Haegg Fit for Flat 4
In Mile if Extended,
Anderson Claims
By the Associated Press.

~ the Associatsd Press.
NEW YORK, July 12-Arne
Anderson, Swedish school teacher
who lowered the time for the mile
to 4:02.6, believes that II he could
have reached his present peak a
year ago he would have chased
Gunder Haegg, now in the United
States, to the tabled 4-minute clock
ing. -
Anderson, who was drafted" into
his first distance race by his school
eight years ago, is certain that he
doesn't have the equipment to reach
that goal himself, but that Haegg
could If he is extended. t
And the school teacher wouldn't
be bit surprised If United States
athletes wiped out his newest mark,
once they have learned the technic

Both Anderson and Haegg, who

steps on the cinders for a spin more
than once a week, preferring long
jaunts through forests and meadows
instead. .-
'In my opinion" Anderson said
last week before weather conditions
fouled his attempt to wipe out
Haegg's world 1.500-meter mark, "if
long distance runners in the United
States would train on cross-country
workouts I believe they would be
much faster"
Haegg quickly forsook New York
and its cinder paths for the noun

upon his arrival and has been VIC

States had to offer
Doubts He Can Beat Haegg.
The school teacher, who weighs
155 pounds and is 5 feet 10 inches
tall, is certain that If Haegg returns
to Sweden in good condition that
the two of them will revise the
record book this fall.
But I doubt that I could beat
Haegg If he is IN shape. He is a
natural runner and absolutely with
out nerves." said Anderson. He
added that finishing second to the
Gaevle fireman in all their meetings
last summer had left him with a
definite "Haegg complex" but said
he believed he had conquered it
with his 4:026 mile.

summoned Alex Carrasquel to the

Meanwhile, the Mats were getting

singled twice, but the only other
Nat to reach first base in the first

News was on its way today to
Capt. Fred J. Hughes, jr, noted
Washington horseman, now some
where in the Pacific theater OF
operations, that Mrs. Hughes
equally famous Washington eques-
trienne, celebrated her return to
the city by winning, with Jackie
Warren's Yankee Doodle. the jumper
championship at the North End
Horse Show.
Mrs. Hughes recently brought the
gray son of Liz Whitney's Bon Mutt
from Fort Bliss, Tex, where he won
every jumper event he entered ir
Texas shows.
Beats Synarchy in Jumpoff.
Yankee Doodle started slowly yes
terday due to the soft going and the
change of climate, but won enough
minor awards plus a first in the
modified Olympia to tie with
points for the championship with
Mrs. F. Stones Synarchy, ridder
throughout the show by 1t. Walter
Kees of the Navy. In the jumpofl
it was Yankee Doodle who came tc
town and took the top honors.
North Ends show revealed that
horse owners will strive to keep the
game going, despite wartime diff
culties. The large number OF entries
several from out of town, evidenced
their keen interest.
A noted champion from Warren
ton, Mrs. E. Douglas Primes Pappy
was ridden by Sergt. Alex Calvert
and after a battle royal with Capt
Alvin Kay's 1912 Upperville 3-year-
old champion, No Mistake, took the
hunter tricolor with 1914 points tc
1917.
Pappy won the model hunter, hack
and hunter and working hunter and
placed second in the open hack and
women's hunter
No Mistake Takes Two Blues.
Capt. Kay, on duty at Fort Robin
son, Ark, left his stable of top horses
in the expert hands of Gardner
Hallman. who rode No Mistake to
two blues and several minor awards
and also piloted Kay's open jumper
Smacko to seconds in the modified
Olympia and the warmup and put
another Kay entry, Applejack, In
the ribbons.
In the handicap jumper, Judge
Otto F'urr gave Virginia Briggs
Yankee Clipper his first blue ribbon
and in the open jumper A. G.
Earnest's Dickey Boy with Al Earnest
up was pinned the winner.
Winning the women's hunter over
Pappy was a big triumph for An
gelina Carabelli's Our Day, with Mrs
Gardner Hallman in the saddle.

took second and third in the model

The Arnly-Navy game, annual
super-spectacle of the college
football season which was whit
tied down to small-town size last
year, stands a good chance OF
being whitfield down this year
to no game at all.
In authentic, but unquotable
sources, it was said today the
service game which has been
quietly scheduled for November
27 at West Point faces so much
official opposition it is more than
likely to be just another broken

trail for loud Leo through July
August and September, however
and when winter collides with
spring, Durocher is certain to be
seeking other employment.
A manager who can't keep his
players in line isn't likely to be a
manager very long, but the man.
ayers who haven't been able to keep
Newsom in line are numerous. The
fellow always felt training rules
were for "a other fellows on the
squad. If Newsom accused Bragan
of losing game for him, 1t WASH t
the first time he's belittled a team
mate. Last. season with Washing
ton, Newsom had woefully incom-
petent infield behind him and
whenever Buck dropped decision,
he'd mutter the Mats int1eld was
numbering him.
Buck Beefed With Nuts
That infield, which found Ellis
Clary at second base, spot he
never had played; Bob Repass and
Jimmy Pofahl at shortstop, and
Bobby Estalella and Roy Cullenbine
at third base, also hampered other
Washington pitchers considerably
but they didn't register complaints.
NeWsom has seen a lot of geogra-
ply since entering baseball. He's
hot to handle, so he's been un-
loaded more than Tobacco Road
stage scenery. His courage is un-
questioned. He has pitched with a
broken kneecap, with broken
thumb and after being socked SOL
idly on the jaw by a ball thrown
by strong armed Ossie Bluege, but
Buck also has worn his welcome
thin in several cities with his con-
slant popping of and ignoring
of curfews.
Now big Buck is the center OF a
turbulent scene. He has brought
to head a situation that has been
fostering for while and the
leagues umpires and players prob
ably are smirking at the circum-
stances. Durocher is the fellow
who poured it on umpires and op-
posing players when he was riding
high.
Leo is about to take terrific
kicking around. In midseason
Durocher finds his own players and
the st. Louis Cards stacked against
him. Newsom has won nine games
for the Dodgers, but Durocher prob
ably is regretting the day Brooklyn
bought him from the Mats.
