Speaking of Sports Local Dartmouth grads turned eut | last night to give Harry Hillman, the | Green's famous track coach, a wel- come to New Britain, Harry gave them & new slant on the Olympics when he said that America will have to look out for Finland this year, He thinks the Iinns have progressed faster in ath- | leties than any ‘other ruce, | Co’ch Hillman also told a stery of the time the Olympic games were hald in Athens and the starters gave the signal in Greek. He told of one Am- erican athlete who took his mark and when the starter gave the word in | Greek the American athlete stood up | and looked at him in amazement, and | while he was looking at the starter | the race started and the American athlete found that he had come 2,000 miles for nothing. Speaking of gamencss in athletes Mr. Hillman told of a stydent at Dartmouth who had lost the use of both his legs due to infantile paralysis and because of this handicap cou'd not take part in most branches of athletics. Mr. Hillman said that this student took up work en the travel- ing rings, in which branch of sport his handicap was not seridus, and that last year in the intercollegiates he captured one of the highest honors in that branch of sport, Knoxville fans turned out en masse vesterday to see Babe Ruth hit a homer. He disappointed them in that respect but-—he got a double and a triple. Meusel also gave them a good show when he hit a homer and two triples. . Homers also featured the Giants win yesterday when Gowdy and K eelebrated McGraw's birthday w cireuit taps, Roland Todd, halled as Britain's best boxing bet, has proved a flivver and will return to his native heath after losing to Malone and Loughran, ‘Waterbury's baseball park fs fnun- dated by the floods.
