Pollet Is Back With Chisox Again CHICAGO 0PI Pitcher Howie Pollet, released by the Chicago White Sox just one week ago, was rehired Saturday. On May 19, the New York Yankees beat Pollet during their sweep of a Chicago series, and after the game the Sox announced they had asked for waivers on the veteran 34-year-old lefthander for purposes of unconditional release. Then during the past week came the trade with Baltimore, in which the Sox gave up four players to get two. The trade left a vacant spot on the Sox roster. Yesterday they announced that Pollet, who has a 1-1 record for the year, will be back in a Sox uniform today.

Another creditable performance was the 14-6 pole vatilt by Michigan's exchange student from Finland, Eeles Landstrom, which was four inches below the Big Ten mark but set a new Memorial Stadium record. Manhattan Nips Villanova Squad Delany Fails In Twin Attempt By ED CORRIGAX NEW- YORK Lfl Slim John Haines of Penn won both the 220-yard dash and the quarter mile run a feat that has been accomplished just twice before in the 20th century and Manhattan edged Villanova for the team title Saturday in the IC 4-A track and field championships. Haines, a 23-year-old four-time National indoor sprint champion, passed up defense of his 100-yard dash title to try for the same double that Charlie Reid-path of Syracuse and Ray Bar-buti, also of Syracuse, scored in 1912. and 1929, respectively. Beats Jenkins He zipped to a 20.5 victory in the 220 and 47.3 triumph in the quarter.

No one in the crowd of 4,500 in Randall's Island Stadium expected Haines to lose the 220, but there were doubts that he could beat National champion Charlie Jenkins of Villanova in the quarter. Starting from the outside lane, the worst spot, Haines stayed in front all the way and fought off a closing burst by Jenkins to get home ahead by about three yards. Probably the only person in the stadium who expected Haines to take Jenkins measure was his coach, Ken Doherty, who has been telling him for three years that he would make a great quarter Both Reidpath and Barbuti went on to win the Olympic 400-meter championships, so Haines' feat may be significant. Too Much Wind His 220 clocking equalled the meet record, but it was disallowed because the wind was faster than-the allowed 4.6 miles per hour. Herb Carper of Pitt also saw his 9.4 record in the 100-yard dash record tossed out because of the wind.

Haines, ironically, holds the 100-yard mark. 9.5. Villanova's Ron Delany bit off more than he could chew, though in trying for the mile-half mile double. He won the mile by about two yards from Jim Dou-lin of Manhattan in 4:14.4 after making up a 12-yard deficit on the backstretch. But then he tackled Arnie Sowell of Pitt, the favorite for the Olympic 800-meter championship, and his come-from-behind system didn't work.

Sowell Stays Ahead Sowell galloped to the front at the start, taking no chances with a tough critter like Delany, and stayed ahead all the way. The Villanova Irishman made up some yardage, but it probably was because Sowell knew he had the race won. His time was 1:51.1. Just as they did in winning the indoor title, George East-ment's Jaspers from Manhattan won by spreading their forces, rather than concentrating on winning individual events. Villanova won five events to two for Manhattan, but the Jaspers collected a half-dozen seconds and two thirds.
