YALE RUNNER TO
BE IN marathon
Olympic Committee Allows
Smith in Distance Races

S. S. President Roosevelt. en-
Route TO Amsterdam, July IS Up
Macauley Smith, Yale distance run
ner, has Joined Lloyd Hahn and Joie
Ray in the ranks of those who will
attempt to gain two victories for
Uncle Sam in the Olympic track and
field championships at Amsterdam.
The young cross county ace has
been permitted by the Olympic COM
mittee to enter both the 5000 and
10000 metre runs at Am sterdam.
Smith amazed track experts dur
ing the eastern sectional trials in
the Yankee Stadium, New York,
when he beat Leo Lermond. Boston
A. A. flier in the 5000 meters. Ler-
mond gained revenge. however, in
the finals at Cambridge when he led
home the field in the same event
with Smith second. The Yale star
feels that he has better chance
of winning the 10000 meters a.
Amsterdam than the 5000 despite
the fact that in the longer run he
will meet such rivals as Paavo Muir
mi and Willie Ritola. the Finn, and
Joie Ray and Johnny Romig. his
american teammates.
The decision that put Smith in
both of the longer flat races was the
one change the Olympic committee
made in the individual selections
announced before the team left for
Europe. The final entry list was
radioed to Amsterdam last night
after other suggested changes in the
original selections had been looked
upon with disfavor by the athletes
themselves.
Before the final entries were
transmitted to Amsterdam, the
coaches suggested shifts which
would have put Henry Russell,
former Cornell Splinter. in the 200
meter dash instead Of the 100 me-
ter and Henry Cumming. the New
ark A. c. star, in the 100 instead Of
the 200. There also was discussion
as to the advisability OF placing
Eric krenz, Stanford field event star,
in the discus as well as in the shot
put. krenZ was off form in the
discus during the finals but when In
shape he ranks up among the best
in the United States. Another move
