NEW YORK, Jan. 26-LRi-Jesse Owens, who in one blazing after noon broke five world records and tied sixth and then went on to win four Olympic gold medals emerged today in the APs mid century sports poll as the greatest track athlete of the era since 1900.
 The tall Negro sprinter received POI votes from the nations sports editors and sportscasters. dim Thorpe, the versatile Indian who won the Olympic decathlon in 1912 only to lose his honors on profes- sional charges, was second with "A Thorpe has already won the AP poll as the greatest football player Third place was close between Paavo Nur1ni, Finnish distance run her, with 31 votes, and Glenn Cunningham, the American distance ace, with 30.
 
 Literally hundreds of thousands of athletes have tried, to smash standard world track records, but never before-nor since-did one man accomplish so much in SC short a space as Owens did on May 25, 1885, in the Big Ten track meet at Ann Arbor, Mich.
 Competing for Ohio State Uni versity, he tied the 100 yard re- cord at :09.4, and set new world marks of :203 for 22O yards, :22.t for the 22O yard low hurdles, anc 26 feet SA inches for the broad jump.
 Since 200 meters is a trifle shorter than 220 yards, Owefs' times 1T the 220 yard dash and 220 yarc hurdles also were accepted as worlc records at the metric distances. Al these astounding records were for. mally accepted as internationa standards.
 STAR AT CLYMPICS
 Then Owens became the brightes star of the 1886 Olympic games at Berlin, winning the 100 and 20( meters, the broad jump, and run. ming a leg on the victorious 40l meter relay team.
 ''The greatest. thrill of my life, Owens called those Olympic vic tories.
 At Berlin Owens was the center of an international argument Tn; race-conscious Germans obviously did not like tbe idea of an Aneri- can Negro overshadowing theil Nordic heroes. Adolf Hitler man. aged to be on hand to congratulate some of the German winners, but he was never around for any ol the victory ceremonies that centerec on the swift Owens.

them for her by the gallons. But
I do know that blackberries make
the very finest jams. jellies. pre-
serves and wine. They are also
fine to can and use for pies.
May I suggest that any one
