LaGuardia charged that "tre-

LaGuardia asserted that an at

veterans bonus proposal to offset
social legislation that is needed,

He referred to a Olll he has intro

clared, must take care of the super

estimated that but 13 per cent OF

summer.
Two world champions, several
er-collegiate champions and hall
dozen or more athletes expected
to wear the United States Shield
in the OlympicS were on the list
OF entries. use, by virtue of
sheer man power, was favored TO
win the annual dual meeting.
Principal interest of the fans
centered upon Ben Eastman, STAN
ford's famous middle distance man,
who already this season has
cracked the worlds records in the
440 and the 800-yard ruin East
man was scheduled to win both
events and perhaps capture the
four-man relay fer Stanford by
his speed in the final lap. 1t was
expected that Big Ben will take
the baton at a disadvantage of 10
or more yards lost to use. by his
three teammates.
Performance of Frank Wykoff,
the Trojan sprint champion, also
was highlight of the meet. Wy
koff was to run in the 100-yard
dash and compete in the 800 unless
some of his numerous injuries
bother him after the shorter run
is finished
Dean Cromwell, coach of Troy,
and Dink Templeton, bed-riaden
coach of Stanford, each belittled
his respective chance for success.
If the stories of the two mentors
were to be taken seriously, the meet
should be held in the corridor of
some secluded hospital. With the
exception Of Eastman, almost every
first-class performer was classed
as a semi-cripple or an invalid.
