NURMI SECOND CHOICE IN N. Y. RACE TONIGHT • 7 - Dopesters Give Edge to Helff rich in Half-Mile Feature — Finn Reported in Poor Shape. By Henry L.

In his farewell appearance in the United States, Nurmi will attempt two things in the feature event of the card arranged by the FinnishAmerican Athletic Club —he will attempt to beat Allen Helffrich, the best middle distance runner In the United States, and to displace Ted Meredith's nine-year -old record of 1.51 1-5 for a half mile. Prominent officials and coaches who gathered here today for the event were rather frank in the opinion that he could not live up to his plans of doing the distance in 1:50, and that he would have the race of hi-3 life to beat the Pennsylvania State star.

There are too many turns on the track here for a world’s record halfmile —unless Nurmi is greater than the super-man he Is generally recognized as being

MIKE ANDi PUNCHING PAUL GO McTigue’s Defense Against Berlenbach’s Slugging in Gotham Bout Friday. Bu Times Special . NEW YORK. May 26.—Ring fob lower* are maintaining a strlol policy of no entangling with bookmakers in wagering on the outcome of the light-heavyweight championship bout ill the interests of New York’s undernourished babies next Friday. Whether a rejuvenated Mike Mo Tlgue will retain his crown in tin face of the onslaughts of Paul 800 lenbach, is apparently too much a matter for conjecture to assume any great importance ns a proposition for financial speculation. Both training camps are bubbling with optimism as the time approaches for the gong. The paramount question is whether McTigue’s superior defense will be able to stop the terrific fotce of Bcrlenbach'i punches. Nature has removed tha champion's handicap of a weak right hand, which bus caused him no end of trouble in tlie past. The challenger will have the advantage of youth, being but 24 j ears of age: the champion Is now 33. Berlenbach, of a little stoeklei build, will probably have a slight edge in weight. The management of the milk fund carnival, of which the BerlenbachMcTigue fight will he the feature, predict a gate amounting to 8200.000,
