With his farmer's spare frame, his mechanic's hands, his stubborn chin and his restless eyes, his quick opinions, his respect for makers and the things they make, his dual personality and his rebellion against orders, Henry Ford is more like most Americans than most Americans realize.

Chouteau's best efforts, however, will probably be registered in the 440, where he is defending champion. His marks in the quarter mile have twice this season broken Bill Kendall's old dual meet record of 4:50.5 and Chouteau is now exactly three seconds under this time. John Storrs of Dartmouth is likely to push him hardest, the Indians' star having turned in a 4:54.9 clocking again Pennsylvania on March 7. Bill Trubee of Princeton was unbeaten at this distance but has not been below 5:06. Warren Fisher of Cornell, Dave Barnes of Harvard, Arras, Peters...
