He first stepped into the national picture last winter by placing sec- ond behind Sam Allen in the 65- meter high hurdles at the indoor championships. Dan Ferris, the AAU official had him compete in the indoor ' nationals for the first time on the strength of a perform- ance in which he established a new hurdle mark for some obscure dis- tance. He showed enough in chas- /ing Allen across the finish line to stamp him a comer. At the Texas relays early in April Tolmich won the 100-yard dash and then romped over the high hurdles ahead of the field. Those victaries definitely established him as a star. He followed his Texas efforts with several excellent showings, and on one occasion at the Michigan State Edythe Young returned to Ju-!'championship meet won four in- neau aboard the Aleutian after a visit in Ketchikan. dividual events and topped it off with a 49-second quarter on the first leg of Wayne University’s win- ning relay team. The most impressive perform- ance of all was, of course, the victory over Spec Towns, the Olympic champion and world record holder, in the high hurdles at Milwaukee. ;Towns had a string of 57 consecu- tive victories before Tolmich out- stepped him for the national crown. In winning the low hurdles Wayne | University’s one-man track team! clipped one-tenth of a second off Heye Lambertus’ meet mark of 23.4 to become the first man to win a National AAU hurdles double since |Steve Anderson turned the trick in 1929.

His performance was the 89th in diamond history ‘and the second no-hitter of this big league season.

More rain than base- hits fell yesterday as Ed Brandt| jand Mace Brown pitched shutout ‘bnll for the Pirates in the first game and Al Smith’s five-hit pitching won the second for the Giants. Phil- adelphia took both games of its double-header from the sinking Cards. In the American League, Lou Gehrig clouted his 29th homer to start the Yanks’ scoring, thén doub-. led and carried home the winning run against St. Louis. Pete Apple- ton limited the Chicago White Sox to three hits to give Washington a shutout victory, while Jack Wil- son upset Detroit, letting the Tigers down with only five hits as Boston evened the series. Cleveland continued its drive toward the first division by handing the Athletics a second consecutive defeat.
