THE crowd, irritated by delays and
the failure Of the public address
system to function, repeatedly booed
the ofncials. cheered when one OF
them almost was hit by o wayward
javelin, and voiced further displeas-
ure at the decision to cancel quail
flying trials in the 1,500-meter run
and the 3.000-meter steeplechase.
Newspaper men invaded the infield
to obtain accurate information on
what was happening in most events.
SO completely demoralized was the
set-up for supplying facts and fig-
ures on the tryouts.
The 1.500-meter runners, including
Glenn Cunningham, Bill Bonthron,
Gene Venzke and Archie San Romani,
were on their marks, ready for the
starters gun, when sudden decision
was made to put the entire event on.
With only . dozen entries showing
up, it was agreed to run the 1900
meter in one final heat tomorrow.

Manning, Joe McCluskey and Glen
Dawson stand out. also will be run

was sixth. John Anderson of the New
York A. c., just out of hospital and
recuperating from an attack of grip,
saw his chances of defending the dis
Gus title fade quickly. Anderson's best
throw measured only 1873 feet l134
inches, and he finished eighth in a
field of nine.
The discus tossers. as well as the
shotputters, competed under condi-
tions that found them far of form
and complaining as bitterly about the
footing as spectators were about the
generally confusing conduct Of the
meet. Gordon Dunn, qualifying in
both weight events for tomorrow's
finals, topped the discus throwers at
157 feet 7la inches.
