Hungary Hai Olympic Stadium, Amster- dam, Aug. 4.—(AP)—Winning the third elimination heat in the 400 meters relay in the remark- ably fast time of 41 1-5 seconds, only 1-5 second slower than the world’s record, the American team, composed of Frank Wy- koff, Jimmy Quinn, Charley Borah and Henry Russell, com- pletely outclassed their ficld here today. Russell finished 15 yards ahead of the Hungarian anchorman, with Switzerland, Japan and Turkey strung out in that order. Olympic Stadium, Amsterdam, Aug. 4— (AP) —Finland added another to its list of Olympic running victories today when Toivo Loukola won the 3000- meter steeplechase champion- ship, with?Paavo Nurmi second. Willie Ritola quit. It was the second beating in two days for Nurmi, who pre- viously had not heen defeated in an Olympic final since 1920, Yesterday Ritola beat him for the 5000-meter championship, but today the New York Finn, although defending his cham- pionship, could nct keep up the pace, and dropped out. The victory marked Finland's fourth championship of the Olympic games thus far, all be- ing, in runnnig events, espite defeat of their two fa- vorites, Nurmi and Ritola, Fin- land placed one, two, three. Loukola defeated Nurmi by 50 yards, with Ove Anderson third. The two Americans, W. 0. Spencer and Mel Dalton, badly beaten, brought up the rear in seventh and eighth positions. Loukola’s time was 9 minutes 21 4/5 seconds, which broke the Olympic record by nearly 12 sec- onds. Ritola set the mark at 9:33 3/5 at the last games. Finland picked up 19 points on the United States as a result of its sweeping victory in the steeplechase. The Americans, with 142 for the events decided thus far, still enjoyed a com- fortable lead, but the Finnish total had suddenly risen from 64 to 83. a Sweden, by getting three org in the steeplechase, went tie for third with Great Britain with 40, and France in- creased its total from 10 points to 13.

Legitimate Debut [BLAISDELL GROUP JACK, ESTELLE TO GET WEEKLY PAY OF $12,000 Jack Is Warned by Broadway Followers to Never At- tempt Acting DEMPSEY GETS $10,000 ‘It’s a Laugh—My Being an Actor,’ He Says, But He Likes Work BY HORTENSE SAUNDERS (NEA Service Writer) New York, Aug. 4.—Jack Dempsey has gone Thespian—he is in rehears- als now for his forthcoming Broad- way debut in drama. But if Jack follows the advice of Broadway well- wishers, he never will try to learn how to act. “Be yourself. Play Jack Demnsey. That’s the character the public wants to see,” are the instructions with which Jack is commencing his career in “legitimate.” ¥ The producers of Jack’s first show, “The Big Fight,” have agreed to pay the ex-champion and his wife, Es- telle Taylor, just 12,000 berries a week. Jack’s. share of this is esti- mated at $10,000—all for “being himself,” not for acting. Less Valuable If He Could Act To be sure, this proves that an ex- champion's time isn’t quite so valu- able as a champion’s, for at this rate it will take Jack a year, playing six nights a week and two matinees, to make as much as Tunney made in half an hour at the Yankee Stadium the other night. But what is an ex- champion to co? And the Broadway crowd will tell you that ten grand a week isn’t to be sniffed at. In fact, if Jack could act, he wouldn’t be worth anywhere near that much, Which shows how profitable person- ality can be. ‘ Jack’s initial rehearsal was an in- teresting event. For he cowed, scared, stage frightened, beaten to a frazzle. The perspiration that came out frequently on his brow wasn’t due to the heat, because it wasn't hot. yp dash and Estelle sat close togeétheron ike babes in the woods, keeping their eyes:on their scripts or on the director, who sat at a table just in front of them.

He coughed and cleared his throat. Estelle patted his arm ly. A good sponging off, such. as‘'a fighter gets between rounds, would :have: helped him im- mensely! He jabbed a little, and feinted, and finished his sentence. Figuratively, he had been knocked out. The Broadway actors, supposed to be a fight crowd, were right there with the goods. They might not have been able to give a knockout blow to a cat, but they could put the bravado in. their voices and their poses. Holding a script with one hand, they could gesture wildly with the other. Jack’s face recitered admiration. He was just a big, good-natured fel- low, wondering how’ they ‘got that way. ae > eet SS In the- cast also is Ralph Smith, heavyweight boxer from California, who will fight Jack in his Broad- way engagement. There will be three rounds of actual fighting in the show. When asked how his memory wi Jack replied honestly: ‘Rotten. don’t see how I'll ever learn the lines. Of course, the fight part is swell. T'll go in training for that—do my road work and gym every morning, and Smith and I can box together. But the lines are different.” Love? That's No Trouble The love part di “Sure,” he laughed, love scene. I’m going to emote ail over the place.

Linton Juniors Defeated by Mitchell in Regional South Dakotans Take Advan-| tage of Hits and Errors, Scoring 11 in 6th Inning to Cinch Game; Mitchell Meets St. Paul for Title Today Minneapolis, Minn, Aug. 4—@)— Mitchell, champion of South Dakota, was a slight favorite to win the regional title of the American Le- ion Junior Baseball tournament ere today in the final game with St. Paul. Both teams won victories in the first round yesterday. Mitchell eliminated Linton, North Dakota, by the overwhelming score of 16 to 4, and the John de Paro ee of St. Paul sidetracked the Milwaukee, Wis., entry, 6 to 4. Mitchell Attack Powerful Mitchell showed a powerful at- tack in triumphing over the North Dakotans. After:a fairly even con- test for five innings, Mitchell com- bined errors, bases on balls and hits to score eleven runs in the sixth to assure victory. $i St. Paul came from behind in the last three innings to win from Mil- waukee. Two runs in the ninth turned the tide in favor of the jaints. Today's contest is scheduled to start at 3:30 p.m. = Except for the sixth inning, the two Dakota teams played a fairly close contest, the Linton squad was ilty of considerable amount of foose fielding, and, that contributed to its downfall.’ ‘k of control by Volk and Heisler also aided the Mit- chell players in registering scores. Scores 11 Runs Leading four to‘one, at the start of the sixth, Mitchell took advantage of five bases on balls, four Linton errors and four base hits, to dent im. | the rubber 11 times before the side was retired. McDonald, Mitchell second baseman, led the batting at- tack in that inning by knocking in three runs with a double and single. Linton came back to score two runs in the last half of the inning, and each team added another in the seventh, upon the completion of | which inning the game was called. Fogle, Linton shortstop, played well defensively, and also drove in a pair of runs with a timely single in the sixth, Gt The victor in the championship clash Saturday will be sent by the American Legion to Denver, where it will compete for sectiona] honors late this month.

INDIANS BEAT SAINTS TWICE Chicago, Aug. 4.—(®)—The In- dianapolis Indians have given St. Paul a costly lesson on how they rammed their way to the top of the American Association pennant race. The lesson was bunching hits. Although outhit in both contests, the Indians won a doubleheader from the Saints yesterday, 5 to 2 and 3 to 2. The double win increased their leadership to three and a half games, and St. Paul dropped from a third place tie’ with Minneapolis to fourth place. < . St. Paul bagged 11 hits during the first game, to Indianapolis’ 8, but the Indians sewed up the game by pushing across all their five runs in the first and third innings. In the nightcap the Saints got eight hits, to seven by the Indians. Swe- tonic hurled the opener for the In- dians, and Leverett performed in the second. . Milwaukee also won a twin vic- tory yesterday, over the Columbus Senators, 6 to 3 and 6 to 4, but it was heavy hitting that did the trick. The Brewers got 11 hits in the opener and 15 in the second. The de- feat sank the Senators deeper into the mire of the last place. Kansas City waited until the last four innings to attack, and_ then sorred. all its runs to defeat Toledo 6 tol.

GIANTS SCRAP TO MAKEGAIN ON CARDINALS New York Clan, Potentially Fifth Team in Strength, Is Still Second (By the Associated Press) _ John McGraw’s teams in the Na- tional league long have been noted for their bullgog courage, and the Giants of 1928 are no exception. Some critics have rated all four western clubs as potentially stronger than the €lan McGraw, but the standing shows the Giants in second place nevertheless, and still within striking distance of the St. Louis Cardinals. The Cards, it is true, hold a commanding lead of six and a half games, but notwithstanding the great ball they’ve red for two Qonths they have unable to Shake the Giants off completely. Most of the Cardinals’ margin over New York is on the winning side of the ledger. In losing games the Giants trail only by four contests. Cubs Are Third The Chicago Cubs moved into third place by taking over the Brooklyn Dodgers 8 to 5, a seven- run rally in the third settling the issue. Del Bissonette cracked out two triples, two singles, and drew a Peet in five trips to the plate. ‘he Pittsburgh Pirates tightened their hold on fifth place by crushing the Phillies again, 14 to 6. Pie Traynor got three singles and a pair of doubles in six chances. The Cards lost no ground, for Sherdel held the Boston Braves to five hits and beat them 5 to 1. A temperature of 95 degrees was too much for Virgil Barnes, Braves’ pitcher, and he retired from the game in a state of semi-collapse after five innings. Twenty-three balls were caught by the outfielders, George Harper snaring seven of them. The American league race re- mained in statu quo, as the New York Yankees end Philadelphia Ath- letics both lost. Gray Blanks Yanks The Yanks were shut out by Sam Gray and the St. Louis Browns 8 to 0, Gray held the champions to five hits, and for the second day in a Tow Babe Ruth went hitless.
