NEW YORK, July 8.-They are
at it again-those fellows who
must argue sports questions to
which there are no precise an
swers. This time the debate re-
wolves around whether young Bob
Matthias is a greater athlete than
old Jim Thorpe was.
Four years ago at London,
Matthias, then only II and a high
school student. won the Olympic
decathlon title. In doing so, he
Dettered five marks Thorpe hung
up in winning the event at Stock
holm in 1912 and tied the Indian
in a sixth. Thorpe was "a at the
time.
Last week Matthias, now grow
ing 81. won the Olympic decathlon
tryouts again. This time he sur
passed the Indians marks in nine
events-and compiled so many
points he breke the American rec
ord even before toeing the mark
in the tenth.
How They Compare.

They raised the question of

Judge Pine offered the Interior
Department a chance to get a
ruling on its claim to control of
the Fairgrounds here. He asked
Government lawyers whether they
sought affirmative relief-whether
they wanted him to decide on the
validity of the claim. The lawyers
did not ask for such a ruling. In
that situation he ruled only on
the citizens complaint. He granted
