AMATEURS SMASH ONE
MILE WORLD RECORD
Los Angeles High School Quartet
Beats U. S. C. Props in
Relay Contest

One world record and a school record
were broken yesterday afternoon at
the invitation track meet held on the
u. S. c. grounds under the direction of
Dean Cromwell and the sanction of
the A. A. U. Only three events were
contested, so the showing is all the
more remarkable. Los Angeles and
Hollywood high schools and u. S. Z.
preps were invited to join in the con-
tests, but Hollywood failed to show up,
so the contests were limited to the
other two institutions.
The school record for U. S. c. at 44O
yards was set at 52:03 by Throop with
Wallace second and Martin third. The
former record was 53:0l. held by Par
sons.
The world record that was smashed
was in the mile relay race, open to all
high schools and the u. S. C. preps.
Quartets from l.. A. high and U. S.
c. preps contested, the former school
winning in 3:27:01. This time sets a
new interscholastic record for the dis
tance under the conditions of the race
yesterday. The former record was
$3.50 1-5, held by the high school of
manual training, Brooklyn. Dawson,
Clark, Simpson and Mcclure formed
the winning quartet

That winning streak of the Villagers,
which began with the opening of the
season and has continued almost un-
broken ever since was continued yes
terday in the third game of the series
with San Francisco, the suburban kids
winning in a tight fit by the score of
to g. It required an even dozen
innings for them to come from behind
and overcome the early lead taken by
the Seals. but the game boogers ac-
complished the trick.
After the Seals had taken a to 0
lead in the third, the Vernon boys
seemed willing enough to let it go at
that, but when the Seals came back
in the sixth and added another. Hogan
began to think it time for his outfit
to get busy and they did so. They put
over two runs in their half of the
sixth and Immediately shut down on
the Seals run-getting while they were
busy tieing the score and then win
ming.
The Seals scored twice in the third,
Griffin went out. Brashear to Fisher.

plate. Fisher to Brown. Shaw scored

Fisher muffing the throw. Witt walked,
forcing Mundorff home. Another run
was scored in the sixth. Home Run
Bodie putting the ball high over the
centerfield fence. This was enough for
Vernon's patience and they put a
stop to 1t.
In their half of the sixth the Villag-
ers mt over couple MelchOir
dropped an easy fly sent his way by
Rurrell. who was forced at second by
Nartinle. Coy was thrown out at
first and then Roy Brashear doubled
and sent Martinke scampering over
the nan. Lindsay singled to left, scor-
ing Rrashear. This was not enough. so
I'm the ninth the cutups added another
and tied the score. Stovall was sent
in to bat for Brown and was hit.
Kitty Brashear was sent in to bat Tor
Schafer and was passed. Carlisle sac
rificed both men a base. Burrell was
an infeld out. Stovall tieing the score.
Two long innings rolled by before
the Villagers could connect win tne
winning run, but they resolutely held
tbe Seals in check In the twelfth,
the winning tally was scored when
only one man was down. Burrell was
safe on Shaw's error. Martinke sacri-
feed and Roy Brashear put Burrel on
third with a single to left. Coy singled
10 left and Burrell tailed, ending the
game.
The same teams play today, but at
Vernon. instead of at the Chutes,
Hit probably will pitch for Vernon,
although Hensling is about due to take
another whirl at the visitors.

Jeffries speed was a trifle better than

to be anything like his former self
Bag punching and handball followed.
Fast as Jeffries appeared, Manager
Berger thought the undefeated chan-
pion was a bit off in his work.
Hes worried" said Berger, "and l
know his heart wasn't in anything he
did this afternoon. 1t may have seemed
to the casual onlooker that he showed
plenty of ginger and life, but l know
him too we'll"
Jeffries is much worried over the
impending operation on his wife, Mrs.
Jeffries, accompanied by Dick Adams,
left tonight for Oakland, where she Is
to go under the surgeons knife Satur-
