PAT MCDONALD ESTABLISHES !
A NEW WEIGHT RECORD j
Aiew York, March 24.—"Pat” j
McDonald, of the N. Y. A. 0., es- '
tablishes a new world’s record
last week, tossing Ihe 24-pound
shot 39 feet 3 1-4 inches. The
real star of Ihe annual senior in
door championships of the Ama- j
teur Athletic Union, held in Mad- j
ison Square Garden, was Abel H. j
Kiviat, of tin’ lrish-Ameriean J
Athletic Club, who won the 000 j
and 1,000 yard runs. j
In romping away with Ihe big
middle distance events, Kiviat
made a new American record in
the 1,000 yard run of 2:15 4-5, :
shortening his own record of two1
years’ standing by Iwo-lifths of a
second. An hour later he led
“Ted” Meredith, Ihe Olympic win
ner. by inches in the 000 yard run. i
with Tom Halpin. of Boston, a
close third.
McDonald exceeded his own
world’s record by live inches when i
he smashed the mark for 25
pouml stud [ml. The former mark
was made at Celtic park outdoors
18 months ago.
Kolehmainen, Ihe Finnish long j
distance runner, dropped out of
Ihe two mile race, after tailing
the Held of seven runners for a
little over a mile. Apparently he
was unable to warm up in Ihe dis
tance, which is shorter than lie
fancied.
Harry Smith, the ten-mile na
tional champion, went cold, also a
lap ahead of the Finn, and drop
ped out. William J. Kramer, the
former cross country champion,
led the Held in the ten mile event
and was never headed.
The American indoor records
were equalled in the 70-yard hur
dle by James 1. Wendell, of Wes
leyan, and Howard P. Drew, the
negro sprinter from, Springfield.
Mass., in the 75-yard dash.
A penalty of three yards for
breaking in the final of the 300
yard run failed to defeat Fred
Burns, of Boston, who won and
came within one-fifth of a sec
ond of the American record of 33
seconds.

and says his sketch was written
before "Temporal Power" was
published.
