IF COACHES ARE RIGHT THEN PAAVO NURMI
IS A PADDOCK, MOLEHMAINEN, MEL SHEPPARD
AND ALFRED SHRUBB, SAYS EASTERN WRITER
MENTORS LOOK AT GREAT FINN AND OPINIONS VARY
AS TO WHOM HE RESEMBLES, SAYS WALTER
CAMP—PAYS CUDDEBACK TRIBUTE.
NEW YORK, Jan.—When Ed Leader came from Washing
ton and after putting Yale crews on the map in the short distance
race, he took his Blue crew up to New London and left Harvard
astern, the writer listened to thecomment of a half dozen captains
and coaches of earlier winning Yale and Harvard crews who had as
sembled at the race. Each gave as his independent ciew that the
j Leader stroke was the one his own winning crew had rowed!
Now Paavo Nurmi, the great Finnish runner, is here and under
j the observation of dozens of successful track coaches. And it is not
strange that one coach compares
him to Mel Sheppard, and another
to Charley Paddock, and another
I to Kolehmainen, and another to
Alfred Shrubb, and so on—all-star
runners.
In rowing, every coach for fifty
years has been trying to get a stroke
that on the recovery does not check
the forward progress of the boat;
and in running every coach has
been doing his best to make the
body and arms aid rather than re
tard the speed of liis pupil. And
so when their boat wins they be
lieve their picture is right, and ten
years later they see another boat
slipping along through the water
and coming into a commanding lead
they recognize the old picture even
though the mists of time have blund
ered their recollections a bit, and
when a superlative runner like
Nurmi appears before the track ex
perts, they are reminded of other
winners, and perhaps with accur
acy.
Nothing succeeds like success, and
we can all see Nurmi on the night
of January 6 and make our own pic- j
tures and call him a Sheppard or a
Paddock or a Shrubb—by the way
! why not a Leu Myers or a W. G.
I George or a Workman?
For Example.
j Psychiartrists make their tests
j often times by suggesting a word

'reaction by listing the words that
; the “stimulus” word causes to pop
j into his mind, might make a most

ciple in sport. For instance, if one
says, “baseball,” allowing three an
swers to each test. Here are some
