EXPECTS
To DEFEAT
HELFFR|CH
Finn Faces Alan in His Favor
ite Distance Of One
half Mile
BY DAVIS j. WALSH.

NEW YORK, May 26. Those
who would weep at a wedding and
dance at a wake are going to. the
Yankee stadium tonight with the
idea of cheering what is supposed
to be the impending defeat of q
good sportsman and great competi'
tor.
They appIauded Paavo Nurmi in
victory; they will fairly revel in
hts defeat, IL such ii Is to he. The
public has become dyspeptic on the
diet OF Paavo's successes and only
a failure will placate its palate.
In his farewell race in Asii4rica,
Nurmi will step out with Alan
Helffrich at the latter's favOEite
distance the half mile, and expert
opinion is almost in entire accord
with the idea that the Finn has
bitten off too much. II he loses,
IL will be his first real defeat in
g. scratch race since 1920.
The writer doesn't believe he
Will lose. Provided Paavo is right.
the man doesn't live who can lead
him to the tape ftcm any dis
tance from half mile to ten miles.
It is a fact, however, thet NurIni
seemed far from his best when he
in an attempt upon his own world s
record for the mile. According to
witnesses, he appeared worn and
underweight from his N.long siege
of record breaking on American
tracks.
The worlds record of ] :52 1-5, held
these many years py Ted Meredith,
is supposed to be on the verge OF
eclipse. Again, the writer dissents.
Nurmi has announced that he
will run his first quarter in fifty
four seconds and his second in
fifty-six which would bring him
home in 1850. / do not believe this
will be necessary, even 1T the Finn
is capable of such a performance
at this time, which I don't be-
lieve. -
A good guess at Nurml's time to.
night would be fifty-five seconds
for the first quarter and So for the
last, or about 1853 for the full dis
tance. 1t will be ample, sufficient
and enough for Helffrich.
The American has never beaten
1854 in competition, ana although
he is running better than ever be.
fore, it is doubtful whether he has
the punch to defeat Nurmi, pro.
vided the latter is anything like
himself
Helffrich expects to go to the
pace at the sound Of the gun, run
a particularly fast first quarter
and try to last to the wire. Nurmi
hopes to do a lot of running in
the quarter mile Immediately fol.
lowing the first 800 yards and try
for a lead that would enable him
to stand off Helffrich's expected
rush in the stretch.
No matter what happens. it will
be the race of the generation.

Shanghai, June (AP)-Foreign forces patrolling Shanghai streets fianked by boarded store fronts to- day were confronted with posters reading: "Assassinate foreign police" and "assassinate foreigners connected with law courts
 Among the documents seized by police in raids on Shanghai univer- sty was a letter from a Chinese in Berlin 10 a professor at the college saying 'It has been decided that students of three countries, China. Germany and Russia, will start an organization which will unite the na- tions of the world in the cause Of the revolutionary party
 The letter was signed Yu Hankao, "Yahu Kant street. 52, Berlin,' and was mained from Charlottenberg, April 5, and received here on May Is by Professor Kiang Szsung,
 The letter reveals efforts of Chinese in other countries to make the Kuomintang-the Chinese party, which is charged with responsibility for melting the present trouble-an international organization with branches in Germany. Russia and l France.
 Other documents seized reveal the Kuonintang party had an active hand in the recent labor troubles which have resulted from strikes by Chinese employed in Japanese owned spinning mills near Shang- hai. The Kuomintang supplied funds for the strike propaganda. Communications to distant points in China reveal the scope of the Kuomintang activity.
 The letter received from Germany says in part:
 The Headquarters of the Kuomin- tang party in Germany and France are having struggles with anti i kuomintang elements and are try ! ing 10 overcome them. Several members have been dismissed. They have applied (for redress) to the central committee. but will be | driven out.

Because a number of these farms will be in Montana, working agreement has been made with the Montana State college extension service 10 use them as a basis for educational work and for the pur- pose of distributing over the coun- try the valuable information which will develop in the experiments.
 One of the essential points in the system is that each tenant who en- ters upon a farm does so in the expectation of buying the place at some time in the future. and at the price named in his original tenancy contract.
 Hackers of the Fairway Farms rorporation believe that successful results from their experiment swill open a new era of land settlement in the northwest, with landlord tenant relations established on a sound economic basis; investors will be certain Of a fair return on in- vested capital, while tenants will be assured of farm ownership with payments extended over a period of years, and also assured Of the highest possible chance of success through intelligent advice and d. rection from experts employed hy the landlord.
