To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Just once, indeed, by his splendid work with the fifty-six, he temporarily regained the lead, but Carpenter in turn defeated him in the broad jump and the mile, and finally finished a winner by a hundred points, while I was another hun- dred behind Long. I have called the competition a noteworthy one in some respects. And this is perfectly true. In the first place, it was remarkable as a con- test; I cannot recall another all-around where three men finished such a slight distance apart, THE ALL...-AROUND CHAMPIONSHIP 121 and where the winner was actually in doubt until the very last event of all. In the second place, and much more remarkable, k was the good scoring. Carpenter made 5850 points; Long 5756; I made 5645, and Brigham 5409. I can recall very few all-arounds, sectional or na- tional, where four competitors made such even scores of such high average quality. Some of the individual performances, too, were remarkably good. Carpenter's 37 feet and 11 inches in the shot was first-class for an all- around competition; Long and I tied at 5 feet 7| in the high jump ; Long threw 116 feet 10 with the hammer, and 27 feet 11 with the fifty-six.
