PORTS. THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, 0 JULY 12, 1936—PART ONE. SPORTS. B—7 'Owens Leads March to Olympics : Rawls Scores Double Triumph TAKES 100 BROAD JUMP IN DECISIVE U.S. TESTS Ohio State Star Beats Metcalfe in Dash—Wykoff Scores in Comeback—Many Favorites Trail—Meet Draws Only 15,000. BY ALAN GOULD, Associated Press Sports Editor. EW YORK, July 11.—Jesse Owens, Ohio State's triple Olympic threat, led America’s athletic march toward Berlin today by winning two of the three events decided in the opening half cof the final United States track and field tryouts. The great Negro athlete made It look easy as he finished off two-thirds of his cempetitive job. He whipped his dusky rival from Marquette, Ralph Metcalfe, by a full yard in the final of the 100-meter dash, timed in 10.4 seconds, and then won the broad jump with the second of his two efforts, measuring 25 feet 1034 inches. To- morrow Owens will seek his third Olympic berth in the 200 meters. Today's competition, inaugurating the new Randalls Island Stadium, lo- cated under the neyly dedicated Tri- borough Bridge, began in blisteringly hot weather and finished between showers. It was marked by chaotic conditions as well as performances both startlingly superb and danger- ously disappointing, from the stand- point of United States Olympic pros- pects. Meet Attended by 15,000, THE stadium was scarcely two-thirds | occupied by a crowd estimated at 15,000 fans. This was a blow to the gate receipts. If repeated tomor- Tow for the finals, it will further com; plicate the Olympic financial situation and perhaps compel officials to curtail team selections, despite the previous decision to take a full track and field squad to Germany. Sharing today's spotlight with the machinelike Owens were Frank Wy- koff, Southern California sprint vet- eran who clinched a place on the Olympic team for the third time by placing third in the 100-meter final, and long-striding John Woodruff, Uni- versity of Pittsburgh Negro runner, | ‘who came within one-tenth second of equaling the world 800-meter record in his trial heat. ‘Wykoff, schoolboy sensation of 1928 in the 100 and anchor man on the | record-smashing American 400-meter relay team at Los Angeles four years ago, thrilled spectators with his come- back. Out of competition until this Spring, Wykoff was given only an outside chance to make the team sgain and thereby duplicate the per- formance of another famous Trojan, Charley Paddock. Wykoff Wins Extra Heat. REACH the final Wykoff had Committee that he was ready to with- | draw from the individual event, inas- much as ke already has clinched an Olympic berth in the decathlon. Thus Kermit King, a New York Negro com- peting for Pittsburg (Kans.) Teachers’ College, probably will make the trip. King was fourth, with 24 feet 11 inches, and would automatically qual- ify if Clark’s withdrawal is accepted. Clark, national decathlon champion in 1934 and 1935, was runner-up to Glenn Morris, Fort Collins, Colo., au- tomobile salesman, in the final try- outs for the all-around event at Mil- waukee recently. Qualifying trials in six events, pav- ing the way for finals tomorrow ia a total of 14 individual specialties, were marked by a series of upsets, apait from the elimination of Eulace Pea- cock, Temple University Negro, in both the 100 meters and broad juimp competition. Peacock Checks Out. PEACOCK. 1935 national champion and erstwhile conqueror of Owens, failed to come back after being given special permission to enter the final trials. Still handicapped by a pulled leg tendon, he ran seventh and last in his one attempt at the 100, then cleared only 23 feet 3 inches in the broad jump. Two Olympic champions of 1932 also fell by the wayside. Eddie Gor- don, jr, former University of Iowa Negro who won the broad jump at Los Angeles, barely cleared 24 feet and recuperating from an attack of grip, saw his chances of defending the dis- cus title fade quickly. Anderson’s best field of nine. The discus tossers, as well as the shotputters, competed under condi- tions that found them far off form and complaining as bitterly about the footing as spectators were about the generally confusing conduct of the | meet. both weight events for tomorrow’s finals, topped the discus throwers at 157 feet 712 inches. Shotputting Poor. In the shotput the two favorites, record-holding Jack Torrance Baton Rouge, La, and Dimmy Zaitz of Boston, barely qualified as Sam Francis, University of Nebraska, achieved 50 feet 4 inches, to lead the field. Torrance was fifth with 49 feet 3% inches, while Zaitz just managed to to run an extra heat, after plac- ing fourth to Owens in the first pre- liminary. Flying Frank got better, | however, with each race. He was off the marks in old-time form in the extra heat, run to decide the seventh | finalist, and easily beat Harvey | (Chink) Wallender of Texas in 10.7 | seconds. . Wykoff was no match for either Owens or Metcalfe after passing the half-mark in the final. He finished ' two yards behind Owens and a yard batk of Metcalfe, but outfooted four | other sprinters as he crossed the finish a foot ahead of Roy Draper, diminutive Southern California star. Marty Glickman of Syracuse, Sam | Stoller of Michigan and Mack Robin- #on, Pasadena (Calif.) Negro, finished | in that order behind Draper. With places in the Olympic 100 | confined to the first three finishers, | the fate of the other finalists de- | pends on what the American Olympic | Committee decides to do tomorrow night about the make-up of the 400 meter relay team. Four more sprint- ers probably will be taken along, if the funds are available, but the out- come of the 200-meter dash tomorrow also will be taken into consideration before determining the relay per- sonnel. Woodruff Surprises in 800. WOODRUF startled onlookers by handing a sound beating to Ben Eastman, the former Stanford Uni- versity star, and breaking the tape in the first of two 800-meter tests in 1 minute 49.9 seconds. This was only & shade off the world mark of 1:49.8 which Eastman shares with England’ Tom Hampson, 1932 Olympic cham- pion. On a brand-new track and under conditions that looked far from auspicious for any record menacing performances Woodruff's race was electrifying and strengthened Amer- ica’s prospects of Olympic conquest in an event the United States of America has not won since Ted Mere- dith triumphed in 1912. Following Eastman’s pace most of the way, Woodruff simply let out a few extra links in his amazingly long stride, eating up at least 4 yards with each step and winning easily. Eastman not only was unable to match Woodruff’s finish, trailing the ‘winner by 6 yards, but he was beaten out for second place by Abe Rosen- krantz of Michigan Normal by a stride. Marmaduke Hobbs of Indiana was the fourth qualifier in this heat. Beetham Well Beaten. Tx! second heat of the 800 went to Southern California’s Ross Bush, who led most of the way and stood off Chuck Hornbostel's closing rush to win by 2 yards in 1:51.8, with Harry ‘Williamson of North Carolina, third, and Charle Beetham, Ohio State's national champion, a surprisingly bard-pressed fourth. . New England’s hammer throwers topped off the day's scramble in a thunderstorm by capturing all thred Olympic places in the third event to be completed. Henry Dreyer of the New York A. C. and Providence, R. I, topped the field by 2 inches with a toss of 171 feet, 11%; inches, as Bill Rowe of Rhode Island State and Don- ald Favor of Portland, Me., landed the other team qualifying positions. Colorado’s Chester Cruickshank missed out by less than 8 inches. Negro athletes were one-two in the broad jump finsl as well as the 100- meter dash as Owens set the pace in both events. The Ohio State star took only two jumps, clearing 25 feet 7% inches on his first try and then calling it a day with his winning mark of 25-10%. John Brooks, former Uni- versity of Chicago Negro, cleared 35 feet 3% inches to finish second. Clark Gives King Place. OBERT CLARK of the San Pran- cisco Olympic Club, gained third | | | squeeze into the final with a mark f 48 feet 93 inches. These marks | vere little short of ridiculous in a spe- cialty for which Torrance holds the | world record of 57 feet 1 inch. The casualties were heavier in the | javelin, in which two prime favorites, | John Mottram of the Olympic Club, national champion, and his club- mate, Bob Parke, both fell short of | 200 feet and failed to qualify. Parke \has thrown the spear over 222 feet | this year. The veteran Lee Bartlett of Detroit, point winner in the last Olympics, came through with a fine javelin throw of 223 feet 314 inches, to top the quali- fiers. He led Malcolm Metcalf, for- mer Dartmouth star now competing from Los Angeles, by more than eight feet. Third place went to Alton Terry, the Texas star, with 213 feet‘ 11 inches. This was considerably off | the new American record of 226 feet | 2%, inches that Terry set in the na- tional collegiate championships at Chlcngo O'Brien Barely Qualifies. A LTHOUGH still far off his record- breaking form of last Winter, Syracuse’s Eddie O'Brien assured himself a trip to Berlin, as a relay yunner, by struggling home to gain the seventh and last qualifying place for the final of the 400-meter run. Unless there is an official change of heart, all seven finalists will go to Berlin—the first three in tomorrow’s final as entries in the individual 400- meter run and the remaining four as members of the 1,600-meter relay team. Californians dominated the trials. Archie Willlams captured the first heat in the sparkling time of 46.7 seconds, with Al Fitch of Southern California second, Bob Young of U. C. L. A. third, and O'Brien fourth, fully 8 yards behind the winner. Another Negro, Jimmy Lu Valle of U. C. L. A, took the second heat in 47.3 seconds, with the national cham- pion, Hayold Smallwood of U. 8. C., Harold Cagle of Oklahoma Baptist, and Jack Weierhauser of Stanford fourth. O'Brien’s time, 47.6, was a shade better than Welerhauser’s and thus enabled the Syracuse runner to gain the final. Towns Shows Hurdle Class. FORRET TOWNS, University of Georgia’s sensational timber top- per, demonstrated his class by over- coming a poor start to win his heat of the 110-meter high hurdles in 14.3 seconds, one-tenth under the Olym- pic record, but not quite up to the world record-smashing display the Southerner has given previously. Towns finished a good yard ahead of Fritz Pollard, jr., Negro star from the University of North Dakota and son of the old-time Brown University foot ball halfback. ‘The famed ° Bsuthem California ‘Hurdling Twins,” Roy Staley and Phil Cope, came to the parting of the ways. Staley won the second qualify- ing test for tomorrow’s final, in the mediocre time of 14.7, after Cope had stumbled twice, finished sixth and been eliminated in the first heat. Al Morreaux, Louisiana veteran, was at Staley’s heels in the second heat. Le- roy Kirkpatrick of the Olympic Club and Sam Allen of Oklahoma Baptist, third-place men, qualified for the final, along with Phil Good of Bow- doin . Good had to run an extra heat to make the grade. Hardin Has Easy Race.- 'HE 400-meter hurdles trials, to decide seven finalists, developed no outstanding surprises, although Lorin Benke, University of Washing- ton star, was shut out by the margin of one-tenth second—the difference between his fourth place time of 53.5 seconds and that of 534 by Estel Johnson of Southern California, place in the broad jump in his final effort, measuring 25 feet 234 inches, but promptly notified the Olympic 4 fourth in the other qualifying heat. i throw measured only 138 feet 1134 inches, and he finished eighth in a Gordon Dunn, qualifying in | of | - Steppmg Into Berths on Olymplc Team Jesse Owens of O York yesterday.

ONDON, July 11.— Stanley ‘Wooderson, England's chief | hope for the Olympic 1,500~ meter championship, once again demonstrated his mastery over New Zealand's Jack Lovelock today. Before a crowd of 50,000, largest in London’s track and field history Since the 1908 Olympics, Wooderson | beat the great New Zealander by a | yard in the mile run of the British A. A.

In the stretch, Lovelock put on his customary sprint, but could make little impression on the lead Wooderson had gained. ConGitions Not Good. PmP‘ORMANm generally were far below Olympic standards, partly, at least, because of the ad- verse meet was run.

NOORDWLYK, Holland, July 11— John Van Ryn of Philadelphia was eliminated from the men’s singles in the Dutch tennis championships but, paired with his wife, reached the semi- final round of the mixed doubles and with Wilmer Allison, his old Davis Cup doubles partner, became a finalist in the men's doubles.

Xy the A:socinted Press. EW YORK, July 11. —Kzlh- erine Rawls of Miami Beach, King Neptune’s litt'e jack orf all watery trades, swept the waves in the final American Dlympic team swimming trials with a victorious double today by winning firsts in the 100-meter free style and the 3-meter diving championships. Katy first beat a field of 10 of the Nation's spring board queens to pile up 78.74 points in the 3-meter dive to capture first place by .02 of a point from 13-year-old Marjorie Gestring of Los Angeles. A half hour later she skimmed over the Astoria Park pool to capture the 100-meter first in a dramatic blanket finish that pushed her in front in the time of 1:11.1. Joining Miss Rawls on America’s woman swimming team—assured of places because of today’s triumphs— | were four mermaids from New York, | two from Los Angeles, one from Seattle and another from Mmmlvelght in all. D‘“;' Score Second Straight Day : Olympians Are Listed. 'HOSE winners and their events were: 100-meter free style—Miss Rawls, Bernice Lapp, Newark, N. J.; Olive McKean, Seattle; Mavis Freeman, | New York; Dorothea Dickinson, New | York, and Elizabeth Ryan, New York. (Rawls, Lapp and McKean to swim in 100-meter relay at Berlin; Dickin~ son and Ryan to serve as alternates on relay team.) 3-meter spring board dive—Miss Rawls, Marjorie Gestring, Los Ane geles, and Mrs. Dorothy Poynton Hill, Los Angeles. Finals tomorrow will be held in the high platform dive, 100-meter back stroke, 200-meter breast stroke and 400-meter free style. Winners of first, second and third in each event will win places on the Olympic team, giv ing America a full squad of 21 girls. | In today's preliminaries, Mrs. Eleanor Holm Jarrett, New York; Margery Smith, Chicago; Dorothy Forbes, Philadelphia; Edith Motridge, Los Angeles; Alice Bridges, Uxbridge, Mass.; Erna Kompa, New York, and o Anna Mae Gorman, Homestead, Pa., entered the finals of the 100-meter 0| back stroke. Competition Is Strong. KATY who gained Olympic experi- * ence in the 1932 games at Los Angeles, where she finished second be- hind Georgia Coleman and Mrs. Doro- thy Poynton Hill, was pressed closely over her double victory drive before 2,000 spectators and under a cloudy " | sky today. | In the 100-meter free style Miss Lapp almost overtook her with a bril- liant finish, but Katy was given the nod with only inches to spare. Fal- tering in the stretch just enough to lose her chance for a first was Olive | McKean of Seattle. Mavis Freeman of New York also faltered, but came in fourth, while | Dorothea Dickinson and Elizabeth | Ryan, two New York stars, came al- most even to win fifth and sixth to insure a trip to Berlin as alternates. | The only finalist qualifier to lose was Mary Lou Petty of Seattle, who was victimized by a slow start. Olomay “Toni” Redfern, sensational New York schoolgir] and holder of the A. A. U. outdoor title, was eliminated in the semi-final. Mary Horger Loses Out. HE diving final was one of the closest in swimming history. Miss Rawls won first place by .02 of a point over blond 13-year-old Marjorie Gestring of Los Angeles, whose total was 78.72 points. Mrs. Hill came next with 78.60. Among the stars who | failed to qualify were 12-year-old | Mary Hoerger, Miami, former A. A. U, | outdoor champion, and Claudie Eck- ert of Chicago, who won the title last month at Manhattan Beach. Spectacular lay-éut front somer- sault, forward one and one-half and running half gainer dives won for | Miss Rawls. The Gestring girl's finest | dives were the running full twist and the cutaway one and one-half. Mrs. | Hill scored her most points with a | cutaway one and one-half and a run- ning half gainer. Many spectators thought the Hoer- | ger girl should have placed among the first three, but the judges pointed out that, while she didn’t miss a single | dive, she lost points with a “poor ap- proach.” The same thing, they said, | ruined Miss Eckert's hopu U.
