 Time

Columbus, o.. Aug, s.--You read recently where Zeegers of Holland was forced to drop out of the Olympic steeplechase because his belt broke and his running trunks began to de- sert him.
 This recalls the experience of Glenn Kreider, Ohio State miller. who made Big Ten history during the past sea- son.
 Three years ago kreider. then a rookie, started in the half-mile against Indiana. Just after the start his belt broke. Kreider made 3 swoop down. ward and seized the retreating pants with his right hand. His one thought was 10 set oft the track and away from the crowd and this with all possible speed.
 kreider put on extra steam. The crowd realized his predicament and laughed. kreider put on still more steam. The crowd laughed all the harder.
 kreider came laundering down the stretch hoding his pants with one hand. He breasted the tape yards ahead Of his field and kept right on through the stadium gate and into the gymnasium without once break ing his stride.
 Half an hour later he learned he had set new record for the event and had qualified as regular.

 eral times forcing Johnston out of po- sition and compelling the errors large ly responsible for the defeat of Little Bill.
 Johnston was not up to his famous form and it was only asonally that his wonderful forehand shots carried their old sting. He seemed unable to compel Kinsey to take the offensive, his lack of speed and frequent lapses costing him the match.
 The first California victory of the day was scored by Miss Mary K. Browne when she took Miss Mayme Macdonald, national clay court cham pion, into camp in the woman's sin sles final, 60, S--1. Miss Browne's speedy driving and her smashing vol leying at the net heinz the cause of Miss MacDonalds downfall.
