A. A. U. 10-mile title, holding the watch champion of South America, in a workout yesterday. with Bernie Cassell, director of the Emergency First Aid Corps (in black sweat suit), and Jimmy Ortiz, Catholic University stu- dent and pro bozxer, accompanying him. Cassell is Rios’ te wporary trainer, Ortiz his inter- preter. Rios will represent Peru in the Pan-American Exposition marathon at Dallas. Tex., July 18. In 1935 Jose stowed away on a boat to reach the South American Olympics. made his entry with difficulty. and won the marathon He was flown from Brazil to The Star roce and. arriving at 5 a.m., the day of the contest, finished twelfth, running the last 10 miles barefoot and with a strained tendon. Porter Promises to Compete. PORT'ER has assured Tennyson he will be on deck. Dengis isn't cer- tain to run, but Rios is all hopped up over the contest, in spite of the fact that for 10 davs recently he lay abed with a leg infection.

Pat and Agee are the hottest sort of rivals. Dengis broke Bill's victory streak in Towns Runs Third. THE Detroit youth's triumph over Towns, who conquered him in the National Collegiate A. A. cham- pionship meet at Berkeley, Calif., two weeks ago, was wholly earned. And Towns' defeat was o thorough that | he was forced to accept third place behind the flying Tolmich and Ray Staley of Southern California. Tolmich and Staley went into a shoulder-to-shoulder battle with the crack of the pistol, with Towns, hold- er of the world mark at 14.1 seconds. away to a slow start. Towns pulled up even with the pace-setters as they tlammed over the last hurdle, but Tolmich’s desperate lunge at the finish, and one almost as good by Staley, left the world champion in third place. Tolmich's time, 14.5 seconds, was good considering the field ran directly into an eight-mile wind | Showing signs of weariness from his two-day campaign, Tolmich came up with another dazzling finish in the low hurdles. His reward was victory by about & vard over Jack Donovan of Dartmouth and the New | York A.

Jack Weierhauser of Stanford raced & spectacular 200 meters, running away from his field to win the meet record time of 209 seconds.

However, he won because he required fewer efforts to get over the top height, for Cornelius Warmerdam of Fresno, Calif., State College and the Olympic Club of San Francisco; Earle Meadows, the other “heavenly twin,” and Varoff all cleared the same height. Sefton's performance also was short of the 14 feet 11 inches he and Meadows achieved in the Pacific Coast Conference championships, which will be offered as a world record.

Held- man, who hurt his leg last week at | Merion in the national intercollegi- ates, was injured again in a fall in He couldn't cover the reach. Mulloy, seeking to become the first player in the history of the tournament to defend the title suc- cessfully, had the advantage of wear- ing spiked shoes on the slippery around on bare feet.
