U. S. WILL SEND
 STRONG SQUAD,
 OLYMPIC GAMES
By CHARLES CHAMBERLAIN

By CHARLES CHAMBERLAIN
 EVANSTON, III, Jly 13 R-The 50 track and field athletes selected over the weekend represent one of the strongest squads in U. s. history for the Olympic games. But the story of those who failed is as big as that of those who won.
 For the fist time since America has been sending it's stars to the Clympics, three of the oountry's greatest will not compete in their specialties when the big show starts July 29 in London.
 They are fellows whose reputa- tions have made them among the most familiar names in the nations sports picture-Chuck Fonville, Gil Dodds and Harrison billiard.
 The first two will not make the trip at all. billiard will go as dash man, having failed to qualify for the high hurdles, in which he has beer virtually invincible for year
 Despite these blows, head coach Dean Cromwell predicts that the U. s. will win seven or eight firsts for sure" with good chances in a total of IA events.
 Dodds, the peer of U. s. milers, pulled an Achilles tendon as was not even present at the tryouts Friday and Saturday.
 Fonville, the 1.-the Negro from Michigan, probably was the greatest disappointment. His prodigious toss of 58 feet F inch is up for official rec ognition as a world record But in the tryouts, the champion shotputter finished fourth in his bracket with 54 feet IS inches.

AMERICANS BEAT MATS.
 BIG GA N E
By AUSTIN BEALMEAR

SPORTSMAN PARK, St. Louis, July 13.-tR-Vic Raschi singled home two big runs and hurled three scorless innings today to lead the American League to a 5-2 tri- umph over its National League ri- vals in the 18th annual All-Star baseball game, finished in the rain
 The New York Yankee right handler came up with the bases loaded in the fourth frame and pounded cut a single into the left field for the two runs which broke a 2-2 deadlock and earned him the honor of being the win ming pitcher in his first All-Star appearance.
 It was a sad disappointment for the National Leaguers, who had hoped to score their first All-Star victory since 1914 against an American League lineup shot full of holes by mid-season injuries. Instead, the junior circuit, after spotting it's rivals two runs in the first inning, stormed from be- hind to rack up it's third straight triumph and 1lth in the interleague series.
 Score by innings:

BEAU JACK
 L0SES TO
 WILLIAMS
By RALPH BERNSTEIN

PHILADELPHIA, July l3-lR-Ike Williams finally found an opponent who didn't know what it meant to backtrack and the string bean kid from Trenton, N. J., used him as a medium to prove he's a great light weight champion.
 Williams scored a six-round tech nical knockout last night over Beau Jack, windmill-swinging former shoeshine boy who sought to make boxing history by becoming the first fighter ever to win the same title three times Each fighter entered the ring at 134 pounds.
 A disappointing crowd of 12,- 952 paid $83,787 at Shibe Park and saw the ever-advancing Jack swarm all over the champion in the early rounds. Williams, jabeing and coun- punching, simply waited pa tiently for an opening.
 In the sixth, the champion caught Jack with left hook and, batter ing him with countless rights and lefts, pinned him against the ropes. Ike looked to referee Charley Dag |gert to stop it but he said no. | Jack wanted to fall but he couldn't and finally Daggert step ped in and stopped the fight.
 The battle had been fairly even to that point.
 Williams said he planned to con- tinue fighting as a lightweight discounting runners he would cam raign for Ray Robinson's welter- weight diadem.

Juvenile Court judge
Talks To OAR Chopter

AT the luncheon meeting of the
Janet M on tg me ry Chapter,
Daughters of the American Revol-
ution, held at the home of Mrs.
Lulu W. Francis, in Grafton St.,
Chevy Chase, Judge Alfred D.
Noyes, Judge of the Juvenile Court
at Rockville, was the guest speak
er.
In his address, Judge Moves
spoke of his Court as a children's
court, not criminals court, as the
children are never regarded as
criminals. He said that most chill
dren who break the law have no
religious training. They come for
the most part from homes, either
where they are victims of over
indulgence or homes where they
are neglected and where the home
is dependent on outside aid. Thus
there are two classes of children,
those who present the problem Of
behavior and those who are neg
lected and dependent. There are
at present two hundred children in
foster homes, where they are TAX
en- care of by the County organiza-
tions. There is the work of rehabi-
litating the homes, by working
with the parents. If there is drunk
nessee in the home, this problem
is dealt with, by taking the chill
dren away from the parents and

dealing directly with the parents.
One of the main objects of the
Juvenile Court is getting the child
from the influence of neglected
homes before the delinquency
develops. Judge Noyes emphasized
the fact that the training schools
are not penal institutions; they
are provided with workshops and
recreational programs. He said
that the child who is influenced
by the Comic books, the Crime
stories and the Radio Crime pro-
grams, is usually one who is emo
tionally unstable. There is no
doubt but that these three influ-
ences do have a certain effect on
all children, but if the child is
trained properly, he will show no
effect.
