Lash Shatters
U. S. Mark For
10,000_Meters
U. Of Indiana Track Star
Clinches Berth On 1936
Olympic Team
PRINCETON, N. J., July 3. - P) -
Running the fastest 10,000 meters
ever achieved by an American, Donald
Ray Lash of Indiana proved himself
this country's premier distance racer
this evening by running away with
the combined A.A.U. national cham-
pionship and Olympic final tryout.
Lash spread-eagled his field and ne-
gotiated the distance, approximately
six and one-quarter miles, in 31 min-
utes, 6-9 seconds.
Competing on the famous Palmer
Stadium track, where he broke Paavo
Nurmi's world two-mile record three
weeks ago, the 22-year-old Indiana
collegian clinched his place in the
1936 American Olympic team with a
superb performance but he wasn't
quite equal to the task of dislodging
another of the flying Finn's cherished
foot-racing standards.
Finishes Like Sprinter
Lash finished like a sprinter while
a small crowd cheered and the flash-
lights popped but his time was slightly
more than a full minute behind the
world record of 30:06.2 set by the
great Nurmi in 1924, at the height of
his caeer.
The long-legged Hoosier neverthe-
less wiped out the mark of 31:24, set
by Tom McConouch of the Boston
A.A. at Cambridge, Mass., in 1932, and
the best previous performance ever
registered by an American citizen.
The listed national record of 30:11.4
was made by Jan Kusocinski, Polish
star, in winning the last Olympic 10,-
000-meter race, at Los Angeles.
In 9.6 Seconds
On his.way to triumph Lash passed
the six-mile mark in 30 minutes, 9.6
seconds, thereby hanging up a new
American record for the distance. It
displaced the 23-year-old national
standard set by the first of Finland's
great Olyipic champions, Hannes
Kolesmainen, who was clocked in
30:20.4 in 1913 at New York. The
best previous mark by an American
citizen for six miles was 0:43.4, set
by W. J. Kramer at Cambridge,
Mass., in 1912.
COMEBACK?
DALLAS, Texas, July 3. - (,P) -.
Maxie Baer's "comeback campaign"
tonight met boos of 6,000 fans as he
pecked out a three round knockout
over fat-waisted Buck Rogers, 217-
pounder of Philadelphia. A light
right ended the incident.

Expect 450 To Die
Today Celebrating
Independence Day
(By the Associated Press)
In every town and county of their
vast country, Americans went forth
oday to commemorate the 160th an-
-iversary of the declaration of inde-
pendence.
They will celebrate in a hundred
different ways, handed down in old
Lra ditions which find firecrackers
popping in a long crescendo in the
north, while fried chicken is spread
in the shady places of the rural south.;
With it all, some 450 will die ac-
identally-if careful life insurance
actuarial estimates of yesterday (by
Pravelers Insurance Co.) are borne
.)ut with such grim preciseness as in
the past.
The nation's two presidential can-
lidates will be in tar different parts
of the country as the familiar simple
words of the Declaration of Inde-
oendence are read by many an ora-
tor.
President Roosevelt plans an Inde-
pendence Day address at Monticello,
Va., in Thomas Jefferson's old col-
onial home. Governor Alf M. ,Lan-
don, the Republican candidate, ar-
ranged to visit friends, in an undesig-
nated town near Kansas City.
In New York, the 48-gun salute to
the states to be fired beginning at
11 a.m. (E.S.T.) will be "piped" by
radio (NBC) to every home which
wants to hear it-a shot to be heard
around the country, if not 'round the
world.
How many millions of people will
go traveling about the country was
beyond estimate; it was thought 1,-
500,0000 would leave New York City
alone.
