Ah, ha, do we smell another
feud?
Witness this letter from Don
Tartncr who has something to do
with K-Statc's athletic publicity,
to John Bentlcy of the Journal:
"John: You may be pleased to
know that you weren't 'caught
offside' as per your column yes
terday (Sunday).
"Mr. Watson of Michigan has
never thrown the shot 54 feet,
1J4 inches as Miss Bierbower
would have him do. I think his
best mark is 52-9 or thereabouts.
"The 'Gang's (Hackney's) 54
feet, 1 inches at the Colorado
Relays is the best push in the
world this season. Saturday, here,
he'll be out to beat Sam'l Francis'
mark of 52, 11 '2 inches which is
the track and triangular mark.
DAN PARTNER."
That letter we attributed to
Mr. Partner's intense partisan
ship, and also to the fact that he
must not have read such papers
as the Chicago Tribune, New York
Herald-Tribune, etc., on April 23
and after.
Here's a part from the Chicago
Trib. April 23 we're mailing to
him:
"Capt. Bill Watson established
new meet jecordi in the shot and
discus today as Michigan defeated
Illinois in track 88 to 38.
"The Michigan star threw the
hot 54 feet 1 34 inches to exceed
his own meet record of 50 feet
made here two years ago "
ll There it is. Watson got 54-1
for' the "best push in the world
this season, and not 54-1 as a
typographical error In this column
read. So Willie, and not Elmer, is
out in front by a nose or of
an inch on the end of one.
