AMERICANS FAIL
TO WIN IN FIRST
OLYMPIC EVENTS

Over 30, 000 Attend
Opening 0 f Eighth
Olympiad —— Ritola
Smashes own Record

PARIS, France. July 7. (Special to
The Sentinr:l)——The American athlet-
es paved the way for heavy future
scoring today but. the high honon
rest. tonight on the Laurel brow of
little Finland. standing with a. lead
on points at the end of the first day
of the Eight Olympiad. A crowd of
welle over 30.000 sport lovers from
all quarters of the globe were pres-
ent at the opening. although occas-
ional showers droxe thousands 0m

 

 

of the open stands before the games .

were finished at. 8 p. m.

The 10,000 metre race was won by
W'illie liitols. who smashed his own
world's record‘and established a new
Olympic figure, coming home 250
metres in the lead of thirty-seven
others in 3U minutes. 23 l 5 seconds.
His only real competitor was “'ide
of Sweden.

The javelln throw, the only other
event. of the day, was won by Myrra
of Finland who broke his own

metres. Obersts. and Neuteldt, of the
American team tinished third and
fifth in this event respectively.

The games were. opened on Sat-
urday amidst a. blaze of color. Ex-
cltement ran high as the parade of
at. Nations wound its way around
the. huge stadium at Colombes
\vhrre the events are being held.

The games were formally opened
by Johnny liallahan. a. Boston
SD01’?S»“‘1‘H"I‘. who turned to the
American section of the grandstand
and led the spectators in a cheer
that. was purely,Amcr1can.

The American competitors are ex-
pc «tied to) come tnhiough victorious
“in at least se'xcntecn of the sched-
ulcd tw-enti -se\en eicnts. High
hopes are pinned on the American
tcams in the 100 and 200 metre
dashes; the 110 metre hurdles look
as though the sons of L'ncla Sam
will come out on top; the 400 metre
hurdles with George Taylor and
Charles Brookline. should easily be
annexed by the Americans as well
as the hichnump, shotyput. and dis-
cus throw. '

The 160”, 3000. 800 and 400 metre
run should also be. won by the wear-
ers of the r-‘lrl. white and blue shield.
In these moms America. has the
following entries: .1. Coard Taylor.
Raymond Robertson. Charles \Nat-
tors, Schu leer Erick. Bill Richard-
son, Jole ny, Edward Kirby. Jim-
my Connolly and others. Hoff. the
Norwegian polewaulting champion
will have some strong competition
when he meets Ralph Sparrow. Har-
old Osborne and Emerson Norton
seem to be. in a position to take
away the honors in the decathlon.
She clasaic marathon race looks easy
for the American entries with such
men as Frank Zun'a. Clarence De
Mar, Chick Mrlllor. Bill Churchill.
and Frank “‘endling entered in the
event_

Finland looks at; the present time
like the strongest contender for hon-
or: at the Olympic games. Finland
has a number of good entries in the
long distance runs and they are
banking on I‘Innnes Kohlemainen, to
take the hizhcst place in the cross-
country run.

There lies before Miss Edith Cum-
mings. as she prepares to defend her
national women‘s golf title. the
dainty shadow of one fair rival-
Glenna. Collett.

That. shadow has timed elusively
ahead of Miss Cummings on the
fairway and greens ever since Miss
Collett won the eastern title re-
cently with the most marvelous bit
devotee of the game. That display
of form and prowess. if retained.
cannot help but carry the .1922
champion back to the throne she
held in 1922-and lost to Miss
Cummings.-

In the eastern tourney. staged on
the tricky links of .Brae Burn. near
Boston. Miss Collett turned in a card
of 76'in the qualifying round. This
is Within four strokes of the mtn‘s
record for that course. And few
men who have traveled the 18 holes
at. Brae Burn have flirted with that
76 mark. let alone the course record
of 72.

Men's par for the course is 74.
The best amateur record made over
the 18 holes todate in 73. The 7‘:
record is a. professional's achiexec
merit.

One reason for the young mlss'
great score. no deubt. is her driving
ability. She ranks as one of the
most powerful women drivers in the
country. Her only rivals are Itil's
Cumming. Alexa. Stirling and Mrs.
Quentin Feltner.

Miss Collett‘s driving has Leon
likened to Gene Sarszen's. The ball
travels like a bullet. It holds to

within about 40 feet or the ground
and travtll consistently from 190 to
200 yards.

Another interesting feature of her
driving, according to close students
of her game is the distance she gets
on the roll. The ball has sufficient
momentum when it lands due to its
low .rapid flight. to carry it on an
unusual distance.

It is an odd coincidence that the.
women stars, including Miss Collett
seem to have acquired a. style simi—
lar to some star in the men‘s firms.-
ment. -

\Vhile Miss Collett's driving is
compared to that. of Ssrazen Miss
Cummings is said to tee off not im-
like Walter Hagen and Miss Stirling.
loyal Georgian that she is. has the
same style Bobby Jones. from her
home state. employs.

 

The ninth modern revival of the
Olympic revival of the Olympic
3%: will be held in the United
States. according to a dispatch re-
ceived from Paris yesterday. Hol-
land which had the bid for the 1928
games has stated through its repre-
sentstives that the country does not
reel financially balanced enough to

Williams Allows Locals
Six Hits and Strikes
Out 13 Batsmen in
Fast Game

The Nationals. local nine journey—
ed to Lake Mahopac yesterday and
were stopped by the the stators to
the score of 6 to 3.

The gsme~proved to be a great
battle between Lonchak and Wil-
liams. Lonehak pitched good ball,
and allowed the Lake slugger. but
seven hits, but errors by Lawson
and I. pair by Tarlov of hard hit
liners. enabled the New York team
to win while Williams pitched mas-
terful ball striking out 13 men and
allowing the local boys only six hits.

The Nationals had many oppor-
tunities to pile up a. win but lacked
the necessary punch.

The real big feature of the game
was in the sixth inning with the
tunes full and one ou Two runs
were already registere and Godeiu
nor was at. but. He hit a line drive
just left of short. Tarlov seemed to
stagger as his gloved hand was put
to the ball which was labeled for
extra. bases. and held on. then lash-
ed to second for the second out of
the play. Had it been necessary, a
triple play unassisted could easily
have been made as the man on first
was already near second.
