AMERICANS MAKE SPLENDID MARKS
Great Preparations Under Way for Opening Olympic
 Games on Sunday.

Antwerp, Belgium, Aug. 13.-Great preparations are being made by the Americans for Sunday morning when the games will officially be started with trials in the javelin, 100 and 300 meter fiat and the 400 meter hurdles. The Americans have been training in the Stadium for the opening.
 Just to celebrate their last day of preparation, the weight men, Mo Grath, Ryan and Mcdonald, did some weight throwing. It was their theory that the record of 34 feet inches for the 56 pound weight, made by V. Des- nrarteau, a Cana dian policeman, in 1904 at St. Louis, had stood long enough on the books, and this trip it was bound to be shunted into oblivion. In order to give warning as to what will happen this old rk the three Whales sallied forth, and when they were through with their assault it was plain enough that the old mark is doomed.
 McGrath led in the practice with a pitch of 3S feet inches, while Pat Mcdonald who is yet suffering from the effects of an injured thumb, was close up with 3S feet 4 inches, and Ryan's throw taped s7 feet Il inches Ryan and McGrath took a fling out o1 the Is pound hammer, but no records were made.

DODGERS FINALLY LOSE
 LEAD IN LEAGUE RACE

After hanging to their place at the top of the National League heap for nearly two months, the Dodgers lost their clutch yesterday and dropped into second place as a result of their defeat at the hands of the Cubs. The Reds jumped to the top of the first division through their victory over the Braves. The Dodgers now are eight points below the Reds and but 1T points above the onrushing Giants.
 As the Dodgers play with the Giants today and tomorrow at the Polo Grounds, they will have to do some superior work in all departments if they are to hold second place. The Dodgers reserved all their poor work for the home field, their perform ances on the road having been excel lent.
 Although the Dodgers started the season with what looked to be the best pitching staff in the League, it is now in poor working order. This ac- rounts for the manner in which the F1aubuSh team has been slipping back.
