Tho punch that turned tiro ym-

toward Walker came after the bell
had ended the eighth round. Pau

and stepped back and, as he did,

World record. 1:60.0, by
Sera Martin, Prance, 1028.
NEW YORK, My 37 W Dig
Ben Eastman, If. he essays tho iron
man rola In an attempt to register
an Olympic "double," has It well
within his powers to smash the
British resistance, which like its
famous fighting squarev has been
Impregnable at 800 meters in the
lost three Olympiads.
The chance far It Is now gone but
what rabid track bug would not
have given something approximat
ing his right eye to see, with tlie
left, a duel down the stretch at 800
meters betwen big, gangling East
man and slim, magnificent Douglas
Lowe, British winner of 1024 and
10281
Eastman, this spring, raced to a
new world half-mile record of 1:51:3
shortly after ho had lowered the
world 440 record.
X saw Lowe, on a steaming hot
London day four years ago. In his
second race of the Anglo-American
meet, romp his half-mile leg of a
relay In exactly 1:51. On that
afternoon, lud the opportunity been
offered, I believe fcowe could have
cracked 1 :5d for tho 880.
Lowe Now Hetlred
Lowe has now; retired, from, all
competition but his great record,
not only as the only double-winner
In tho Olympic 800 but as a sports
man and stylist In running form,
leaves considerable for the new gen
eration to shoot at.
His farewell to the Olympics was
a record of 1:51:8, shading by one
tenth second the mark set by 1R-ycar-old
Ted Meredith In the 1013
games.
Ilnmpsan. New Threat
Even without Lowe to worry
about, Eastman mny hove to be at
his best to bent off one or two out
standing foreign challenges. Includ
ing the new British threat of Tom
Ilnmpson. Hnmpson won the Eng
lish half-mile championship last
summer in 1:54:8 but his best time
is close to 1 :53.
Dr. Otto Peltwr of Germany,
holder of the official world record
of 1:51:6 for the 880 (which East
man bettered! is not likely to be n
factor, despite his comeback. Tho
doctor has never regained his 1026
peak. Prance has two stars In Sera
Martin, sixth In the 1028 final after
petting a world record at 1:50.6 and
Paul Keller. Canada has a real con
tender In Alex Wilson, who Is now
running for Notre Dame university,
tiennng Once Host
Until Eastman raced to the front,
the best American 800-meter pros
pects appeared to be Eddie Oenung,
the national 880-yard champion,
and Russell Chapman, formerly of
Bates college. Gcnung won the
half-mile title in 1:53.6 lost July.
Chapman looked like a coming world
champion two years ago. He ran
1:51.5 Indoors but he Is now work
ing In a Providence bank, doing
11 tie training, engaging In less com
petition and may not bo able to
show a return to form.
Eastman, Oenung and Chapman,
all In top form, might sweep the
Olympic race but the uncertainties
mny offer chances for runners like

the American team.
Meredith's Uraina 'Greatest
The most spectacular of all the
Olympic 800-meter finals undoubt
edly was that of 1013 when the
schoolboy Ted Meredith, with an
astonishing burst of speed, whipped
his more experienced countrymen.
Met Sheppsrd and Ira Davenport, in
a blanket finish and world record
time. Meredith, who was instruct
ed Just to set the pace for Shep

and nrver was headed. His time
was 1:51.9. Sheppard and Daven

N. B. A. Feather
Belt From Pena
DETROIT, May 27 Wt Tommy
Paul, game little warrior from Buf
falo. N. Y., today wears the Nation
al Boxing association's belt, emble
matic, of the featherweight cham
pionship. He won it handily last night by
outfighting Johnny Pena, rugged
New Yorker, throughout mpet of
the 15-round final bout of a tourn
ament to fill the vacancy left when
Bat Battalluo outgrew the division.
Referee Slim MJcClelland's score cord
gave Paul -every round but the sev
enth. , .
In his dressing room after the
fight, the new champion said he
would defend his title here In Sep
tember against Pldel La Barba. Pena
ellmlnntcd La Barba several weeks
ago In the tournament 6emJ -finals
on a decision which fight fans pro
test to tills day.
Last night's go was the first 15
rounder for either fighter and In
the tenth it looked as if Paul was
fading and might lose the advan
tage he had piled up through a
steady cross-fire of lefts and rights.
But midway in the round, he
caught Pena with a solid blow high
on the cheek. Pena's knees wob
bled and the crowd howled for a
knockout.
Paul delayed his coup de grace
too long and Pena clinched until
his heod cleared, but the temporary
success Imbued the ultimate winner
with the courage needed to carry on.
In the seventh. Pena caught Paul
in a corner and shook him with
half a dozen straight lefts and right
hooks to the head. The fighting
was fairly even in the early rounds
and in the eighth and ninth.

One Blow Fatal
To Senators In
Thursday's Tilt
" By Ottj-le Tullot
AsBoclated Press Sports Writer)
One bad pitch a game, one ball
that gets-away from, the pitcher and
goes down- the batters alley, can
very easily cost a good team a pen
nant, said Walter Johnson recently
Ul explaining his preference for
moundsmen with tight control.
As If to bear out his boss' con
tention, Oencral Alvin Crowder of
tho Washington Senators tossed one
up that exactly suited Lou Gehrig
of the Yankees In the sixth Inning
of yesterday's tilt between the
American league pace-setters. Three
vanird uim on hnse at the time and
Gehrig, further bearing out John
sons theory, spanned tne oan
the right field fence. The Yanks
gathered another run In the ninth
for a final score of 5 to 0. but It
was Gehrig's blow that knocked the
wind out of the Senators. Charley
Buffing didn't give them a hit the
last six innings.
The victory perched the Yankees
on top by four full games and left
the Senators with only a two-game
lead over the third place Detroit
Tigers, who were beating Chicago,
11 to 2, In the first half of a sched
uled doubleheadcr. The second
game was rained out In the fifth
with the count tied. 1 to 1. .
Jimmy Foxx hit his fifteenth
home run of the year, as the Ath
letics pounded out a 7 to 1 win over
Boston. Cleveland and St. Louis
were rained out.
The Boston Braves dropped off the
National league pinnacle, yielding to
the idle Chicago Cubs, when they
got the worst of a slugging match
