FOUR AU, CHAMPS ON TEAM OF EGHT Far West Places Three, East and Midwest Two and South One. BY RUSSELL J. NEWLAND, Associated Press Sports Writer. AN FRANCISCO, July 25— America’s Olympic boxirg team, selected after a three- night storm of leather gloves, is heralded as one of the most formidable ring delegations ever assembled by this country for the games. The eight who will wear the United States shield in the tenth Olympiad won their laurels in fu- rious finals here Saturday night, climaxing the first open tourna- ment ever held to select a team. Nearly 100 candidates from 20 States and a territory donned fistic parapher- nalia once more during the trials. The team left today for Los Angeles. Sectionally, the Far West claimed the distinction of placing the most team members, with three, Two from the Fast; as many from the Midwest and & lone entry from the South. round out the first squad. OUR national A. A. U. titleholders, Louis Salica of Brooklyn, Nathan Bor of Fall River, Mass.; Edward Flynn of New Orleans, and Fred Feary of Stockton, earned the right to carry their country's colors in international competition. Salica defeated James Perrin of New leans in the finals of the 112-pound clase. Bor clinched lightweight honors with a second round technical knockout over James McCarron of Somerville, Mass. Flynn stopped Charles Cravotta of Uniontown, Pa., in the third round of the welterweight wind-up. Feary punched out a decision over the national intercollegiate champion, Doy- lass Hill of New Orleans Joe lang of San Francisco became the 118-pound standard bearer with a knockout over Jess La Barba, Oakland, in_the second round. The featherweight finals saw John Hines of San Pedro thump out a deci- sion over Anthony Mascarello of Chi- cago. AT 160 pounds, Carmen Barth, hard- hitting Cleveland boy, hauled down a close decisicn over Fred Caserio of Chicago, national A. A. U. cham- pion, in the semi-finals and topped off the night with a one-sided win from Del Smith of Los Angeles. John Miler cf Detroit proved more rugged than Max Merik of Chicago and had his hand raised in the 175-pound finals. Five of the losing finalists—Perrin, Muscarello, McCarron, Cravotta and Hill —were named as alternates ybsterday by the Olympic Committee, while the other three of the defeated eight were sidetracked in favor of victims of earlier upsets. Other alternates include James Mar- tin of New York, naticnal 118-pound champicn; Fred Caserio, 160 pounds; Homer Brandis of San Prancisco, 175 pounds. Spike Webb, Olympic coach for the fourth time, said he believed this team will be the best he has directed. The squad will arrive in Los Angeles tonight and start training tomorrow.

BY PAUL ZIMMERMAN, Associated Press Sports Writer. Eddie Tolan is casting the darkest shadow across Ralph Metcalfe's sprint path in the tenth Olym- as his ccach from Marquette, Mich,, C. M. Jennings, sees it. “It is my personal opinion,” sald Jennings, “that Tolan will be the man Metcalfe must beat, unless Percy Wil- liams is back in form, and I am told that he is in great shape. And then, of course, there is Arthur Jonath of Germany, “Strong it may sound, don't be surprised if {Metcalfe runs the hundred meters in 102 sometime during the L | gemes. He is in better form now than he was at Palo Alto in the final team trials and ready to go.” LL of which indicates that Metcalfe either is very good, or the United States is due for another rude awakening following the short races of the international speed festival at Olympic Stadium next week. It was Willlams, a Canadian high school boy in his teens, who meted out the bad news at Amsterdam four years ago by | winning both the 100 and 200 meters from the seemingly invincible Ameri- cans. Hec Edmundson, University of Wash- ington track and fleld coach, who has contributed a number of athletes to Olympic teams past and present, is ready to say any time that Willlams is back in form. The Vancouver, B. C., youth, only 22 | now, sought out Edmundson last Spring when he started his preparation for the defense of his titles. He has been timed in 10.6 since. Lo ETCALFE is a powerful, driving runner.” said_Jennings a bit slow off the marks, yes, but he makes up for this with his great finish.” Coach Lawson Robertson of the American team is spending a great deal of time with his sprint relay team. Frank Wykoff, Bob Kiesel, Hec Dyer and Emmitt Tappino, brushing them up on the technique of baton passing. All have been used to a slightly differ- ent form. so Robertson is coaching them on his own system. Only a few blocks away from the United States training field, Joe Wait- | zer is priming his sprint stars from Germany on the same fine points, but in a different fashion. He thinks all the American baton-passing methods are wrong and is coaching his own system. The receiving runner starts out at top speed. swinging both arms to gain and only at the proper time does he extend his right hand back to grasp the baton. “It is no good unless” the runners’ timing is right,” he admitted, “but if it works each touch-off will put us 1 meter ahead of your Americans.” Golf Analyzed BY JOE GLASS ROBABLY the average player is more often off the line on full iron shots than on any other play he makes. A common reason is faulty shoulder and arm action at the top of the swing. It will be valuable, therefore, to note in some ensuing articles the shoylder and arm action of several gre-t stars at the top of the full iron swing. All fine iron players have one rule in common; they keep the club in a baianced position well away from th shoulders at the top. The extended left arm is only partly re- sponsible. ‘The right arm plays a part perhaps more important than that of the left. It is brought up so that the mght elbow is about on a level with the left shoulder. This keeps the club away from the body. Keeps the right elbow low and the shaft inevitably drops down close to the right shoulder. The clubhead is not poised and an uncontrolled swing follows. The sketch of Denny Shute above shows how well-placed arms give the club poise and balance at the top. “I'm helpless when it comes to long iron shots.” How many times have you heard this?

So lukewarm are they that a glance at the entry list | finds only one Washington Miss among | the entries. This is Virginia Pope of Congressional, who is paired at 1 o'clock with A. S.

The Maryland State Golf Association, which is to run this unique feature, will take post en- | tries today and tomorrow. Certainly there isn't any lack of golf- ing spirit in Washington, and yet in this tourney we find more than 100 Balti- moreans entered in a tourney played over a jocal course and two golfers from Washington. Maybe our fellow towns- folk do not believe in those old Leap Year traditions. EVEN holes in 21 strokes on & regu- lation length golf course. That's| the stunt that Dorle C. Gruver, the great putter of the Washington ‘Golf and Country Club, has just put on. In | addition to playing all the four short holes of the Washington layout in par, Gruver picked up three birdie 3s on the round, scoring seven 3s in a single round of golf. Had he played the rest of the holes even fairly well, he might have had a great score, but he picked up on one or two holes. Gruver pro- bably is one of the finest putters who ever stroked a ball. Martin_F. McCarthy is playing fine golf at Beaver Dam these days. He played that lengthy layout yesterday in | 74 strokes to win the Golf Committee trophy by five strokes from C. H. Phipps. The latter carded & 79. Two over par on the first nine with a 38, McCarthy came home in exactly the Dam pro, in the pro-amateur tourney at Bedford Springs, Pa., during the com- ing week end. R. LEE McCARTHY of the Wash- ington Golf and Country Club will think twice next time before he knocks another ball out of a bunker. Playing with Dr. F. J. Eichenlaub and Dr.” W. C. Sparks, McCarthy found all three balls lying together in a bunker in front of the fifth green. He didn't know the rule that enables the player farthest from the hole to lift the near ball, and 5o he played 'em all. Taking a mighty wallop he lifted all three balls out of that trap. His own ball rolled far over the green. So did that of his partner. But the ball of his opponent rolled up to within two feet of the cup and he lost the hole to & bird 3.

FVENTS LOCKED UP BY PAIR BROTHERS ’Aki. Matti Jarvinen Appear Victors Despite Yanks’ Record Breaking. | BY ALAN GOULD, | Assnclated Press Sports Editor. | OS ANGELES, July 25.—Al- I though the chief Ameri- can entries have surpassed | Olympic records in the jav- |elin and world records in the | decathlon, the homebreds find themselves in the unfortunate position of being outclassed in each event by the robust sons of Finland. Two of the surest bets in the Olympic track and field competi- tion, starting next Sunday, are that Akilles Jarvinen will outpoint his countryman, Paavo Yrjola, for the decathlon crown and that his younger brother, Matti Jarvinen, will win the javelin with a new world record toss. ‘The Jarvinen boys, whose father won | the Olympic discuss’ toss, Greek style, in 1906, appear to have their speciaities all wrapped up, barring the biggest kind of an upset. . KI” JARVINEN prefers sprinting to the rigors of the 10-event competition, spread over two days. but he was spurred on to prove himself the world's best decathlon art- ist by his father after being defeated in the 1928 games by Yrjola. The late ter set a world record of 8,052 points, but “Aki” has since accumulated 8,255, “Jarring Jim" Bausch, the rugged former Kansas University star, is the best decathlon entry the U. . A. has had since Jim Thorpe. Bausch ral up 8,103 points, bettering Yrjola listed record, in the final American tryouts. He finished far ahead of the other two American_qualifiers, Wilson_ (Bus- ter) Charles, the speedy Oneida Indian, and Clyde Coffman, also from Kansas. Bausch is the only one of the trio likely to place in the Olympic first six. N the javelin Malcolm Metcalf of Dartmouth and Kenneth Churchill of San Francisco both surpassed the Olympic standard with throws of ap- proximately 219 and 220 feet, respec. tively, in the final tryouts. Lee Bart- | lett, third quzlifier, threw 214 feet. These distances may be good enough for a point or two, but they do not compare with the latest performance of Matti Jarvinen, who has been averag- ing close to 240 feet, or his country- man, Eino Penttila, who has exceeded the present world mark of 255 feet, held by the Swedish star Lundquist. | The Pinns, with a threat or two mainly from Esthonia, Hungary and Sweden, lshould dominate the spear-tossing.
