Altogether Utah racked up nine first places to six for BYU. No records were broken or tied. Although the Cougars were de feated. they took some consols tion In the fact that they produc ed the ony doube winners, when lave Chadwick, the Welter, Ida., bullet, streaked to victory in the 400 and 220-yard daahea, and the lona-atriding Clarence Robiaon breezed to easy triumphs in the n lit and two-mile runs. .;. i t Stun By Bee Chadwick, who wai painfully-injured painfully-injured Wednesday when struck in the diaphragm by a shot put ball, ran the century in 10.2 sec nnHi.

To which, Mr. Deeds quite log-UUv log-UUv renlied: "Just run like heck to the finish line and have Rod Kimball (BYU trainer) pull out the stinger." - And that's exactly what the Idaho flash did.

Political partisanship and affairs af-fairs of state will be laid aside temporarily while Washington' big brass and small fry 30,000 of them watch the champ do his stuff at Griffith stadium. The professional pitching will be done by Ray Scarborough of the Seifators and Dick Fowler of the Athletics, whose 1948 records are identical 15 victories and 8 defeats. Both will throw right-handed. right-handed. Mystery Of The Year How Mr. Truman will throw is the big mystery of Ahe year bigger big-ger even than the weather, which promises to be fair and warmer. Only the president knows whether wheth-er he will throw from the right side or the left. And he isn't talking. talk-ing. He told questioners they would have to wait urijil 3 p.m. EST Monday. . Mr. Truman is ambidextrous. He pitches horseshoes and drives home an oratorical point with his left hand. He signs appropriations appropria-tions bills with his right. - The professional pollsters are not- guessing what Mr. Truman will do Monday. They had enough last November. Baseball oracles are guessing only how the teams will finish. The Athletics will field a team which experts say will finish third. The odds-makers have doomed the Senators to the same old seventh place, despite new talent which includes Sam Rente, formerly of the St. Louis Browns, at shortstop; Clyde Vollmer, onetime one-time National leaguer, in center, and former Cleveland Indian Ed Robinson at first.
