At least two of the boys will start the Magna contest. Ford is a sure starter on the hill. The big righthander has a season record of eight wins against four defeats, de-feats, and will be seeking to bow out with a victory. Rasmuson is the other sure starter. He has played at shortstop short-stop the last three games, but may be moved back to his accustomed ac-customed right field spot in order to break LaVar .Kump back into the lineup at -his old post.

Dispute Stirs Olympic Board OSLO, Norway. Aug. 27 U.P A dangerous breach, threatening sports, developed today with the ' United States and Great Britain' The International Amateur Athletic Federation, which set the .pattern for the eligibility eligi-bility rules of the Olympic games, attempted to put off a showdown yesterday when it voted to defer a ruling on the question of "broken time" payments for athletes competing com-peting In international games. But Bo Lindman of Sweden, whose athletes just won the postwar post-war renewal of the European) track and field championships, jumped up to inform the congress delegates that his country would ignore the action. Lindman said Sweden would pay its athletes for wages lost from their normal jobs while training and competing in international inter-national meets, whether international interna-tional rules are violated or not. Five European nations Norway, Sweden. Denmark, Finland and Belgium offered of-fered proposals to permit "broken time" payments. In reply, Avery Brundage of the l S. warned that the pending pend-ing vote was "the most dangerous dan-gerous moment in athletic history." "If you adopt this proposal, it is the beginning of the end of the IAAF," Brundage said. The congress ducked an immediate im-mediate showdown, voting 28 to 19 to adopt a proposal by Harold Abrahams of Britain that the matter be studied by the feder ation's amateur committee which will present its findings to the next congress in January, 1948. The lowest temperature ever recorded on the earth was -90 at Verkhayansk, Siberia, in 1892.
