Burn will leave the mark tonight with Miller and the other short distance men. Whether Murchison will run or not was still doubtful late yesterday, according to B. A. A. officials. However, prominent among the field of luminaries besides Miller and Burns, are Clark, Intercollegiate champion while at Johns Hopkins, Morton, the Yale captain, who has once defeated Miller, and once been defeated by him; Bowman, the erstwhile Syracuse flash; Hussey, the Boston College Freshman who has been defeated twice by Miller in the past week, but who has gained international fame by his speedy spurts; perhaps Murchison, most brilliant...
...Millrose A. A. games. Milland and Burns will try their luck against the collection of the world's greatest sprinters. Coach Farrell says of Miller's performance in New York Thursday night against a fair representation of these stars, "There was no daylight to be seen between Miller and Murchison at the finish of the dash at Madison Square Garden Thursday night.

He had beaten Houben, who is the visiting German dash man, and Hussey, the youthful performer from Boston College at the K. of C. meet last Saturday. He finished ahead of both these men tonight, but Murchison was too good, as his time of four and three-fifths seconds indicates. He was unable, however, to better the world's record of four and two-fifths seconds established by W. D. Eaton, an old Amherst runner...
...yard affair the order was, the same as that of the shorter distance, except that Houben and Hussey changed places again. Miller once more placed second to Murchison, who this time came within one-tenth of a second of the world's best mark. His time was six and three-tenths seconds...
