PEACOCK ERASED
AS OLYMPIC HOPE
Other Veteran Stars Have
Close Calls in East'S
Semi-FinaI Trials.
By the Associated Press.


@AMBRIDGE, Mass, June 81
The path to American Olym-
pic track and field honors
- was beset with pitfalls today
for some of the best-known athletes
competing in the Eastern semi-f1nal
tryouts at the Harvard Stadium.
The warning for the veterans was
sounded yesterday when Eulace Pea
cock, Negro star who achieved record
shattering triumphs last year in the
national broad jump and 100-meter
championships, passed out of the pic
ture. Peacock, still handicapped by
damaged leg tendon, withdrew from
the sprint to concentrate on the broad
jump, only to fall far short Of qualify
ing. He barely cleared % feet.
1882 Olympic Champ Is Fourth.
STILL in the competition but facing
pressure were such favorites as
Jack Torrance, world record holding
shot putter, who trailed "Dimmy''
Zaitz, Boston; Eddie Gordon, the 1882
Olympic broad jump champion, who
was a poor fourth in the broad jump
trials, and Bill Bonthron, who barely
qualified for the 800-meter final as
a prelude to tackling his old rival,
Gene Venzke, in the 1,50o-meter final
this afternoon.
Only the first two finishers In each
of the II events can be sure of enter
ing the final American tryouts at Ran
dalrs Island, July Hip.
Outstanding among today's favorites
was Glenn Hardin. Louisiana State
ace, who glided through two 400-meter
hurdle trials impressively.

ROD AND STREAM
by GEORGE HUBER

THERE is no reason why the Po-
tomac should not be one Of the
best bass streams in the country. It
has plenty of weedy spots, overhanging
rocks and log drifts, and a stranger in
these parts Immediately would size it
up as bass paradise. There is plenty
Of bass food. Late yesterday the min
nows were all around us going after
the small water bugs on the surface.
Perhaps one reason for minnows being
so plentiful is that there are too few
bass in the Potomac to menace them.
OLLIE ATLAS has Just returned
from his weekly trip to Solomons,
where he says the hardhead are big
as horses" More than 200 were caught
by his party, which included Harry
Cohen, Fred Mae and Sam Hamlein.
They fished far out in the ship chan
nel.' The best time, Atlas says, is from
to 8 in the afternoon and evening.
John Alcorn, fishing from one Of Capt
George Horsman's rowboats up in the
Patuxent at Benedict, caught Al hard
head weighing up to 4 pounds. He
says that anglers using power boats
were doing even better.
Down in the Southwest Middles every
one is catching blues. Capt Willoughby
brought back "a. weighing between 8
and 9 pounds each, along with a large

Has Own Language.

HAS ONh Language
GONE old-timers won't use the
wedge, but there isn't any ques-
ton about It: in the hands of the
modern masters of the game, the
Sarazens, Coopers, Picards and Run
ysns, the sand wedge speaks q Ian
guase ell its own.
It's par-buSting language that has
set the American golf professional on
a scorning pinnacle all his own, for
there isn't any question that he Is
the smoothest scoring machine golf
ever has seen.
Indeed, it's gotten so now that on a
good many par holes the pros delib-
erately play for the bunkers if the
green Is closely trapped, knowing that
their chances Of finging a ball out of
the sand within holing distance is bet
ter from close up, even in the sand,
than from 80 or 40 yards away from
the green.
The old custom on these holes was to
play short and trust for deadly pitch
to bag the birdie, but the boys do it
differently now, so sure are they with
the new-fangled sand tools. 1t is a
literal fact that bunkers, unless they
are Of the saw-toothed type that in
fest Oakmont, no longer have any ter
rors for the low-scoring pros Of 1886.

M sand wastes carry terror for
" the topnotch golf pros Of the
Nation. The sand wedge and
the various tools that have come
along in the wake of the wedge have
made bunkers preferable in many
cases to deep. heavy rough around
the edges Of putting green's, and the
advance in scoring over the last three
or four years may be directly traced
to the comparative ease with which
our leading golfers extricate them
selves from trouble that a few years
ago would have meant loss Of a stroke.
Gene pitches out of bunker dead
10 the pin"
Picard came out of a trap and
holed a 4-footer for his par"
Tony banged the ball out Of the
sand within foot Of the pin and
holed the putt for the birdie"
Cooper took his wedge and played
such a fine shot that the ball spun
around the lip of the cup"
SO read the golf stories nowadays.
telling the tale OF bunkers that arc
almost useless as hazards. their terror
gone before the newest golf tool-the
sand wedge.

IN THE other 100-meter heat" Mack
Robinson and Tommy Nelson oi
Pasadena and Bryant Allen, Los
Angeles High School Negro, coasteo
down the track together, Robinson
edging out in front to win in liz
seconds.
Robinson also won his heat" in the
200 meters in 2l.5 seconds, and
Graham was timed the same in taking
his test.
Ben Eastman was expected TO run
and win at will-the 800-meter event
Jimmy Luvalle was figured to have NO
trouble in the 400 meters, and Bill
Seton, University of Southern Cali
fonia, was enteed in the pole vault
He already has qualified TO go into

TO BE really successful fishing in
the Potomac River right now
one should have live bait Take
Il a small net along and you will
have no trouble catching your own
minnows as you need them. This de-
partmert was up there yesterday after
noon locking the ground over and
noted that only those anglers using
these small river inhabitants were
having any luck.
For our part we tried to lure in a
bass or two via the artificial bait route,
but met with a notable lack of success.
Taking one of Capt. Joe Fletcher s
little red rowboats we went on up to
Chain Bridge. Then, letting the boat
drift downstream with the current, we
tried casting toward likely looking
spots along both shores. The bass
wouldn't be lured with anything.
Underwater plugs, spinners, swimmers,
peppers and injured minnows all were
spurned.

only seven men we're present for the
100. and six for the 200.
Frank Wykoff, given big hand in
his comeback" campaign, won the
dash in the good time of 1915 seconds
