Before making a quick dash for the loat train to Southampton, where they are boarding the aueen Mary, both Snyder and Owena Instated to day that they hed not made any decision regarding numerous offers Owens has received. The proposals by which, Jesse: can capitalise his fame aggregate well over 4100.000. but as Snyder expressed It, "we aren't count ing our financial ohlckens before they ere batched. ' In Dark On Olfere. ' . "We won't know what a lot of this m all about before we get back," the coach' added. "For all we know'some of the' folks anxious to sign Jesse up tor serious money may want htm to Jump through a lighted hoop or race JcanR&roos at county fairs. Whether or not Jesse baa run his last amateur race. Snyder still Is un convinced that suspension of Owens by tne A.

"Maybe I'm wrong." 8nyder said, but I feel euie that the circumstances,-, fully explained, would not keep Owens out of college competi tions regardless of how long the A. A. IT. ban lasts. That's strictly an academic point, however." Owens' suspension on top of other discordant Olympic notes, did not de velop much wsrmth of feeling be tween the A. A.

Mall Tribune Correspondent at Larft ' ' OLYMPIC STADIUM, Borlln, Aug. 7. -The sun Is thlnlng tt list, Stoeok hu Jiut heaved the Javelin tor another gold medal for Oermany, Hitler has taken his place In the tribune of honor, hta embroidered gold flag hat gone up. and the atadtum la it very happy place. . s This la the sixth dsy of the games, but the big bowl Is still packed and something like 100.000 people are on hand to extend their arms In the Nasi salute and sing tht German hymna aa another son of the Father land Is crowned with the Olympic laurel. The Eleventh Olympiad would be an emotional experience If nothing else, for the mob that storms the stadium each d&y Is not the ordinary sporting crowd one sees at home. Thme people take the performances of their athletes very seriously In deed, and a German who makes good on the track or field can be assured of material reward when the gamea are over. The police corporal Heln who mon the hammer-throw was promoted at once to lieutenant on the police force and placed In charge of athletics and physical education in hi district. The others are similarly rewarded, I understand, for everything In Ger many la under the direct control of the government and the government has made physical development one of ths major objectives of Ita program. It Is quite different at home, where man Is a hero for a day and a sucker as soon as the shouting and the tumult die. The weather hss been very bad during the first eevernl days, rain and wind making the stadium very uncomfortable, but today's weather Is making up for It. The sky has cleared and the flags of all nations circling the stadium sre drooping on their starra vvpi yesterday they were whipped V a twndy wind. Today's 1600 meter race waa per haps the moat remarkable single event of the games. The first two men broke the world's record and the next three were ahead of the Olympic record. Poor Glenn Cunningham, making his big try for the United States, broke the world's record by a good margin but lost to Lovelock of New Zealand, who broke It by a j wider margin and finished ahead of i CuuntntThAm by eevrrsl fet.

The fact that the game started at 0 o'clock, was: held cm week nlght durtng the peak of the fruit season, and conflicted with the Bharkey-Louls fight Is be lieved to have had much to do with the sllmness of the gate. The local club had no choice' in dates, however. Mlljus started the game for his' team, and worked the rubber for three Innings. He haa not chucked a ball In over 10 days, and while his. offertnga lacked the whipping sting that made him one of the outstand ing hurl era In; the big time, he did well, allowing only one hit In Jhe three Innings, apd no runs. 1 Erlckson followed the old master to the mound, retired the side 1-2-3 In the Jourtb,.and was touched for three' hlta and three runs tn the flfthTun gate ,took over In the sixth, mowed down the next three batters, but was. touched for a home run by the first man up In the seventh. He let the next three men down. Russell, a new hurler, took over In the eighth and allowed three hlta and two runs. Crowthers, 20-year-old right hander, worked the entire game for the Convicts and allowed only six hits. He exhibited almost perfect con trol, nicking the edge of the platter like a sniper. The thrill of the game came tn the sixth whn a hot grounder was pounded out by Shearer, Con out fielder. Richard,- on third, had to make a dead run in an effort to atop the ball and he snagged It with a crosa-handed catch that drew a cheer from what crowd there was. He threw the runner out at first for the third out of the Inning. Summary: Convicts. R.

"Probably somebody fished and fished all over the lake with no luck at all until he hit that spot. Maybe he got several good strikes about there. Must have calculated in his mind just where the spot was and, next time he came out, brought those poles with hhn and drove them down, so he'd have something to tie his boat to." Advertisements mean to an experienced shopper exactly what those two poles mean to an experienced fisherman "good fishing." Advertisements are mark ers of the best buys they save "fishing all over the lake." 1
