Remembered American sprinter Taylor and his race strategy
A U S track star from the American team at the Olympic Games in England last July and August ran the 400 meter and relay events. Climate limited his form though he was once famed as the fastest quarter miler, never matching Tong’s 47 second record. He held intercollegiate marks of 49 1 5 seconds in 1904 and 48 4 6 in 1907, won the 1907 national quarter mile title, and planned to surge after laying off pace, a tactic that cost him several races.
