JAP SWIMMERS MAY TAKE LEAD Orient Has Three Finalists In Today’s Swimming Event — Los Angeles. Aug. Ift—<U.R>Japau's brilliant swimming team] threatened to regain its lead over, the United States stars in the, Olympic tank tests today as the University of California wonder crew faced Its first trial In the' eieht-oared rowing carnival. The Japanese have three finalists in the day's swim feature, the ; 400-meter free style, and America, currently leading the race for j men’s swim honors, had hut one' upon whom to depend. He is Clarence "Buster" Crabbe of Los Angeles. While men and women swim-1 ■era continued to record new : marks for their specialties, Kv ' Ebright's crew, winners at Pough ] ffeepsie and in Worcester's trials . to determine America's chief row - ■ frig representatives, took the water; against star crews from Canada. I New Zealand and Germany. The Californians were to row in the second heat. The first one will involve crews from Great Britain. Japan. Brazil and Italy, ] Meantime the many-ringed Olympic sports circus saw activity in gymnastics, boxing. equestrian- | ah ip. yachting and fencing. 1 Two beauteous stars were pro- i duced in the women's swimming ' championships.

I Sidney, Australia. Miss Holm,' America's best and ■ neatest in the liackstroke. estab- | llshed a new world and Olympic mark of 1:18.3 In winning her heat of the 100-meter backward swim. Miss Dennis brought the ■ 200-meter breast stroke title to I Australia by a games record 3:06.3 I I performance. Japan's swimming stars put on | ]a great show in capturing the I 800-meter relay. The Japanese made a new Olympic ’ record of '8:58.4 while finishing between i eight and ten feet ahead of the i United States quartet. Japan's time was nearly 38 seconds ahead of the record made in 1928. The relay victory brought 10 points to the Japanese who nowhave a total of 28 points compared to the 32 held by the American 1 ; men. Takashi Yokoyama of Japan ■ I dominated the 400-meter free style j semi final, making a mark of 4:51.4 in winning his heat, while Crabbe ; bettered the Olympic record of i 5:01.6 in taking first place in the i second heat. Water polo continued today as ] a potential trouble-maker. The near-riot and fisticuffs which re- . suited in disqualification of the I Brazilian team were echoed in ! yesterday's concerted booing of i Referee A. Delahaye of Belgium. ' The referee, according to the I Americans who were held to a 4-4 draw with Germany, was hostile | to the U. S. side. The spectators sided with the U. S. poloists. One agreed so .emphatically that he hurled a remark I that quite angejed M. Delahaye. He suspended play, called for I police and demanded ejection of I the offender. But the law was ; assured that it was all a mistake Iso they let the spectator stay ] since he had promised he wouldn't ; say other uncomplimentary things. Chief rowing honors of the poening day went to Bobby Pearce 1 of Australia who won the single ■ sculls over Bill Miller of the U.S.. | and to Poland, winner over .the I U. S. in its head of the two-oared I event. THE BIG FIVE (U.PJ ♦ Jimmy Foxx was idle. Babe Ruth made a home run in I five attempts, accounting for three tallies. Lou Gehrig singled twice in four 1 times up. Al Simmons was idle. Bill Terry doubled and singled in I four tries, accounting for one run. o * LEADING BATTERS * ♦ (U.R) ♦ Player. Club G AB R H Pct.

RACE TIGHT IN NATIONAL I Decisive Flop of Pirates, Puts Cubs Within Half Game of Lead II New York, Aug. 10 — (U.R) —The Chicago Cubs were ready to wrest I the National league leadership i from tlie Pittsburgh Pirates today, i I with the Cubs only one-half game ' behind George Gtlteon's outfit. If the Pirates extend their lon-j ing streak to 12 straight by dropping a double-header to the Braves.; and if the Cubs win another game] from the Giants, nightfall will find Charley Grimm's aggregation one and one-half game ahead. This will give the Cubs the lead which they held at intervals for, i some 40 days prior to relinquish-; ] ing it to the Pirates on July 3. I The Pirates lost their tenth con- ] I secutive game yesterday when' ' they were blanked. 4 to 0, by the. Braves, aided by th* s four-hit pitching of Walter "Huck" Betts. Carl Hubbell, pitching for the, Giants, gave the Cubs a 4 to 3 victory when he made two errors , in the ninth, permitting the Cubs > to score the tying and winning runs. Harvey Hendrick's fourth hit. a 1 single, drove in Manion with the' winning run in the tenth to give i the tail-end Reds a 9 to 8 triumph over the Dodgers. Danny Taylor made two home runs for Brooklyn and Chick Hafey made one forthe 1 Reds. The Cardinals blasted out 25] hits for an 18 to 13 victory over; the Phillies. Jim Bottomley led the Cards attack with two home ■ runs and two singles, driving in ■ six runs. Carleton, Mancuso and; Jim Collins also hit homers for. St. Louis. In the American league, the Yankees boosted their first-place lead to nine games over the Ath-' letics when Babe Ruth's 32nd , home run of the season gave the Yanks a 5 to 3 victory over the , Browns.

NOW that the Olympic track and field competition is over, winding up in spectacular fashion on Sunday after a week packed with all kinds of athletic fireworks, attention turns to the remaining sports on the Olympic program. Chief among these are swimming. I rowing and boxing. All three of these sports are on tap for this week, the closing week of the great international sports carnival at Los Angeles. The swimming events have already gotten under way. Several of the sprint swims and the men’s diving finals took place on Monday, while yesterday’s feature events were the ladies’ 200-meter breaststroke finals, as well as some relay events and a number of trials A great galaxy of invading swimmers are here for the Olympic
« 4 BASEBALL GLEANINGS | By GEORGE KIRKSEY VP. Staff Correspondent ♦— — ♦ Chicago. Aug. 10. — (U.R) — Some high spots, personal opinions and press-box chatter on the major league baseball season: That Hornsby's admirers think the Chicago Cubs lay down on him, I and that they will break their necks to win the pennant for Charley ; Grimm just to show up Hornsby who said they weren't good enough to cop the flag. That the bunching of four doubleI headers in five days on the road ' wrecked Pittsburgh's pitching staff and caused the Pirates to go into a nose-dive when they were well on their way to the pennant. That Brooklyn and the Cubs will hit the home stretch in the Nation-1 al league race neck and neck and .that Hack Wilson, Danny Taylor land Lefty O'Doul, ex-Cubs, may I turn the tide to the Dodgers. That the Athletics wouldn't be ■trailing the Yankees if Grove, FreiI tas. Bishop, Cramer and Coleman I hadn’t been injured. I That Al Simmons, A's outfielder, |is sick and tired of hearing Shibe park fans boo him and wants to play with the White Sox so he can be near his Milwaukee home. That Elias Funk, White Sox outfielder, wonld be one of the greatest players in the majors if he could hit and that Smead Jolley, | Red Sox outfielder, would be the , same if 1 he could field like Funk. That Rollie Hemsley, Cubs’ catcher would Ire the best maskman in the league if he would tend strictly ,to baseball and go to bed nights. That nine out of ten baseball J writers believe Vernon Gomez is ja greater pitcher than Bob Grove, iand adding that nine out of ten I scribes never had much use for i Grove who snubbed ’em when he ■ was unbeatable. : . That Chuck Klein, Phillies’ outfielder, is the National league’s most valuable player and that Jimmy Foxx, Athletics’ first baseman,
; races. Hungary, Japan and Australia, in particular, have very ' strong contenders in a great number of the events. An idea of how seriously the • Japanese have been taking the swimming events can be seen by the fact that K. Abe, foreign relations secretary of Japan's swimming team, flew to Cincinnati to see the ; American swimming tryouts last month in order to gather some use- ' ful information. The swimmers from Nippon have a style all their ’ cwn, with fast leg kick and an under-lunge stroke that fairly propels them out of the water. Australia's leading aquatic representatives arc "Bonnie” Mealing, . backstroke ace. and Andrew “Boy” i Charlton, who is favored to win in ■ the 1500-meter men' B free-style r event. Australian critics predict ! that Charlton will win this event in ■ ; world’s record time. “Boy” is an : 1 Olympic veteran, with a win in the
, is the American league’s most val- | aable player. That Monte Weaver, Washington pitcher, is the year's prize rookie i and that I .on Warneke, Cubs’ pitch-1 ier, is the year's most improved player. That Hack WiLson, who was railroaded by the Cubs and peddled by the Cardinals, has made the biggest comeback of the year and that i Freddy Lindstrom. Bill Terry’s exroommate, is the biggest disappointment. That the year’s three best southnaws are Gomez. Grove and Hubbell and the year’s three best righthanders are Warneke, Ferrell and Weaver. That Washington has the smartest and best defensive team in baseball, but that the Yankees I have the most power and pitching I strength and consequently will win 1 , II he pennant and then the world I series. That Babe Ruth, crippled leg and all, is still the deadliest hitter and I ■smartest player in baseball. ‘j That Jimmy Foxx will win the • home run crown but won't break i ■ Ruth's record of 60. m Body Os Deceased > Taken Home Today i The boay of John T.

SPANISH ARMY CALLED TO PUT DOWN UPRISING i CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE ,in which he called for establish-1 inent of a constitutional monarchy. i Premier and Minister of War ( Manuel Azana hurried to the war ministry as today's revolt began and began communicating with commanding generals everywhere 1 : except in Seville, which he feared will fall into the hands of the reI bels. The movement started in Madrid .when monarchists attempted an | assault on the governmental palace,; I communications offices, the minis try of war and the ministry of the' interior. I Various monarchist officers, wear-1 ing uniforms, were among the rebel ’ ] mob. The attack was repelled by 1 a special police riot corps, created by the republican regime. President Alcala Zamora was at the summer palace at Granja. A regiment of cavalry stationed in a suburb mutinied and began a march toward the palace. As the cavalry neared the ministry of war, I six po’ice riot squads fired a volley and the soldiers t>d. ** The movement broke out here just as the street lights were being extinguished. Monarchist officers , began gathering at strategic points ■ .near the palace and other govern-. , | mental buildings. ’ i Police commenced mobilizing immediately at their headquarters.] I Within a short time there was shooting. The firing could be heard' throughout the city. Most residents] thought it was fireworks. ' There was no hint of trouble when a marine officer, accompanied by three army officers, arrived at I II the telegraph office outside the post • ■ office, ostensibly to send a tele- ' i gram. Several civilians, wearing ■ green and white arm bands, arrived with the officers. They drew revolvers and pro-] ■ ceeded upstairs. There a policed man told them they must have
written authority before entering. I The civilians replied: "This is a verbal order given by General Cab-, anelbs, who’obtained the order from the chief of police." The policeman continued to refuse them admission. Meanwhile] oilier police arrived. They demand-] • cd that the civilians withdraw. | They said they would shoot if their I order were ignored. The invaders continued to argue., Then a young messenger boy, for provincial newspapers, slipped into] the telegram room and told the op-; erators what was.going on. They 'flashed word to police headquarters. I' Reinforcements quickly arrived and with them came Chief of Police Menendez. Without a word, he seized a rifle from the hands of | a policeman and started shooting. The police chief’s first shot precipitated the battle. Rifle and pistol fire battled In the square as the main body of rebels advanced. A disarmed officer of the juridical corps walked deliberately in ] front of the crowd toward the ad-' vancing mob. He was shot and ! killed. Police made numerous arrests. More than 60 had been jailed by, the time the uprising had been ] quelled. Labor union leaders notified Madrid area workers that they should I stand prepared to assist the gov-| ernment in the event of further out-| breaks. Two members of the United Press staff narrowly escaped Injury ' when they rushed to the rear of the ministry of war building at the | height of the shoi’ing. They were Emilio Herrer- and Eduardo Caa- ' tro. Once it was known the revolt had been quashed crowds marched in the streets, demanding the death penalty for the plotter! A I public services were functioning in normal fashion by mid morning. The only unusual manifestation was the presence of armed civil guards and police on the (streets. A few 'airplanes circled over the city. President Alcala Zamora arrived at 10 15 a. m from the summer palace and presided at a meeting of the cabinet —the second extraord-
