    Great Britain Triumphs Over United States in Olympic Sprint Event
■ ..I"...
Liddell Wins
400-Meter Dash
in Record Time
J. C. Taylor, Former Prince
ton Star, Makes Poor
Showing, Finishing Fifth
—Chicagoan Second.
By DAVIS J. WAIiSH.
Colombe* Stadium, Paris, July 11.—
Great Britain handed America an
other hitter disappointment this af
ternoon In the Olympic stadium when
E. H. Liddell won the 400 meter
dash in a new world record time of
:47 3-5. It was the third time In two
days tire record was smashed.
H. Fitch of the Chicago Athletic as
soclatlon was second; G. M. Butler of
England, third; Johnston of Canada,
fourth, and J. Coard Taylor, former
Princetonlan, fifth.
America was confident of winning
the event after Fitch set a new
■World's record of 47 4-5 seconds In the
first semifinal heat this morning
Liddell won the second semi-final
heat but took 48 1-5 seconds to cover
the distance* and few expected him to
furnish sturdy opposition to the
United States flier.
Fitch was In second place all the :
way but was never able to cut down
the gap that the flying Scot opened
at the start and gradually widened.
Imbach tripped and fell In the
stretch and failed to finish. He was
running fourth at the time.
Taylor also fell In the stretch when
he was pressing Butler for third
place. He got up, however, and
hobbled across the line, to add two
points to the American total.
Taylor pulled a tendon in the trials
yesterday. He limped to the starting
line this afternoon and could not get
the kinks out of his legs during the
first 200 yards. Finally he found his
speed and was closing fast on the
leaders when he tripped over a stake.
Altogether, It was not a brilliant
day for the Stars and Stripes.
The second and fifth places in the ,
400 meters added seven to the United ,
States’ total, giving them 184 points ,
to Finland's 103. The English run- ,
ners In the 400 brought their coun- (
try's total to 61%, while the others ,
trailed as follows;
Sweden, 24%: France, 13%; Switzer- f
land. 11; Hungary, 7%; South Africa,
5; Canada, 5; Norway, 4; New Zea
land, 4 Denmark, 3. ,
The 10,000-meier walk finals ended (
with but one American qualified, (
Harry Hinckle of the Glencoe Athletic (
club, who earned his place yesterday.
Charles Foster of Detroit was dis
qualified today when the judges de
cided he was running. The other
finalists will he Frigerio of Italy.
Fradegrada of Italy, MacMaster of
South Africa, Schwab of Switzerland (
and Clarke of England. This Insures (
the United States of at least one ,
point. i

_ O
By AhHoclated Prr»*.
Courdevole, France, July 10.—The
Vale crew, which will contest for the
Olympic title, displayed real strength
ard spurting power in the course of
a number of trial sprints on the Seine
this afternoon.
Coach Edward t.eader Is accustom
Ing Stroke Alfred D. Hlndley and !
Coxswain I.aurence R. Stoddard to
take starting directions In French.
Today at the coach's final “partez,"
the bluebladed oars dug the water
with a mighty tug, shooting the shell
up the river like a projectile from a
field gun. I.tndley, in the course of
two one minute sprints, hiked his
brawny-backed followers up to
The crew was rowing with the same
beautiful precision with which It
triumphed over Harvard.
The members of the crew appeared
to be “fit as fiddles," the muscles un
der their toughened skins rippling
rythmically as the boat sped ahead.
A large crowd gathered at the Cour
devoie bridge and along the river
side and cheered lustily.

Rurdi Can't Afford to
Take t hances Now.
THE ol' Jink still follows the Oma
ha Buffaloes.
In 192S the Omaha elub was
going strong and waa In first place
when along came Mister Jinx and
socked the Buffalo a hard wallop
right on the breeder when Tony Da
fate "Jumped'' the team and again
when Harry Manush, second baseman
"jumped ." Following the Jumping of
these two players the Buffaloes slip
ped right down the standings.
This year the team is playing the
best baseball it has played since
Barney Burch look hold of the club
as owner, and the best in the league
for that matter, hut just how lone
those Buffaloes will continue along1
that line Is another question. Wo
hope they never let up, hut with
Jimmy Wilcox, crack third baseman,
on the hispital list It is doubtful If the
rluh ran run along like It has heen
doing with "Hap" I.enahan at third.
I.enahan Is utility man for the Buf
faloes He's just a younster In base
ball, but has a mighty promising fu
ture. He can play any position on 1
the field, but looks best behind the |
hatter. While Wilcox Is out of the
game, “Hap" Is playing third and j
playing the sack the best he knows
how. He Isn't a polished third base- j
man as third basemen go In the
Western league Therefore Omaha is
weak at this position and the enemy |
knows It.
Monday Pcs Moines started rrark
Ing the ball down third base way,
Hcnahan made four assist* and
caught one high fly, Nit one rotild
ses that he wasn't anv too sure of his
fielding. In the sixth Inning Burke
lined a fa«t one down toward Icna
bin who ran in on the hull and In his
haste tn field the roller acridenally
kicked the ball with Ills fool. Burke
w.is on second ba»e before Icnahan
could field the hit.
Icnahan may Improve bis fielding
day by day We sure hope lie does for j
be Is In there trying all the time end
deserves a helping hand for his work,
hut the eltib,( lending the lenrue,
can't afford to take chances at thia 1
time of the race.

Oklahoma City Outplays Man
ager Griggs’ Crew From
Start of Game—Herd
Uses Two Hurlers.
By RALPH WAGNER.
THOSE Buffaloes played about tb«
worse kind of baseball for four
innings yesterday and then with
that bad baseball out of their systems
settled down and displayed a little o(
the brand that has kept them on top
of the standings, but was too lain
and they dropped the final game of
the series to Fred Luderit*' Oklahoma
City Indians by the score of 9 to 2.
Omaha never had a show. It was
nothing but the Redskins from stsrt
to finish. Oklahoma City was out
to cop one game of the series, having
lost the first two and the Indians
were not to be denied victory. They
socked the deliveries of Bill Bailey
and Joe Dailey for nine runs on 11
hits. The hits yielded by the Buffalo
pitchers were enough to win a couple
of ball game*, but the support of the
entire Omaha club crumbled like a
dried out cracker during the first
four Innings and the visitors took
good advantage of the poor playing
on the part of Barney Burch s hired
hands.
