HE'D SHORTEN
 TRACK MEETS
 FOR PURPOSE

IOWA CITY, Ia, July 23.-Assis- tant Coach w. T. Soloson, of the University of Iowa has formula for popping up interest in high school dual track and field meets.
 He recommends abandonment of the broad jump because it lags, the 220-yard dash because it cannot be made interesting to spectators, the 20O-yard low hurdles bebause 1t is not test of hurdling ability and the discuss throw because 1t is dan gerous and uninteresting.
 This would leave the l00-yard dash, 440-yard dash, half and one- mile events, 120-yard high hurdles 440 88O and mile relays, pole vault high jump, javelin and shot put.
 Swensen says these should be run off within an hour and that about the same program, with addition of the two-mile run and possible elim- ination of one of the sprint relays could be used to speed up college meets.

DIVORCE RUM0R IN HOLL. YW00D TRACED AT LAST
It Wasn't Neil Hamilton, Actor, But Neil Ham,
 ilton, Rancher
By RoBBIN CooNs

HOLLYWOOD. Cal, July g. - Divorce rumors in filmland spread like blazes. Usually the principals, even if there's no divorce, know where the rumors start. But Neil Hamilton never did, until the other day when the long arm of coinci- dence reached out.
 It was five years ago that rumor had Neil and Elsa spatting. It took them six months of steady denying and that's hard work in Holly wood-to convince the gossips oth- erwise. When they returned from England recently, the story was so dead nobody thought of it--not even Neil--until he visited desert ranch near here and met Neil Hamilton.
 Mistaken Identity
 The other Neil Hamilton is ranch worker. Before the actor depart cd, the ranch Neil confided his be- lief that he'd been the unwilling cause of the rumors in Hollywood. The rancher Hamilton had divorced his wife about that time. and it was

 Secret Patrol" concerns the eff forts of the world famous Royal Canadian Mounted Police in stamp ing out a band of ruthless criminals intent upon creating labor troubles in a large logging camp.
 The Western is loaded with cow boy comedy that packs a wallop Steve Davis (Buck Jones) and his mischief making cowboys, on their monthly celebration, wreck laun- dry Later, Judge Talbot orders Steve to get his crowd out of town or go to jail. Steve promises to re- form. He leaves after sneaking some cartridges into the courtroom stove. The explosion spatters the 1 judge with soot.

INDIANS SEEK DIvvY

Now the majority of the Indians, who made no selections, contend the allotments never were complet- ed and that revenues from the land used by the resort should go to the band for division equally among the members. One estimate was that this would give each Indian about $100 a month.
 An attorney for certain of the Indians who did make land selec- tions, argues that they really have full title. The "unallotted Indians" insist this claim is a frost and that if title is granted to the individual Indians the whites soon will have full possession and then no Indians will benefit. The Indian bureau is backing them in asking a law to prohibit completing the allot- lmentS.
 Meanwhile things have come to a pretty pass in Palm Springs. The Indians charge for use of the spring, which is on their side of the road. They charge fees for cars driving

then the Hollywood Hamilton start ed getting inquiries.
 And I know that explains it." says the Hollywood Neil, because the first inquiries about me and Elsa came from that very region''
 Neil and Elsa have been away two years They are living at the beach because Garbo has rented their house, but they probably will be returning to England in the fall anyway. Unless Neil accepts the African stage tour, in which case he'll polish up his magic I'll use that to compensate for any lack of histronics the customers might notice
 It struck me, seeing Hamilton again, that Robert Taylor might take a few lessons in how an over ly handsome actor deals with the fatal curse of beauty. It wasn't so long ago that Hamilton, who ac- tually did pose for collar-ads once, was getting the same unfeeling course of treatment" at the hands of the local wits. Don't know that anybody ever called Neil pretty you don't when you know him, anyway-but for a long time the collar1ad curse lay on him heavily. Just as it lay, in his time, on the late Wallace Reid.
 Hopes They Last
 So I thought I'd learn from Neil, for Bob-how Neil mastered the situation But I got nowhere
 Boy" said Neil, with fervent hu- nor, If I've got any looks I hope they last-so l can keep on making out income tax returns.'
 But. Neil is the same debonair chap he used to be. and still one If the best story tellers in these

Whether this change of control came about with strict justice to the Indians is i'll dispute.
 It has happened something like this:
 Twenty years ago the Indian bu- reau decided to break up the res- .ervation among the Indians. A .feW of the several score Indians in the band chose their land Almost at once they surrendered control of it to the. whites who built the resort town The property at pres ent is estimated to be worth mil lion and a half.
