FOP, the first time since the I 3.000 meter steeplechase; event was introduced into Olympic competition in 1920, the I U mted States Has a good chance to , capture this special, gruelling event. And America is pinning hopes of victory on none other than the young distance star, Joseph i "Shuffling" McCluskey, of Fordham University. The 3,000 meter steeplechase event,- while not one whit more important than any of the other -x’ente on the Olympic program as | far as victory value is concerned, is significant in that it mark.- the parting point between American athletes and Olympic victories. Up I to the 3,000 meters the list of I Olympic winners is usually generI ously studded with the names of Americans. The 100. 200. 400. HOO and 1,500 meters have been won by Americars, and even the •..500 r.ieter steeplechase has gone
TERRY EQUALS WORLD RECORD New York. - April 23.—(U.R)—Bill I Terry. New York Giants’ first baseman. is tied for the big league con-; secutive homer record, with six in four days, a record he holds jointly' (with Babe Ruth. Ken Wi liams and Chuck Klein. Memphis Bill blasted out his' sixth circuit clout yesterday in the, ! second inping to help the Giants (beat Philadelphia, 13 to 8. It was: I the Giants' third consecutive victory over the Phillies. The champion St. Louis Cardinals! ended their losing streak at six games by beating the Pittsburgh Pirates. 5 to 3. in 10 innings. The Cards scored two runs in the tenth on two walks and three Pirate errors. At Boston, the Braves scored: their second straight victory over the Brooklyn Dodgers, 4 to 1. It was a costly victory because Bos-' ton lost the services of the first baseman Art Shires for about two j weeks. He went to the hospital: | with a broken nose and an injured I knee. He was struck with a ball and collided with Joe Stripp. i Rookie Bob Brown of the Braves outpitched the famous Dazxy Vance.: Scoring all their runs in the first! three ' innings, the Chicago Cubs! beat the Cincinnati Reds. sto 1. It! was the Ttibs' second straight victory. In the American league, the Detroit Tigers tightened their hold: on the lead by pounding five Cleve-I i land pitchers for 22 hits, to win 16. to 3. The Tigers scored in every ’inning except the first and eighth, j Wyatt, on the mound for Detroit,: (scored his third victory of the: season. Stone and Wyatt homered | i for Detroit. , | l The St. Louis Browns were aid- : ed in their 4 to 1 victory over the ; Chicago White Sox by Felillo’s, homer in the fourth.

Ito an American, but there the pro-1 ! cession of American victories seem to cease. Apart from the mara • thon, which was won by two Ameri cans since 1896, America has failed to win any of the distance jaunts. But now with McCluskey wearing the emblem of the United States in this event, as he probably will, the chances of victory are great. In addition “Shuffling” Joe may enter the .-wo-mile run and possibly the 5.J00 meters. McCluskey’s remarkable feat in clipping no fewer than 8 3-5 seconds from the world’s record in winning the two-mile steeplechase at the A. A. U. national championships last Winter, makes 1 it difficult for one to even guess who might beat him. Joe traveled the distance in 9 minutes 46 4-5 ’ seconds, shattering the mark set , back in 1929 by Eino Purjo, of i Finland ■ Noxv for something about the ‘i running style of this youthful (he

Repn.. la. : not only has his son as secretary.' but his two daughters showed up ! on the payroll last summer. The! i list in both houses and in both . parties could be extended indefinitely and then nobody but a 1 private detective could ever ferret out all of the in-laws, cousins and others dftter the family names; drop out of sight. j Last summer congress was in' recess. There was no session for nine months. Many senators lock- . ed their offices and had their mail ! forwarded Business was at a minimum. Yet Senator Park Tramwell. Dem.. Fla., whose business never is heavy, maintained I his four clerks, two of them TramI wells, one a brother, on the office, i payroll. This is not to single him! . out. He travelled in numerous company. Each senator is allowed four; office employes at‘fixed salaries j ranging from SI,BOO up to $3.900: ja year. Most often the relatives, get the higher salaries and a' Washington girl is hired to carry: [ the heavier load of work. If it , isn’t a relative, then it is a politi- , cal heeler from back home who is apt to get the big money. Many, I during the slack season, put mem- ' hers of the family on the payroll and keep only one working cl j k !to watch the office and forward mail. Senator Elmer Thomas of Oklahoma had his wife on the payroll as his secretary until November '3O last. She drew the highest I

Lacking the poise rhythm and co-ordination which according to all the theories, are essential to rur*ning success. Joe steps out stiff-backed and awk . ward to prove that all one needs tn win is courage and the ability to get to the finish line first. In addition to possessing unu uai speed and stamina McCluskey runs with his head as well as his feet. He is a remarkable judge of pace and rarely if ever has he over taxed himself. He judges his pace and stamina so efficiently that instead of weakening he seems to grow stronger as lhe race progresses.

: salary, $3,900 a year. ‘ She worked, though she wasn't a slave and didn't punch a time dock. ’■ Thomas explained, when the i'nited Press asked him about i it. "I realize it looked bad to have Mrs. Thomas on the payroll j as my secretary, it was done only as a matter of necessity." He explained that he had used , part of Mrs. Thomas' salary to ' supplement salaries of two of his j other cleiks when his quarters were small and they were compelled to carry a much heavier j Ip-<l. When he obtained larger ; offices last fall, he said. Mrs. I Thomas was taken off the payroll , and another clerk was added in her place. The senator was quite pleasant and willingly explained ■ at length how his larger offices enabled him to dispense with Mrs. Thomas' services. He said he now has two extra temporary employes i who are costing him al-tout SSO a week out of his own pocket. He said he has to take a clerk home with him during summer vacation ' and pay all of her expenses. , There are similar explanations' ’in many cases. Speaker John N. i Garner's wife has been his secre-l I tary for years and she has given the government full and overflow-! ing value tor every dollar she has , drawn. Some and con- . gressmen feel that for confidential j secretarial tfork they prefer a ! member of the family. It would be easy to conjure up i a picture of a capitol full of plund- , erers stealing the public money in: I family graft. But that picture ' would be unfair. There is some leakage, which if it were not so small comparatively would be classified perhaps as graft. The house, and senate payrolls show numerous duplicates of senatorial and, ! congressional family names. Deserving relatives are taken care of in many cases. But the lob of • separating those who earn their i money from the phoneys is one I that will have to wait until conI j gross decides to investigate itself. I And by that time no doubt the ! depression will be over.
