Biography
German athlete, nicknamed "Aute," who competed at the 1908 Summer Olympics in London as a member of the silver medal-winning German medley relay team. He was the first runner of the four-man squad, running 200 metres and followed by Hans Eicke, Otto Trieloff, and Hanns Braun. The team dominated the first round, defeating the Dutch team easily with a time of 3:43.2. In the final, though, the Germans could not match the American team. He died in Hamburg on 4 April 1932, aged 44.
