CHICAGO, July 10 UP) Jim Lon dos, wrestling champion, was ordered by the Illinois athletic commission to meet Ed (Strangler) Lewis In a title match within 90 days, an encounter which would net him a 940,000 guar X antee or a privilege of 40 per cent of the net gate receipts. Sport Slants By Alan J. Gould Despite all the agitation about the matter, it is not only safe to say that the Olympic games of 1036 will be held In Berlin but that the United States will accept the invitation to compete, after considerable delay arising from the Jewish question, as 6oon as President Avery Brundage, of the American Olympic association visits Germany. Brundage is going abroad as an of ficial observer this summer. The Chi cago contractor, a former Olympic athlete himself and the president of the American Amateur Athletic union, has been entrusted by the A. O. A. to make a final investigation of the reports of continued discrimination against Jewish athletes in Germany and reach a decision. In the light of latest assurances from Berlin, as well as the counsel of the American members of the In ternational Olympic committee, I do not see, how Brundage can do other wise than notify the German author ities that the United States formally accepts the Invitation. Sound Grounds for Doubt There has no doubt been sound basis for the criticism of Germany's treatment of the Jewish Issue, which started out as a purely political prop osition but quickly got all tangled up with athletics. German Jews were, In effect, barred from competition or even the opportunity to have fair tryouta for athletic teams, according to trustworthy advices to American officials. Not even formal assurances from Germany's Olympic leaders served to remove the suspicion that such prej - udlce had been eliminated, and it was with the existence of this feel ing that the American Olympic as sociation again tabled the dynamite laden issue at Its last session in New York. The American attitude, rightfully so. is that the Olympic games should not be permitted to develop racial dis crimination. There have been many Olympic squabbles In the past and no doubt there will be more In the future but the basic world-wide char- 1 octer of the games has been and should be kept Intact, without being PORTLAND, July 10 W) Shoving across two runs in the tenth Inning, the House of David baseball team de feated the Portland Beavers 6 to 4 here Inst night. The Coast leaguers could do little against the pitching of Babe Dfdrlkson, feminine star athlete, and Ambrose. They were held to a score of 4 to 1 until a rally in the ninth netted three runs. Three rookie pitchers for thft Beavers allowed nine hits. The score: House of David 6 9 2 Portland 4 10 1 Batteries: DldrikBon, Ambrose and Hill; Houtchens, Appleby, Garretson and Doerr, Cox. , 4. ltv The Associated 'Press Coast league moguls who split the 1934 season two weeks ago patted themselves on their respective backs today. Club owners split the season be cause Los Angeles' overwhelming lead 18 V6 games when the first half ended made the race bo one-siaea the paying customers were staying away from the parks in alarming numbers. Now after two weeks of second half play, the Angels ore In third place. Hollywood Is in first, San Francisco in second and everyone happy, ex cept perhaps the Los Angeles owners whose team apparently will have to put up a real battle to cop the sec ond half crown. A tightening of the pennant fight appeared likely this week as Los An geles returned home for a series with the fast-moving Hollywood Stars and the second place Seals began a home town engagement with the heavy- hitting Missions. Portland transferr ed its series with Seattle to the Puget Sound city. TRACT IN IUSINESS CENTER LINED WITH HITCHING POSTS LATTA, S. C. (P) Horses and mules haven't capitulated to the automo bile after all. For the convenience of farmers, who come to town in great numbers on Saturdays, citizens of Latta set apart a tract near the business cen ter nnd lined It with hitching posts. Just so there will be no mistaking, the lot is identified by a big sign that reads "Free Landing Field For Horses and Mules." Qt'KEN HEE SHIPPED BY AIR ' MIAMI. Fla. W Officials of an airways concern here say their planes have transported about 76,000 baby chick3 from Miami to Latin-Am eric an countries since air express service was started a few years ago. The smallest shipment on record was a queen bee consigned to British Guiana. subjected to transient governmental whims end fancies. Too Late to Change It would cause the biggest kind of an upheaval now to shift the Bcene of the 1930 games. Only the severest) Indictment of Germany's at titude would be regarded as suffi cient grounds for so drastic a step. It would hardly be good business Judgment, let alone good sportsman ship, for the Teutons to give cause for the International Olympic com mittee to cancel its award to Berlin. In the first place it takes at least five or six years to prepare for the Olympics. Its organization is one of the most complex things Imaginable, calling not only for a tremendous pro gram of physical construction but the most exhaustive and detailed organi zation. Los Angeles laid the groundwork for its gigantic spectacle of 1932 more than six years in advance, as a re sult of which th4 games rose to new heights in splendor as well as com petitive achievement. Now Berlin for years has been planning and build ing a mammoth athletic plant which I will rival the coast layout. VI wryp 2. : $1.69 v XjBlMplP 1 Lot of WHITE I'OI'I.I.N I'NIEOKMH .
