The showing made by our javelin®hurlers at the final tryouts at Cambridge Was Woefully weak. Fromi the press box, it looked«e= though Welchell Neufeldt and Priester were handling their javelines rather \elumnsily,, and all had trouble with the line from behind, which they were required to throw. “Bud” Houser figures in the discus throw, too, but we are weak in this evant, and might as well admit. it.

SENATORS AT LAST ROMP ON YANKEE CLAN By JOHN B. FOSTER (Copyright, 1924 The Casper Tribune) NEW YORK, June 27.—Washing- ton is trating sweet revenge for the first tie in years. Not only have the Senators climbed into the Ameri- can League leadership by an almost comfortable margin—but they did it at the expense of the world cham- pion Yankees, battering the lordly New Yorkers down to a tle for third place in the process. If there is one team in the league which, above all others, bas been cold poison to Washington, it is the Yankees, When all other teams oc- ¢asionally lost a game to Washing- ton, the Yanks frequently won every- thing from Washington. Whenever a Senatorial head popped up, noth- ing pleased the Yanks more than to wallop it. And now Washington a waljloped the Yanks for an entire series. Washington had its greatest pro- miso of recent years in 1921, They played well all that season. Their lowest week-end standing for the sea- son was fifth place and for 13 con- place, But they were lacking in that place. But they wr lacking in that somthing called punch which is need- ed to carry a team on to victory. This year’s Washington club is a better team than the team of 1921. Tt.also is a better tearm than they had last year. They have not the massive punch of the Clevelands or the St. Louls Browns, but they are alert and hitting better all of the time and with good pitching they will make some of the American League teams watch them disappear in the distance—because they have found ouf they can win. ‘That is tho greatest discovery a ball club can make, Some clubs gé for years without findl, it o Call the Tribune berore you start on that trip. vhysees Lenglen plays an even game unpar- alelled by other payers, Draw your own conclusion Under a Paris date line with the heading “Uruguay's Sporting Spirit," one reads: 4 “This team (the Uruguay soccer team) showed great. sporting spirit by refusing to kick outside when their goal was threatened, or to play for time.’” in the. game in which they defeated the Americans 3 to 0, And so little Uruguay won a& double victory in the eyes of the nations over there. It is sincerely to be hoped that the American Olympic team will make a similar record. But if it is a choice between good sports- manship and victory, by all meana let u have sportsmanship. ‘That, in the long run, is far more important.
