ORECON ImURSDAY, JULY 14, 14 Tight Races Predicted In Major Wheels McCarthy Bubbles With Optimism; Boudreau Mum By the Associated Preaa The major leaaue pennant rsoes are goini to wind up In two triple tie for lint plare. At least that's the conclusion one draws alter comment from Casey Stengel. Burt Shotton, Joe Mc Carthy, Connie Mack and other op timistic pilots. The latest and most surprising skipper to look into the future through rase colored glasses Is Joe McCarthy, the usually reucient leader of the Boston Red Sox. Although weighted down in fourth place, eight and a halt games off the pace at the half-way mark. McCarthy Insisted that his club 'from here in is the team to beat" in the American league rare. "Well be there or thereabouts at the finish," he said. "Everything hii been breaking Just right for the Yankees." The Red Box really are moving now. They've won seven in a row and are only a game and a half behind the third place Philadelphia Athletics. Casey Stengel, who hes done such an amazing Job with the front running New York Yankees, does not share McCarthy's opinion. "I hare been inclined to think that the Red Sox would provide us with the- toughest competition." Stengel said. "I felt that way even when they languished in the sec ond division. But when we knocked them off five times in a row re cently, that finished them. I dont think they can recover." ATHLETICS 8LVMP A week ago Stengel picked the Athletics as the only team that could atop his Yankees, who cur rently hold a five and a half game bulge over the second place Cleve- j land Indians. At the time, the A's were in second place, only four and half behind. "If we can beat the A's more times than they beat us. were In." Stengel said. "If not. It probably will be the As." Whereupon the Yankees knocked off the Mackmen In a solo contest, and started them on their way to a five-game losing streak. Connie Mack. Philadelphia's 16-year-old manager, is not discour aged, however. -Our boys, although In third place today, feel they still can win and L as their manager, have to go along with them, naturally." he said. "Dont count us out. We sun have good chance." Cleveland's Lou Boudreau didnt talk much but grinned knowingly when asked whether he thought he would repeat "We're still the champions." he aid. "It's up to the others to beat us. And It's not going to be easy. I promise you that." Burt Shotton. grizzled Brooklyn manager, still Insists, as he has all season lone, that his Dodgers are going to win the National league flag. In this he has the backing of his boss. Branch Rickev. Currentlv. the Dodgers hold a half-game edge on the St. Louis Cardinals, who have won Si of their last SO games. CARDS IMPROVED Redbirds leader Eddie Dyer thinks hia team Is at least IS per cent improved with the addition of Pitchers Max Lanier and Pred Mar tin and Infielder Lop Klein. Dyer and Billy Southworth. man ager of the third place Boston Braves, envisioned a stretch drive that would not produce a win er until the final day. f - - - It r y 4 .

When television station WDTV Interrupted Its grunt and groan show to switch to the capltol for Truman's economic talk Its tele phone switchboard lit up like a Christmas tree. Irale wrestling fans demanded the station return to the usual Wednesday night fare.

I L NEW YORK (NEA Dean B. Cromwell answers thai old one re garding the 4-mtnule mile. Track and field shall have It, aays the Olympic coach, and also a 8 second 100, a ID-loot brnad Jump, 16-foot pole vault. 7-toot high Jump, ' 60-foot shot put and 300-foot discus ; throw. 'Where are the world records of 30 years ago?" asks Dean Crom well, in the preface of his new book. "Championship Technique In Track ,and Field" (Whittlesey House, 4. "Devastated so completely that high school boys now frequently turn In far better performances than the old standards. "Except for the mark in the ham mer throw, broken unolfk-ully on , at least five occasions in 1WJII, aud the times in a tew races al odd distances, where there la now Utile or no competition, there is not an official world record in the books that goes back beyond IB JO. "With improved techmouea and I advanced training methods, the re cords will continue to lake a beat ing." Paul Pilgrim differs with Crom well on three counts. Pilgrim, New York athletic club athletic direc tor who has kept close tab since winning the 400 and 600 meters al the 1D06 Olympic Oamea In Athens, doubts that the 4-minute mile, Ihe -second HO and Ihe 26-foot broad Jump ever will be attained. Dan Ferris dlsagreea lour ways, but considers the 4-minute mile vul nerable. What the secretary-treasurer of the Amateur Athletic union and keeper of the records can t see is anyone doing the century in t flat, a 38-Ioot broad Jump, 16-fool pule vault, or throwing the discus 200 feet. "Had Ounder Haag. Amle An derson and that bunch not been ruled ineligible the Swedes mm hi I have had the competition to whit tle the mile down lo 4 minutes flat," says Ferns. "Thre Is not too much differ ence. They have It down to 4-01.4." Southern California s Mel Patlon cut the 100 to 9 3. but many re markable jprlntera failed to come that close, though pressed to the exploding point. Inasmuch as such a superlative combine sufficient broad Jumping with It to do more than the present record of 26 feet '. a 36-footer would make the eyes of Pilgrim and Ferris pop from their heads. Pilgrim has an Idea that some young man will duplicate Corne lius Warmerdam's lengthened run way, speed and momentum for a 16-foot pole vault. Ferris says Warmerdam, the on ly man ever to vault 15 feet and who holds the record at 15 feet 1 Inches, might hsve done 16, but points out that no one else has even approached 15. With the current mark 161 feet 6S Inches, Ferris stresses the fart that the boys are a long way from a 200-foot discus throw. But time marches on and dis tance fades. Oo ahead and argue.
