NEW YORK, Jan.—When Ed Leader came from Washing ton and after putting Yale crews on the map in the short distance race, he took his Blue crew up to New London and left Harvard astern, the writer listened to thecomment of a half dozen captains and coaches of earlier winning Yale and Harvard crews who had as sembled at the race. Each gave as his independent ciew that the j Leader stroke was the one his own winning crew had rowed! Now Paavo Nurmi, the great Finnish runner, is here and under j the observation of dozens of successful track coaches. And it is not strange that one coach compares him to Mel Sheppard, and another to Charley Paddock, and another I to Kolehmainen, and another to Alfred Shrubb, and so on—all-star runners. In rowing, every coach for fifty years has been trying to get a stroke that on the recovery does not check the forward progress of the boat; and in running every coach has been doing his best to make the body and arms aid rather than re tard the speed of liis pupil. And so when their boat wins they be lieve their picture is right, and ten years later they see another boat slipping along through the water and coming into a commanding lead they recognize the old picture even though the mists of time have blund ered their recollections a bit, and when a superlative runner like Nurmi appears before the track ex perts, they are reminded of other winners, and perhaps with accur acy. Nothing succeeds like success, and we can all see Nurmi on the night of January 6 and make our own pic- j tures and call him a Sheppard or a Paddock or a Shrubb—by the way ! why not a Leu Myers or a W. G. I George or a Workman? For Example. j Psychiartrists make their tests j often times by suggesting a word | to the patient and then studying his 'reaction by listing the words that ; the “stimulus” word causes to pop j into his mind, might make a most | interesting adaptation of that prin ciple in sport. For instance, if one says, “baseball,” allowing three an swers to each test. Here are some j of the writer’s “reactions”: Baseball—Walter Johnson, Babe Ruth, Stanley Harris. Boxing—Jack Dempsey, Tom Gib bons, Benny Leonard. Football—Grange Garbiseh, and Rockne. Golf—Bobby Jones, Walter Hagen, Cyril Walker. Women—Dorothy Hurd, Marion Hollins, Glenna Collett. . Tennis—Tilden, Johnston, and Rich ards. Women—Helen Wills, Marian Jes sup, Helen Jacobs. Track—Paavo Nurmi, Charlie Pad dock, Ray Buker. | Billiards—Willie Hoppe, Ralph j j Greenleaf, Roger Conti.
