'OWENS, WHO BREAKS MARKS, LACKS FORM Has Freakish Style as Sprinter and Hurdler and Has Little Kick as a Jumper. 1JAMES CLEVELAND “JESSE” ‘ OWENS, lanky Negro Ohio State | sophomore, who broke three world records and tied ancther in one day, | is a freak in the track and field realm. Owens is lamentably ilacking | in what captious critics call form, but has greater natural speed and leg spring than ever has been given to |any man in the history of running | and jumping. 2 | As a sprinter Jesse Owens runs in | the style of a quarter mile. He runs from the hips down, with a long swing and none of the leg chop of the | usual sprinter. Owens comes to top | speed much quicker than the average | star runner, and does not seem to make any unusual spurt toward the | finish of either the furlong or cen- | tury. As a hurdler Owens is a hopper, and there’s little form to the manner in which he steps over the 2':-foot barriers. His superiority in the low | | hurdles is due to the tremendous | speed with which he runs between the hazads and to his steady finish. Owens is so fast that even when he trips a hurdle, as he did in a recent meet, he still can finish in record time. | In jumping Owens has little or no kick. He just tucks his legs beneath | him and sails. Owens takes an un- usually long run on the jump, but | seems to float the last 10 féet before | making his take-off. His only fault in the broad jump is inaccuracy in hit- | ting the take-off, for he usually starts | his leap several inches behind the | board. | COINED “GALLOPING GAELS.” Seeking an alliterative as well as descriptive title to replace the plain | “Irish,” Pat Frayne, San Francisco | sports writer, dubbed the fast-moving | 8t.

Virginia and William and Mary Presidents, Coaches Are Oddly Scrambled. Mary, is an alumnus and former rector of the Board of Visitors of the University of Virginia. James G. Driver, director of ath- letics at the University of Vir- ginia, is an alumnus of the Col- lege of William and Mary. Billy Gooch, director of ath- letics at the College of William and Mary, is an alumnus of the University of Virginia. That is not all. Some are won- dering where Ashton Dovell of Williamsburg, floor leader of the Virginia House of Delegates, stands on the question of University of Virginia-William and Mary foot ball. Like driver, Delegate Dovell cap- tained a William and Mary foot ball team, and then moved to the University of Virginia. The year after he piloted the | Indians, Dovell in 1908 scored the only touchdown in the first game between the Indians and the Cav- aliers—but he scored it for Vire ginia. Driver, who captained the Will- iam and Mary team in 1910, later found himself in the embarrassing position of playing against an alma mater. After these facts have been added, subtracted, multiplied and divided, maybe you can prove the | answer with the fact that Coach John Kellison of Willlam and Mary was an assistant coach at the University of Virginia during the Greasy Neale regime.

From there the odds leap quickly to Wilmer Allison at 15 to 1, though why the man who extended Perry in the 1934 American final should be re- garded thus lightly is not clear. Next above that, and sharing a bracket with Vivian McGrath, are the youngsters of the American Davis Cup team, Donald Budge and Gene Mako, at 20 to 1.
