International Federation in Favor of Retaining Women’s Events in BODY FIRMLY BACK OF FAIR SEX CAUSE Compensation Proposal for! “Broken Time,” Starting Blocks Disapproved. By the Associated Press. ERLIN, May 21.—Strong pressure in favor of the continuance of women's Olympic track and fied! events in 1932 games at Los An- geles was brought to bear today by the International Amateur Athletic Federa- tion in session here. Unless the women are allowed to com- pete, the world's male athletes as rep- resented in the I A. A. F. will adopt a policy of non-co-operation in regard to the Olympics, it was indicated. A resolution proposed by Gustavus T. Kirby of New York was adopted by the federation at its closing session today which provides that the I. A. A. F. shall remain in Berlin in recess ready to be called together should the Olympic Congress, convening next week, decide to eliminate the women's track and field events. Strongly Against Compensation. The International Amateur Athletic Federation has taken a firm stand against compensating athletes for lost ‘wages during Olympic games.

By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, May 21.—George Simp- son, the Ohio fiyer, threw away his | wooden starting blocks today determined to set a new world record for the 100- yard dash in the Western Conferenece track and field championships at North- western University Friday and Saturday. Sim| ’s action followed news that the International Amateur Federation, in its meeting at Berlin, had refused o approve his record ol :09.4, made with the use of blocks in the national col- legllu meet last year, and the same time had recognized the :09.5 of Eddie Tolan, Michigan’s bespectacled Negro flash, accomplished in the Western Con- fererice meet a year ago. Since Tolan became ellglble for inter- collegiate competition last year a great rivalry between the Wolverine and Simpson has existed. The edge in vic- torles is with Simpson by a wide margin, but in Tolan’s only victory over the Ohio State sprinter he obtained the coveted world mark. By the ruling yesterday Tolan has become the only sprinter in many years to hold the century record all by himself. Both started slowly this season and each was defeated in indoor meets. Pre- vious records mean mothing when the ltocky Ahm ~-legged Tolan, and the wiry n get together.

NEW YORK, May 21 (CP.A).— Back at familiar Sunningdale, a course he would like to “wrap up and take home,” Bobby Jones came from behind to win the golf illus- trated gold vase, with the record- breaking aggregate of 143. Bob would have lopped at least three strokes off that total but for a slovenly 40 on the incoming nine of the first round. The rapid-gaited Atlantan is a poor walter. Like George Duncan, Jones burns up inwardly when forced to wait between shots. Traffic con- gestion on v.he homeward nine dur- ing the opening round at Sunning- dale so irl Jones that he seemed to lose interest and lapsed into care- less ways. Concentration is the essence of championship golf. When your mind wanders afitld the ball is apt to follow suit. Always impetuous, champing on the bit, Bobby cannot adjust himself to delays. He fumed and fretted on the last three tees at Sunningdale, while lnem marshals struggled impotently to clear the fairways. A Grover Whalen would have helped.

Ha of Syra- cuse,” George Stevens of Dartmouth, Abner Kurtin of Columbia and Hector Dyer of Stanford, not t6 mention half a dozen others, will be on hand to make their bids for collegiate laurels and ac- quire, if possible, the coveted inter- collegiate crown. Tolan, one of the greatest Negro sprinters ever to don @& track shoe, has run the “century” in faster time than Simpson—that is, without the mechanical aid of a starting ‘device. The “Wolverine Express” sped over the 100-yard course in 95-10 seconds & year ago, which time is a shade faster than the accepted marks of th:grmm day. Simpson’s 92-5 was made with starting blocks and consequently should not be given considertion. Tolan's marks has been accepted of- ficlally, but there is no certainty mn . the flying Negro’s stancard will remat for long. Frank Wykoff, runnl.nz In California a few davs ago, glided -over the cinders in 92-5 seconds. No me- chanical device aided him in his ef- forts. ‘The historic cinder path of Soldferc’ Field should be properly scorcined by the speeding feet of these two and a faster 100-yard dash turned than at any previous intercollegiate.
