There were several upsets with the breaking of tMo world rec ords, equaliing of one, and lower ing of five Olympic records. Per- haps the greatest was the failure of the vests outstanding sprin- ters to live up 10 earlier perform ances.
 The east won the most places on the squad of 68 men, contributing 25. men, the west 21, the middle west IS and the south, four.
 Made Relay Team I
 Ben Eastman, Stanford. Frank Wykoff, University of Southern California and Bob Kiesel, Univer- sity, of California, were toppled from the throne of "unbeatables." Although Wykoff and Kiesel were shut out of the first three places in the sprints, they were picked by Robertson and Chairman Avery Brundage of the American Olympic committee, to run on the 400-meter relay team.
 willie Carr, diminutlve Penn sylvania star, clearly demonstrated his victory two weeks ago over Eastman was not a happen-so. Carr flashed over the 400-meters dash in 46.9 seconds, easily leav- ing Eastman at the finish to shat ter the world record.
 Probably the worst blow given to worlds record was the perform ance of Bill Graber, '. s. C., in adding nearly three inches to Lee Barnes pole vault mark. Graber hoisted himself IA feet 4 3-S inch es.
 In the sprints, two negro youths, Ralph Metcalfe of Marquette and Eddie Tolan of Michigan. blazed over the 100 and 200 meters in front of Kiesel. Wykoff, Dyer and others. Metcalfe finished first in each event, trailed by Tolan and with George Simpson. Ohio, third.
 Great Work
 Tinland's superiority in the dis tance races may be contested by Joe McCluskey, Fordham. who Topped off f.3 seconds off the B. 900 meters steeplechase record of L0ukola of Finland. set at the Paris l Olympics.
 The Olympic committee cre- atcd buzz buzz of rumors to-day by it's action last night in remov- ing Levi Casey. Los Angeles hop, step and jump artist. from the team flor reasons best known to the athlete.' Casey won third in ] the event Saturday.

one thing that seems to bother many golfers is the gauging of jhow far apart the feet should be kept for driving.
 There is no set rule. but IA to 15 inches is about the average dis tance. For a midiron shot the feet might be a bit closer.
 The best way to find the width of stance suited to the individual is 10 sec that at the top of the back swing there is 0 nice sense of bal nnce and that the feet do not in- terfere with the pivot of the body at the hips.
 Experiment until the proper dIs. tanee is acquired. starting with the feet close together and gradually widening the stance.

He Sets Limits

To combat such expenditures Yves bill would limit sums dis hursed for Presidential nomina- tions at $250.000, and for Presiden- tial elections to $5,00O,000. At the same time he would limit Senators to $50,O00 and Represen- tatiyes to $l0,000 for both nomin- ation and election.
 To allow for the great variation in the number of voters to be reached in the various states there is provision that Senate expendi- lures would be limited to two cents and House expenditures to four cents vote for every vote cast for all candidates for office in the pre- ceding election.
