A Texan named Pete Watkins,
standing feet AZ inches, propelled
his 204-pound frame over the bar
at 6 feet 8 inches today to smash
the Drake relay carnival's high jump
record that had withstood assault
for q years.
This 22year-old athlete from
Texas A. and NJ erased the record
of 6 feet 6 inches established by
Harold Osborne of Illinois il, 1922.
Osborne, now an assistant coach
at his alma mater, was among the
5000 spectators thrilled by Watkins
performance and was quick to con-
graduate him.
Ralph Tate of Oklahoma A. and M
and Howard Debus of Nebraska, both
scoring doubles, shared high indi-
vidual honors with the record
breaking Watkins, while Illinois
lightning runners completely domi-
mated the relay events by winning
five of them in the two days of COM
petition.
Watkins, after breaking record
hung up before most of the athletes
competing in today's meet had been
born, made three vain attempts to
clear feet 9 inches. The tall Texas
youth, member of the SROTC, re-
ports next month to an officer candi-
date school.

CLEVELAND April "a. The
punchless Cleveland Indians came
to life with a 3-run rally in the
ninth inning today for a 3-to-2
triumph over the luckless Detroit
Tigers.
jeff Heath and the Tigers gen.
erosity played equal parts in the
triumph over Pitcher Hal White,
who had held the Tribesmen to
three lonesome singles.
Lou Boudreau and Hank Ed
wards opened the Tribe half with
one-basers and Ken Keltner sac
rificed. Then Heath drove a long
single to the right center corner
OF the park, tying the score and
retiring White in favor of Johnny
Corsica.
The Detroit relief finger got his
erstwhile teammate, Roy Cullen
bine, on a grounder, as Heath ad-
vanced to second, but with two
down Otto Denning reached first
and jeff took third as Jimmy
Bloodworth fumbled Dennings'
grounder.
Ray Mack was at bat, and Bou-
dreau called for a double steal.
Denning broke for second base. Paul
Richards, Tiger catcher, bluffed a
throw there and attempted to trap
Heath off third-but hit Jeff on the
head. The oval bounded into left
and Heath dashed home with the
tally which gave Cleveland two
to-one advantage in the series.
Until then, it appeared that the
Indians Vernon Kennedy was oc-
cupying the mound for practice
purposes. The Indians showed no
signs of hitting and Detroit had
picked up single runs in the first
