FAVORS U.S. IN OLYMPICS Coach Robertson Believes Team Will Win Many Firsts Los Angeles. July 27 -iU.R) rhe] greatest Olympic games in modern history, and a well-diversified al lot merit of championships were forecast today for the internation-: al contests by Lawson Robertson, head coach of the United States track nnrl field tt'Hlll

track ana neia xetun. Robertson looks upon his own, team as the favorite among the 4‘i nations competing, but he is fully, mindful of the powerful German, Japanese and Finnish threats and of th? brilliance of the British and Italian squads. "From the United States view point everything looks grand right now,” Robertson said. But everybody’s football team looks like a national champion in mid-1 September. ‘Discounting my own enthusiasm and looking at the general pictureon its merits 1 know we have a I fair chance of scoring plenty of, firsts.” ■Robertson is relying on three me® as certain point winners ini the dashes. These are Ralph Metcalfe, brilliant negro runner . .. I’l i: H’ .(.. .. . n.».

of Marquette; Eddie Tolan. of Detroit. another negro star, and George Simpson, Ohio Stage speedster, all of whom are entered in both the 100 and 200 meter events. "Metsner of Germany, and Stoneley and Rampling of Great Britain, are standouts in the 400mater contest." Robertson said. "But it should go without saying that we expect spectacular running from Hig Ben Eastman of Stanford and my own Billy Carr

ONCE attain the cry of the French is the immortal slogan. “They shall not pass!” From the lips of Henri Cochet, hear words come with some convic ' on. He alone of the French de■nders can speak, this year, of lidding the line. Os course the slogan refers this 'ime to the foreign invasion with he marching song of “On to the Davis Cup.” It is a tennis war. and naturally not as serious as the ocusion which prompted old Papa Joffre to utter the “They shall not nass” campaign fragment during •he hectic days preceding that Battle of the Marne. Nevertheless, considering the seriousness with which the French take their tennis. Cochet will be in the thick of a real battle this week when Messrs Vines. Allison. Van Ryn et al inarch to the Paris nets.

of Fenn. •'Possibly the most debatable event of the track games Is the 800. With Eastman out. Hampson. the British schoolmaster. Doc Peltzer of Germany. Larva of Finland, Johannsen of Norway, and Wilson of Canada, stack up as the principal rivals. For our team we ate depending upon young Genung of the Washington A. t .. Hornbostel of Indiana, and Turtle" : of Michigan, none of whom can be I counted out until the race is over. This is the event which promises | most hair breadth finishes from first heat until the final.” Robertson looks upon Thomas of England, in the 1,500-meter. Hill of the U S. in the 5.000.

larvenin and Peltona of Finland in the javelin, and Anderson of the U. 8. in the discus as the leaders | of their specialties. Robertson believes the hammerthrow will be a great shot. "Three of the greatest throwers . in the world are competing this: year. Lohan of It eland. Skold of, Sweden, and Parohla of Finland, are truly magnificent specimens., and I'm not so sure our boys can i I beat them. “The hop. step and jump, one] I of the most fascinating events of, : the games, looks today to be the I property of Oda. the wiry Japan-j ese. Jarvenin of Sweden is the decathlon leader " Robertson "gives” the 50,000 meters walk to Hank Gietnan of I Toronto whom lie regards as. for 11... I ...st in the field.”

"By far the best in me iieiu"The wav things stack up to-1 day." Robertson said. I think it s i reasonable to regard the United States team as a slight favorite. I Finland. Japan and Germany are. I I possibly, our closest rivals, and : Italy, Britain and Sweden bavej | top-notch teams. The competi-. tion. I believe, will be so keen as to provide the greatest of all the ■I modern Olympics.” f I o Get the Habit—Trane at Home

But Cochet. whom Ellsworth i Vines (not a bad racquet wielder himself, by the way) designates as “the finest stylist in the world .and > probably the greatest star the game has ever known” radiates confidence. He knows that the young American champion, who so generously estimates his distinguished adversary of the coming week, is an able, confident workman beneath a courteous surface. But Co'.'het also knows that the ratings still have him on the pinnacle of the tennis ; world for good reason. And this time there will be an incentive which was lacking at Wimbledon, when he failed. This time there is • the glory of France to uphold. They • shall not pass! i i Some say Cochet has gone back, t They all go back sooner or later. I Cochet himself has seen some of the

SCREW BALL i BEING USED Bafl'ling Delivery Being ('sed by National League Hurlers New York. July <U.R> 1,1 creased use of the baffling screw 1 ball is the outstanding feature of pitching this season in the Nation al league. The screw ball, i.ta .1 old Grover Cleveland Alexander's favorite deliveries, twists suddenly down ‘ and away from the batter like a fastbreaking out drop. Even Dazzy Vance. Brooklyn's veteran speed ball king, is following the crowd and using the screw ball. It seems that pitchers

in John Heydler's circuit have realized overnight that the Nation-1 al league ball, with its raised seams, is an ideal projectile tor, this fadeaway. Carl Hubbell. screw ball chain- , pion of the majors, beat his outI standing fade-away rival, Larry , i French, in a twisting duel yester- ; i day when he pitched the New j ■ York Giants to a 7 to 3 victory lover the first-place Pittsburgh j Pirates in the first game of a ' double-header. Chagnon replaced i French in the sixth, and Spencer ' followed in the eighth. The Pirates came back in the night-cap and beat the Giants. , *to 5. after a 10-inning struggle., ‘ Earl Grace, pinch hitting for PadI den in the tenth, singled to score ' Comorosky and Suhr with the twinning runs. Bill Terry drove,

The Pirates suffered a half-game loss to their lead by splitting the ■ double-header, and now are four games ahead of the runner-up Chicago Cubs, who downed the thirdplace Boston Braves. 7 to 2.

Lacoste, for instance, who was a shining star a brief few edi | tions back — and now a harmless shadow of his former self. Borotra whose attempts to flash his old-time skill at Wimbledon this year evoked , widespread sympathy — and many others. Will the Davis Cup pass this yea, to the United States? The English surprisingly eliminated by Germany in the trials, think so. They con sider Vines the greatest tennis star of the day—better even than Cochet -and they cannot see any contend ers wearing the French colors cap able of taking doubles honors away from Allison and Van Ryn. The answer will be available soon Will they pass—or shan’t they? * Cspyrlsbl. ISIS Kins Ksslures Syndlcsls. Inc

plained he had never proposed a military alliance between those countries but had suggested to Premier Edquard Herriot occasi, nol conversations between the General staffs of Germany and French to | allay suspicion and assure security of both nations. 'He held the opinion that it would be more desirable for a few members of the general staffs to meet informally from time to time than . to undertake elaborate discussions , at big international conferences. | In this connection, he referred to ■

France's insistent demands for security — Demands which he said Germany does n t understand in view of the Locarno treaty, the Kellogg pact, the demilitarized Rhineland zone and other safeguards. "Would leoabilitation of Germany involve restoration of the tnonar- i chy?” be was asked. 1 "We are faced with other ques-9 tions far more important, and the entire German trend of mind eliminates this issue from discussion at present." he leplied. "This does not | affect everybody's right to his own ideas, and I for instance, have b en ' a monarchist all iny life. But this problem simply doesn’t arise nw. ; The chancellor stated that the | I country will be in a position to d al with tlie communist meirace and I • that his government's present fight

against communism is aimed at spiritual and cultural Bolshevism, lie ..dded that th- Geiman communist party would not be suppressed or outlawed after Sunday's election. Before further discussion of int rnational tneasuies needed stir improvement of German and world conditions, the chancellor declared Germany would do its share at home not only by drastic.lly red icing public expenditure but "scaling down the apparatus to the Nation's poverty.” One of the chief reasons for Present world distress is the unequal distribution of gold, in Von Papen's opink n. "We need an airangement for redistribbution of the world s gold supply" he conti|ied. "Germany and other nations are crippled and f.irevented from placing t.ieir part of the world s busin-ss by curieucy troubles." Making the interesting pronouncement tint Germany does not intend to abandon the gold standard the chancellor confirmed that the supply of gold ind foreign currency behind Germany’s monetary sy.- tern is small, and asserted that steps 1 must be taken to 'ball drainage of , German gold supply. Wjile American and ether foreign bankers are seeking light on Ger i vast private debts abroad, he spoke reassuringly on this subject, reiter ating that Germany made every effort to fulfill financial obligations and wants to pay her debts. L He acid that if the question ol cutting interest rates on Germany's >pi ivate foreign indebtedness arises Germany will certainly not makt ... u „ 1.1 JI 1 .

any such move cnesidedly. but wil seek an agreement with her credi tors. He finally explained that hi confidently hoped agreement witl Germany's private creditors wouli obviate the necessity of a tranafe to a moratorium, (under which set vice on foreign debts would be paii in marks rather than transferee into foreign currency, and th marks payments wjuld be reinves’ ed in Germany, w He left no doubt concerning “Th disappointment Germany esperiem ed when the success of the Lai sanne conference was unexpected! cut short by the way the four powe Gentlemen’s agreement betwee Britain, France, Italy and Belgiui and the Franco-British consutath ipact were published and misunde
