 WATCHING BOSTON MARATHON RACE |Favorites Have Minds on
 Los Angeles Games Be-

 De Mar, Hennigan Popu.
 lar Choice

Hopkinton, Mass, April 19 - (UP) - The crack of the start CTS gun, will start 259 steel-
 limbed long distance runners on the grueling Boston marathon, which will place one American on the United States Olympic team. Crowds estimated at over 300,- 900 were converging upon Boston from all parts of the state to wit ness the finish of this most import ant event on the Patriots day pro- gram.
 Ampiticus Four of the six marathoners who carried the stars and stripes at Amsterdam in 1928 were hope full of being the first American to breast the tape at the old, Brick Boston A. A. clubhouse, thereby winning the right to carry again the U. S. shield at the Los Angeles games.
 Foreign runners likewise were prepared to pound over the wind ing hill-studded 26 miles and 385 yards to the clubhouse, confident that excellent showings would enable them to carry their na- tional colors in California.
 The United States Olympic com mittee has decided that the first American will become automatic ally one of the four members of the marathon team to compete at Los Angeles. Finland's committee has made similar decision re- garding several Finnish entries, and Canada, Germany and Den mark may do likewise. Other American marathoners will be chosen in three sectional try-outs. Back Again
 The four Americans who com peted at Amsterdam are Clarence De Mar, 43, instructor at Keene, N. H., Normal school, winner of the Boston event seven times; Jimmy Henigan of Medford, 40, defending champion in this race, and two 39-year-old New Workers, Albert Nicholson and Harvey Prick.
 William Agee of Baltimore, Ma tional A. A. U. champion, is the only outstanding American long ulSIducS TulHcT IlOt COAApStAhS. AAO will qualify for the Olympics in the Baltimore run.
 Four previous winners of the event are in the field: De Mar, Henigan. Bill Kennedy, Portches- ter bricklayer, who won in 1917. and Carl Linder of Quincy, 1919 winner. Kennedy and Linder are not conceded much chance this time, but De Mar and Henigan are among the favorites.
 Watch De Bruya Finland has g. strong group of trained runners. Willie Ritola, 37, is outstanding. He never won the Boston race, but he took the 5000 meter Olympic title at Amsterdam. Karl Koski and Willie Kyronen also are formidable Finnish entries.
 Canada has a large group. Ger many's outstanding challenger is Paul De bruyn, now living in New York he is picked by many experts to win, finders Anderson hopes to make the Danish team by his show ing.

VAN DUzER BEGINS
SAFETY CAMPAIGN
Opens Drive Against Care
IeSSnesS of Motorists
and Pedestrians.

With more traffic accidents during the
first 10 months of the year than in all
of 1881. Traffic Director William A. Van
Duzer today began campaign against
careleSSneSs on the part OF motorists
and pedestrians.
A study of recent accidents has
shown, the traffic director declared.
that drivers of motor vehicles must
learn to approach intersections with
their machines under control, to drive
more carefully at night and to reduce
their speed when weather conditions are
not normal" They also should learn
to drive more cautiously alongside of
parked automobiles, where persons are
likely to walk or run out between the
parked cars" he added
As for the pedestrians, they should
train themselves, Van Duzer said, Ito
look in both directions before crossing
the street and t ocross at intersections,
where they have legal right of way
Those compelled to walk on roads
without sidewalks in outlying sections,
he said. should take the left side of the
thoroughfare. SO as to have clear view
of approaching traffic.
"Our job" Van Duzer pointed out. sis
to educate both motorists and pedes-
TRANS IN the dangers of carelessness."
Thus far this year, Van Duzer's
analysis disclosed, between los and Ito
persons have lost their lives in traffic
accidents, whereas only los deaths &C.
CURED in all of last year.
A dozen persons were killed in Oc-
tober, one more during the same month
of 1881 and twice as many in the corre-
spending period of 1880, the study
showed. Other points brought out by
the analysis follow:
Five of the October fatalities &C.
CURED at intersections, the others be-
TWEEN intersections, but none at con-
trolled intersections. Two of the acct
dent victims were struck while walking
on roads without sidewalks, one in the
daytime and the other at night. but
both on the right-hand side of the
thoroughfare Four Of the other victims
also were pedestrians, while the remain
ing six lost their lives in collisions"
