Make History MYSTERIOUS PEACE FEELERS Its being kept very hush-husbut something important Is brewing behind the scenes regarding peace writh Japan. Highest officials wont say a word about It, not even to some of their cabinet colleagues. However, peace feelers which have come from the Japs have been much more than feelers despite Secretary Grews denials. One of them was debated by the combined chiefs of staff for more than a week, It proposed that the Japs withdraw from Korea and Manchuria and all China if (1) they could keep the emperor, and (2) they would not be Invaded. Meanwhile, Joe Grew and the army and navy have prepared a directive outlining the minimum terms we would accept from the Japs. This is one of the most highly guarded documents In the government. However, it can be stated on high authority that the Grew peace plan would permit the Japs to retain Emperor Hirohito. It can also be stated that there difference of Is considerable administraInside the opinion tion regarding the Grew memorandum, and some of his colleagues Inside the state department, including Assistant Secretary Will Clayton and Assistant Secretary Dean Acheson, are vigorously opposed.

Some think a Chinese invasion is necessary to protect our invasion flank when we land In the main Jap Islands. Others believe a Chinese Invasion would only use tight shipping and result in unnecessary casualties. The easiest way to aid China, they argue, is to defeat Japan quickly, not get bogged down with a long fight on the Chinese mainland. C, The entire Jap administrative system has broken down.

I had that record mark In my mind before the race was run. I was thinking of it while waiting for the starters pistol. At the bark of the gun I was away faster than usual. At the 50 yard mark I knew I had made the (Fastest time of my career for that distance. I increased my speed on the way home and at the 75 or 80 yard mark I could see that 9!4 or perhaps 9'6 all ready for track history. Then a queer tiling happened, at this point I suddenly felt my leg ligaments and leg muscles begin to quiver, as if they were being torn loose from the bone. In that split second I caught the flash that If 1 continued tills same pace I would probably finish as a cripple. So I called off any continuance of full pressure and eased down. Even then I again ran the distance In s of a where I threw away second in those last 20 or 25 yards. I found later, however, that my judgment had been correct, for I was sore and lame In the calves of both legs for a week. The speed and the stamina were there, but the physical structure wasnt for that pace. two-fifth- 9, Gehrigs Hard Luck Much along the same line, which proves again how difficult it is to crack certain marks, Is Lou Gehrigs case. Here was another star who came within a half turn of setting one of the greatest records ever written by the ash. Up to June 3, 1932, only two men In baseball history had ever hit four home runs In one game. The first quadruple blast came from the bat of Bobby Lowe of Boston In May, 1894. Two years later big Ed Delehanty of Philadelphia, one of the great hitters of all time, plastered four out of the park to tie Lowes record. Sixteen years later Lon Gehrig had his big chance. Facing the strong Athletic team of that season, Gehrig hit a home run his first four times at bat. ne was now on even terms with Lowe and Delehanty, with another chance left. On his final appearance Lon caught one solidly and squarely on the snout. It was the longest of his five hard smashes, but in place of traveling slightly to left or right, the big blow was caught In deep center against the fence. It was a matter of raw luck that kept Luis Angel Flrpo, the Wild Bull of the Pampas, from putting across the greatest ring sensation of all time. Few recall that the ring had been lifted that night at least 2 feet above normal. This move had been made to give the big crowd a better chance to see the fight. The drop from the ring to the press seats was a deep one. I recall saying that Id Firpo fall hate to have across my neck from the lifted plateau. It so happened that when Dempsey came through the ropes his body fell directly at Jack Lawrence, who instinctively put up both hands to protect himself. If Dempsey had toppled a foot to the right or a foot to the left the champion would almost certainly have gone all the way or at least down to the press rail so far down that he would never have had the slightest chance to get back through the ropes in time. It Is by such narrow margins thal sport history is often written. d College vs. Pro Football Greasy Neale, coach of the Philadelphia Eagles, a team that lost only one game last fall. Insists that his Eagles would have beaten either Army or Navy last fall. Coach Steve Owen of the Giants high-flyin- g doesnt agree. Army had too much youth and speed, plus a lot of power, Stevs said. We have too much experlenc just as much speed and just as much power, Neale counters. |
