THE SriCE NORTHWEST NOTES. Age of the Pugilists. There always has been a curious desire among the sports to know the correct age of Robert Fitzsimmons, but so far no one has been able to find out just when old Fitz was born. It has been taken for granted that he first saw the light of day at Cornwall, England, 40 years ago, and is, therefore, the oldest fighter in active service Fitz was raised in Australia, where he learned the trade of a blacksmith. The fact that Fitz comes from Australia brings to notice a striking feature about the fighters from the Antipodes. Comparison proves that with few exceptions the Australian boxers are far more rugged than the Americans and last longer in the ring.- At least such are the conclusions that must be drawn when we stop to consider that nearly all the are from in the ring the land of the kangaroo. Boh Fitzsimmons, Dan Creedon, Joe Goddard, Frank Slavin, Billy Murphy and several others, including George Dawson and Young Grlffo, can be taken as examples. Griffo was until a few months ago fighting every week, but is now down and out. Jim Corbett is the oldest of the Yankee boxers still in service, and he is but 36 years of age. John L.

Duffys phenomenal run of 100 yards in 0:09 Says James E. Sullivan, secretary of the Amateur Athletic Union: If there is any man alive who can run sixty yards in 0:061-it Is Arthur Duffy of Georgetown university. As a matter of fact there is no doubt In my mind that he broke the existing record of 0:06 In his phenomenal run of 100 yards in 0:09 at the intercollegiate games on Saturday. I was near the starting point when the boys were sent away in the final heat of the 100, and Duffy seemed to run like wildfire in a gale of wind. I never expect to see a human being again with such a wonderful burst of speed as I saw that day. Says Evert J. Wendell, former Intercollegiate champion sprinter: Arthur F. Duffys performance of runwill go ning 100 yards in 0:09 down in athletic history as the greatest achievement on the cinder path of the present age.
