500 SCHOOLBOYS VIE
IN u. S. TITLE MEET
Annual Cinder Affair at Stagg
Field May Turn Up Several
Olympic Prospects.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, June 4-Nearly 500 prep
~ school track and field athletes
came to Stagg Field at the Uni
versity of Chicago today to run, Jump
and heave for national championships
and to attempt to qualify as Olympic
team possibilities.
There was no advance favOrlte for
the national team title, but previous
performances of the contestants indl-
Gated a day Of record breaking, with
the possibility that few prospects for
Uncle Sans Olympic team might be
produced. The field in the 100 and
220 yard dashes included a pair OF
oungsters-Jimmy Owen of Maple
wood, Mo, and Randall Hermann of
Oak Park High, Chicago-each of whom
has run the distance in better than
the National Prep record. and the COM
petition in the other events appeared
just as good.
For the first time since the meet was
inaugurated by A. A. Stagg, % years
ago, it was a one-day affair, with the
trials in the dashes, hurdles and field
events scheduled for the morning with
the finals following after lunch. And
in spite Of financial conditions. Stagg
had arranged that no admittance fee
be charged.
Last years title was won by Maine
Township High of Des PLANES, Ill, but
any one of a dozen teams was accorded
chance today. Fort Collins, Colo,
the only team to win the champion
ship three times, was back with 20
man squad.

with their performances in the 1929
games at Amsterdam, but the former
has since taken possession of the world
record Of 144 for the ll0-meter hurdles

HISTORIC FIGHT TRAIN

~ with sealed orders been operated

Tomorrow morning at 9 O'Clock,
Frank L. jenkins, passenger traffic
manager of the Southern Railway Sys-
TEN, whose hobby next to golf is mys-
terry stories, will operate mystery train
from the Union Station somewhere
South To date no one but jenkins
knows its destination. but over 1000
persons, either through curiosity or a
desire to get the promised old-time
barbecue. have purchased tickets, and
it may be necessary after all to run
more than one train.
The idea originated through a dis
cussion of the -Kilrain fight in
the late eighties, which was held at
Richburg. Miss.
Fighters we're being chased from pill
lar to post by the State authorities, so
the Southern Railway was asked to
furnish train for an unknown desti-
nation. and 1t was not until after the
fight was held that the State troopers
learned Of the location, and days later
before Sullivan and Kilrain were re-
turned to Mississippi for trial
Vice President E. R. Oliver, in charge
of traffic, stated during the conversa-
ton that it wouldn't be possible to run
a train in this age to such an event
without the world at large knowing all
about it, and tomorrow sporting event
is the result of wager And having
bet, jenkins has refused to give the
destination Of the train even to his
superior. So either to protect his wager
or to enjoy the barbecue Vice President
Oliver will be among those all dressed
up and going some place"

LACROSSE SERIES
PLANS Up IN AIR
Special Meeting Is Called
Following Withdrawal of
Army and Navy.
MEETING was tn he held 1

A MEETING was to be held in
~ New York late this afternoon
~ to decide what is to be done
about the Olympic lacrosse
play-off series, which has been thrown
very much up in the air by the with
drawal of the West Point and Naval
Academy teams this week.
When the schedule was first drawn
up, the cards for the opening twin bills
in New York and Baltimore were as
follows:
New York-Army VS.. Indians, Navy
VS.. Rutgers.
Baltimore VS.. st. Johns,
Maryland VS.. Mount Washington.
When Army declared itself out on
Monday, Crescent A. C. of Huntington,
Long Island, was substituted, but when
Navy announced yesterday that 1t was
forced to withdraw, the plans of the
Olympic Lacrosse Committee were SO
completely upset as to cause Charles
OrnStein, chairman, to call q special
confab.
Washington was picked for the semi
finals June l8 and either Baltimore or
New York for final on June 25, but it
is possible these plans may be re-
| vamped.
1t has been suggested by some that
the series now be limited to the four
Maryland teams slated to play in Bal
timore next Saturday and that all the
games be played in the Monumental
City or to let the twin bill there be
followed by the final in Washington.
However, it may be that Cornell will
supplant Navy and the New York
games staged.
With Army and Navy out it Is be-
lieved that the games in New York
would be a financial flop instead Of
helping to get money to defray the ex-
penses of the series winner to the
games in Los Angeles.
