MEMORIAL STADIUM, Lin
coln. Neb., July 2. (AP) The
Illinois Athletic club of Chicago,
won the national A. A. U. senior
track and field championships to-'
day, with fifty-five points.
The Olympic club of San Fran
cisco, Was second, with twenty
eight, and the Hollywood A. C-,
third, with either 25 or 27, de
pending on the decision.. of the
winner of Xhe 100-yard dash. Los
Angeles A. C, was fourth, with 20,
and New York A. C. was fifth,
with 19.
Records Broken
One world's record was smashed,
another (was tied, two national A.
A U. records were broken and
two were tied.'
The Illinois club repeated its
triumpih, of a year ago, this time
in an afternbon of sweltering heat
and record breaking performances.
Johnny Gibson, a former Ford
ham star, smashed the world's
record for the 440-yard hurdles,
leaping the barriers in -52 3-5.
This clipped one aad three-fifth
seconds off the old mark estab
lished1 by J. K. Norton, of Stan
ford university, in 1920.
: 100 Yard Dash Mark Equalled
The world's record was equalled
in the 100-yard dash, hut just who
should be credited with this per
formance remains to be settled by
others than the contestants them
selves. Charley Borah; of the
Hollywood A. C, the 1926 sprint
champion,' was officially an
nounced as the winner. The time
was :09 3-5.
After the decision was an
nounced, however, the judges
were in doubt whether Borah
broke the tape ahead of Chester
Bowman, of the Newark A. C or
whether Bowman was -first to the
tape. Explaining the dispute over
the winner, Murray Hulbert, of
New Y6rk, president of the na
tional: A. A. U., said his decision,
declaring either Borah or Bowman
the victor, would not be made un
til he had an opportunity to view
the motion pictures made of the
thrilling finish, examine other
photographs, and take the state
ments! of the six judges.
Negro Wins Broad Jump
The national A. A. U. records
thrown into the discard were in
the six-mile run, and the running
broad jump. UeHart Hubbard,
former University of Michigan
negro star, competing unattached,
leaped 25 feet, 8 3-4 inches in the
broad jump, bettering his -own
reeord of 25 feet. 2 Inches,
made' a year ago.
Willie Ritola, the Finnish dis
tance! star, running under the col
ors of the Finnish-American A, C,
New York,8 set a new record in the
six-mile run, covering the dis
tance in 30:43 2-5. He clipped
47 3-5 seconds off the record,
madei by Phillip Osif, the Haskell
Indian, 1926 champion a year
ago.

Uli TENUIS TITLE
WIAfBLEDON, Eng., July 2.
(AP) The United States was pre
sented with another overseas vic
tory today by Miss Helen Wills,
sole, American- to emerge unde
feated from the singles of Wim
bledon's famous lawn tennis tour
nament. "Our Helen," with nerves cool,
scored a decisive victory over the
fiery Senorita Elia de Alvarez,
Spanish champion, in straight sets
at 6-2, 6-4, thus becoming the
first American girl to take the
title in 20 years. May Sutton,
now Mrs. Bundy, achieved the
honor in 1907.
It was a fitting climax for the
comeback which has been staged
by Wills since she was forced out
of nearly all championship compe
tition by illness of last year.
The Wimbledon title was taken
by Henri Coohet, conqueror of
William T. Tilden. His victory
over Jean Borotra, another of the
French "three muskateers," was
a five-set uphill struggle similar
to the semi-final match of Thurs
day, 'in which he eliminated the
former champion. The score was
4-6. 4-6. 6-3. 6-4. 7-5.
It was a dismal day and rain
always threatening. The attend
ants'waited until the last minute,
before Miss Wills and Senorita De
Alvarez started play, to remove
the huge tarpaulin from the play
ing surface. t ' , "
i From the start of the match.
Miss Wills st a terrific pace, and
at no time was the outcome in
doubt.

VYou tell the boys I might be
pretty wild tomorow, and they had
better stand back from the plate."
"Oh, what's the difference?
Your delivery wouldn't hurt any
body, even if it hit him in the
head."
This bit of repartee was ex
changed Saturday evening when
Biddy Bishop, former manager of
the Salem Senators and now pit
cher for the Eugene team in the!
Willamette Valley league, and
Frisco Edwards, present Senator
manager, happened to meet down
town. There was more alttng the same
line, as there always I3 when these
two prominent ball i players get
together; and while j it sounded
like kidding, there was real im
port behind it, for Bishop is slated
to wear a Eugene uniform and
take the mound against the Salem
team this afternoon, and all Salem
fandom is trying to' dope the re
sult. Bishop is best known here as
an infielder, but local fans who
have followed the game, closely
for the past few years know that
there Is no. "bunk" about his
ability as a pitcher. Last season
he finished several games in ac
ceptable gtyle, notably against
Kelso jn.d the Cycols. And two
years ago , -while playing in the
ast, he pifcthed bang-up ball
against some of he-fastest semi
pro teams availably
' Especially if its a Siloudy day,
Biddy's moist delivery Hfc a tough
article to deal with. Ami with
cuit Denma mm, a team that has
helped him to win every game he
started this year except one extra
Inning affair, the prospects are for
a hard day for the Senators.
Edwards has announced that he
will use his regular lineup and
will be back at his accustomed
place behind the bat, after play
ing in the outfield last Sunday
on account of an injured finger.
Wayne Barham has been selected
to start in the pitcher's box for
the locals.
.Remarks were heard frequently
Saturday, from people whoi are
planning to make trips over the
holiday week end, that they will
remain in town for this game be
fore starting.
