Batting Improved.
Since then he not only has fielded
well, but has shown distinct signs
' of emerging from his long batting
slump. His average for his last four
games stood at .313 today and he

victory of the season and increase
Pittsburg's lead over the second
place Chicago Cubs to two and

the Braves got only six hits.

Yankees pounded Hadley and Oooney
tot 18 hits, Including homers by
Joe Bewell and Arndt Jorge na, burled
the Bt. Louis Browns under a 16-4
score and stretched their lead to
seven and one-half games over the
second-place Philadelphia Athletics.
The Athletlca dropped two to the
Cleveland Indians, as the two clubs
picked up where they had left off
in their IB-lnnlng game at Cleve
land Sunday. Together they scored
30 runs on 63 hits as Cleveland
won, 8-8 and 13-7. Earl Averlll
clouted three homci? and Jimmy

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Cel., July
13' (AP) Sprinters, hurdlers, weight
men and other athletes trained in
Stanford's big stadium today In
preparation for final American Olym
pic tryouts maay and Saturday.
As the track and field store went
through their paces, It was definitely
announced Ben Eastman, Stanford
middle-distance ace, would compete
only In the 400-meter event.
The announcement from Alfred R.
Masters, general manager of the Stan
ford board of athletic control, was In
answer to criticism of the proposal
to hsve Eastman arbitrarily selected
for the 800-meter run In the Olympic
gsmes. "After the tryouts," Masters
said, "If the selection committee and
Coach Iwson Robertson wish to
shift Eastman, his coach will be glad
to consider the matter.
In the 400-meter event, Eastman
will be pitted against Carr of Penn
sylvsnla, his conqueror In the qusr-ter-mlle
race at the I. c. A. A. A. A.
meet In Berkeley.
Oene Venzke, mile running sensa
tion from Pottstown, Pa., predicted
whoever wins the 1600-meter trial
will break the world's record. He will
be opposed In this even by such
runners as Penrose Hallowell of Har
vard, Glenn Cunningham of Kansas,
Mangan of Cornell and perhaps Henry
Brockemlth of Indiana.
The appearance on the track of"
Ralph Metcalfe, Marquette negro
sprinter, brought many fans to the
sidelines. He appeared In perfect
