S. mile record, made a brief stop at London Airport yesterday on his wayto a track meet in Helsinki, but- paused long enough to give a few=--tips on how to run a four- minute mile. Santee, who this month did the mile in 4.02:4, said "there must be the desire to win--and with that must follow the de- sire for a lot of hard work." Santee is a member of an eight- man U. S. track team touring Europe this summer. LONDON - Champion jockey Gordon Richards, knighted by Queen Elizabeth II at Buckingham Palace investiture early yesterday, Ladies & Children HAIRSTYLING A Specialty WELCOME TO OUR SHOP 0 8 STYLISTS 9 NO WAITING The Dascola Barbers Near Michigan Theatre READ AND USE DAILY CLASSIFIEDS thinks the handle "sir" to his name is too-much to carry around the racetracks. Soon after leaving Buckingham Palace, Richards announced that with the permission of the Jockey Club stewards he wanted to be referred to as "G. Richards" over track loudspeakers and on num- ber boards. * * * WISCONSIN DELLS, Wis.-The National Federation of High School Athletic Associations, in 34th annual convention here, rec- ommended yesterday expansion of the basketball rule eliminating call for minor fouls committed in the backcourt. By 4 a voice vote delegates ap- proved a resolution asking the rule De applied to minor fouls, not con- nected with the play, no matter where they occur. Delegates heard a report on the 1-and-1 rule which said the 1-year-old change reduced fouls last season by 16 per cent from a 10-year average. The 1-and-1 rule specifies that when a player shooting a one shot penalty misses his first try he is entitled to another chance. The report said the rule increased game times only an average of two minutes. - * * * CLEVELAND -- Mac Speedie, the National League's leading pass- catcher, turned down a Cleveland Browns contract and signed with Regina in the Canadian League. Coach Paul Brown said the Cleveland team had offered the 33-year-old end a boost in pay for the coming year but that Speedie had. turned it down. Brown said there was "no doubt" the Cleveland team had a legal contract to Speedie's services. "The question now is," Brown continued, "whether we will take legal action." * * * LAUREL, Md.-Driver Jimmy Arthur left Laurel Raceway hur- riedly over the week end for Roose- velt Raceway at Westbury,, L. I., and track officials connected his departure to a series of threaten- ing letters. Race Secretary Preston Jeun- ine, said that Arthur had been receiving the letters for several days, and . that the FBI, state police and Pinkerton detectives were working on the case. Details of the letters were not disclosed, but it was understood that they threatened harm to Ar- thur's wife and two children. The family lived in a trailer camp near the raceway, where police found it impossible to maintain a 24- hour vigil. By DICK LEWIS Daily Sports Editor Michigan track coach Don Can- ham has been selected by the ex- ecutive board of the National Am- ateur Athletic Union to lead a band of ten classy American track- men through the wilds of Scanda- navia early next month. Big stops scheduled on the three-week tour of track-crazy Norway and Sweden are at Oslo on August 5-6 and Stockholm on August 16. On those dates Can- ham's troupe will compete against the national champions of Swe- den and Norway before crowds ex- pected to top the 70,000 mark. THREE OLYMPIC standouts and seven other well-knoyn com- petitors make up the unit headed by Canham, one of four groups touring the European continent this summer under arrangements made by the AAU. Leading this aggregation is beefy Sim Iness, the Southern Cal discus sensatio nwho recent- ly established the world mark at better than 190 feet. Ann Arbor track fansihad a chance to see him in action last week at the Pacific Coast-Big Ten meet. Cy Young, Olympic javelin champion attached to the Los An- geles Athletic Club and NCAA sprint titlist Thane Baker of Kan- sas State are two of the more prominent names that Canham will tutor and chaperone around the North countries. THE 11-MAN contingent is slat- ed to fly from New York on August 1, arriving in Oslo a few days lat- er on the first leg of its junket. Meets have been scheduled just about every day in the smaller Norwegian and Swedish cities to whet the racing appetite of these nations where track is the national sport. Other athletes selected by the AAU to make up Canham's squad are Joe Lapierre, Georgetown miler with a 4:08 clocking this year, John Bennett, the 24-foot Marquette broadjumper, Jim Rogers, a quartermiler from Morgan State and Bill Johnson, fleet Pepperdein hurdler. Rounding out the American good-will clan are Jerry Walter, LAAC half-miler, Bruce Drum- mond, a miler from Oklahoma, and U.S. WOMEN WIN AT NET: PGA Tourney Tees Off at Birmingham pole vaulter Van Zimmerman from the University of Pennsyl- vania. The trip isn't costing the AAU a cent, since Scandanavian ama- teur groups, which reap huge pro- ceeds from sell-out meets, foot all the bills including transportation and expenses. Canham was one of three coaches nominated to take picked teams to Europe this summer. Also chosen yesterday by vote of the 70-man AAU selection committee from a list of 17 American coaches were Hec Edmonson of Washing- ton and Wilbur Huttsel of Auburn. NEW YORK- () --Only two second basemen have led the Na- tional League in batting during the past 25 years, but Red Scho- endienst, St. Louis Cardinal's sec- ond sacker, appears to have a good chance of doing just that this season. The 30-year-old Schoendienst became the first major league player to collect more than 100 hits this year when he garnered a pair in Monday night's game against the Chicago Cubs. * * * THE HITS gave Red a total of 101 in 292 times at bat for a league-leading average of .346. He gained five points last week with 12 safeties in 31 trips. The American League race is GUS ZERNIAL ... AL homer leader developing into a four-man af- fair among Billy Goodman, George Kell and Tom Umphlett, all of the Boston Red Sox, and Mickey Vernon of the Washing- ton Senators. Goodman leads with .332. Kell is next at .330, followed by Vernon's .328 and Umphlett's .325. The first three are former American League batting champions. * * * BROOKLYN'S Jackie Robinson, the last second sacker to top the National League in hitting (.342 in 1949), is runner-up to Schoen- dienst with a .335 mark. Ted Kluszewski of Cincinnati, who hit three homers last week, took over the National League lead in that department with 22. Roy Campanella, Brooklyn cat- cher. continues to set the pace In runs batted in with 64. In the American League, Phila- delphia's Gus Zernial has struck the most circuit blows, 18, and Al Rosen of the Cleveland Indians has batted in the most runs, 53. EDDIE LOPAT, although he dropped his first decision last Sat- urday, still is the American, Lea- gue's No. 1 pitcher. The New York Yankee southpaw has an 8-1 (.889) record. Lew Burdette of Milwaukee heads the National with seven victories and no losses. Slugging averages compiled by the Associated Press show that Bell tops the National' League with a .617 mark. In the American League, Al Rosen -of the Cleveland Indians shows the top figure of .574. By The Associated Press BIMINGHAM -- Golf's long- est and toughest grind, the PGA championship, begins its week- long run today with two strong- backed tournament pros sharing the favorite'sdrole-Sam Snead and Cary Middlecoff. Jim Turnesa, the mild-man- nered defending champion from Briarcliff, N. Y., himself is pick- ing Snead, a three-time winner, as the man most likely to survive the 203-hole medal and match play marathon. * * * "YOU HAVE TO pick Snead in every tournament he plays," said Turnesa, who might be excused for not reading up on the U.S. Open. Middlecoff, winner of the Carlings Open at Cleveland over the week-end, comes to Birm- ingham with his clubs "hot," as the boys say, and with a big collection of backers, including former champion Vic Ghezzi. Ghezzi, the giant Italian who is the favorite golfing partner of the Duke of Windsor, said: "This is a course which will pay a premium to good drivers. That shoots Mid- dlecoff right into the limelight." * * * THE COURSE is the tight, 6,465- yard Birmingham Country Club layout. Its par 71 has been made less attainable by a sharp narrow- ing of the fairways and planting of numerous new traps which force greater shooting accuracy. One hundred and forty pro- fessionals tour the course to- morrow in the first of two rounds of qualifying. The low 64 for the 36 holes tomorrow and Thursday make the cham- pionship bracket, which plunges immediately into a rigorous match play schedule. Two 18-hole rounds Friday cut the field to 16. From that point 36-hole rounds will be held daily until the finals next Tuesday. This is the most unpredictable of all tournaments and it's a good bet many of the favorites won't be around for the shooting early next week. * * * TURNESA announced today he would seek the meddi1 although, as champion, he is exempt from qualifying. The low medal carries a $250 prize. "I'm not playing well," said the swarthy New Yorker. "I've only had a few rounds the last few months when I haven't had a seven or an eight on my card." Snead is trying to catch up with Walter Hagen's record of five PGA championships, but he isn't the only one in the list with such a good start. Gene Sarazen, playing in his 29th PGA tournament, also has three titles. He has won a record 53 matches. * * * WIMBLEDON, England -- An All-American women's final was set up for the eighth straight year at Wimbledon when defending champion Maureen Connolly of San Diego, Calif., and three other Americans won semi-final berths yesterday in the all-England lawn tennis championships. }. i .,a{ ;Iy " 24 '1 SAL REFERENCE BOOKS All'Subjects Thousands at j9C and up ULRICH'S BOOKSTORE Opposite Engineering Arch I SUMMER SPECIALS LEISURE SLAX WASHABLE RAYONS S95 ° ASSORTED COLORS * SPOT RESISTANT t CREASE RESISTANT * NATIONALLY ADVERTISED FADED BLUE DENIM SLAX Sanforized 99 Comfortable, Cool ...........
