Tho speedy Haskell Indian, Wil son (Buster) Charles, has several times threatened to run up star tling point totals, but must Improve in the weight events before he can be considered an Olympic threat. Logical Cnmllduti'K He and Barney Berllnger, formpr "strong boy" of the University of Pennsylvania, both have scored around 7800 points and are the logi cal athletes to round out the Amer ican decathlon trio unless Plm Stewart of Southern California (who placed fourth in the 1928 Olympics), Clyde Coffman of Kansas or Al Le febre of the Los Angeles A.

The decathlon calls for the fine assortment of talent represented by the 100, 400 and 1500 meter flat races, 110-metcr high hurdles, broad Jump, high Jump, pole vault, shotput, discus throw and javelin throw. It Is a track meet all by Itself, Points 'are tallied on the basis of world records "as of 1912."

' Ellsworth Vines Takes Bad Defeat LONDON, June 15 (P) Ellsworth Vines. United States singles cham pion, was defeated by Harry Hopmnn of Australia In the third round of the London tennis championships at the Queens club today. The score was 0-6, 6-2, 6-3. & , . t Sport Slants I il'J' Alan. Leonid,' ', : (Associated Press Sports Editor) It's n gcod time now to post a few gridiron facts, while they can be taken In stride. Here's an Inter esting report from C. D. Locklln. sports editor of the Grand Forks Herald: "When the football season rolls around next fall the University of North Dakota will probably present the fastest backfleld squad In the country. If there are any others boasting as much sprinting talent as the Sioux, we will be surprised. "North Dakota has had plenty of fast men during the past four years when the school has taken on all ccmiers and lost but four games, but for sheer speed the 1032 season will cap the climax. "The ball carriers will be headed by Ralph Pierce, who played his first college football last fall. Pierce Is from Lafoure. N. D., and at the Eakcta relays in Sioux Falls, S. D., this spring he was clocked in 0.8 in the century. "Larry Knauf of Moorhead, Minn., who will be a senior next fall. Is Just a half step behind Pierce. His best time for the same distance is SPEKIl AXI MOIiH SI'KKK "Two sophomore backs, groomed fof places in spring practice, are a shade back of the veterans, but they can kick dust in the face of ordi nary ball carriers. Knute Belgum of Elbow Lake, Minn., Is a ten-flat sprinter, while Jerry Cope of Wa tertown, S. D., was caught In 10.2 on the track this spring. "This Is not local time. The boys have the proof. Four watches were on Cope when he turned in his 10.2, and he has. been giving all his time to spring football, as has Belgum. And they are all football players. Speed Flyer Gets Well Fast Recovering from Injuries received In the crash of his famous speed plane at Worcester, Mass., Cap tain Frank M. Hawks is shown above at Boston as he discussed plans, to set new ..speed records at high altitudes in a "mystery ship" which Is being built for him In California. Pierce, the lightest, . weighs 162 pounds. Knauf and Belgum. go over 180 and Cope Is Just under that. "The speed does not . stop with that quartet, for Coach C. A, West i has a 229-pound bone crusher in 1 Elnar Echholm of Iron Mountain, Mich., who can do a hundred under 11 seconds any day he steps on the track. , .. ' "No one knows whether North Dakota will be as strong next fall as they were last. West loses eight veterans, and among, them Fred Felber, an end on the A. P. third ull-Amcrlcan team, but you. can lay a bet that the Sioux will be tough. It will be the fastest and heaviest outfit ever turned out here. What it will lack Is experience." TIM'fe T FOKM The folks back home were not stunned by the spectacular spurt of Huck" BetU that planted him among tho leading National league pitchers. "Old Huck." as the 33-year-old Boston Braves rookie was known around St. Paul, was a consistent winner for the local club of the American association for several years. He led the league In victories at least one season while here and last year paced the Saints' hurlers in a successful pennant drive. .- Betts was one of the "smart" A pitchers In the loop. He didn't curve the boys silly, but his excellent con trol enabled him to pitch where he wanted to and keep the batters in the hole.
