauded him sang a somewhat different tune Then with the outdoor season and the Intercollegiate championships Paull came to his own and ran a mile In faster time than any born American ever did It was close to the worlds world's record held by Conneff At college ollege Paull did well but out of at It Ithe Ithe he hI did not shine by any means If It Paull puts on his running shoes In the fall and spins around the boards there will bo be something to tell for It that It-that that much is sure even though he seems seem to take to the cinders better than to th the tho boards hoards Paull Paul however Is not keeping up his work now as he ha is busily engaged as a I purser on a steamboat where Conners is his boss bols It would seem sem that athletes have hae moods Take R.

N J. J Cartmell the U. U of P P. athlete in the hundred in 10 seconds running with the wind and getting getting getting get get- ting there therl by a mere mero foot This does docs not look like 9 5 3 form and the figures certainly look phony now if It they never did Bonhag the I. I A. A A. A C. C distances also has his moods He does not like the cinder path as well as the boards yet sometimes he runs very er poorly even over his f favorite medium Not long lone ago they gc Fn std said 1 that Bonhag was as becoming a has has- hero and it certainly looked as a If he lie were judging by the performances he hewan was wan giving Then he turned around and broke the indoor record for four miles |
