It was a battle of giants, the |of high spots of which were Kuth's 22nd home run of the season and Hen drick’'s desperate slide to the plate in | the ninth inning, resulting in the knocking out of Catcher Ituel, The triumph enables the Yankees to open their home stand against the western teams tomorrow only one game be hind Weshington, Danforth, allowing but three scat- | tered hits, led 8t, Louls to an easy to 1 win over the Tigers, Stone Cobb's moundsman, also pitched well and averted a shut-out with a home run, Manager Sisler materially alded | the Browns with a circuit clout.

These two firsts, a third and two fourths give her the impressive total of 80 points, By tonight the Americans hope to replace Sweden in second position, and may cven overtake Finland, their greatest rival in this year's games, To do so, however, one of America's four fastest sprinters will probably have to beat the fiying Englishman Abrahams, who qualified for the semi-finals in the 100.metre dash yesterday in 10 2-5 seconds, equalling the Olymple | record and one-fifth of a second fas- ter than tha qualification heat of any of the four Americane, Ot the six men who led in as many heaty In the second series of the 100- dash eliminations there were Americans, Loven Murchison, | Bowman, Charley Paddock and Juckson Scholz; one Canadian, | (Coaffee, and Abrahams, the Cam- | bridge star, Three Americans, I*. Mor- gan Taylor, C. R, Brookins and Ivan tiley, will run in the 400-metre hur- dle finals, and one of them ought to win if yesterday's preliminaries are a worthwhile indication. Another trit of Yankees, Leroy T. Brown, H. Osborn and Tom Poor, are among the nine who have qualified for the high jump finale this afternoon. Whoever wing these three final events, the day is not likely to be al- together one Angla-Saxon triumph, as the Scandinavians are strongly rep- resented in the events making up the pentathlon, Finland's opening day of glory, with the triumph of fonnie Myrra, their javelin champion, and the world r ord shattering victory of Willie Ritola in the 10,000 metre race gave the | first impressive proof of the strength | have | {marshalled to throw into the battle with the United States., Ritolas race, which nictre ceter i was all the | under the worst sort of conditions for record breaking was acclaimed today by sport followers as among the | premier feats of the world's as well as ‘Um Olympic athletic annals. Runnlnz ,aH rivals into the ground the sturdy Finn seemed capable of going on in- definitey and had to be waved off the track when unmindful that he had | covered the full distance, he kept go- ing at full speed after crossing the finish ine. ilvin Wide, Swedish star, finished | second badly heaten The fast pace he set for almost half the distance proba- bly was a big factor in Ritola's record breaking, although when the Kinn found the pace not to his liking he stepped out and shook off wide for a few laps. He ran the last third of the distance alone and unpaced. The victor's time of 30 minutes, 20 1-5 seconds bettered his own previous world's mark by 12 1-5 seconds and was nearly a full minute under the Olympic records made by Hannes Kolehmainen at Stockholm in 1912, The outcome of the first distance | test proved that the Americans are unable to stem the I"innish tide, which now will undoubtedly run unchecked 80 far as the Jonger races are concern- ed. Verne Booth the man most counted on by the Americans, came in straggled for n the r Finland meanwhile ghowed in Ritola only one of her distance stars, holding her | trump eard, Paavo Nurmi, for his greatest efforts in the 1,500 and metre runs. In addition to the 400-metre hurdles, high jump and pentathlon tods semi-finals are | scheduled in the So0-metre which four Americans are 4 against as many British rivals, trials in the 3,000-metre steeplechase. The crowd of nearly 40,000 which | watched the opening of the games generally showed a spirit of impar- tiality, cheering the victors in the ini- tial events, although the natural sym- pathies of the French who largely made up the audience prompted the 100-metre dash, principal outbursts when wearers of | the tricolor flached to the fore. The American competitors seemed some- what cool at first while they were monopolizing most the preliminary ceremonies, but, this gave way to enthusiasm as the | Yankess swept over the line first in | four out of six final 100-metre trial | One group of Americans organi their own cheering in typical coll style. while the Finns, magsed, in an- | other section were in continuons flag- | waving tumult as their stars mon- | opolized the first day’s limelight. The shouts for Ritola, hers of the day wete so insistent after his victory that he responded by giving a short spech to his countrymen.

Ray was a member of the team four years ago but had the misfortune to pull a muscle in his right leg but two days before the 1,500-meter run in which Te was entered. He insist- ed on starting and finished eighth, This year the 1,500-meter event is wpractically conceded to Paavo Nurmi of Finland and this is one reason why Coach TLawson Robertson of the American team restricted Ray's par- { ticipation to the longer run, CORBINS WINONE - LOSE TWO GAMES | Losing Contests After dropping two straight games, one to Nerwich and one to Taftyille, the Corbin Red Sox outfit went to Mystic yeserday and had sweet res venge by administering a beating to the Rossie Velvet A, C. team of that town.
