1 n r, WVYNJ V r. IXIN r. rl Johnson, Michigan Star, iest All-Around Track Athlete of Day (By C. N. C.) Carl Johnson, Michigan's phenomen- al hurdler and jumper, has" been pro- nounced by Coach Farrell the best all- roundd track athlete in active competi- tion today, and one of the greatest in the history of sport. Johnson's performance in the 1919 Conference meet stamped him as one of the greatest cinder men of all time. and even greater things are expected of him next year, his last season of col- legiate competition. The Michigan star will captain Farrell's track team next spring in what should prove the most successful season of his career. Johnson was recognized as the most versatile college athlete this year as the result of his all-round work in 1918, but it was not until the final meet of the season that he displayed his real class. His feat of winning four firsts for an individual total of 20 points in the Big Ten championships proved the biggest sensation of the year. CORONA L. C. Smith Remington Underwood Hammond and Breaks Conference Records In the big meet at Chicago June 7, Johnson garnered more points single handed than dis Wisconsin, Ohio State, Missouri, Indiana, Iow a, Northwestern, and Wabash combined. It was John- son who shattered the only two Con- ference records that were broken, the Michigan athlete setting new marks in both the h.igh and broad jumps, in ad- dition to winning both hurdle events in fast time. Besides these four events Johnson can run the 100-yard dash in 9 4-5 sec- onds, tying the collegiate record for this event. This gives him five events in which he is an almost certain first in any college meet, if given an oppor- tunity to get his breath between events. Counted to Win Four Firsts While he is being counted on to win four firsts in each of his meets next spring, Johnson will devote especial attention to the running broad jump. Alvin Kraenzletn's collegiate record of 24 feet 4 1-2 inches is the mark which Coach Farrell's star is determ- ined to top. Johnson's jumping form this year, pronounced perfect bytrackiauthor- ities who saw him in action, indicates that with another season of competi- tion he will surpass Kraenzlein's mark by several inches. He expects to add a few pounds to his weight during the coming year, which should aid him materially in his effort to set a new world's broad jumping record. More Weight Needed A few more pounds would tend also to give the Michigan athlete greater stamina. The strain of running four or five events In one afternoon is great, especially in a championship meet where competition is keen. Everyone who has seen Johnson perform on the track has marveled at his ability to turn almost immediately . from one event to another, running each in rec- ord, or close to record time. His slender build has made his per- formances all the more remarkable. Withthe added poundage that another year will give him he should be in even better shape to face his final season of record smashing. Hest Performances Johnson's best performances in his five favorite events are as follows: high jump 6 feet 2 1-4 inches; broad ump 24 feet 1 inch; '120-yard high hurdles 15 2-5 seconds; 220-yard low hurdles 25 seconds; 100-yard dash 9 4-5 seconds. Johnny Garrels and Joe Horner are the only former Michigan track men whose all-round proficiency entitles them to be classed with Johnson. In comparing these men with the latter it 'honld be remembered that both Car- rels and Horner were allowed -four years of intercollegiate competition while Johnson so far has had but two. Next year, Johnson's third at Michi- gan, will " be his last. Record Compares Favorably Even now, with but two years of col- legiate competition behind him, John- son's record compares favorably with those of Garrels and Horner. It is true that Horner was proficient in a greater number of events than is John- son, but he failed to attain the top notch efficiency of the younger man in most of the events he entered. Horner set one all-round record dur- ing his four years at Michigan that will probably stand for all time. Horn- er won points for Michigan in nine different events and in several of these made near record performances. His indoor mark of 48 feet 3 1-2 inches with the shot is still the Waterman gymnasium record. Horner Captain's 5qua4d Horner was a member of the Mich-' igan track team in 1908, 1909, 1910 and 1911, captaining the squad his final season. Garrels preceded him by four years, graduating the year that Horn- er entered the University. Like Horn- er and Johnson, Garrels captained the Michigan team his last year, in 1907. Horner won points for Michigan in the shot put, discus, hammer, high jump, broad jump, pole vault, 100-yard dash, hurdles and as a member of various indoor relay teams. In one contest alone. The dual meet with Syracuse in 1910, Horner won points in six events. He counted a first in the discus; seconds in the 100, broad jump, hammer and shot; and a third in the high jump, for an 18-point total. Primarily Weight Man Horner was primarily a weight man, Showever, and in none of the other events did he approach record per- formances. His dash and hurdle rec- ords were all made indoors, his best time for the 100-yard dash in outdoor competition being 10 2-5 seconds. Horner was a wonderfully built ath- lete, but along far different lines than Johnson's. In striking contrast to the latter's lithe form Joe Horner resembl- ed a piano mover in build. Garrels was the most perfectly proportioned of the three. His anthropometric chart record of 99 has stood untouched in Waterman gymnasium since 1907. A perfectly formed man, more than six feet tall, he weighed 190 pounds at the time he set his hurdling records. It took another giant of a man, Bob Simpson of Missouri, to better Garrels mark in the high hurdles.
