Press Staff Correspondent) LONDON, June 9 (United Press). —With the exception of the boxing and cross-country teams, the British Olympic competitors have not yet been chosen, and the field and track contestants will not be! finally se- lected until after the Amateur Ath. letic_champlonships on June 20 and 21, However, the ‘British Olympic as- sociation reckons’ on sending to Paris a team nunibering some 400 competitors, a number in excess of all previous efforts. This, despite the comparative lack of interest in Olympics in this country and’ the disinelination of many of the @ov- erning bodies of the various branches of sport to select teams at the bidding of the British Olympic association. Among all the nations competing in the Olympiads, Britain, for many years reckoned as the cradle of sport, is the worst organized. The British Olympic association is a relatively helpless body, which does nothing but supply funds and ar- range hotel accommodation for competitors, and receives very lttle support from the various govern- ing bodies of British sport. The different governing bodies are old-standing institutiohs, while the British Olympic association is com- paratively a newcomer. And none of the governing bodies !s willing to concede the B. O. A. any sort of jurisdiction over thelr own particu- lay branch of sport, And there is no possible way of enforcing the authority of the body responsible for the turning out of an interna- tional team to represent Great Britain at the Olympic games. Some bodies flatly refuse to have any- thing to do with the Olympics, Britain will doubtless be strongly represented at polo, because the games happen to coincide with the height of the British polo season, and. it is not very far to send to Paris. However, the polo author- ities indicated very plainly that the International trial matches for the forthcoming England vs. America matches at Meadowbrook, as wellas the Hurlingham, Ranelagh and Roe- hampton challenge cups and cham- pionships, -were of far more im- portance than Olympic polo, and they even managed to secure a postponement of the original date to fit in with the biggest British home matches, For the other branches of sport, England will have to rely mainly on individual enthusiasm, rather than colleetive work. The Amateur Athletic association, somewhat tardily, undertook raising a team, but insisted that the National cham- pionships must take precedence, All through the winter,-and_ spring hundreds of enthusiasts have been training privately, and since the spring renders serious training.pos. sible, the parent body has under- taken officlal supervision of all ar- rangements. Several leading athletes are prac- tleally certain of selection to repre- gent Britain at Paris. These in- clude: D. G. A. Lowe, the Cambridge diamond, 2:30 p. m. Cc.

Merchants versus Fordsons QUESTION—Ground rule is made that te runner may take one base on passed ball but he has to make it, With a man on third and two strikes on the batter the catcher misses the next pitched ball. It hits the umpire. The runner on third comes home but the umpire sends him back to third. Was he right in his decision? ANSWER—The umpire was wrong Rule 64 section 7 says that if a pitched ball strikes the person or clothing of an umpire the ball shall be considered in play. The tore runner or runners may advance and make all the bases they can, QUESTION—Please give me the professional history of Charles Rob- ertson and are the Sox strong enough to ete any chance to win ENGLAND TO SEND | 400 TO OLYMPICS BASEBALL IN CASPER TODAY Elks versus Layoye, high school park at 2 p. m, Standard versus Legion high school park at 4 p. m.

Abra- hams, sprint champion and long: jumper; G. M. Butler, Cambridge university quarter-miler; H. B. Stalard, Cambridge university halt- miler, and E. Tatham, Cambridge university hurdler, Of Abrahams, it is contended that he could win anything in which he competes, and no record is safe from him. In the 100 and 200 yards and meters, he has an astonishing list of pérformances, and his long jumps, under any sort of conditions, are equally impressive. Tatham fully expects to capture the 440- yards hurdles, while Butler and Stal- lard are capable of anything. Stal lard is making a specialty of the 800 meters but will probably also compete for the 1,500 meters. Britain's participation in the Olymple cross-country race will de- pend upon whether the National Cross-Country union is satisfied that the course is suitable for ~ British runners. However, a tentative team has been selected, including Cor- poral-Signaler W. M. Cotterell, ‘the British army champion; EB, Hafper and J. E, Webster, who finished first, second and third in the Na- tional Cross-Country champlonships this year. Gotterell ia one of the finest cross-country runners Britain has had for many years. / Meanwhile training operations are |’ in full swing at the Crystal Palace and the Shepherd's Bush Stadium, London, and in various others cen- ters, and many enthusiasts are com- peting-for the honor of inclusion in the Olympic team, The Amateur Athletic association is tolerably pose, that England w!l cut a fair figure In the. field and track events. cr SCORING FOR PARIS GAMES IS OUTLINED PARIS, June 9.—(By the As: sociated Press)—The Olympic au- thorities decided today that in scor- ing the athletic events during the big week of July 5-13, 10 points will be given for first place, five for second, four for third, three for fourth, two for fifth, and one for sixth. This method {s regarded in Ameri- can Olympic circles as advantag- eous to Finland's chances. The Finnish team 1s believed to be al- most certain of six or seven places. —————— One Chicago hospital has estab- shed an emergency hospital ward especially for victims of auto accl- dents.

Bartley seems to relate to Wills’ hands—how they will fare when they come in contact with Madden's harveyized steel dome. “Anyone would think,” moaned Madden, “that I have not got any hands of my own. There will be more to this bout than Wills going around me like a barrel maker iround a keg, I expect to do some hammering on m own account— and I'm not ‘worrying about my hands, either.’ Fight fans are an optimistic class. pite the prospects that the Queensboro stadium will be put out of business, only about 30 per cent of those who had paid $40,000 for tickets to this show tried to turn thelr pasteboards in.
