Show Hoggan Shatters Record In Cross Country Event Tiger Distance Star Shows Fine Ability Ogden Ace Covers Distance in Remarkable Time; Thirty-nine Athletes Perform; Barker Sets Fast Pace, But Is Forced Out; Stone Captures Second Place By AL WARDEN Standard-Examiner Sports Editor JIM HOGGAN, favorite, captured the second annual Weber gymnasium cross-country run Tuesday, over a field of 39 middle distance runners. The Ogden High school ace came through with a marvelous performance and incidentally shat¬ters! the course record of 12 minutes 11 seconds established in 192s by Blaine Carruth of Ogden High. Dixon Kapple's latest sensation- covered the two and one-half mile gallop in 11 minutes 43 seconds, just 28 seconds better than the previous mark. Hoggan trailed Tom Barker, Uni¬versity of Utah runner, for more than one and a half miles before he decided to get out in front. At the one and one-half mile post Barker dropped out of the pic¬ture after setting a hot pace. His 1 work in the early stages undoubted-i agisted Hoggan in breaking the course record. Doxey Stone, team mate ot Hoggan, gave the winner a battle until the last 75 yards of the event. The sprint engineered by Hoggan at this Btage easily carried him to victor. He caroo down the stretch like a Paddock. SPRINGS SURPRISE Stone, a dark horse, finished about 20 yards back of Hoggan to finish in second place. He demon-strated his ability in this sport be- yond all question of doubt and looms as one of the promising racksters at Ogden High this spring. Percy Watkins of Bear River High was the third runner to fin¬ish. Hn nosed out Les Mayer of Ogden High by five yards and finished about 35 yards behind Stone. Anderson of Weber college was fifth. Bear River runners finish¬ed as a group in the next five places. Hinman, Green, Allen, Ashby and Garrett of Bear River finished in this order for sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth and tenth places. Penman of Weber High was the first "Warrior runner to cross the tape. He fipislied in eleventh place. The next five runners finished as follows: Danniger, Ogden; Kapp, Weber; Taylor, Weber; Moore, Og-den, and Thompson, Weber. Ogden placed three runners in the first five. Bear River had six men in the first 10, a remarkable performance. Louis Gladwell, ace of the We¬ber High runners, suffered cramps early in the race and was forced from the grind. FINE CROWD The race was pronounced one of unusual merit and was pleasing to a, large crowd that turned out to follow the men over the course, jMore than 2000 were on hahd at the finish line directly in front of the Weber gymnasium. "We are mighty pleased at the fine turn-out of runners for the second annual race," said F. C. Van Buren, managing director of. the gymnasium, today. "Next sea¬son we expect more than 50 run¬ners to compete for honors. We will extend invitations to all ama¬teur runners of Utah.'' Hoggan will be presented with a large silver loving cup for cap¬turing first honors. This was of¬fered by Smalley Brothers, local jewelers. Awards for a number of the other runners were offered also by merchants of Ogden. APRIL 19, 1929 Davis Captures Track Feature at Kaysville DAVIS high school trackers captured first place in a three-cornered meet with Weber and Ogden at Kaysville Thurs¬day by scoring 62 points. Ogden was second with 50 and Weber third with 32. Hoggan of Ogden high cap¬tured first place in both the mile and half-mile events with Doxey Stone second in each distance trot. In the half-mile Ogden made a clean sweep. Barker of Weber captured the century from a fast field in nice time. Stewart of Ogden was supe¬rior to the entire field in the pole vault. He did well over ten feet and looms as a new star for the 1929. APRIL 19, 1929 "Liberty is not the right of one, but all." NIGHT OF NIGHTS Now it has come. The night of all nights.
