NINE RECORDS SHATTERED IN EARLY OLYMPIC BATTLES

Four Marks Fall in Monday's Five Events Eddie Tolan Cops 100-Meter Crown in Thrilling and Disputed Finish With Metcalfe; More New Standards Expected in Today’s Tilts. BY STI'ART CAMERON United Pres* Snorts Editor LOS ANGELES, Aug. 2—Track and field athletes of the Olympic games, with nine new records to their credit, swung'today into their third program, and further wrecking of existing marks was in prospect. Establishment of records had become .something of a habit since the boys and girls posted five new marks in the seven events of Sunday, and made four in Monday’s five competitions. Here are the four newest achievements: Dusky Eddie Tolan’s 10 3 mark in the 100-meter final. This tied the trials reCord ’ and broke the °B' m Pic mark of 10.4 he set in Sunday s Stella Walsh's mark of 11.9 in the women's 100-meter.

Yankees Get Wiley Moore By Timm Special DETROIT, Aug. 2.—Joe McCarthy’s plea for a smart veteran relief hurler to support his shaky pitching staff was answered today when the New York Yankees obtained Wiley Moore from the Boston Red Sox. Gordon Rhodes, youthful right-hander, was sent to the Sox in the deal, and it is believed the Red Sox treasury also was boosted. Moore was a relief pitching hero with the Yankee championship teams a few years ago. McCarthy's pitching has been so poor in recent games that Babe Ruth, who hasn't pitched since he tried one game in 1930 and beat the Red Sox, has been warming up in the bull pen.

Jurado Misses P. G. A. Tourney By United Press DETROIT, Aug. 2.—Jose Jurado, flashy Argentinian pro, failed to qualify Monday for the American Professional Golfers Association tournament when he was eliminated in a playoff for the sixth Michigan position by Leo Frazier, Saginaw (Mich.) youngster. Jurado scored 39 in the nine-hole playoff, after he and Frasier had tied at 150 in the 36-hole qualifying round. Frasier shot 36. The others to qualify from this district with their scores were: Orm Beaupre, 143; A1 Watrous, 145; Tommy Armour, 146; Walter Hagen, 147, and Tommy Filmore, 149.

‘Go to It, Jimmy,’ Says Babe, Predicting Loss of Homer Record to Foxx

BY BABE RUTH D'ETROIT, Aug. 2.—The way Jimmy Foxx has been slamming those home runs around all American League parks this season makes it look as if one of, my cherished records is about to fade. I refer to the mark for home runs in one season. When I hit sixty in 1927 many said that performance would never be excelled. That was only five years ago and here we are seeing the possibility of anew record being established. All I ran say is “Go to It, Jimmy, and get yourself a record that will still be in the books when you hang up the old uniform and toss the spike shoes in some convenient corner of the farm house. You deserve all the good things that baseball may bring you and my congratulations will be among the first,

The one sure shot for anew 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 semifinal test in the women's century. 800 Meters Is Feature Today’s heavy thrill is predicted 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 and Germany, one each. The most surprising development of the games to date was the official announcement that Tolan won the century championship. Everybody in the south stands, including Lawson Robertson, head coach of the American team, believed Ralph Metcalfe, Negro star from Marquette, w'as the winner. U. S. Takes Lead Study of official photographs of the Tolan-Metcalfe finish, made early today, substantiated the decision of the judges. In addition to the men's 800meter and *he women’s 100-meter, these events will be run off today: Trials of the 110-meter hurdles, the broad jump, women's discus, 200meter first and second trials, 5,000meter run. The United States was off to a commanding lead in the track and field games. The unofficial point system used by the United Press and others gave the Americans 58 points, Ireland 20 and Finland 16, with two days of competition complete. Canada, Germany and Poland each had 10 points ,and the other points w'ere scattered among nine nations. These figures were based on the system of giving 10 points for first and 5,4, 3,2, 1 for the next five places. There is no official system, as the games protocol recognizes only individual, not national, achievement.

you get the day you hit that sixtyfirst home run.” Naturally we all get a kick out of doing something which has not been done before. It would be nice to have that particular record of mine hold up for several years to come. Every man likes to have some unusual accomplishment connected with his name. But there is another way that I look at these things now. Players and fans alike were pulling for me to set new records in the years when I broke them. 1 gladly join in the army of well wishers now for any younger player who has a chance to establish new marks, even if they happen to improve on the ones which I set. Such accomplishments help baseball, no matter who does them. The fans got anew kick out of it. Baseball has been good to me and 1 am for

anything that helps baseball, even; though some of my own records must be toppled. Foxx is a great hitter. It is doubtful that any other hitter in the history of baseball could drive ; a ball farther than Junmy has driven them. We hear a lot about the lively ball, but I figure that any j man who can drive a lively one so 1 much farther than any of the other players would also have stood out as the greatest driver with a less lively ball. Foxx is no “single park” hitter. That is what we call a player who is particularly successful in one park and rather helpless, comparatively j speaking, in other fields. I was looking over Jimmy's figures the other day noticed that he was getting more homers away from home than at Shibe park, If,

there was an idea anywhere that Foxx specialized in hitting the homers at Philadelphia, where such hits have been quite plentiful this year, it is a mistake. Jimmy had forty-one homers when I made the check-up, and nineteen of these had been hit at Shibe park, where the A's had played more games than they had played away from home. Every other city in the league was represented in the record. Jimmy had ht eight in Detroit, three apiece in Washington. Boston and Cleveland, two apiece in New York and Chicago. and one in St. Louis. I never went into the month of August with forty or more home runs, as Jimmy did this year. In 1927, when I set the record, I had only forty-three at the end of August, and finished up with seventeen

in September, the best month I have ever had. The A's still have fifty games to play, and that is why I expect to see Foxx set anew record. It is possible, too, that Jimmy may win the double distinction of being the home run leader and the major league's leading batsman in the same year. He has been stepping along at the front of the parade a good part of the season and probably will finish with a mark above .350. He also may shatter the runs batted in record held by Hack Wilson at 190. Jimmy is making a great hitting comeback this year, after falling to .291 last year, his only season under .300 since he first joined the A's in 1925. A great hitter and a grand fellow is Jimmy Foxx. and I say more power to him. (Copyright. 1932. by The Christy Walsh Syndicate and The Timew

B\t United Pres* LOS ANGELES, Aug. 2. Twelve years after Charley Paddock won his last 100-meter Olympic games championship, the steel-black, pis-ton-like legs of Eddie Tolan of Detroit regained it for the United States. Two Negroes flashed down the slate-gray crack to break the tape a fraction of a second apart and tie the world's record of 10.3 seconds here Monday. They were the short, pudgy Tolan and the lithe, muscular Ralph Metcalfe, "Black Panther” of Marquette. So close wore they at the finish that official photographs were necessavy to determine Tolan's victory margin. The camera showed Tolan tvas two inches in the lead, though he himself did not know it, and pursued his rival teammate up the track to congratulate him. u * n YOSHIOKA of Japan held the lead for forty meters and then fell back to finish fifth. Tolan ran w'ith a rhythymical stride. At forty meters he took the lead, and the other five wore bunched behind him, Jonath heading the pack. Metcalfe, powerful muscles hurling his big body forward, began to come up shortly aftpr Tolan took the lead. Finally he drew even with Tolan and they broke the tape, Tolan upright, Metcalfe leaning forward. Later analysis showod this probably gave Tolan the victory, as Olympic races are decided on the basis of a man’s entire body crossing the finish line. The official time of 10.3 seconds tied the official w'orld record set in 1930 by Percy Williams of Canada. It was three-tenths of a second under the previous Olympic mark.

BY EDDIE ASH Times Sports Editor The Indians' A. A. schedule was altered today to permit the Tribesmen to engage in a big league exhibition game with Connie Mack's Philadelphia Athle'tics at Perry stadium this afternoon at 3 o'clock.

The Hoosiers will swing back into American Association action Wednesday afternoon and Eddie Zwilling’s Cowboy Blues will be their opponents. Manager Mack promised to place his regular lineup on parade in the exhibition, including the new home run king.

The Athletics are fresh from two sensational 1 to 0 victories over Cleveland and are in second place in their flag chase. The Mackmen helped open the new municipal stadium at Cleveland Sunday and played before more than 80,000 fans.

The Indians lost another tough one under the lights Monday night and Columbus left town tied w'ith the Hoosiers for the A. A. runnerup berth, leaving Minneapolis seven games out in front. Si* and Five Hits Bill Thomas. Tribe right-hander, matched his mound skill against two Columbus aces and lost, 3to 2, twelVe innings. He allowed only six hits over the long route, but the Indians were held to five blow's. Thomas fanned nine and issued four w'alks, one intentionally. Paul Dean hurled seven rounds for Columbus, allowing four hits, and Bud Parmalee pitched five stanzas, holding the home nine to one safety. Dean fanned five and Parmalee six. The Tribesmen were leading. 2 to 1. going into the ninth and a wild throw' paved the w'ay for a Bird marker, tying the game. Anderson, first up for Columbus, bunted to Thomas' right and the Tribe pitcher slipped on the soft turf and fell. He tried to make the throw anyway and the sphere w'ent far over Wingards head at first and Anderson dashed all the w'ay to third.
