Bisons Are Leading International
 League by SIusginS

By the Associated Press.
 Thus far in the International League season, rival clubs have been able to display no pitching that could halt the battering attack of the Buf- falo Bisons.
 The fact that the Bisons lead the league by a wide margin with nine victories in 1c games can be attrib- uted almost entirely 10 their terrific slugging.
 In their first dozen games. the Bisons have collected IS3 hits and lI4 runs. an average Of i-@ runs and l4 hits per game. Only once has Buftalo's hit total failed to reach double figures.
 For the second consecutive day the Bisons scored I7 runs and collected o2 hits against Reading yesterday, winning T. 10 5. The day before the score was i7 to S. Yesterdays col lection included eight doubles, four triples and a home run by Helnie Batch. Thomas and Hawks each got four hits for the winners. LeYerette went the route for Buffalo. permit ting hits that caused little or no trouble in view Of the fact that Buff talo had d l0-2 lead as early as the fifth inning.
 Jersey City continued it's winning streak at Rochester's expense, to 3. Miller, Allen and Grant held the Redvinss to seven hits and Roches- ter threatened only in the sixth in nins when three runs were scored Three Rochester pitchers were touched for nine hits which Jersey I City punched at judicious intervals Bobby Yeach pounded out tuo doubles and drove in four runs for the Blackcats.

BY W. D. GRIFFITH Director of Ohio Relays

Since George Simpson in 1923 bought his first pair of track shoes, donned basketball togs and started junior high school meet. several changes have been wrought in his general running experience. Perhaps the greatest difference between the Simpson of high school days and the fastest human" is the way he hits the tape.
 Charlie Paddock, resembling Simpson in that a majority of his races were won from behind. had gathering burst of speed near the finish that eliminated in lunge at the tape. There were other sprint CTS, too who used a desperate leap in an attempt for victory in the last few yards.
 He Runs Through Now
 George Simpson was one of these for time, at least. He formerly put every ounce of power into the last stride or two at the finish line. Numerous races, however, showed the Ohio State star that there is a limit to all speed and that to at tempt to increase his speed at the last moment vas futile. AS a re- suit, the Simpson of today sets his goal at point some five or lo yards beyond the tape and runs through at full speed with little or no var iation in his form as he breasts the yarn.
 Keep your body we'll forward " Simpson advises the embryo sprint CT. "and increase this body angle, if possible. just as the finish is reached. This does not interfere with the form. but gives the added inch or 50 that often counts in a blanket finish"
 The Bounce Is Gone The Simpson stride also has been modified to a certain extent. Dur ing the early period Of his develop ment, there was more bounce to his step that tended to waste energy and interfere with his running form 1 Plenty Of competition has smoothed this out and, while his stride still ls uS AdIules IL 10 IilOlt pUI pOstl | and more efficient. Watching hm | in action is remindful Of frishten- ed rabbit that fattens itself to the ground in flight and relies or l spring-like legs 10 drive it forward
 There is no hesitancy from start Nto finish of q simpson race. With the sound Of the gun. there is ar explosive eruption that resolves 1t. self into d streak of rhythmic ac. ton that is sustained until the fn- | ish line is well behind.

Fencing Revival Seen
 For French SpOrtsmen

Paris, May , (UP)-Ihc typlcally aristocratic sport of fencing. decline Of which in Republican France has tempted the French army to abolish the practice altogether, may yet be saved from ignominious oblivion by an earnest petition now before the chamber of deputies inviting the government to make fencing tests obligatory in schools of higher edu- cation.
 Despite the shrinkare of rcsi- mental fencing masters since the war, due to the eAigencics of a re- duced peace-time army. the essen tial value of fencing as a physical exercise is deemed obvious enough to insure it's continuance in French sporting circles whose members seem for the moment more interest," ed in football and boxing.
 Actually. sTordplay among sports men and students in France is keen ly, it not widely practiced. The resolution offered the chamber Is based merely on the anxiety of It's authors at the growing indifference to the ancient sport in official realms.
 If fencing is made obligatory in the great French universities, an important step will have been taken to guarantee it's permanence in France. Enthusiastic sUordsmcn will always be found In the various sporting clubs Of the nation, regard less Of the frown or smile of official dom but the widespread knowledge Of the art could never result from such individual interest.
 The universities have long been criticised by French and foreigners alike for their lack Of interest and organization in student athletics. With the impetus Of governmental ! decree to give them a running start, 1 it is hoped by critics that the uni versailles will awaken to the possi- hilities Of organization in other sports, notably rugby, boxing, srim- ming and track and held sports
