Runners Again Set World Record TWO MILE RELAY QUARTET DOES 7:42 IN PENN GAMES REGISTER SIXTH STRAIGHT VICTORY OVER YANKS, 8-7 I"cund Hoyt and Shocker Covey Fades Are Saved by Pinch Pitching of Fred Marberry in BY DENMAN Sports Editor, The Star.

As the score would indicate, Harris and his henchmen did not attain undisputed possession of the peak without considerable of a struggle, but there is no way for cold figtires to present an adequate idea of the eventu- the Nationals’ alities attendant big-town troupe. By literally lambasting Hoyt and Shocker of the five New York pitch- the Griffmen apparently had the zame sewed up with eight runs at the end of the fifth inning, as Cove- leskie in that period had allowed but + single tally. Stan showed evidence of weakening in the seventh, how- ever, when three aliens dented the fcounting block and the impression that Covey was fading became a con- viction with Harris in the eighth, when the Pole passed Gehrig and gave up a single to Pipp. He accord- ingly was yanked in favor of Gregg as a pall of shade fell over the en- closure. Another Battle of Wits. This was the signal for another battle of wits, which have come to he an_almost daily occurrence be- tween Harris and Huggins, The mite nanager ordered Shanks to bat for he lefthand-hitting Ernie Johnson and Bucky gained a point when Hank ned. Scott then connected for a ific drive to right center that Lei- bold all but snared after a sharp sprint, but which resolved itself into a hit that scored Gehrig. When Peck took O'Nelll's roller and threw wide to Harris in attempting a force play the hassocks were jammed. Jones then was put in to run for the slugg eill, and when Paschal was sent up to bat_for Francis, No. 4 of the New York pitchers, Harris lifted Gregg and called on Marberry. Huggins then countered by enlisting the services of Schang, who bats as well, or better, lefthanded, as in the orthodox man- ner. Huz scored a point when Schang looped a Texas leaguer to left that cashed Pipp and Scott, and boosted the Yanks to within one run of the Griffithian total, but all the remain- ing tricks were taken by Harris. Twilight Obl upon ingly Deepens. With potential tallies sufficient in number for a New York triumph on the bases, Dugan’s bid for a productive blow was deflected by Marberry to Peck, who flagged the runner at Judge’'s station, and as the twilight deepened Combs swung futilely for a third strike. Against Pennock, fifth and last of the metropolitan moundsmen, the Griffs achieved only an infield bingle by McNeely, subbing for Leibold, in their end of the eighth. 3 As Meusel walked to open the ulti- mate canto Harris' alleged influence with the Government director of things harometric became apparent as @ breeze sprang up to whirl clouds of dust about in the ever-deepenipg dusk. Peering intently into the gloom Geh- ‘rig and Pipp each contrived to hoist soft flies to McNally, but squint as he would Shanks could not follow the course of the ball as it was zipped through the murky ozome by Mar- berry and he fanned to send the fans groping their way to the exits. \ slash down the right field line for two bases by Judge was the key- stone in the construction of Washing- ton’s initial pair of tallies in the sec- for Early Lead, and When a Twilight Finish.

Judge trekked to third on the play and was over when Peck flashed the squeeze sign_and bunted to Pipp, whose toss . Johnson flagged Rajah. Ruel went all the way to third when Gehrig fumbled his bounding single, only to be left by Covey. Another brace of markers was reg- istered in the third when Hoyt found the going too rough and retired. Lei- bold opened with a shot to center and was forced on Harris’ attempt to sac- rifice. Rice walked, and when Goslin looped a single to Jeft the bases were loaded. Judge promptly produced’his second successive safety, this one a single to right that cashed Harris and Rice and sent Hoyt on his way, Shawkey taking his place. Bob the Gob immediately put the bee on that rally by whiffing Bluege, and when O'Neill fired to Dugan Goslin was doubled up going into third. Covey Given Strong Support. Coveleskie yielded only a single to Combs and a pass to O'Neill in his first three rounds, and when he was first seriously threatened, i the fourth, was accorded brilliant backing to emerge unscathed. Meusel and Geh- rig singled at the outset. and when Covey grabbed Pipp’s bunt and threw high to Judge the corners were crowd- ed with none out. Leibold then pro- vided the first defensive gem by tak- ing E. Johnson's fly and holding Meu- sel on third with a fine peg to the plate, and the Peck-to-Harris-to-Judge double-play combination functioned perfectly to complete the snuffing when Rajah speared Scott’s bounder. The Yanks achieved a run in the fifth, when O'Neill doubled and scored on a pair of put-outs, but the Griffs came right back in their half with a quartet of tallies at the expense of Shocker, third Yank pill propeller to appear, Shawkey having officiated in round 4. Leibold’s safety for a start- er was a clean single to center, and Harris attained the same general re- sult when Pipp fielded his sacrificial bunt and found no one at the initial sack to take the throw. Goslin Bats "Em Over. Rice's little single to left filled the bases, and when Goslin shot a rap to right, the fourth straight hit off Shocker, Leibold and Harris came in. The rally was halted while Judge lofted, but Bluege's Texas leaguer to right cashed Rice, and when Gehrig heaved wildly plateward Goslin also| reached the dish, Bluege galloping on to second, where he was left by Peck and Ruel. Three safeties figured in the regis- tration of as many runs by the Yankees in the seventh, after O'Neill walked with two gonme. Batting for hocker, Wanninger ‘advanced Steve with_a safety, and the latter scored on Dugan’s Texas leaguer to right. Combs then delivered the other pair with a double to left center.

Most all the Nats improved their batting averages during the after- noon, but Goslin, with a pass, two singles and a triple, profited the most. His three-bagger came at the start of the seventh, but netted nothing in the way of a tally. A nap, indulged in by Ernie John- son, gave Harris a hit in the fifth that later developed into a run. Pipp flelded Bucky’s sacrificial bunt, but found no one on first to take a throw. Combs, Judge, Leibold and Bluege figured in fancy defensive bits. Oss gave way to McNally in the eight to favor his ailing arm. HOW GRIFFS ARE BATTING . H. SB. RBIL.

By the Associated Press. D and jump, Overshadowing the performance of the individuai athletes was the record- smashing of Herbert Schwarze, glant weight man of Wisconsin, who shat- tered two marks. Schwarze, who has been tossing the discus for only three weeks, threw the missile 146 feet 7% inches, beating the Drake record of 138 feet 6% inches’made by Platt of Denver in 1923. Schwarze excelled his own Drake record in the shotput with a heave of 47 feet 9% inches. In the trials yes- terday, the Badger giant put the ball 45 feet 63 inches, which erased the old Drake record. School Team is Speedy. The crack relay quartet of North- east High School of Kansas City, Mo. raced to victory in three events, mak ing records in all of them. They started off by taking the 1 mile inter- scholastic event in 3:30 5-10, lowering the mark of 3:31 1-5 made by Cedar Rapids in 1922. They then won the half-mile after a close race with Cen- tral High of Omaha, covering the dis- tance in 1:32 810, which lowered the former record of 1:33 2-10 hung up by University High of Chicago in 1922. The Missourians won the third relay of the day by snatching a victory in the quarter mile, hanging up a new figure of 0:45 3-10. The old mark was 0:45 3-5, made by Cedar Rapids last year. The- Butler College runners alfo cracked two records, winning the 1- mile college relay in 3:18 210, the former mark being 3:23 2-10, made by Cornell College in 1921. The Hoosiers also won the half-mile college relay in 7 8-10, the former time was 1:30 8-10, made by ‘Wabash in 1917. ‘The two 'major university relays went to. Michigan and the University of Texas. The Wolverines, with the aid of the brilliant running of Charlie Reinke, the anchor man, won the 2- mile event, covering the distance in 1 4-10, and bettering the Drake relay record of 7352 2'10, established by Ames in 1921, The race developed into a thrilling struggle, with Ames, Wisconsin, Notre Dame and Michigan - threatening throughout. The Badgers led at the end of the first relay, with Ames trailing second. The teams finished in the same position at the end of the second relay with Notre Dame third. At the start of the final relay Ames was in the lead, with Michigan second.

Texas captured the 4-mile event after a spirited contest with the Oregon Aggies. Reese of Texas, rated as the fastest intercollegiate miler in America, overcame a 5-yard lead on the final mile and won by 10 yards. The Texan’s time was 17:58 3-10. Haskell Indians Victors. " A team of Haskell Indians, honored with traditional Indian names, bagged a vietory in the 2-mile college relay, hanging up a new record of 8:04 4-10. | This lowered the old record of 8:10 3-10 made by Monmouth College a year ago. Michigan shared honors with Butler in winning two’races, taking the 880-yard university relay after a battle with Tilinois. The Wolverine quartet ran the distance in 1:275-10," which tied the Drake record for the event. Reland Locke, the University of Nebraska sprinter, who tied the world record at 0:09 6-10 for the 100-yard dash at Lawrence a week ago, and George Guthrie of Ohio State were the ath- letes to tie records in_the individual events. Locke sprinted to vietory in 0:09 8-10, tying the Drake mark hung up by Jackson Scholz of Missouri in 1920.- Whitman of Michigan was sec- ond, Fisher of Kansas third and Ed- gars of Dartmouth fourth. The race was so close that hardly a foot sepa rated the first four men. Guthrie, a member of last year's Olympic team, captured the 120-yard high hurdles by 6 inches from Dan Kinsey of Illinois, with Tayler of Grinnell finishing third and half a yard back of the winner.

LOS ANGELES, Calif., April Paavo Nurmi, blond middle-distance runner from Finland, left a memory of a great cinder path pérformance with 40,000 people here today when he raced to victovy over a distance of 3 miles against eight Colifornia Indians in 14:15:9. He breasted the tape 46 seconds ahead of his first bronzed opponent. Nurmi's performance did not eclipse the work of Clarence N. Bud” Houser, University of Southern Cali- fornfa, and Johnny Myra, San Fran- cisco Olympic Club javelin thrower, who established new records in their events. Houser created a new world record and Myra set an American mark: Houger tossed the discus 156 feet 314 inches, beating the mark of 156 feet 214 inches, held by Tom Lieb of Notre Dams University. Myra, 1924 Olympic javelin cham- pion, advanced by 8 feet 5 inches the American mark of 203 feet 9% inches. Another world record was shattered by the four-woman relay team of the Pasadena Athletic Club in a 440-yard event.” Tifeir time was 52.7 seconds. The. former record was 53.3 seconds, which also was held by the Pasadena Club, Leighton Dye, University of South California, established a new Pacific coast record for the 120-yard high hurdles by clipping one-tenth of a sec- ond from the mark formerly held jointly by Earl Thompson and Fred Kelly. The records that fell, howéver, were but incidental to the crowded stands who came to pay respects to the ‘Phantom Finn.” |' PENN MEET CHAMPIONSHIP RELAYS. pESEREE Supcs nERAr, co, I SR .

HILADELPHIA, April 2 P —Georgetown came through again today To add to.its laurels of yesterday in the Penn relays, the Blue and (;ra\ this afternoon annexed two American relay titles, and in ‘one of the two races sct a new world record by a margin of more than five seconds.

Johnny Holden was second man and turned in the best time of the four, doing his distance in 1 minute §4 seconds ‘flat. Sullivan, third than, covered the half in 1 min ute 54 2.5 seconds, while George Mar- sters, the star-of the team, who did 1 minute 53 seconds yesterda: credited with doing 1 minute 55 sec- onds. Had Marsters run as fast to- day as he did_yesterday the George- town four would have hung up a rec ord that would have been likely to stand for years. Burgess Star in Mile Relay. In thé mile relay race for the American championship, Georgetown won through the brilliant efforts of all_four runners, and through _the super-brilliant performance of Bur gess, anchor man. It seemed un fortunate that Yale bad to be the second team and be beaten in the final stretch by the rare margin of a yard, in much the same way that it lost last year to Virginia. Both these teams distanced the others. Haas started the relay. for George- town and ran in fourtd place a con- siderable part of the way. On back stretch he began to move up and when he hit the straight away was in second place. He came to the front with a rush, passed Paulson, the first Yale runner, and sent Herlihy off a vard to the good. Herlihy and Ascher could not keep up the pace against Clark and Norton of Yale, and Gage, anchor man for -Yale, took up the final running six or seven yards ahead of Burgess, And when men are do- ing the quarter around 50 seconds that is a real handicap. Yet Burgess started his race, just about beld his own until the beginning of the sec ond two-twenty, when he began slow Iy to creep up. Almost imperceptible at first, he drew up on the Yale fiyer, but when the two men turmed into the stretch, he was right at the Yale man's heels. He started a terriffic burst of speed, but the Yale man also had a real kick left and it was not un- til-within 10 yards of the tape that the Blue and Gray was carried to the front. Burgess literally hurled him- self across the finish line a bare half vard or so in front of his Yale op- ponent. Burgess' time for his quarter was 43° seconds. Two Days of G. U. Triumphs. For two days in the Penn relays Georgetown has accomplished about as much as any team reasonably could hope to. In fact, it is doubtful if any other' school has attained such distinc- tion in any set of Penn games. Two world records in winning relay cham- pionships, a third relay championship and first and second places in the all- round individual championship is ing some,” as one might appropriately express it Yesterday the sprint medley relay championship was won in world- record time in 3 minutes 28 seconds. Yesterday Plansky won. the all-round championship by taking first in_the decathlon, while his teammate, Nor- ton] was second.
