NEW YORK, May 27.-A smooth
working. high-geared piece of track
and field machinery swept through
the 63d championships of the
intercollegiate A. A. A. A. today and
turned in set Of cord-shattering
performances that should stand for
many years to come.
Before a crowd of $500 in Tri-
borough Stadium. and under per-
feet weather conditions, the Trojans
of Southern California piled up
711z points, highest in the meets
history, to win the team title for
the second straight year and the
ninth time since 1925.
Winning five individual events,
sharing in two others and adding
the mile relay championship as a
crowning touch, the Trojans spread
eagled the field so badly that Pitts
burgh, in second place, had only
26 points and none of the others
got beyond 20.
But while the Pacific Coast Con-
ference champions were making
good so handsomely on their awe
some reputation, Long John Wood
ruff of Pittsburgh did all that
could be expected of a lone
fastener standing up against this
20-man Western invasion.
Woodruff Scores Double.
In his final I. c. "A. appearance,
Woodruff won the 440-yard and
880-yard titles for the third straight
year and made this finale the best
of the three.
Forced to show fight to retain
his quarter-mile honors in a A.
man blanket finish which saw him
equal the meet record of At seconds
fiat for the third time, he ran a
front race in the half mile an hour
and 20 minutes later and set up
a new I. c. "A mark of / minute
512 seconds.
U. S. C.'s team score bettered its
own mark of 1924 points established
in 1882 at Berkeley, Calf. Woodruff S
$50, in which he won by 10 yards
over Curtis Giddings of New York
u, who subsequently was disquaH-
fled for fouling on the turn, Topped
seventh-tenths of a second of Ben
Eastman's seven-year-old standard.
In addition to Woodruff's S perfor-
mances, three new records were
made and one meet record was
equaled, all by U. s. C.'s repre-
sentatives.
New Mile Time Set.
Lou Zamperini, who ran the 5000
meters on the 1886 U. S. Olympic
team, brought the 1-mile time down
to ALP In his first I. G. "A. ap-
pearance.
Red-head Earl Vickery, who flew
over the 220-yard low hurdles in 23.1
in yesterdays eliminations for new
record, hauled that down to 22.8 in
the final.
And Bob Peoples javelin throw of
223 feet 11A inches, which led the
qualifiers yesterday, stood up as the
best performance of the two days.
U. S. C.'s Jim Humphrey tied the
record Of IA seconds In winning

James D. Ross, 81,
Bonneville Dan,
Chief, Is Dead
Pioneer Proponent Of
Public Power Dies
Of Heart Attack

Former associates, high Govern
ment officials, today mourned the
death of James D. Ross, 67-year- old
administrator of the Bonneville Dam
power project in Washington State.
A pioneer proponent of public
power development, Mr.. Ross was
named to the Bonneville post after
serving here as member of the
Securities and Exchange Commits
sion and as consulting engineer to
the Public Works Administration.
His death came yesterday of a
heart attack suffered suddenly at
Rochester, Mimi, as he was conva-
lescing from an abdominal operation
performed there several weeks ago.
According to the Associated Press,
Mr.. Ross had been reported on the
way to recovery and had discussed
plans for returning to Seattle Just
before the fatal heart attack.
Tribute by Roosevelt.
President Roosevelt paid tribute
to Mr.. Ross as lone of the greatest
Americans of our generation" In
formal statement the President
said:
"An outstanding mathematician
and an equally great engineer, he
combined with this the practical
ability to make things work in the
sphere of public opinion and sue
cessful business"
Commenting last night, Secretary
of Interior Ickes, under whom Mr..
Ross served, said:
'The passing of j. D. Ross takes
from us man of courage and vision
who was a real pioneer in his field.
He foresaw first what the devel-
opment of hydro electric power
could do for the Northwest and
labored until he achieved results
in Seattle which brought wide
spread acclaim. AS the first ad-
ministrator of the Bonneville prof.
ect, he worked for the past year
and half with similar devotion in
an even wider field"
William O. Douglas, chairman of
the S. E. c. said:
The death of j. D. Ross is not
only a tragic loss to the great
Northwest but to the whole Nation.
He was one of the outstanding pub
lie servants of his generation. His
fairness, his integrity, his technical
ability and his devotion to a cause
established an ideal for all who
followed"
Was Born in Ontario.
Mr.. Ross was born in Chatham,
Ontario, in 1871. From his youth
he was interested In power devel-
opment, and he became superin-
tendent of the municipal power sys-
tenn of Seattle in 1903. He was on
leave from that position when he
died, having been granted absence
in 1888 to become an influential
power adviser to the New Deal.
Between 1888 and 1885 he was
consulting power engineer to the
P. w. A., in the latter year being
named to the Securities and Ex-
change Commission. On October 10,
1887. President Roosevelt, longtime
personal friend of Mr.. Ross, named
him administrator of the Bonneville
project.
Mr.. Ross will be buried in Seattle.
