This afternoon at three o'clock, the man who invented the sour kraut eating and balogna slicing contest will find himself no longer a record holder. At that hour the most recent marathon of them all, the youngest offspring of a race long the victim of the inbreeding of defectives will commence within earshot of the Square.
