OLTMPIC STADIUM, Antwerp, Aug. 13. (By the Associated Press.) The seventh. Olympiad closed late today, amid continued rain and cold, so far as the track and field competitions are concerned, with a decisive victory lor the American athletes. Although the team is not consid ered as good as some that have come to Europe in the past to take part In Olympic games, the Americans rolled up a total of 212 points during the week of competitions, a figure more than twice aa great as that of the nearest rival nation Finland, with 105. Scoring on a basis of 22 points to any event allowed by the interna tional athletic federation, the team from the United States piled up ap proximately one-third of a possible aggregate totaU of 638. The Ameri cans scored In all but four events and were tied with Finland for first place championship honors, each na tion having won nine firsts. The United States was far ahead in second places won. with 12, and was second to Sweden in thirds, having won nine to Sweden's ten. The Americans scored ten fourths, twice as many as their nearest rival. They outranked the other teams in fifths won but ild not secure quite as many sixths os Sweden. Americans Lead Record Making.

MAYS SHUTS DOT TIGERS "LOOK OCT!" WARNS PITCHER AS CURVES BREAK CLOSE. Yank Fans Applaud as Man Whose "Bean Ball" Killed Chapman Appears on Diamond. NEW YORK. Aug. 23. Carl Mays pitched for the New York Yankees against Detroit today and shut out the Tigers, 10 to 0. It was Mays' first appearance in the lineup since the accident a week ago that resulted In the death of Ray Chapman, Cleve land shortstop. Mays pitched a steady game, and while the Tigers got ten hits off him. they were so well scat tered that they counted, for naught. The Yankee pitcher passed three men to first, but failed to strike out Detroit batter. Twige, when his curves brokes close to ' batters. Mays shouted, Look out. " That the New York fans were with Mays was evidenced by the reception given him. When he appeared in front of the grandstand to warm up he was cheered. This was repeated when Mays was announced as the pitcher for the Yankees and again when he took his place in the box. The cheering had hardly died down when Mays pitched a strike on his first ball to Young of Detroit, and the applause was renewed. As the game progressed, with the Tigers un able to score, fans shouted words of encouragement to Mays to "shut them out, and he, with the aid of his team mates, succeeded in doing this. Mays earlier expressed to several baseball writers his resentment of the reported movement of the Boston and Detroit clubs against him and reference to him as a "bean" ball pitcher. Both those clubs have pitchers who have hit more men this season han I have," said Mays. "Bush of Boston has hit ten men, and Ehmke of Detroit has hit either nine or en, while I have hit six."

Seattle and Los Angeles re having a tight little three-sided battle to determine which of them is to be relegated to the second divi sion,, with honors practically even. ut not as even as at this time last week. - - Unless San Francisco can keep up the hitch it took in its belVseveral weeks ago, the race may develop into femr-corner affair, with only a few points separating any of the four clubs. The Seals registered a de cided comeback, only to drop last week's series to Salt Lake, losing the odd game. They are once more in panicky territory. ' Vernon Open Here T-day. The Beavers and Vernon Tigers are cheduled to open a series on the Vaughn street lot this afternoon. ernon dropped its fifth series of the season in Seattle last week, tak- ng an unmerciful lcing at the ands of the battllngltainiers. so if Portland is going to do any hopping, they will have the opportunity to Jump on a loser this week. Bill Es- lck s team managed) to trim Seattle ut one game out of the series, nd was shut out in the run depart ment in both of Sunday's contests in the Puget sound city. The Tigers' play during the first alf of the season was such that if they could maintain it, there would e little doubt of their ultimately .inning the pennant, but the nearer team gets to the top of the list. the harder becomes the pressure. It is the first or second team which Is more prone to crack. At least this has been the experience in the past. Angela In Doubt Column. Los Angeles is having a hard time keeping itself in hand, and at the moment it is difficult to determine whether the team has a grip on it elf or is destined to do more slip ping. The last seven weeks shoT7 a gradual but appreciable downward slope for their charted lim ine Beavers were setting to cop the series over Oakland, only to run into a snag Sunday and taste the bitter dregs of a double defeat, when ne victory out of the two would have meant the series. However, but foe the wonderful work of one Hack Miller the tale might have been dif ferent. It was an (individual that pelt the Beavers downfall to a great extent Sunday and not the Oakland team s superiority. Walter McCredie. boss of the Port land Beavers, announced yesterday that he had purchased Outfielder Gatewood from the Spokane club of tne Pacific International league. Gatewood has been playing a bang- p game witn tne Indians and will oin the Beavers here today. . Fans will see a new first baseman in action with the Vernon club this week. That is, he is new since Ver non was last here. His name is Arthur Mueller, and he was pur chased several weeks ago from the Wichita club of the Western league by the Tigers. It is eaid Mueller batted .320 last season. Bill Gleason, Portland ballplayer. who at various times worked be hind the bat for clubs in the West ern association and Southern league and who for a time, when Harry woiverton was manager of the Oak land coast league club, played with that team, has left for the east to Join the Pittsburg Nationals. The last time Gleason was in ac tlon here he caught two seasons for the Foundation shipyard team in the shipbuilders' league. - This season Gleason has been flaying ball in the Southern Idaho circuit and was re ported to be going the best cliD of nis career. Del Howard of the Oakland rlub plans to 'recall several of his vohtie- sters who were farmed out to various casaba circuits of higher or lower degree. Paull, an outfielder, already has been recalled from the Pacific International league. Ginglardi. third sacker, and Mitch11, shortstop, or the same circuit, also will be yanked back for another trial in the Coast league. Manager Howard says tnat uinglardi has not been sold to Kansas City, contrary to renorts.

RICKARD PROVES CANNY Champion Can Sweat Off Some and Yet Reach Ring at 140 Pounds or Better. BY DICK SHARP. Benny Leonard, lightweight cham- ion of the world, will try to prove that he is still a legitimate light weight when he meets Eddie Fitzim- mons of New York in a 15-round scrap t Madison Square Garden September 5. To bind nia word that he ran make the recognized lightweight limit f 13d pounds, Billy Gibson, Benny s manager, has posted $20,000. How ver, this is what makes it good. Leonard only stipulates to weigh in at 135 pounds eight hours before the fight. Leonard can weigh in at 135 pounds ight hours before the match and en ter the ring weighing 140 pounds or more with ease. Making 135 pounds at that time does not mean that he is lightweight in the least. Anyone can boil out ten or even 15 pounds if necessary for a set time, but would have to be carried to the ringside in a stretcher. However, after an eight- hoir rest they would gain at least half of it back after a good meal or two and be as strong as ever. Trying to make weight to prove a point and making ringside weight to fight at are two different things. Ring Limit Would Weaken. Without a doubt Leonard can make 135 pounds and perhaps 133 pounds, but at that weight would not be in any condition to defend his title as the' champion of the world against a formidable contender. Eddie Fitzimmons, the Yonkers bat tier who has been selected to give Leonard the acid test in the latter's home town, is rated among the five best men in the country in the divi sion. He has suffered defeats, as have all mittmen, but on the whole has as good a record as any boy at his weight now boxing. It might be interesting to mention that about three years ago Eddie Shannon, the Los Angeles light weight who is now living in Portland, made a punching bag out of Fitzim mons for ten rounds and won hands down. Fitzimmons has evidently been im proving steadily since that time, while Shannon can hardly be said to be ris ng in the profession at any great rate these days. Fitzimmons is a left-handed miller la Johnny Wilson and may south paw his way to a verdict over Leonard the same as Wilson did over Mike O'Dowd in Boston some months ago. It can be depended upon, though, that the referee won't be the one to present Eddie with any title gratis with Benny Leonard boasting of Billy Gib son as his manager. Long Boat New Experience. It will be the first bout of 15 rounds' duration that Leonard has ever taken part in and one of the few that he has fought in his home town since he won the title from Freddie Welsh before the war. Jimmy Duffy and Willie Hunefeld will box the main event in Oakland tomorrow night. It will be Jimmy's first fight in several months. Eddie Gorman, brother of Joe Gor man, who fought in Portland several years ago, will meet Jimmy Roach on the same bill. Bud Ridley, the Seattle bantam weight who rose from the preliminary ranks to the sensation of the coast in several months under the guidance of Fred Winsor, has left San Fram Cisco for Benton Harbor, Mich., with Winsor in charge. Bud will work out with Jack Dempsey while the latter is preparing for his Labor-day fight with Billy Miske. LOXG FIGHT CARD ARRAXGED White-Moran Main Go to Draw Gcod Sounding Prelims.
