centuries ago that it may have been only a myth, a soldier of Greece is said to have run some 25 miles with news of the battle of Marath- on.

Sunday, over a tortuous course through Paris and its environs, 50 or more modern, young athletes will fnish-for the time being at least-what that ancient Greek started.

Six of America's bost long-distan- ce runners and two Canadians make up the north Americans that will carry the starry shield of the U. B. A. and Maple Leaf in- the marathon run that features this,

"He's the most peculiar-horse ever l trained. Easy to train, too. Gentle in the stable; rather quiet- llke and thoughtful a good bit oi the time. But what's going m, be. hind those big brovm eyes, Lord only knows. ~ "ln the morning trials he'll do iliiYi-liilli; We ask him to. He eats all the time. He lovcs Earl Sande. who rides him best.

"But when he gets the colors up and starts for the post-nobody knows what he's going to do." Mad Hatter has done some pretty big things in its equine wny. its winnings fall just u bit short of $200,000. They could have been twice that sum had it always chos- en to win.

The horse in 8 years old, sound, can carry big weight (although it is beginning to feel its age a little in this . spent), has started in 91 racce and won more than a third of them, including 18 important stakes, this year's Suburban l-iandi. cap ‘among them. But Mad llatter

"When he leaves my hands," says Hildrctb, who once bought Mod Hatter from Major Belmont and sold it to Harry F. Sinclair, whose horses he now trains, "all l can. do ls pray. Souiutinrca he stands up there like a statue: sometimes he's mean and bites the other horses.

"Mars Cnssldy ( the veteran starter) puts him on the outside. Saves trouble when lthe horse starts kicking up.

"Sometimes he wants to run out nn. front and sometimes he wants to run behind, and sometimes he just naturally don't want to run at all, and on those occasions even Earl Sande calffrget him up. "He's a puzzle. You can't force Mad Hatter. Sandra's beat at humor- ing him. We know he likes a hard, fast track and that he resents punishment and that when he's un- usually quiet ‘the day before a race he is goirig to run well.
