norr is the only vaulter outside
this country credited with clear
ing 14 feet. 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.
