r Slates as the dominating world
power in the 1956 Olympic track
t and field games. ,
' The scene is Neufeld Stadium
site of the five-day European
Athletic Championships, to wru
MS track and field st3rs from 28
countries have been drawn.
The Soviet Union will field
; ftam ot 74 men and women. The
r men appear almost certain of
, three championship?. The women
actually may run off with every
title and should place one, two,
', three in many.
But the greatest Interest of
Western onlookers centers not so
much on .well-known . . individual
Soviet stars as on the Russian
depth in every event.
A country may enter only two in
each event and Russia looks .pow
erful enough to place high in every
, one of the 24 contests, which in
clude two walks and two relays.
To Russians, athletics have a
political tinge and "outstripping
the capitalist world has its place
on the cinder track as well as in
the tractor factory." .
These European championships
could turn into an Iron Curtain
triumph in sports.
Czechoslovakia is bringing a
squad headed by the great Emil
Zatopek, world record holder in
the 5,000 and 10.000 meters as well
as a host of other distances. His
compatriot Jiri Skoblif is a strong
favorite to win the shot put.
The Hungarians stand an excel
lent chance of winning the ham
mer with Olympic champion Jo
seph Csermark, the discus with
Ferenc Klic and the broad Jump
with Odan Foldessy. Their 1.500
nian Sandor Rharos could upset
Britain's four-minute miler Roger
Bannister.
Poland's Janusz Sitlo Is the
choice in the javelin. The Rus
sian trio of Leonid Shcheroakov in
the hop, step and jump, Yurll
Litucv in the 400 meters and Vasi
li Kuznetsov In the decathlon are
almost sure favorites. Other Rus
sian victories are possible in the
100 and 200-meter dashes, 400-meter
run, 110-meter hurdles, pole
vault and 3, 000-metcr steeple
chase. PICKLED MINNIE Minnie

Ezzard Charles Ho!ds
When Questioned By
By GAVLE TALBOT
NEW YORK (PI Ezzard
Charles never has been a man who
felt at ease n the company of
boxing writers. While trying to In
terview the big Negro fighter
one always has had the feeling
that he was holding himself tightly
in check, saying as little as he
could without actually offending
those who were probing his
thoughts.
This has been understandable to
some extent, for Ezzard has been
given some rough goings-over on
the sports pages from time to
time for his failure to fight up to
expectations. These have hurl
him, for he is a more intelligent
and sensitive fighter than some,
and his reaction has been to clam
up except in the presence of cer
tain intimates.
It is from one of. these that we
Lave received a report on what
the challenger is thinking . as he
trains for his . second shot at
Rocky Marciano Sept. 15 in Yan
kee Stadium. This is what Ez said
to his friend:
"I feel great, better than the last
lime. You've either got it or you
haven't. I had it the last time but
I didn't use enough of it. I oidn't
take advantage of the breaks. When
I hurt him I iet him get away. It
will be different this time.
"I've made up my mind it won't
go 15 rounds. I've never made pre
dictions or boasted about what I
could do in the ring, as you know.
I was confident I could beat him
the last time, and now I'm more
confident I can knock him out. .
"Always before there was loo
much time. Time heals, but it can
kill too. When Joe Walcott took my
title away in Pittsburgh in 1951 I
wanted to get right back at him.
but Joe Wide me wait almost a
year. - Have you ever waited for
something, not knowing wnether
li s ever coming oil? wnn joe,
there was no telling. Anyway. I
waited and worried too much, and
bv the time I fought him again I
v:as like an amateur. I had no
zing, no pep. . . .
"Finally I got my fight with
Marciano. It was one of my best,
and even if they gave him the de

B.V THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Damp weather cooled off the red
hot pennant race in the Western
International League Tuesday
night. Games between front-running
Lewlston and Yakima, and
Vancouver and Edmonton were
postponed because of rain.
Salem, however, got in another
lick and' nudged closer to the
league lead by topping Tri-Clty,
9-4 in 11 innings at Kennewick.
The uin moved the Senators with
in four percentage points of Lew
lston. With less than two weeks to go
in the pennant chase Yakima and
Salem trail the Broncs by only
one game each, Vancouver is two
games off the pace' and Edmon
ton 4 "4.
Salem scored five runs In the
yth inning Tuesday night to beat
Tri-Clty after throwing the game
into overtime with a freak triple
play in (he ninth.
The triple killing came with the
Braves Vic Buccola on second and
Len Tran on first.
Artie Wilson hit a lowliner fly
caught bi Don Kellogg at third.
Both runners thought the ball was
trapped, however, and were off
and running. Kellogg pegged to
second but the throw was wide
and went into right field. Right
fielder Mel Krause, who also
thought the ball was trapped, peg
ged home trying to get Buccola.
Second baseman Olenn Tuckett
called for the ball, touched sec
end and Buccola was called out,
then Tuckett threw to first where
Tran was thumbed out.
Tri-Clty had men in scoring posi
tions in the ' eighth, ninth, tenth
and eleventh innings but couldn't
get them across.
Wednesday's schedule calls for
Edmonton at Vancouver, Salem at
Trl-City and Yakima at Lewlston.
