KILN Denies AnNazi Sentiment StrangLing Berin Funt
Today's Sport Parade
By Henry McLemOre United Prsss stan COrrsspondentD

-he's a Doctor Conley-and he is, or used to be, @ doctor in the marines. He happen to be in my little old town or F,zonteuac when that truck hit me, and he was the one who wouldn't let the doctors cut off my leg. He said he thought he could save 1t. l was only eight then, and he left town while still was in bed. But he told my people that when got up, to make me run around lot to strengthen it.. I did, and I've been running ever since" AYR
 And pretty fast, too. He was only a yard or two back of the great Cunningham when Glenn hit the tape Saturday, and he was full of run. Cunningham's' winning time was 3:64.2, and Archie has turned the distance in 3:63. Last week marked the first time the French Italian boy had ever finished in front of Venzke and Bonthorn, and mes praying he'll be able to do 1t this week when the chips really are on the table, for only the one- twc-three fiinishers will be taken to Berlin.
 Archie told me I might be inter- ested in telling in my story, how he has a rest pulse beat of only A. This shocked me tremendously, for l had always believed that if man didn't hit up Q brisk 72 he was irl grave danger of dying. Good diS- tance runners, Archie explained to the accompaniment of whAcks on his ribs and Hanks by the trainer, have Q low pulse beat.
 Mine is exceptionally low" he said. "Even when I'm walking about and exercising mildly, my heart doesn't beat but around 60 or 62."
 With that fine flair for accuracy which has marked my career as a journalist, I called the academy of medicine after talking to Archie, and asked Dr. 1ago Galston how about that A heart beat of Archie's.
 Entirely possible" Dr. Galston answered. "A low beat is very com- mon among athletes who are good in gruelling contests. Not many ath- letes have beat as low as A, how ever."
 Dr. Galston explained the advant- ages of the low heart beat to me, and as I made 1t out, Q low beat gives the heart more time to rest. The heart cycle consists of three phases-the filling of the auricle, the filling of the ventricle, and the rest period. With Q low beat the rest period IS longer.
 But to leave Archie's heart, and get back to Archie, who is stretched out on a table, very bare. (Archie is bare, not the table.
 He's been running comparatively for six years. He's junior at Em- poria State Teachers college, and will get his degree in rnusic-yes, music--in 1887. He plans to teach public school music. He's @ cornet player. Carries his horn with him at ell times. Archie offered to play me a tune, but having once heard c cornet, I said, no don't bother, and went out Q side door.

New York, July 7-The darkest moment in the life of Archie San Romani came on Q hot afternoon m a little Kansas town 1S years ago. when they lifted his near lie. iess body from beneath the wheels of a heavy truck.
 His right leg was badly crushed. and for a week the doctors debated whether to amputate.
 The brightest moment in the Ire of Archie San Romani came late last aaturday afternoon in Prince tons Palmer stadium when, with l5.OOO people looking on, he came down the stretch to beat out famed Gene Venzlre and Bill Bonthorn, and run second to Glenn Cunning ham in the 1600-meter race.
 "You know" Archie said today as he lay on a rubbing table and Q trainer annoiitcd him with plingent oils. "you know, if I do as all right in the final trials Saturday, and make a place on the Olympic team, A doctor I don't even know oughta get all the credit. I know his name

RANDALL ISLAND MEET TO DRAW S47,OOO TO FUND
Seattle Pledges $4,OOO; New York A. C. Also
 to Help OIympics

New york. July 7.-(UP)-Ameris can olympic committee officials to- day reported an encouraging re- sponse to their nationwide plea Ior funds to send the United 5tages teams to Berlin this summer.
 With e shortage of @l6O,OOO in the 8227,OOO budget less than 10 days before sailing time, the conn mittee appealed to the public in the name of American eportSmanship for donations to pay expenses of 9 complete and representative squad to Germany.
 New Yorkers answered the call by swamping the Metropolitan Olympic office with orders for tick- cts to the track and field final tryouts at Randall's Island eatur- day and Sunday. A sell out with gate of 947,OOO was believed as- sured. Nearly the entire sum will be profit because the New York park department Is donating the stadium free of charge. g
 Committee President Avery Brundage, before catching plane for Chicago late yesterday, report- ed that various committees had notified him of approximately e2S,- GOO on hand which would be sent to Treasurer Gustavus T. Kirby i'm" mediately.
 Seattle came through with Q $4,S GOO guarantee to assure their Uni- versity of Washington champion "FIusIsies" Q chance to show what they can do against the worlds rowing talent. Other groups were reported raising money for them individual competitors. <.
 The New York Athletic club was reported to have assured the coins mittee of c sum sufficient to pre- vent leaving any of It's Olympic hopefuls ct home.
 A statement of former A. A. U. President Jeremiah T. Maloney that anti-Nazi sentiment was the cause of the shortage was denied by Kirby who said it wasn't the number of contributors that he'd decreased but the size of the contributions that had diminished. -

 Sunday, the East Mountain
 team travelled to the Naugatuck
 Golf Club to take on the Naugy
 boys in a match. The moun-
 taineers compromised with the
 boys from the Rubber Town
 and came back to the hills with
 a tie-score under their belts.
 The match was a close one all
 the way through, the ball of
 victory bouncing back and forth
 from one side to another as
 short butts tipped the cup and
 failed to drop. In practically
 every match the victory was an
 uncertainty until the final hol-
 ing on the last green.
 Matt Penikas and R. zeigler took honors in the 'kickers" handicap held at the Municipal Course, Sat urday afternoon. Penikas carded a 66 and zeigler 72. This is popl- lar form of one day tournament and we will probably see more in the near future.

Pope Has Painting Spell
and Grows Weaker

II OPE for the recovery of Pope
IL Plus dwindled day by day. He
suffered a fainting spell and was
reported to be exceedingly weak.
His illness was complicated by high
fever and there was danger of in
fluenza. Senator Nicola Panda of
Rome, widely known as a specialist
on the ills of old age, was sum-
moned by DR.. Amanti Milani and
both agreed that the pontiff must
have complete rest. His visitors
were limited to the ten cardinals
who are projects of executive bodies
of the church and they were per-
mitted to enter the sick room only
one each day to obtain the pope's
authorization for their most impor-
tant decisions. The customary
Christmas eve audience for cardi-
nails and diplomats was cancelled,
and the pope also had to abandon
his plan to celebrate mass on the
57th anniversary of his ordination
to the priesthood.

term. Still more immediate was the
task of writing his annual message
on the state of the nation and his
budget message for the coming fis-
cal year.
The inaugural ceremonies will be
simple in accordance with Mr..
Roosevelt's wishes, and the tradi-
tional ball will be omitted. After
consultation with Rear Admiral
Cary T. Grayson, chairman of the
inaugural committee, and Vice
President Garner, it was decided
that the parade should be limited
to units from the army, navy and
marine corps and from the West
Point and Annapolis academies.
One of Mr.. Roosevelt's first duties
was a sad one-that of attending
the funeral services for August Cen
nerich, his close friend and body
guard, who died suddenly in Buenos
Aires. The services were held in
the White House and with the Presi-
dent were Mrs. Roosevelt, Vice
President and Mrs. Garner and cab

President Gomez of Cuba
Breaks With Batista

RESIDENT MIGUEL GOMEZ of
L Cuba and his administration are
at outs with Col. Fulgencio Batista,
chief of staff and the strong man"
of the island republic. Batista has
been insisting on a bill for a 8
cents a bag sugar tax designed to
produce $2,000,000 revenue annually
for rural schools to be operated by
army sergeants. Gomez and his
crowd have opposed this legislation,
fearing it means the rise of fas-
cism; but it is warmly supported
by the farmers, tobacco raisers and
canefeld workers, thousands of
whom marched to Havana to de-
mand the passage of the bill These
people call Batista defender of the
common people" and savior of Gu
ba."
The sugar tax bill was passed,
but President Gomez persisted in
his opposition, and vetoed the
measure. The BatiSta followers de-
manded his resignation and also
prepared to have him impeached by
the house of Representatives At this
writing it is expected Gomez will
quit his office.
Several months ago Batista was
quoted as saying he would not be
afraid to head a dictatorship IF it
were necessary for the good of the
country" He may soon be called
on to assume that position

up from one ankle to knee, and
cold and dreadful faintness crept
over her. Andy" she whispered
involuntarily, as one speaks of
safe harbor in time of storm.
Paul came after her. Somehow
his picturesque good looks did not
count for much now, though he
tried valiantly to help her. I've
twisted my ankle, I'm afraid"
gasped Dora. What shall we do?
Can you put your imagination to
work." she added.
Just then, cold, truly fearful for
what lay ahead, they heard a dim
halloo in the distance. They waited
and soon Andy's bulky and solid
figure stood above the gully. He
plunged down quickly and gave not
a word of rebuke save thought
you might have trouble, so l trailed

It was Andy who took Dora back
to her home. He carried her all
the way, first over one shoulder,

why don't you scold me?" she
demanded.
She could not see his face, but
she felt him smiling.
At last Andrew deposited her on
her own couch in her own home and
telephoned for the doctor. The last
bandage was patted into place on
her plaster cast as midnight struck.
"You know, Andy" remarked Dora
slowly, I'D honestly rather be here
with you and broken ankle, than
at the New Years dance at Dorset.
Quaint of me, isn't it?"
Big, solid, unpicturesque Andy
stopped over and kissed her.
Happy New Year, Gear! I'm
afraid it will be a long time till

fore him. T. V. Soong, who is Chi
ang's brother-in-law, went to SIAN
fu to attempt to arrange for Chi
ang's release. American and Brit
ish governments were concerned
over the safety of their nationals
in Sianfu if that city should be be-
sieged by the National army. There
would certainly be distressing
shortage of food and fuel, and to
this would be added the dangers of
probable bombardment by artillery
and airplanes. Discipline among
the mutinous troops is known to be
very poor and already there have
been many instances of murder and
looting.

was part of a deliberate plan to
line up western powers, including
soviet Russia, against Japan. The
Chinese ambassador to Toxic was
told by Foreign Minister Hachiro

would not be permitted to enter in
to any accord that would make it
appear that it favored war against
Japan. Arita made it plain that
Japan would abandon its waiting
policy if Nanking compromised with

Hitler Suggests Dividing
Spain Into Two Parts


TT NOW seems likely that General
L Franco and his Fascist armies
cannot conquer Spain without open
and substantial aid from sympa-
thetic nations, and that cannot be
given him without grave danger of
precipitating a general European
war. But Adolf Hitler has devised
a plan for solving the Spanish prob
lem and probably will soon offer
it to the powers. His scheme is for
the division of Spain into two coun-
tries, a Fascist state comprising
the area Franco now holds and in
cIuding Madrid, and a republican
state centering in Catalonia. To ar
range this Germany may propose
a general peace conference.
General Faupel, personal aide to
General Franco, went to Berlin and
told the reichsfuehrer that the Fas-
cista must have more help. But Hit
ler is moving with considerable eau
ton, though he has recognized the
Franco regime.
The Russian government has
made official charges that the Span
ish Fascists set fire to and sank the
Soviet motorship Konsomol and
warned them Of grave conse-
quences Newspaper announcements
told the Spanish insurgents they
were playing with fire" and called
the act ''frightful new crime of in
cendiarists of war"
