(AP) On ft day that calls for a big hand for a great little guy, BUI Carr, for his marvelous 40-meter triumph over Ben Eastman In 46.3 seconds, and that also might have been given over to paeans for America's first Olympic 6000-meter champion, the tenth Olympiad wu rocked today by reverberations of the greatest up heaval since the battle of 1008. The central figure of the contro versy was Laurl Lehtlnen, Finland's " greatest young runner and disputed winner of the 6000-meter final over Ralph Hill, American boy, who came within three Inches of shutting out the Finns completely In the Olympic long distance "flat" races. The cause was Lehtlnen 's Interfer ence with Hill In an extrordlnary stretch duel, during which the Finn three times crossed his American rival In clear violation of rules as well as ethics In an International meet upholding the highest ideals of sportsmanship. Officially It will stand, with Leh tlnen getting the gold, medal and Hill sharing with him the new Olym pic record of 14:30, because the two were so close together that the watches at the finish showed no dif ference In time. But it will be a Jong time before the debate Is closed or Finland's escutcheon greeted with the more or less sympathetic reac tion to her previous setback here, the disbarment of Nurtnl on the eve of the games. Like the flashing beacon that It was on a stormy day. Bill Carr's crowning triumph In the 400 meters, giving the United States Its first sweep of the three Olymplo ' short distance races In 30 years, stamped the little thoroughbred from Arkan sas and Pennsylvania as the greatest quarter-mller of all time. Carr, with a typical rush down the home stretch with his smooth, almost effortless stride, beat East man by two yards In time that was considered next to Impossible, even on this lightning track. His mark of 40.9 wiped out everything In the books or on the cuff, includ ing the world mark of 47 seconds, held by Bud Spencer; the unofficial time of 40.0, credited to Carr him self In the final trials; the old Olym plo mark of 47.6, set by Eric Llddell In the 1024 final and Carr's own short-lived time of 47.3, made In theh seml-flnals yesterday.

IN RUN OUT' Action of Grants Pass late Satur day In cancelling their game here to day with the Medford Merchants baseball team caused indignation among local players and fans. Ac cording to a telephone conversation between Oeorge Young, manager of the Climate City team and Bud Con lln of the locals, the Grants Pass outrit will play Klamath Falls today Instead of going through with their scheduled sgreement to meet Med ford on the Fairground diamond here. Talent will play Chlloquln at the Talent park today and a hot con' test Is promised fans. According to Hoosler Hoffard. man ager of the Medford Merchants, the Grants Pass team has dodged a game with the locals on the letter's home grounds and the "run out" today Is described as due to the Cavemen's dislike to Invade this sector, esps daily since the Merchants have add ed several players by way of strength enlng their lineup. Hoffard stated his team would post a side bet of 1360 that they can take the Grants Passers Into camp and word to this effect has been sent to Grants Pass. Tueday afternoon at 5:30 o'clock the Merchants will cross bats with the colorful House of David aggrega. tlon on the letter's annual tour of the country. The churchmen play a nign class brand of bail and few clubs of the hinterland are able to wage victorious battle against them. However, Manager Hoffard promises that with his revamped llneuo the Israelites who 1 naddltlon to baseball go In for whisker raising, will find plenty of competition on their visit here. s E CHTCAflfY Auir fl Am Int.......

EIGHT TO FORTY PER CENT-LOSS SAY ESTIMATES (Oontlnueo ttuo rage one) nut tree was blown on the Frank Holdrldge home in the Talent dis trict,' and other minor damages wss reported. Trees In the residential districts of this city, were lashed, and leaves and twigs torn loose. Geneva street was deep with debris after the gale. .Teat Trees Damaged Arch Work of the Southern Ore gon Experimental orchard south of town, estimated last night, that the wind loss of the tract would be eight per cent, following a second survey and test. Just after the storm he estimated a 1 per cent lost. Work thought the eight per cent loss would hold good for the Kings highway dis trict. Frank (Pug) Isaacs, made a hurried Inspection of the oicharda In the Coker Butte district, and reported mat he estimated a 30 per cent or higher loss, but said that it was a very cursory examination, by auto light. Carl Y. Tengwald made a check of the Westerlund orchards In the Roxy Ann district, and renorted that the loss was "negligible, with a lot of small atuff blown off and mors good man narm done." He figured condi tions were about the same, or a llttlaJ worse on nearby orchards. Cornfields flattened In the Central Point district, It was reported that several "ornflelds were flattened. Orchards long Besr creek also suffered. The first report told of high losses. but these were lessened as the night wore on. The wind ended as suddenly as It came.
