No one disputed the claim. It was taken for granted that hockey was the speediest of all games, because of a belief that skaters travel faster than men afoot. After all these years, we are told we erred. Toronto's 'Sport College headed by Reg. Percival leaves few stones un- turned in the matter of athletic research, and in a letter to this cclumn, Percival declares against the theory that hockey is faster than, say, lacrosse. He writes: "I have read com- ments and seen estimates that state a hockey player travels from 40 miles per hour up to 110 miles per hour, "This is not true. We have rested and tinted many hockey players, including , the fastest in the N.H.L., and find that approximately 23 miles an hour is a maximum rate of speed reached. The speed reached by the average player is con- siderably lower than this. This rate of speed compares equally with the speed that can be reached in ordinary running. "A further interesting note is that the world's speed skat- ing records is 9.4 for 100 yards and the sprint record for run- ning is 9.3. Some people believe that hockey players start more quickly than do runners, but this has also been proved a fallacy. A runner afoot (such as a lacrosse player) can also stop and start again much more quickly and can make much sharper turns and changes of direction. "If you take measurement standards of speed and distance covered during a game as the criterion, it is impossible to claim that hockey is a faster game than lacrosse." AU of which we find interesting, and If the Sports College findings aro correct, then lacrosse is entirely welcome to take over our original line "The World's Fastest Game."
