bust for the home fans. Even be-
fore the Millers hit town the In
dams dived into a tailspin against
st. Paul Friday night, and close dia-
mond observers expressed fear at
the time that the HooSiers were on
the point of folding up. The record
now is four straight defeats, one by
the Apostles Friday, one by the Mil
lerS Saturday and two at the hands
of the BuShmen Sunday.
One Run All Day
In the Sabbath double header the
home nine scored only one run all
afternoon, losing to l and 4 to 0,
after f1oundering to lose the series
opener Saturday, 8 to 3. The Mil

tried as the Tribe defense cracked
wide open along with the failure to
hit with runners on the bases.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. Is
Fresh from a decisive victory in the

Sunday defeated a British Empire
team in the fifth renewal of the
post-Olympic contests of the two
aggregations.
Although Handicapped by the alb
sence of such stars as Eddie Tolan,

Heinlein

here to defend the laurels he won at
French Lick last year An interest
ing feature, however, is the absence
from the early field of all former
champions except Heinlein.
Some of the old champions have
passed out of the picture, but Bill
Diddel, Eddie thinner, Dwight
Mitchell, Bobby Resener, Johnny
Simpson, and Herman Slelken nave
entered in recent years.
Poor health caused thinner TO
pass up the tourney, it is said, and
Johnny Simpson is Handicapped by
back injury.
Youngsters Are Threats
Among the younger stars expected
to force Heinlein to the limit If he
is to retain his 1881 laurels are
Fritz Cox, the newly crowned state
Junior champion; Billy Reed Jr.,
Times schoolboy champ Of Indian
apolis and runner-up to Cox, and
Phil Talbot, Cox I, U. teammate
and runnerup to Heinlein last year.
Talbot served notice that he
would be back in the running this
wear when he fired practice round
Sunday in SO, three under par. he
was four under par on the first
nine for a record 80, including eagles
on the first, second and third holes.
He lost a stroke on the short par
4 fourth and two strokes on the
long par 4 sixth. He had brides
on the eighth and tenth, but was
one over on the thirteenth and sew
enteenth holes.
Two SOS Needed
Several other good scores were
turned in Sunday, but none ap-
preached Talbott's mark. A pair of
SOS will be good enough to gain
the select thirty-two finalist after
the thirty-siX holes Of qualifying
play, the experts believe. The course
is not regarded as difficult, as the
French Lick links, where 1854 was
necessary to qualify in 1881.
Two eighteen-hole rounds will be
played on Wednesdays match play
schedule with thirty-siX holes carded
for the quarter-flnals Thursday,
semi-finals Friday and the title
match Saturday.

Groom Stanford Junior For Great
Iron Man. Stunt In Track Events

The first haH-mile Ben ran in
practice he was clicked in 1922.
Templeton thinks Ben will be
ready this season to break the
worlds records both at 440 and
$50 yards. And he thinks the
youth will be one Of the "big
guns" of the Olympics at Los
Angeles.
For his part, Eastman neither is
dubious nor over confident. He
says he's "just going to run" He
has no hobbies and admits he's
not a personality kid" He is an
average youth, of good family and
we'll behaved. He is majoring in
economics.
Ben's older brother, Sam, is a
miller on the Stanford squad, but
Is not such q star as Ben. How
ever, Ben said he got more thrill
out of watching Sam win race
last year than he did In running
the last lap of mile relay in
which the Stanford team set a
new worlds record of 3:126.
In running that lap, Ben whiz-
zed around the track in Al Sec
onds flat. Later, in practice,
Templeton clicked him at 81 $40
seconds in the 220-yard dash, less
than q second over the world
mark,
