The Giants hit well but lacked

had things pretty much his way
after the Elites counted one in the

BERLIN, July 81. Americas
Olympic track coaches, who
battled during the tryouts and
again aboard the Manhattan COM
ing over, began pickering again to-
day as their runners and jumpers
prepared for their first hard train
ing work since leaving home.
Chief Coach Lawson RobertSon's
dissatisfaction is concentrated
chiefly on E. c. Hayes, Of Indiana
University, who, thinks Robertson,
is putting Don Lash, his Indiana
protege, through his PAGES a little
too hard.
Larry Snyder, who was left off
the official coaching list in a row
with Robertson, thinks the Olym-
pic village track is too soft, and
that it may cause pulled muscles
amongst the sprinterS.
Snyder Dissatisfied
Snyder, incredibly enough, Is
even dissatisfied with his Jesse
Owens from Ohio State, who is
just good enough that he did 300
yards in 30 is seconds last night,
for an unofficial worlds record.
ooh, he could do that any
time he wants to-" was Snyder'S
comment.
However" Snyder added, 81
consider the track at the village
to be dangerous. It's composed
of sandy loan, which is hard
on the leg muscles. I asked
Robertson to shift the track
practice over to the Olympic
sports field, but so far have had
no success"
Although Robertson is also
alarmed because Hayes is working
all his lads at top speed, he Is
leaving the matter entirely up to
Hayes. Hayes says it is his plan
to work Lash hard today and to-
morrow and then taper off. The
remainder of the IL Americans
who will participate in Sundays
opening events are, on the other
hand, beginning to accelerate
their training pace today.

It's all very diSconcerting. Is
nothing sacred?
Yesterday the Dodgers disguised
themselves as big leaguerS so eff
fectively that they frightened the
Pittsburgh Pirates into losing two
games and dropping forthwith
from third to fourth place. The
scores were / to 0 and 4 to 3. And,
just to make the picture even
more incongruouS, they accom-
plished the miracle the hard way
. waiting until the ninth inning
in both games before pushing the
winning run across.
Giants Divide
The Dodgers big city brethren,
the Giants, could get no better
than an even break with the Gin
cinnati Reds. but the double lick.
ing administered to the Pirates
enabled them to exchange places
in the standings with the Pitts
burghers. The Giants took the
opener, 5 to 4, with all the color
of a ten-twenty-thirt' meller-
dramer, providing the seasons
first triple play, and staging a
three-run rally in the last Of the
ninth. In the nightcap, however
the Reds got off to an early lead
at Gabler's expense and were
never headed. The score Of this
game was SO.

Paced by Donald Bulge, the red
headed California you1gster who
is Uncle Sans No. l singles per
former, now that Wilmer Allison
has gone into retirement, and
Carolin Babcock, Wightman Cup
ace, 81 of the brightest stars in
the American tennis armament,
started play today in the forty
ninth annual invitation tourna-
ment of the Seabright Lawn
Tennis and Cricket Club.
At least half a dozen of the Sc
lected topnotchers faced oppoSi-
ton definitely OF the upset variety.
Gene Smith, a fellow Californian,
figures to be easy enough for
Bulge, but Sidney Wood, No. 2 on
the mems honor list, was none too
sure Of getting past Walter Senior,
the Coast newcomer, who topped
Wilmer Hines at Longwood last
week. and Ernie Suffer, younger
brother of the famous Cliff,
loomed as a formidable obstacle
for No. 4, favored Greg Mangin.
Nor did Hal Surface, rated eighth,
look upon the veteran Manuel
Alfonso as push-over, for all the
former Spanish Davis Cup aces
many years.
The trouble girl in the ladies'
play was Carolin Roberts, New
York youngSter who never won an
important tournament in her
life, and then went up to Long
wood and left a long stream of
seeded stars in her wake before
she was bumped off in the final
by Alice Marble.
Miss Marble figures to be Miss
Babcock'S main rival for the
women'S crown, but Miss Roberts
and Dorothy Sutton Bundy, the
California youngster who took a
set from the Longwood winner,
can make lots Of trouble for the
topnotcherS. Neither was favored
with a seeded position, despite
their excellent performances last
week.
Miss Babcock leads off against
a local girl, Margaret Anderson.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, July rs.
cleveland, Ohio, July 27.-The
Griffs left the happy hunting
grounds moving out of the valley
Of the Fathers of Waters to arrive
on the lake front for a joust with
the Indians. Bucky aHrriS would
like to play the Browns all year
and who wouldn't? The GriffS
took the series down in the Mound
City, but it may be different here.
The Indians lost two bizarre
contests to the Philadelphia Athr
letics, bowling by a score Of IS to
O, yesterday before they regained
their stride and poured the grief
on the Mackmen in the second
battle. The thought that the In
juns have completely regained
their stride is what frets Bucky
Harris. He can i'll afford any re-
currence of the Chicago debacle
in which three games out Of four
were lost.
It is entirely possible for the
Griffs to get out of the second
division, but this can be accomp-
lished only by sustained winning
streak.

The crowd got on Buck Newsom
early in the second game. Buck
DOTTED his chapeau whilst the

ings as:

One of the greatest catches in a
long time was turned in by Jess
Hill, who gaIloped back to the
left field fence and leaped high
to grab a triple off the bat OF
Harland Cliff.
Newsom should have stayed in
bed, or something like that. The
Browns got six hits and four runs
off'n him in three innings
Even Newsom will have difficulty
in explaining that performance.
Moose Solters whacked a triple
up against the centerfield fence

Jarrett was fired off
the u mite d States
Olympic team last
Thursday night.
This is Monday, and if I am
still burning a little under the
collar about the high-handed
action our amateur athletic of.
ficials, at least it can't be said
I have been hastyA in recording
my reactions.
My first conviction. on reading
the cablegramS, was, and still is.
that in choosing it's course of &C.
ton in retaliation for Mrs. Jal'
rett's refusal to adhere strictly
to training rules, the duly cloaked
amateur officials ran strictly to
form.
They Never Fail
That is to say that no man re-
calleth when, given half chance,
the A. A. U. tailed to wax com.
pletely asinine.
The people who have been run
ming the Amateur Athletic Union
which dominates the Olympics,
are the remnants of an age when
girl athletes wore thick cotton
boomers and blouSeS fitting
tightly about their pretty necks.
The petty chickering's Of our anna
teur fathers normally create no
ripple except among themselves.
They are members of a house
well divided, as proved some weeks
back when the matter as to
whether America would even be
represented in the Olympics, was
q heated issue.
Their difficulties in being able
to finance the American teams
trip to Berlin ought to pretty thor
oughly establish the fact that they
have lost caste in their own coun-
try.
Hov About Tolerance!
But when such committee pub
licly reprimandS the personal con-
duct of q grown and married wom-
an whose normal life has openly
been one of gayety and frivolity,
not particularly shocking in this
country or any of the other coun-
tries competing in the Olympics,
such high-handed action reflects
on Americas tolerance, and toler-
ance, my friends, is a very potent
ingredient of the thing we call
craftsmanship.
The vari-colored interlocking cir
cleS which form the insignia of
the OlympicS is supposed to repre-
sent international amity, accord,
understanding and friendly compe-
tition.
Which Of those qualities are to
be found in the American group
that found it within it's powers
and within their hearts to cast a
shadow on the name Of Eleanor
Holm Jarrett?
Man Made Rule
Suppose she did break the COM
mittee's training rules!
What Of it!
Is it worth an international cpl
Sode on the eve of the Olympics?
honestly do not think so, and
I believe the maj ority Of the broad
minded sports followers think the
same way. Four days of discus
sing the incident with those I nor
mally meet, in my sports Strolls,
convinceS me that the public is
not in sympathy with the suspen-
sion of Mrs. Jarrett for the rea-
sons given.
Here was an opportunity to ex-
ercise diplomacy-a quality Of
which you could never charge the
A. A. U. with being Surfeited.
Here was a case to handle, not
80 much with respect to the in
dividual concerned, but with def
erence to the reputation of Ameri-
can athletes generally.
Her own teammates pied for the
restoration of Mrs. Jarrett. It was
like the housewife who goes
through the whole barrel Of apples
