BRINGING UP FATHER ELEAROR FINSHED FIETH 13 THE IOO-METER * BAC STROCE /N HE™ The Major Leagues may have been a trifle jittery over the busi- s for 1932, in advance way, but the first few ve heen reassuring to the thanks mainly to the swdden display of winning form tof such erstwhile rear-guard out- fits as Cincinnati, Detroit, the Chicago White Sox, Philadelphia Nationals and Boston Braves. Frem the box-office viewpoint, nothing could be sweeter than he early showing of the under- o especially in towns where e gate receipts fell off so sub- stantially as they did in Detroit % ind Cincinnati last year. The nation-wide iffterest in # baseball appears no less than ever. Babe Ruth's minor aches andl pains, as well as his home runs, remain front page news in the sports ex- tras. The box scores are being studied with more enthusiasm, at least than the stock market tabu- lations. It's a spring tonic to hear the - old arguments popping up again about Grove and TFerrell, Simmons and Ruth, Grimes and . Wilson. MARATHONERS ODD LOT Paul de Bruyn's sensational vic- jory over the best American mara- thoners in the Boston road classic is far from being a fluke. You may recall that these col- umns some time ago pointed to the slcw but nevertheless steady ad- vance of this 24-year-old German boy, whose one mission in life , now seems to be to capture the Olympic marathon for the good old fatherland. Marathon running has to be next door to an obsession for its parti- cipant to get anywhere. Success generally means the devotion of the better part of a man’s ath- letic lifetime. As we have re- marked before, the Finns, best of all distance running dlans, don’c thing much of a marathon candi- date until he gets around 40 years of age. - N | De Bruyn's rise at so early an age, therefore, is remarkable tes- timony to the faithfulness of the training and concentration over the past few years. He is 12 years younger than Paavo Nurmi. & who also has his heart set on 1926 OLyMPic AEel. (), TH’URSDAY, MAY 5, 1932.

ROBLETO WINNER OVER DUMAGUILAS, SIX ROUND FIGHT SEATTLE, May 5.—Canto Rob- leto, of Los Angeles, California bantamweight champion, pounded out a smashing decision over Ros Dumaguilas, of Manila, in a six rounder here last night. Robleto weighed 120% pounds and Dumaguilas ~weighed 121 pounds, RUGGED FOOTBALL STAR BREAKS HIS. CAN'T CHANGE COLORS Some of the experts suggested that de Bruyn, after running for his native land this summer at Los Angeles, may take out citizen- ship papers and return the com- pliment by running for the Unit- ed States in the 1936 Olympics n Berlin. This would be a good trick, if he would do it, but the Olympic rules quite clearly prevent an ath- lete representing one mnation from ever competing for another coun- try. Jimmy Henigan, the loose-gait- ed New Englander who followed de Bruyn to the finish in front of the Boston A. A. clubhouse, apparently will be the No. 1 U. 8. hope in the; Olympics. He, too, has improved with age, though it now appears doubtful that the old master him- | | | self, Clarence De Mar, will be able to qualify for the American team, |with only two places left to fill.
