There are no better examples than the two Japanese boys, Shu- bel Nishinda and Chubei Nambu, nimble sons of a country that is fighting gallantly for its place in the athletic sun. Nishida was the only pole-vaul- ter with a chance to break the American monopoly. He had never done better than 13 feet seven inches at home, a mark at which most American stars begin to take off their shirts and get down to serious work. Un- awed, however, Nichida kept pace as the Olympic bar went up to 13 feet 9, then 13-11 and finally 14 feet. Alone he fought it out with Bill Miller after Graber and Jeffer- son, the other Americans failed, and Miller had to break the world record, clearing 14 feet, 1% inches, to shake off the Japanese boy. Nambu, after failing to win the broad jump, for which he holds the world record, came back two days later to capture the hop, step and jump with a world record performance. His captain and 1928 Olympic champion, Mikio Oda, was too severely handicapped by a leg in- jury to qualify. When a Sweae cleared over 50 54 game, sent the Dodger <1ugger‘rect, it was strictly up to Nambu, and you have never seen such frantic waving of the sunflag as there was after the Japanese came tearing along at a tremendous fi- nal effort to negotiate 51 feet, 7 inches. Finland has had its fling, Ger- many will build mightily for the 1936 Olympics in Berlin, but watch the Japanese from now on, espe- cailly if they bid successfully for the 1940 games.
