Says—
NEW YORK, Nov. 11—-It won't be long now until the historians start work on their annual reviews of the sports season. A lengthy and somewhat merbid chapter on the busts— or to be charitable, the disappointments, of the year will not bé out of order. High .in the list will have to be a recital of the “mile of the century.” T6 our mind this was the biggest bust of 1939. Sidney Wooderson had ru a record mile of 4.06.4 in his native England. In addition, he set new figures for the half, the threequarters and the 800 meters. i He came over here in midsummer to participate in the distinguished Princeton meet. Cunningham, San Romani, the Rideouts, all the great American milers were to, face him. And since the Princetofi’ track is notably fast and it did not seem fantastic to expect a smashing performance, the possibility of the fabulous four-minute mile was revived in all seriousness. . On the day of the race conditions were perfect. Wooderson and his trainer admitted they were completely ready for the dramatic test, and openly predicted a new record. But as you know, it never materialized. Wooderson was never a factor; he finished far back in a slow, dull race. There was an unpleasant incident. One of the Rideouts bumped the Britisher going into a turn and threw him off stride. Promptly the British writers, who had remained at home, raised a cry of “foul play.’ But it was significant that the British writers, wAo had accompanied
the runner hére, dismissed the incident as a routine, acéidental hap-
In any event, the Dat root not
Wooderson was already beaten at the time. No one knows yet exactly what happened to the Britisher, why he fell so far behind his standard speed. El Chico was another prize bust.
Remember how everyone was rave ing about this 2-year-old colt this time last year? Unofficial price makers had already made him the winter book favorite té win the Kentucky Derby. Seemingly there wasn't another colt around which could get up close to him. Well, you know what happened. El Chico didn't come on at all as a 3-year-old. Those who had him tabbed strictly as .a sprinter were correct. You never can tell about 2-year-olds. Few people mentioned Johnstown in the same. breath with El Chico at this time a year ago. But Johnstown not only won the Derby but was on-his way to become the horse of the year when he déveloped a cruel flaw in his breathing apparatus and had to be retired. ‘We had some notables busts, or disappointments, in baseball, too. Johnny Vander Meer was one. The year before the young Cincinnati pitcher had performed a baseball miracle by pitching two no-hit games in a row. No pitcher had ever done that before. Accordingly, Vander Meer became the most talked of pitcher in baseball. The National League had come up with a box office attraction to equal, if surpass, young Bob Feller of the American League. Vander Meer was one of the reasons why the Reds were almost unanimously picked tc win the ’| league pennant this ye He gave an already strong sta "Just that much more Strength. The Reds won the pennant, as predicted, but they got precious little hélp from Vander Meer. Something happened to his arm. It was a rarity when fie finished

This eliminated all further chance either team had of scoring in the
first period which ended with the count 1-0 in favor of Indianapolis. Hudson made the second Capital goal with an assist from Deacon and William Thomson, and the crowd had hardly settled back in its seats until Byron (Butch) MecDonald, and Joe Fisher, two wings, fooled the Syracuse .defense and fed the dise to Connie Brown, center, and the latter scored. In the last period, Les Douglas, center, took a pass from Archie Wilder and feited Beveridge, the Syracuse goalie, out of position to make the shot good. Deacon picked up a hard rebound and gave it to Hudson, who counted the last tally for the Capitals, and that was all there was .to the game except for Franks’ personal defeat at the end. An overwhelming majority of the crowd seemed well pleased if a little confused by it all. I overheard only one guy make adverse comments. You know the kind. For two bucks he wants Armageddon.
