ICKARD 18 REGARDED Ww AS THREAT BY U.S, COACH June 7, -- Victor Pickard; the Canadian star pole vaulter, who placed in the last Olympic games, may be one of the leading foreign threats at this year's Amsterdam games. Pickard has represented the University of Pittsburg in United States college competition and tied Ward Ed- wonds of Sanford, the next thing to a champion, and Fred Sturdy, of Yale, at 12 feet 10 inches in the intercollegiate A.A.A.A. meet. Pickard is regarded as a real threat by Lawson Robertson, head coach of the United States Olym- pic team, but the Canadian Star has yet to cause Sabin Carr of Yale, the Intercollegiate A.A.A.A. champion, anything to worry about on a day when the Eli ace was in a vaulting mood, ---------- New Martin Starting Thutsday for 3 -- Days -- 3 New York, 'Won in the Clouds Everyone enjoys a picture where there are thrills, This picture is exceptional, an aeroplane picture that will hold the audience in a spell.

COMEDY Lloyd Hamilton * "Between Jobs" MONTREAL LEADS FOR HOUR AND, A HALF Toronto, June 8. -» Under the direct an old Toronto fa- vorite, Holly, the Montreal Royals won the opener in yester- day's double-header by 17 to 3, and for an hour or so led the In- ternational League, Wat the Leafs hit back in the shorter engage- ment, won by 5 to 3, and regaiy- ed the top rung. Holly took charge of the Royals, when Man- ager George Stallings was sudden- ly stricken with a severe heart attack and was taken to the Wes- tern Hospital, where it was re- ported last night that his condt- tion was fairly good. The Royals stood up manfully, following the loss of their chief, and gave everything they had in an effort to win both games and thus aid, if they could, the condi- tion of the man who put Mont- real back on the baseball' map. That they managed to grab the lead from the Leafs even for so short a time was in itself a real achievement. "Lefty Martin went the route fn the first game despite the fact that he allowed 13 safe blows. He, however, was effective in most of the tight situations, and had War- ren Cote not erred in the eighth paving the way or three 'runs, the margin of victory, the game would probably have gone into extra in- nings, But misplays or not, the Leafs had no excuse to offer. Bob Shawkey, that grand old veteran, held them to six scattered safeties and barring the first 'and sixth in- nings was inviheible, He earned the verdict, Bhawkey held Dale Alexander hitless after the latter had made a safety or more in 17 consecutive games, \ TWO WORLD'S RECORDS Fleishhacker Pool, San Franeis- co, June 7.--Two new world's rec- ords were established today in the national AAU. outdoor swim- ming championship when Clar- ence ('Buster') Crabbe, of Hon- olulu shattered his own time for the 'mile in the closing event after Johnny Weissmuller, of the Illin- ois A.C, had set a new mark in the 100 metre, free style. Weissmuller cut the water in B57 4-1 seconds, bettering his own record by one-fifth of a second. Crabhbe's time in the mile was 21.- 35 8-5 and he won as he pleased, 'finishing 90 mefres in the lead.
