Saturday Ketz threw the weight out into the atmosphere 161 feet 7 7-8 inches, William Droegemueller of North- western university, closing his inter- collegiate competition, tied the rec- ord in the pole vault jointly held by himself and Chuck McGinnis of Wisconsin by clearing the bar at 13 feet 3 inches. George Simpson, the Ohio State sophomore speedster, was the high individual point winner, chalking up 10 points for the Buckeyes with vic- lenge with Kelly Simonson Singles Bi ‘Reds and Cubs Entrench at Card-Pirate Expense Carl Mays and Sheriff Blake Hurl Shutout Victories for National League Leaders— Hadley Turns Back Sena- tors—Browns Break Even by Downing Indians (By The Associated Press) Fine pitching performances by Carl Mi and Sheriff Blake have enabled Cincinnati and Chicago to strengthen their hold on first and second place in the Nationa! league Pennant race. Mays, who pitched his submarine slants in the American league for years, hurled the Reds to a 2 to 0 victory over the Cardinals at St. Louis yesterday. Bunched hits off Reinhart in the seventh and eighth accounted, for the Reds’ tallies, It was a costly victory for the league- leaders, however, for Red Lucas, ace of the eales staff, suffered a broken bone in his wrist during bat- ting practice. Forty thousand persons jammed Wrigley field to see Blake blank the Pittsburgh Pirates, 3 to C, granting five scattered safeties. It was Blake's fifth straight victory of the season. Two of the Cubs’ runs were driven in by Cliff Heathcote. Clyde Beck handled 10 assists and one put- out at short and Charlie Grimm 18 putouts at first base. Giants in Third Place The New York Giants moved into third place by nosing out the Phils in both ends of a double bill. Ott’s single scoring Roush gave McGraw’s clan the first game in the eleventh inning, 5 to 4. It was Benton's eighth victory in 10 starts, all of them complete games. Don Hurst’s wild throw permitted Terry to score the winning run in the ninth inning of the night-cap, Virgil Barnes re- cording a 2 to 1 v:ctory. The Robins and Boston Braves di- vided_a double-header at Brooklyn. The Braves won the firs. game, 4 to 1, by bunching the five hits they got off three Dodger pitchers, Ed Brandt pitched effective ball for Hornsby’s club. Home runs by Del Bissonette and Harvey Hendrick aided Elliott to turn back the invad- ers in the nightcap, 8 to 3. Bisson- ette’s drive was his cight homer of the season. Hadley’s Work Sensational The best pitching of the day, how- ever, came in the American league. Hadley gave Philadelphia only two hits as the Washington Senators downed the Athletics, 4 to 1. Al- though practically hit-proof, Hadley was in constant trouble because of his generosity in handing out passes —seven to exact. Barnes fielded sensationally for the Senators, snaring cight flies in centerfield. The St. Louis Browns gained an even break in their series with the Indians by taking the last game, a free-hitting affair, 10 to 8. Uhle and Blaeholder were batted hard. Ted Lyons beat Elam Van Gilder in a pitchers’ battle at Chicago and the White Sox nosed out Detroit, 3 to 2. Lyons held the Tigers to four hits, one of them Fothergill’s home run in the fifth. Metzler and Bar- rett led the Sox attack. Babe Ruth hit a home run, two singles, walked once and struck out once as the New York Yankees beat York, of the New York-Pennsylvania league, in an exhibition game, 9 to 2. A.0.U. W. NINE BEATS HARMON Klein’s Powerful Poke, a Home tories in the 100-yard dash and the 220-yard event. Simpson was easily the class of the field'in the furlong, breasting the tape five yards in front of Stamats of Iowa, reeling off the distance in 21 4-10 seconds. He won the century in :09 8-10, lacking one-tenth of a second of t; ing the conference record to beat George Hester of Michigan, the Big Ten sprint champion, to the tape by two yards with Kriss, a teammate, finishing third. Yank Davis Cup Team Eliminates Chinamen Kansas City, May 28.—(@)—Win- ning the double. in straight sets here Saturday, the United States eliminated China in the third match of the International Davis cup ten- nis series.

Cambridge, Mud, rain and ] e combined track and field strength of more than a score of eastern colleges Saturday could not stop the brawny sons of Leland Stanford university from carrying off the Intercollegiate A. A. A. A. team championahip for the second straight year. Eleven Stanford athletes, led by the stalwart sophomore, Eric Krenz, piled up a total of 43 points to spread-cagle the field and win by the biggest margin any victorious team has had in 13 years. Yale, carrying the forlorn hopes of the east, finished second with 25 1-3 points, while Cornell and Penn State tied for third with 16 points apiece. Capturing four places and scoring altogether in eight of the 15 events, Stanford had a runaway of it from start to finish. It wasn’t close at any of the rain-swept finals. Highest Since 1917 Stanford’s winning total was the highest since 1917 when Cornell won with 47 points and the margin of 17 2-3 points over the second| place Yale aggregation was the big- gest since Cornell swamped the field in 1915, scoring 45 1-2 points to Harvard's 26. It was also the seventh time in eight years that the premier east- ern track and field college title has gone to the west coast. Southern California, which has won twice be- fore, and California, three times winner, were not in the running to- day. The Trojans, due to the with- drawal of their sprinting ace, Char- ley Borah, 1927 champion, and his running mate, Weldon Draper, picked up only six points. Cal fornia tallied five. Barbuti, Krenz Tie With the team title a one-sided af- fair, the battle for individual honors in the mud and rain held the in- terest of the soaked and scanty crowd of a few thousand. They saw a series of flashing performances, in spite of the wretched conditions, with Ray Barbuti, burly Syracuse captain and football star, emerging to share the chief individual glory with the equally stocky Eric Krenz. These two stocky athletes were the only double winners, Krenz was able to rest on his laurels of Friday, clinching first place in the shot put and discus with his record-breaking _ preliminary throws that no one was able to threaten Saturday, but Barbuti was forced to go out and earn his twin victories in the 220-yard dash and 440-yard run. The big Syracuse flyer beat out the Stanford captain, Emerson (Bud) Spencer, the favorite, by a yard in a thrilling finish in 43 8-10 seconds. Apparently none the worse for the wear and tear of this gruel- ing event. Barbuti came, back an hour and a half later to win the 220 with a sensational finish that over- came Barron Rockwell of Prince- ton in 22 5-10 seconds. ST.
