BARRIE Local Runners Best in Orillia-Midland Relay. On Saturday afternoon, in spite of the unfavorable weather condi- tions, Neil MaBride s team of mud horses galloped through the rain and mud to victory in the Orillia- Midland running event. In one of the most exciting, relay races ever held in this district, teams from `Midland, Orillia and Barrie battled for the annual honour of holding the Finlayson Cup, already twice held by `Midland, over the thirty-two and a half miles from Orillia to Midland. Each team, consisting of 15 runners, each go- ing two and two-tenth miles. gam'ely fought it out, all three tak. ing a share of the lead. It was al- most any one s race till Gordon Sarjeant crossed the line. in front of the Y.M.tC.A. in Midland a bare 1'50 yards ahead of the Midland man. -"|-3- 1- H... 1nuNa+ no-ovnannn `This is the largest aggregation of runners Barrie has ever sent into a race and it called out many who are new to the game. Every one of the team showed the best of judgment and grit, especially the early runners when it looked as if the race was hopelessly lost. All performed well over a course not to be equalled in this county for hills, and all daeserve an equal share in the glory, although one or two of the juniors really excelled themselves. Ken Houghton, run- ning his second race, the rst be- ing the Barrie-Orillia relay last week, showed wonderful form and should help bring many honours to * Barrie. Rufus '0rd also did a good job over his leg of the course, while to `Wally Hedger, who ran _the 14th lap, goes the` credit of the fastest time for any lap by any team, nosing` out both his oppo- nents by better than fteen sec- ondls.

Art McLean tore after the leaders, but it remained: for Ken. Houghton to make the `first denite gain, John Morrison con- tinued the `good work. In the sixth leg Hornsby of Midland and Mur- ray of Orillia were out so hard for 4 each other s scalp that they made a wrong turn letting Jack Percy of the home team gain an easy rst place. This he was unable to hold but nished third well up. Ord M galloped well, holding what ground he had. -Capt. Neil` McBride took for himself the worst stretch` of all. It would have taken a moun- tain goat to make time on that hill. Barrie was still third -and some- what back when Coulter and Wel- dron had: done their two-mile trick. `The parade really started when Donnelly, the rst of the old war horse brigade, hopping along with a stride like Tom Longboat of old, caught the Orillia man and was closing in fast on the Midland run- ner. -Bill Marks completed the at- tack by going out in front and: n- ishing with a nice lead. It only remained for Smith, Hedger and Sarjeant to complete the march and bring the silverware home to Barrie. l1_--.'l:.|. 2.. Jinn J-A G-`kn Davvin Rnvc Barrie.
