Stockholm, Sweden, Juty 13. Amer

ican athletes won two more events at the Olympic games yesterday. . Fred

W. Kelly. University of South Cali

fornia, took the final heat of the 110-

meter hurdles, while Wendell and Hawkins, also representing the United States, ran second and third respectively. Albert. L. Gutterson of the University of Vermont captured the running broad Jump with a hew Olympic record of 2 feet 11 inches.

In addition, the United States fin

ished second and third In the discus, fifth In the modern pentathlon, and

won places in many heats In other NORTHERN INDIANA

events, tne n rials oi wnicn are yet to

be decided.

Thus far the Stockholm Olympic has

been a festival of general good feeling and good sportsmanship, in which a few minor clashes were inevitable. As far as the Americans can contrib

ute, the meeting will continue In that tenor to the end. An incident occurred, however. In the last heat of the semi-finals of the 400-meter race yesterday which for a time stirred up a small tempest. It was almost a repetition of the clash at the London Olympic when the American Carpen

ter was disqualified for fouling an Englishman In a similar sprint, and

the unpleasantness caused , In AngloAmerican athletics was a long time In forgetting. '

On this occasion It was a collision

between Germany , and the - United States. An Amherst divinity student.

Donald B. Toung, running under the colors of the Boston A. A., finished two yards in the lead In this race, but

was disqualified and the heat given to his Teutonic rival, Braun, who crossed the line second. The circumstances led the spectators to think the United States might protest, but the American committee, while considering the Judges' decision In error, accepts It

loyally.

The alleged foul occurred on - the

first turn fifty yards from the start.

The race was for blood, and there waa

The Cubs took things easy yesterday after their strenuous campaign against the Giants ana defeated tne lowly Bostonlans only by a margin of

Vto .2 in the first game of the new set. It was so easy that Larry Cheney was sent back to the slab, after working four Innings the day before, and registered a second consecutive triumph, although hit rather freely. Chance's men tantalized the men of Kling by keeping Just a run In the lead most of the time, keeping alive the hopes of the visitors that they might push over enough of the men who got on bases to cop a victory. It was a good deal like a wise old feline toying with a scared mouse before "absorbing It. In every Inning except two the Braves had one or two men on bases.

but at such times Cheney or his backers cut out the muffler and speeded up eaough to avert serious consequences. Twelve Bay Staters were lert stranded on the bases during the game.

CARL MORRIS KNOCKS OUT 'CON' C0MISKEY Sapulpa. Okla., July IS. Carl Morris, Oklahoma's original "white hope." knocked out Con Comlskey of Chicago early in the first round of what was to have been a ' fifteen-round go here last night. Adjutant General Canton, who was present at the command of Governor Cruce to see that the fight was not a "bloody affair," then stepped Into the ring, but Referee Rube Ferns had already awarded the fight to Morris. The principals entered the ring at 10 o'clock. The gloves were too small for Comlskey, and the 2,500

grreat rivalry between the two Ameri- j pef,pie present waited forty ' minutes

until others could be found. Round 1

tempted to pass him on the outside at &ni left aprain. Comlskey dropped and

the turn and was elbowed by Young, the full count.

The Judges made an attempt to stop Toung at the next turn, but without success. The Incident caused great excitement. The Germans hooted the Americans, and Manager Halpin ar

gued with the Judges.

When the mlxup occurred. Young,

Braun and a Swedish contestant were bunched. Young had the pole, the Swere was as close as possible on the inside, with Braun on the outside. They were so close together that they seemed to rub shoulders. The German sprinted Into the lead and then apparently slowed up. Young gave him a push with his right arm. With that

the runners straightened out ana alt

er an Inspiring contest came up the

home stretch at a terrific pace, with Young In the lead.

SOX DRAW DEFEAT IN TWO DATTLES World's Champs, With Bender and Brown on Slab, Win, 2-0 and 4-2.

Philadelphia, Pa., July 13. Connie Mack's big champions batted out two victories over the White Sox yesterday In the double-header that wound up the series here. Tney won the

first game by a count of 2 to 0 and the

second by 4 to 1. Butcher Boy Joe Benz was the. los

lng hurler In the first contest, pitted

against the great Indian, Chief Bene

er. . The Indian was splendid and

could have been beaten by no team on

earth.

Ed Walsh- was sent In to get the

second game and Connie Mack put a

young spitball filnger named Brown against the Chicago star. Brown was the better of the two and Walsh was forced to take a second licking In the

local series. The dougle debeat push

ed the Sox Into fourth position In the

flag race.

The batting of the Athletics was

timely In both contests, but it was de

cldedly peculiar. Whether they were

stealing the catche's signs or whether

they were Just outguessing the Sox pitchers cannot be told. It was one

of the two to a certainty, for they

were walking up on the ball and clouting It to the fence when hits were needed. When they were in the lead with the game apparently sewed up their ferocious batting stopped entire
