Philadelphia, April 29. Johnny Gibson of the ronx, wearing the mcroon of Fordham, defeated Lord Brghley, bearing the light blue of Cambridge University, England, In the 400 metres international hurdle race at Franklin Fleid here today.

On the same field Vernon Kennedy, student at the Missouri State Teaph-ers' College, rose from comparative obscurity to fame by ir.at.ng decathlon honors, witjk a record point total. These two events were the features" of today's programme at the thirty-third Pennsylvania relays carnival which continues here tomorrow. Because of a wholesale withdrawal of entries in the event, the international race was held at the time for which the heats originally were scheduled, and only a handful of the 15,000 spectators who later attended saw the clash of England and America. Besides Gibson and Lord Burghley, the only other starter was T. C.

Liv-ingstone-Learmouth, also of Cambridge University. The three finished wRhin three yards of each other, with Gibson having two yards tver Lord Burghley and the nobleman a yard on his teammate. Gibson's time was .65 2-6, a fifth of a second faster than, his time last year when he also won the event. This time was far elower, than the recoi for the event and also behind Lord Burghley's time of 64 4-5 seconds, made when he won in 1925. The race today was in the nature of revenge for as he was behind Lord Burghley In the 1925 race.

There was a time in today's race when it looked as if all the advance predictions regarding a victory for Gibson or Lord Burghley would bo upset- as Llvingstone-Leai ou'h was in the lead throughout than half of the race. This may have been strategy on the part of the Englishman, however, as with I.earmouth leading at the outside and Gibson, second. Lord Burghley lay behind the Fordham (man. Lord Burghley made a great sprint, but Gibson was ready and met it to force the Cambridge man into second place. To many, the race was looked upon as a world's Intercollegiate championship as Lord Burghley is considered the best college timber-topper in England or on the Continent.

The second British bid for Individual honors was frustrated in the 120-iard high hurdles. Two Cambridge entries, Bowler and Richardson, failed to qualify In the first trials. World's record laurels fell to the crack Mercerburg Academy quar tette, which lowered its own quarter-mile interscholastic relay mark to 42 4-5 seconds, and the University of Pennsylvania's sprint team, which romped oft with the quarter-mile college championship in-41 3-5 seconds, equalling the world's re cord set here last summer by the Newark Athletic Club in the na Mortal championships.

GERMANY PREPARES FOR DAYIS GDP PLAY Fatherland Returns to International Tennis Competition After 13 Years' Isolation Special Cable to the NT. Times and Montreal Berlin, April 29. German tennis players, practically isolated from the rest of the world for thirteen years, find difficulty in gauging their chances 'of victory in the coming Davis Cup tournament Their three-day competition with Richards and Kinsey last summer leads to belief that thai" showing should be an excellent one. TBe red and white club still echoes to Richard's com ment that the German metnoo oi nlnv trtundamentally sound. Both Richards and Kinsey were tried and did not play at top ionn, hit if miint also be remembered that they did not meet Germany's best players.

rrouzneim, tno amncui champion' and former Davis Cup con tender for tne latneriano, preierrou not to meet the American invasion then, basing his refusal to piay on the difference in the weight of ten-ni bulls used by the Americans. Landmann, who played the most brilliant game against Richards, went on the courts after only a short training. Rake Klelnschroth apparently was affected at the start with stage fright, but showed ex-eellent form after settling down. Those three men probably will meet Davis Cup contenders along witn Kreuzer II. Klelnschroth, brother of Rake, and Handemann Moldenhauer.

The Klelnschroth brothers tako longer chances than other champions in nhe German courts, but they also are accurate placers of drives; the Germans Indulge little In net play, driving from back court to base line. All the contenders are sUong on smashing lobs'. Frau Frledleben, Frau Nephach and Freulein Aussem are among the candidates for the' women's teams, and since they have not had an opportunity to play many foreign stars, their strength cannot be judged. One thing all the players are resolved upon. Whether their playing wins a place In the sun or not, they ore determined to show the rest of the world they are Imbued with tht spirit of Foot fault-litk, lack of consideration of opponents or questionable play of any sort never can be charged against Oermans, -they want to demonstrate.
