Collum Won The 50-yard Dash

"Grandpa" Wilson, who for a long time has claimed to be the champion fat man foot racer of Tecumseh, has been beaten by an Ann Arbor man, Ad Collum, the well known proprietor of the Collum buffet on N. Main street.

Mr. Collum went to Tecumseh on a visit last week and while there left "Grandpa" Wilson far in the rear in a 50 yards dash. At first Wilson was not disposed to sprint with Collum, explaining that he had been suffering for some time with pains in his legs. Collum then took on Will Hicks and several others and beat them. Then, all of a sudden, "Grandpa" Wilson's pains disappeared. He apparently thought Collum was tired out after running three races, so he remarked: "I will just go you one race for fun." When the race was over the fun was mainly on Collum's side for "Grandpa" was not in it from start to finish. Collum now challenges any fat man racer in Ann Arbor to a 50 yards dash. All those who wish to compete will please notify Mr. Collum at once.
