His mark of 14-2 and a fraction Is slightly better than the world amateur record of 14-M 4. held by Lee Barnes of Los Angers. Borneo, ihowover. Is only one of five American youths who have topped 14' feetf. V. S. May WW 1-2-3 Four of these. Including Barnes, Ted Lee of Yale, Fred Sturdy of Los Angeles and Bill Graber of Southern California, are candidates for the Olympic team. Without re sort to over-zealous patriotism we can easily visualize the selected American trio finishing 1-2-3 over the best that any foreign nation can produce. The only missing American "fourteen-footer." Sabln W. Carr, happens to be the Olympic cham pion and record-holder. Carr has retired from competition but, like the high Jump, the XT. S. A. is so well fortified In this specialty that the ex-Yale star's withdrawal Is not a source of embarrassment. Olympic Marks Soaring Carr topped the field at Amster dam four years ago with a mark of 13 feet, Q inches. It would cause no great surprise If at least three inches were added to- this height by the winner at Los Angeles, who is very likely to be young Mr. Graber of U. 8. C. No single Olympic event has re flected more, rapid Improvement than the pole i' vault. Twice vaults of less than 11 feet were sufficient to win, ; When Carr soared to his new record In 1928 he lifted him self three feet higher than the Ilrst Olympic winner needed to do in 1896. Most of this improvement, with tho notable exception of Hoff's per formances, has been registered by Americans. Of the 18 point win ners in the last three Olympiads, 11 have worn the TJ. S, shield. Oniber In Good Form Lee Barnes, a native of Utah and product of Southern California, wilt not be 26 until this July, but tho worlds record-holder Is a vet eran of two Olympiads. As a schoolboy ho won the champion ship In M24. at 12 feet, 11 Inches, but tho same height got him no better than fifth in 1928. He is now trying a comeback and. stands good chance of making his third Olympic appearance. Graber, even with a bad ankle. has been doing close to 14 feet this spring. Besides Lee. Yale has a pair of other young stars in Brown and Thompson. The veteran. Fred Sturdy, another Eli product is trying a come back, Verne McDermott and Tommy Warne, former Big Ten rivals, also remain in competition. From abroad come reports of four vaulters of 13-6 or better, rep resenting as many different coun tries, but thjc dispatches do ncf. state they arc consistent at tnis mark. Nlshtdn of Japan is cred ited with 13-7, Linblnd of Sweden and Wegener of Germany with 13-6 and Castro of Brasll. South American record-holder, with 13-5". Owe or two of these names mpy ap pear in the summaries at Los An gles, but It would be a shock to bur national confidence If one of them happened to be the winner.
