It was the fourth straight tri. umph in the varsity three miler for Coach Stork Sanford's eight and the second time Cornell had swept all three events In rowing's niue ribbon classic. The men from Cayuga did it for the first time in 11155. In winning the varsity prize for tne lounn straight time, the Cor nellians tied the record set by Cornell from 1909 to 1912. No other school can claim that honor. Washington still holds the record f four sweeps in the IRA. Cornell, stroked by Johnny Meakem, a 21-year-old senior from Bloomfield, N. J., took the lead from fast-starting Massachu setts Tech at the mile and a quar ter mark. Moving smoothly and with ter rific power, the Big Red drew away from the others with every stroke. By the end of two miles it was just a question of who was going to finish second. Navy's mixture of sophs and juniors came up in the last half mile to take second by a half length over Syracuse. California's sophomore-dominated crew was fourth followed by Princeton Pennsylvania, Dartmouth. Wiscon sin, MIT, and Columbia in the 10 crew field. Cornell was timed in 17:12.1. slowest varsity time since the re gatta was shifted to Onondaga in vm. ine limes lor the Cornell frosh and junior varsity also were the slowest at Onondaga. A head wind of from six to eight miles an hour slowed up the crews. The frosh won their two-mile race In 11:23 and the Jayvees the three- mile In 17:3.5. With their three victories Satur- day Cornell won the Jim Ten Eyck Memorial Trophy for team honors for the fifth consecutive year.

But into the morning hours, the Fer rari, driven by Phil Hill of Los Angeles and Olivier Gendcbien of Belgium held a slight lead. The race ends at 9 a. m. EST Sunday.

It's for sure Belko is feeling the pain right along with Kimpton. When the Los Angeles Rams traded olf former University of Oregon quarterback Worm Van irocklin to the Philadelphia Eagles. ..-oacn ora uiuman wane certain that his Rams wouldn't be look ing at the Dutchman's throwing arm in National Football League competition. Philadelphia and Los Angeles are in different divisions of the NFL and the only time the Rams and Eagles meet will be on a kings-x basis. VanRrocklin. like so many other castoffs, could come back (o haunt his ex-boss, for which he has very little love. The Dutchman should give the defensively-strong Eagles a good offense. He may not be the same Van Brocklin of a few years ago, but he's still able to show the youngsters how to throw the foot ball. If you don't think so ask Johnny Unitis of Baltimore who was eating up the NFL's passing statistics until he ran head-on into Van and the Rams at the tail end of last year's season. With the Rams shy their No. 1 signal caller, we wouldn't be sur prised if they try and dicker with the Baltimore Colts for the serv ices of George Shaw, the ex-Grant High of Portland and University of Oregon quarterback. Shaw was the Colt's fair-haired boy until he went into the service and Umlis got a toe-hold on the quarterback- ing slot.

Middleroff was charged wilh holding up play. world's shot put record for women in the Oregon AAU meet, Sharon, who pilched for the colorful Oakridgc-Westlir Logger ctles the two years they were run- nerups to Lake Oswego, tossed the eight-pound shot 44-fcet, 10 Inches This bettered the previous world record of 42-10'j. The former Oakridce Softball all-stater just missed winning a spot on the U.S. Olympic track and field team in the last trials held in the east two years ago She is among those favored to win a berth next time around though. Wednesday evening at Wright Field, fans who turned out to watch the evening's Little League action saw a prime example of what the program is trying to promote with the young 10, rl and 12-year-olds of the Basin sportsmanship and fair play. In the Hal s-Bob s Union game on Held one. two Hal s out held era, George Spracue Jr., and Wil fred Brazil collided while chasing a fly ball. Roth youths fell to the ground, but Brazil regained his leet and started after the ball. But when he saw Sprague didn't recover as well, he left the ball and went to Ihe side of his team mate to see what was the matter. It later was found that young George had suffered a broken arm in the collision. Brazil's action is even more complimentary since his team was leading by one run. Bob's Union had the bases loaded, it was the last inning and by letting the ball go his team lost the game. For those of you who haven l laken the time to watch the Little Leaguers or the Pccwccs, Ban lams or Babe Ruthers for that matter you are missing some line entertainment. As we've said in the past, te local summer rec reation program. Softball and base- hall, is the best to be found. wood invitational: Bill O'Brien, Seattle's golfing policeman; and Dr Herman Dahl, just arrived home from the National Open, for which he was the first Tacoma am ateur ever to qualify.
