Lewis said in the event either accepts the challenge he will give the $5.000 to charity, and the com- mission yesterday ruled that if ERHAPS the erRl‘x]t-dfl_\" heavyweight does not fight as spiritedly or as cleverly| as his old-time brother, but he does seem to keep in better humor while getting ready for a| job. According to legends most of the old-timers were inclined to| grump and grouch when training for a championship fight and sel- dom were addressed as “dear pal and brother” by either camp at- taches or visitors.

HICAGO, June 5 (#).—The task of trying to keep as many Southern California stars as possible from qualifying for the finals was today's assignment for 77 other institutions en- in the tenth annual national collegiate track and field championships at Stagg Field. Trials in all track events except the mile and two-mile, and everything except the pole vault and high’ jump in the field list, were on tod trial program, which promised almost as much keen competition as the finals tomorrow Wwill provide. Frank Wykofl of Ssuthern California d Eddie Tolan of Michigan had to qualify e 100-yard dash in preparation their battle tomorrow, Tolan had his _qualifying ts in the 220-yard dash to look after. The hurdle races had lost some of their color with the withdrawal of Lee Sentman of Illinois, but the entry of Ed Genung and Hartley of Wash- ington promised better battles in the 440 and 880 yard events. Sentman will ot defend his 220-yard low hurdle title because of scholastic examinations. Genung, who won the half mile in 1929, and Dale Letts of Chicago, are expected to stage A record race in the event tomorrow, both having done 1:54 or better. Hartley has a 48-second quar- | ter on his record. and may be the athlete | capable of shoving Vic Williams of Southern California, to a new N. C. A. mark in the race. Seven defending title holders were back r other try, four of them in field Tom Warne of Norihweste r another pole vault cham James Stevart of Southern C: winner of the high jump in 930, was entered again, with Ed Gordon of lowa, in the broad jump, and Ken Churchiil of C in the javelin, as the other defenders In addition to Wycoff in the 110-yard as hampions again _entered ere Joe Sivak of Butler. in the mile, and Harold Manning of Wichita in the two-mile.
