Banks Stays
In Lineup
Chicago -flirt)- The Chicago
Cubs will have Ernie Banks
back In the lineup today for
his 580th consecutive game at
shortstop.
Banks was carried off the
field on a stretcher In the
second inning of Monday's
game with the Cincinnati
Reds after Don Ncwcombe hit
him in the left knee with a
fast ball.
The slender shortstop, who
has captured the National
league's Most Valuable Player
award for the past two sea
sons, spent two hours at a
hospltnl undergoing X-rays
ice-pack treatment.
Doctors said the ball hit him
on the side of the leg, just
missing the kneecap and there
was no evidence of a fracture.

fith of New York, bubbling
with title ambitions because
of his second straight victory
over Argentine Jorge Fer
nundoz, announced today he
was ready to fight any 147
poundcr in the world who
stood between him and the
championship.
Griffith, 22, won a unani
mous decision over slugger
Fernandez, 24, Monday night
at Madison Square Garden in
their non-television return 10
roundcr after taking the
aourin rouna on a ioui.
Emile weighted 150 pounds;
Fernandez, M8',i. Betting was
at "even money."
On June 3, speedy Griffith
received a split verdict over
the stocky black-haired South
American at St. Nicholas
Arena; but the decision was
so unpopular it caused a near
riot In which chairs and refuse
were hurled into the ring.
Monday night at the Garden
the 3,500 spectators caused
no disturbance when the deci
sion was announced.

'Glamor Race1 Hopes
By HOWARD APPLEGATE
Unitad Praia International
Eugene, Ore. - IUPD - When
It comes to the toy "glamor
race" of the Olympic games,
the 1,500 meter run, the
United States has been a com
plete Clop for 52 years.
Not since "peerless" Mel
Shcppard captured the so
called metric mile in 1908
has an American finished first
in this most coveted of -II
races, even though the United
States has dominated almost
every other event In Olympic
track and field.
Glenn Cunningham was
figured as a probable victor
for the United States when
the 1036 Olympics was held
under Adolf Hitler's scowling
gaze in Berlin, but Cunning
ham - holder of the world
mile record - was whipped by
Jack Lovelock of New Zea
land. Unheralded Bob McMillln
came close at Helsinki in
1952, but lost by an eyelash
to Josy Barthel of Luxem
burg. Delaney Was Irish
American fans got some
thing of a thrill In 1058 when
Ron Delany, a student at
Philadelphia's Villanova uni
versity, won the glamor gal
lop at Melbourne, but Delany
was running for his homeland
- Ireland.
And so, 52 years after Shcp
pard and 24 years after Cun
ningham, the United States
comes to another Olympic
games and puts its hopes for
an Olympic 1,500 meter tri
umph on a 20-year-old boy.
Thin, quiet Dyrol Burleson,
who will be a junior at the
University of Oregon when
he returns from the games in
Rome this fall, qualifies for
all the hope being placed in
him because he is the only
American who has broken
four minutes for the mile
twice.
Also on the U.S. team for
this evening is Jim Grelle,
Burleson's brilliant teammate
at Oreiton, and Marine Lieut.
Pete Close from St. John's,
N.Y.
But track experts are agreed
that any hopes the United
States may have of upsetting
defending champion Delany,
world mile record holder
Herb Elliott of Australia, and
a number of European stars
must rest on the shoulders of
Burleso. .
Can Burley do it?
Will Grow Stronger
He's not a bragger, but he
thinks he can. So does his
coach, Bill Bowerman of Ore
gon, although actually both
think he still may be a year
away from an all-out assault
on Elliott's 3:54,5 world rec
ord for the mile.
"I'll be a year older next
year, and should be a lot
stronger," Burleson points
out.
But Burleson also indicates
in his quiet way that he Is
sure he can do better than he
already has done. When he
broke the American record
for the mile with a 3:58.6
clocking, 1 c commented, "I
can run faster."
When little Jim Beatty of
the Santa Clara Youth Village
who will run in the 5,000
meters in the Olympics beat
him and ran 3:58.0 to break
Burleson's record, Burley said
dryly, "I made some mis
takes." Burleson was timed in
3:59.2 in that race.
For all the talk about El
liott and all the respect that
Burleson has for the Aussie
star, Burleson figures that
Delany will be the man to
beat in Rome, simply because
the Irish bog-Jumper Is the
defending champion and a
U.S. Davis Cup
Team Selected
San Francisco CtTPD T h e
U.S. Davis Cup Selection com
mittee has picked Barry Mac-
Kay, Bernard Barizen, Earl
Bucholz Jr. and Charles Mo
Kinley for a match with
Mexico Aug. 6-8.
Chairman James B. Moffett
said Monday that the Mexican
match, which will be played
at an altitude of almost 8,000
feet, is one of the toughest as
signments in tennis.
This is especially true, he
said, because the current
Mexican team is the strongest
ever to represent that coun
try. The U.S. team left Sun
day so it will have 11 days to
get acclimated.
Rest With

man agree that the Oregon
star can win at Rome, experts
