He also ran the leadoff or quarter-mile leg in Vtllanova's rec- ord-smashing triumph in the sprint medley relay at the National Indoor Championships last February In Madison Square Garden. HOLMES GONE With only John Holmes departed, two other members of the Wildcats' one-mile east also figured in teat winters two major victories—John FurKnger and Joe McCreary. Irish, a senior who has been clocked in 8:088 outdoors for 109 yards, ran the century kg In ViUanova's 1949 victory in the AAX7 indoor sprint medley. Bob Cunjac and Pete Simigan, who. with James Patrick Reardon, round out ViUanova's current mile ensemble, ran with PurUnger on the * team that won its section of the freshman mile race in the 194* Perm Relays. Simigan. a skinny yputh with a wild, tailing style of wlndmilllng his arms while pumping his legs, also is listed with Larry Paturso and Arthur Klepper as an alternate on the two-mile team.

Syracuse and Penn State in establishing an Inquirer meet and AATJ district record of 7:53.8. but Elliott plans to shift his lineup this season. C 1 1 IAN AVAILABLE Two other members of that vic- torious 1950 foursome still are in school—Billy Curran, the 1940 Na- tional Junior (and mterseholasUc) champion from Bayonne, N . J . and George Thompson, 1947 U. 8. junior 5000- meter titlist from New Ro- cheile. N. Y.

Reardon. a 48- aecond quarter-miler who is incxeas- Ing his distance Once there was an Irishman at Villanova. Coaun Clancy, the giant weight-slinger from Gal way; then there were two, Clancy and James Patrick Reardon. the runner, and now. of course, there are three, Clancy, Reardon and Johnny Joe Barry.

Clancy joins them in singing th# song the late John MeCormiek made famous about the Valley of She* na Man, or the Valley of Beau- tiful Women. lAHtEP ON FARMS Reardon and Barry grew up as runners. They were raised on farms, and the chief product of their Tip- perarv country is horseflesh—Irish jumpers. Beautiful animals." Reardon ex- pounds, "with enormous fetlocks. After the Second Crusade, they brought Arabians back to Ireland and then crossed them with Irish draft horses. We call our Jumpers Orebe." So Reardon and Barry learned how to run by chasing Irish jumpers, and herding them into barnyards and fields. It must have been good training, although the constant run- ning on turf and grass left them with hide experience on cinders and absolutely none on boards until they eame to the D. S. But by way of preparation for his second voyage across the Atlantic— he was four when his parents moved back to Bajhncurry from Jo lie t, HI. —Barry biased his name around the footracing world in the summer of 1949 THIRD FASTEST Mai In June he ran the third fastest mile recorded tha* year. 4:08.8, and a month later, at Dublin, he de- feated the TJ. S. champion, little John Twomey. Illinois. Later he was docked in 3 MA for 1500 meters. 8:17 for 3000 and 13:58.2 for three miles—which made him the Irish champion and record-holder at vir- tually every distance from 440 yards vpward. Barry never had competed out- doors, but on the flat floor of the Rational Guard Armory at Wash- ington, D. C, he roared from behind In the last seven yards to beat the Penn AC'S Horace Aahenfelter In the Acacia Two-Mile Run—a fea- ture of The Evening Star Games, Incidentally, in which he will seek another victory next Saturday eve- ning. It remained for The Inquirer fes- tival to provide Johnny Joe with his irat taste of banked-board competi- tion. Six days after his two-mile effort at the Nation's capital, he chased Wilt to a new district record •f 4:11.8 and himself reeled off the second fastest eight, furlongs ever docked indoors here, 4:12 J. • A D HIS TROUBLES But Johnny Joe had his troubles —constant toothaches. Even the might he beat Aahenfelter'by five yards in 4 11 5 for the National AATJ championship last February his turns bled, and bed had no solid food in three weeks. By March, however, the infected teeth had been removed, and early In that month he performed a feat with few, if any, precedents.
