RECORDS FALL AT OLYMPIAD I Athletes Turn in (Jreal Performances in Establishing; New Mark Ix»h Angeles, Aug. 2 — (U.R) — I Track and field athletes of the I Olympic games, with nine new j . records to their credit, swung to- ( I day Into their third program, and , 1 further wrecking of exist!»g marks , was in prospect. Establishment of records had ] become something of a habit since | the boys and girls posted five marks in tire seven events oft Sunday, and made four in yesterday’s five competitions. Here are the four newest ( achievements: Dusky Hddie Tolan's :10.3 mark' in the 100-meter final. This tied; | the world’s record, and broke the . Olympic mark of 10.4 he set in , Sunday's trials. Stella Walsh’s mark of :11-9 in ’ the women's 100-meter. This was also a new world record. Glen Hardin's 52-second achieve-, Iment in taking second honors In t!.- inn meter hunili s Hardin.| I,ouisiana "State freshman, finish-' ed a [Mice behind Ralph Tisdell of; Ireland in the final, but the free stater, timed at 51.8, knocked' down a hurdle. Tisdell was given 1 i the Olympic champonship and ; Hardin the record. The 9:14.6 mark of V. Iso-Hollo, of Finland in the second heat of I lice 3,000-meter steeplechase trials., i , The former steeplechase mark, in-l ] ■ cidentally, was twice broke*, for T. Evenson of Great Britain, turned in a 9:18.8 mark in the first heat, only a few minutes previously. Joe McCluskey, U. S. A., was second to Iso-Hollo. The one sure shot for a new record today should be in the women's 100-meter final. Stella Walsh, who finally decided to run for her native Poland instead of her adopted United States, didn't seem to be more than half trying when she won the preliminary heat and semi-final test in the women's century. Today's heavy thrill is predict- 1 •ed for the 800-meter final. A field of nine will start this severe test. The United States has three preliminary survivors. Canada and Great Britain, each two, and ,| France ami Germany one. each. The 800 meter brought out one of the -'incidents" which always mark these international competi-j tions. P. J. Keller of France, who, I quit before Ms preliminary heal J was well under way. |>Pbtestnil! 1 that he had been elbowed by Phil I Edwards of Canada, former N. Y.| 'U. negro ace. The trouble camel i at the first turn, soon after the , starting line. It occurred in a race ' involving only six runners. ToI day's final, with nine in the lists. 1 provided a ripe opportunity for , new trouble. The most surprising development ot the games to date was the official announcement that Tolan won the century championship. Everyikody in Cie south stands, including Lawson Robertson, head eoadi of the American team, believed Ralph Metcalfe, negro star, from Marquette, was the winner.| So did Tolan who congratulated his colored rival, and so did Motcalfe. elated over believing he had won. Study of official photographs of the Tolan-Metcalfe finish, made early today, substantiated the decision of the judges. Officials who oxamined the pictures believed that Tolan had won by margins ranging from a ,toot or so to a few inches. In addition to the men's 800i meter, and the women’s 100-meter, I these events will be run off today: 1 Trials of the 110-meter hurdles, the broad jump, women's discus, 200 meter first and second trials. 5,000-meter run. The United States was off to a j commanding lead in the track and field games. T.he unofficial point 'system used by the United Press ; and others gave the Americans 58 i points. Ireland 20. and Finland 16.! with two days of competition' I complete. Canada, jGermany and I I Poland each had 10 points, and! : the other points were scattered among nine nations. These fig-| ures were based on the system of| i giving 10 points for a first, and 5. 4. 3,2, 1. for the next five, places. There is no official system \as the games protocol recrgnizeis only individual, not national . achievement. City Tennis loam Wins Another Victory Lengthening its winning streak I to nine straight the Decatur City! tennis team defeated Fort Wayne., 4 1 in a match played there Suu ■ day.
