Mathis was off like a bolt of lightning. He was four feet in front at 50 yards, but had to with stand a serious challenge at the tape by the veteran Ewell. Reginald Pearman, from New York edged M. Whitfield of the Army Air Forces in an 800-meter race that had the crowd gasping. Pearman, Whitfield and Tarver Perkins were even-stephen from 100-yards out when the winner and Whitfield launched their tape sprints. Pearman, a trifle strong er in the last 30 yards, won by a yard in the excellent time of 4:50.9 only nine-tenths of a second off the A. A. U. mark. Dave Albritton, successfully de fended his high jump title. Dave upped his old bones over 6 feet 6 inches, a height which eight other leapers stumbled over and settled for a second-place tie. Ewell locked spikes with Texas’ Parker in a fierce :21.0 duel over 200 meters. After a slow start which cost him two valuable yards, the flying Parker nearly caught Ewell at the tape. Winning by a foot, Ewell’s mark was only a tenth second off the A. A. U. record for the distance. Harrison Dillard. Baldwin-Wal lace, Berea, Ohio equalled his own ~3:3, in the 110-meter hur dles. He looked capable of world record-toppling feats Saturday, but the competition was not there to push him. Herbert McKenley also suffered from no competition. He finished two yards ahead in the 400 meters in :47.1. Dr. Steve Seymour of the Los Angeles Athletic club unleashed a prodigious 248 foot, 10 inch jevelin toss to topple National A. A. U. and American records. This was the most dramatic even of the afternoon. Negroes Among Topnoich American Athletes Of the three teams selected Srturday night by the National A. A. U. Track and Field Commit tee to tour foreign countries this summer, Harrison Dillard, Bald win-Wallace, 110 and 200 meter hurdles champion was named with the Scandanavian team which will go to Norway, Sweden Denmark, and possibly Finland, Holland, and Scotland, it was announced by Dan Ferris, secre tary-treasurer of the A. A. U. So far William Mathis, Univer sity of Illinois, A. A. U. Champ in the 100 meter dash, has con sented to go to Georgetown with the British Guiana team. Hav ing jobs, being married or going to school prevented others selec ted from making, the trip. Herb McKenley, 400 meter champion, wasn’t named on any team because only Americans are eligible. McKenley is a native of Jamaica, but has applied for United States citizenship and ex pects his papers in time for the 1948 Olympics which will be staged in London. * * * * Larry Doby, first Negro in the American League, has signed a contract with the Cleveland Club. He was with the Newark Eagles of the National League before go ing with the Indians. t >r><——>o<- >cu 'T>o A Complete Line of Religious Articles Sacramental Wines—Candles The Nebraska Church Goods Company 202 So. 12th St. Phone 2-7586 Lincoln 8, Nebraska n<—->o<->o<->n<->n<->n<->n<——>n<-> WHY long distance lines are so busy Long distance telephones are carry ing a heavier traffic load today than even in wartime. Business men in search of merchandise, manufac turers and builders in need of equip ment, naturally use the telephone as the quickest way to reach suppliers. Our long distance lines are still overloaded, so telephone “traffic jams” occur. If you have a few minutes’ wait when call ing long distance, please be patient. Today, as al ways, telephones carry a lot of important business. The Lincoln Telephone and Telegraph Co.

Today Lincoln's electric rates are among the very lowest in the Nation.
