O’Brien Appears Best In
400-Meters Race For U.S.
Ben Eastman May Make
Comeback for Olympics
This Year, However
(NOTE~This is the second
of a series on America’'s out
stunding Olympic track and
field prospects, written by The
Associated Press sports edi
tor in collaboration with the
country's foremost coaches.)
NEW YORK —{(AP) — With one
exeeption, America’s leading track
coaches name Black-Haired, Long-
Striding Eddie O'Brien of Atlan
tie City and Syracuse University
as our “one best bet” to retain
400-meter foot-racing honors in
the fortheoming Olympic games
at Berlin.
The disgenter is Robert (Dink)
Templeton, of Stanford, not be
cause of any skepticism of the
Syracuse star’s ability but because
he believes his ex-pupil, blazin’
Ben Eastman will come racing
down the stretch this summer a
winner in both the 400 and 800
meter Olympic, championships.
Up to now it had been assumed
Bastman's comeback, after a year's'
absence from competition, would
be aimed only at the 800 meters,
an event this country has not won
gince Ted Meredith raced to vie- |
(tory at Stockholm in 1912, and a
distance for which blazin’ Ben
shares the world record with
Britain’'s 19882 Olympic ~ winner,
Tom Hampson.
Only once in Olympic history
has a ‘“‘double” been scored in the
400 and 800, Paul Pilgrim, now an
officer of the New York Athletic
club, pulled the trick in the 1906
games at Athens.
“Bastman will be Dbetter than
over,” says Templeton. “He will
qualify for both events without
difficulty and run off with the
Olympie championship Competi
tition in them is so spaced that he
will have Menty of strength for the
double.” ’
The prospect may be imriguingi
but other coaches think Eastman’s
best course is to concentrate on
the 800, particularly as America
already is so well fortified for the
shorter distance .
O'Brien, in the view of such
college mentors as Billy Hayes of
Indiana. Bernie Moore of Louisia
na State, Larry Snyder of Ohis
State, Brutus Hamilton of Cali
formia and '©ean Cromwell of
Southern California, looks to be
the” class of the 400 meters dis
tinetion of turning out an Qlym
pic champion at eight-year inter
vals.
Jimmy Luvalle of U. C. Li. A.,
twice winner of the I. C. 4-A 400
meters title and John McCarthy,
likeliest of a crack brand of quar
ter-milers under Crowley's wing
at Southern California, are |
rated O'Brien's leading rivals on|
the west coast. Ray Ellinwood of
the University of Chicago has de-l
veloped sensationally indoors. |
Glenn Harden, Louisiana State
star and former national champ
ion, will confine his efforts to the
400 meters hurdles this year, '
Elroy Robingon of the San
Francisco Olympic club, national
half~-mile champion should ecapt
ure: the third Olympic berth for
the 800, if he recovers his 1935 |
form. Other contenders pruhabl‘v:
will include Charley Beethan of
Ohio State, Ross Bush of Southern
California and Ken Black of Maine.

Pacific Coast Negro Up
sets Primo in One of Big
gest Surprises of Year
4 By SID FEDER
Associated Press Staff Writer.
PHILADELPHIA .~ (#) — The
tomeback bubble that Primo Car
nera was inflating toward title
challenging size is shattered.
Larruping Leroy Haynes, a
brawney battler from the Pacific
Coast, with explosives .in either |
hand—and particularly the z-lght—l
blocked the former heavyweight
champion’s return effort in three
bhattering rounds before 10,000
fans, '
He jolted Primo with two
crashing right hooks in the first
frame, tumbled him to the canvas
twice in the sgecond, and then fin
ished him in the third when thel
ponderous one, unable to take
any more of the beating he was
getting, turned his back and quit
in his own corner.
Referee Matt Adgie raised the
Los Angeles Negro's hand in to
ken of one of the year's surpris
ing victories at 53 seconds of the
third.
Haynes' triumph was more con
vineing in that although he
weighed only 197 1-2 to Carnera’s
265, he stopped the Italian in half
the number of rounds it took Joe
Louis, and in slightly more than
a quarter of the time it took Max
Baer.
His top-heavy victory started
talk that Madison Square Garden
may boom him in the spot for
which it was building Carnera.
The word in fight circles was that
the defeat meant the end of bring
ing Carnera back to the status of
a challenger for Champion Jimmy
Braddoeck, and that Haynes might
do in his place.
At any rate, Haynes and his
manager, Pete Moran, had eyes
on big game today. They were
gunning for Joe Louis although
they have made offers to the
Brown Bomber from Detroit in
the past, they did not have the
foundation that the Vvictory over
Primo gives them.
SPORTS ROUND-UP
R T SRS TR
. By EDDIE BRIETZ
Associated Press Sports Writer
LONGWOOD, Fla.— (#) —Way
down here in America’s winter
trotting horse capital, the blue
bloods of the harnesg racing world
are readying up for thig season’s
campaign on the grand cireuit . . .
More than 100 thoroughbred trot
ters and pacers are in camp . . .
1t would take more than $1,000,000
to buy the lot at wholesale . . .
Among them is Rosalind, red hot
favorite to win the Hambletonian
Stakes, the Kentucky Derby of
trotting racing.
Rosalind is owned by Gibson
‘White, 20-year-old son of Ben
White, famous Lexington, Ky.,
trainer. The White stable of 42
horses is the largest here . . . It
includes the strings of W. N.
Reynolds, Winston-Salem, N. C.,
tobacco millionaire, and his ne
phtw, ‘B." J. Reynolds,” jr. ', ', .
Between them they own 30 of
White’'s chargers . ~ ', All the
Revnolds horses wear blankets
advertising the fact that they'd
walk a mile for that cigarette . . .
On occasions, Mr. White, can’'t
help but wish some of them would
try runnnig for a chaage.
Seth Palin, who drove Grey
hound to vietory in the Hamble
tonian last year, is here with a
string of 28 . . . His horses ©c
cupy one entire barn, with Grey
hound "in the No. 1 stall . ." .
This year Palin, one of the best
in the business, will try to cop
the Hambletonian with either The
Master or Volyra . . . Palin is
among the trainers who think
Rosalind has the best chance.
Odds and Ends: Mrs. James
Mulvey, who some day will own
the Brooklyn Dodgers, is a trotting

St. Louis Cardinals Team
~ To Beat In National Race
I If Deans Don’t Sign, Cards!
Can Be Counted Out
E; Right Now, However
BY PAUL MICKELSON
(Associated Press Sports Writer)
BRADENTON, Fla.— (#) —That
“Gas House Gang” from St Luuis.l
strengthened by a ‘tough guy"]
from Coogan’s Bluff, will be the]
team they all will have to beat out]
for that National league pwnnant!
in 1936. ‘
The “tough guy,” Leroy I’ul'mc-!
lee, has made such an impression |
in the Cardinal camp that—t—l”n—e-Eang!
can’'t see how it can be stopped in
the pennant drive. In him they
see the one important pitching cog
that was missing last year when
|the 21-in-a-row Chicago Cubs beat‘
lthem out in the final series of the,
campaign.
Coupled with the two Deans, who
are certain to come to terms before
the gang starts on its norihward
journey, Parmelee, obtained from‘
the New York Giants in the deal
for Second Baseman Burgess W’Mte-‘
head, is expected to give St. Louis
jall the pitching strength it needs.‘
Even such a hardened campaigner
as Manager Frankie Frisch is ex-‘
cited about Parmelee, whom he
calls the answer to a manager's
prayer, l
“Parmelee appears to have Just‘
iwhat we want,” says Frisch “and
that’'s evérything, With the two!
Deans, Parmelee and BEill Halla-|
han, who looks better than he has,
in several seasons, we should have
14 pitching staff second to none in
the league.” .
No where in this correspond
ent's travels this spring hag he
seen any team with more drive and
eagerness than that of the Cardi
nalg,
Frisch, who doesn’'t like to work
the Dean brothers any more than
necessary, expects to carry 10
pitchers this vear until he can
round out a winning staff. In ad
ldition to his probable “big four’—
'the Deans, Parmelee and Hallahan
—he is counting on Bill Walker,
Jeas Haines, Bill McGee, Ed Heus
ser, Dominic Ryba and Nelson Pot
ter, a very promising right hander
obtained from the big Card farm
at Houston. :
Frisch's biggest worry, however,
is Mr. Frisch. It's almost a cinch
Frankie can't go through at top|
speed for an entire geason at sec- ||
ond although he claims he’s in ex- |
tra good shape.
For years, he has heen the key
man of the Cardinals on defense,
and so far no one has been dis
covered who can replace him. Pat
Ankenman, 1383 pound fielding wiz
ard from Columbus, may do it but
it is doubtful if he can fill Frisch’s
10-acre shoes, Third base is the
other big problem. Right now,
Charlie Gelbert looks like his old
aelf on that hot spot but he, him
gelf, doesn't think he can play more
than 130 games, Ripper Collins and
100 Durocher fill the bill nicely
enough at first and shortstop, res
pectively.
Loss of Bill Delancy weakened
the catching staff, but Frisch isn’t
fretting about that department
with Virgil Davis and Brusie Ogro
dowski, another Columbus farm
hand, at the post. The same is true
of the outfield, considing of Terry
Moore, Ducky Medwick and Pepper
Martin, who lis back where he
figures he should be.
“There isn't another outfield like
[that in baseball,” commented
’Frlsch.
There should be plenty of utility
3str9(§th, notably with Johnny Mize
in ‘the role as chief pinch hitter,
The Cards didn’t have a good pinch
hitter last year and missed him
badly. Mize, not exactly a genius
on defense, can really slug that
baseball.
But if the Deang don’t sign, you
can forget about the “Gas House
Gang” for 1986 and 1937. They've
got to have them in there.
