Archie Rosica, millionaire's son, is rapidly developing into one of the most promising motor pace bike riders in the country.

Archie Rosica Attains Chief Ambition as Bike Rider una miemuon. Led by a powerful band of athletes from the Los Angeles A. C. which captured team honors by an overwhelming margin and also carried off seven of the 20 Individual titles, the track and field talent of the Far West turned in the most spectacular performances as Uncle Sam served notice of considerable strength at his command for the meet with the British Empire at Chicago Wednesday night. Sharing the spotlight was the latest renewal of sprinting rivalry between Eddie Tolan of the University of Michigan and George Simpson of Ohio State.

This time the honors In the 100-yard dash went to Michigan's "Midnight Express" after a great race. The Buckeye Bullet came back to beat Tolan in the 200-yard sprint and set a new American record of 21.3 seconds fcr this event around a turn. RECORDS TOPPLE All told, one world's record was set, another was equalled, three American records went by the board and five championship records went In to the discard as this 55th annual meet provided all the thrills that had been anticipated and more besides. Perhaps the outstanding Individ, ual feat was that of Paul Jessup. 6 foot 6 Inch discus thrower from the Washington A.

C. of Seattle. This human skyscraper fdom the Great Northwest threw the discus 169 feet, inches to better by six feet the present world's record held by Eric Krenz of Stanford University, who did not compete here. WESTERNERS STAR Steve Anderson, also of the Washington delegation, equalled the world mark of 14.4 to retain his 120-yard high hurdle championship with several feet to spare; Herman Brix, former University of Washington athlete now competing for the Los Angeles A. set a new American mark of 52 feet 5H inches for the shot-put, and Jimmy Dcmers of the Los Angeles A.

C. sent the JaveHn hurtling away to a distance of 222 feet 674 inches to beat the American record by a good 10 feet. Ed Genung, an unheralded Washington A. C. half-mllcr, reeled og the distance In 1:53.4 to set a new meet record.

Surprises were many on both track and field. Pete Bowen, quarter-mile title holder, lost his crown in a thrilling race won by Vic Williams of the Los Angeles A. C. and collapsed into the cinders. Anderson, after retaining his high hurdling crown, went out to defend his honors In the 220 low sticks and failed In dramatic fashion, falling when In the second place and almost within reaching distance of the tape while Bob Maxwell of the Los Angeles A.

C. went on to win with Lee Sentman of the University of Illinois as runner-up. STURDY BEST VAl'LTER Fred Sturdy, once of Yale and now of the Los Angeles A. won his pole vaulting argument with Tommy Warne of Northwestern Univers ity, oui in unconclusive fashion- as Warne sprained an ankle and was unable to continue In a Jump-off after both had cleared 13 feet. 8 Inches.

The showing of Ed Hamm, the Olympic champion, and Ed Gordon, University of Iowa Negro and the defending title holder here, In their specialty, the broad Jump, proved a disappointment. Neither appeared in top form and both failed to place as Al Bates, former Penn State athlete, won with a leap of 24 feet i inches.

Pres ton Goodlellow, publisher, said when i he learned of Yager's death: "The Eagle has suffered a real loss in the death of Abe Yager. I During 45 years of newspaper work he made a host of friends for his paper and himself by his fairness and fearlessness in writing sporting events. He was a man of unusual energy and a nationally recognized authority on sports.

Recently he worked under physical handicaps which made his associates marvel. The world of sport has losta real champion." One of the first to eulogize Yager i was his lile long friend Judge Steve i McKeever of the Brooklyn baseball club. "Abe Yager was the greatest and truest man ever met in my life. For 40 year? I knew that boy and watched him," the Judge said. 'Night and day he was always at his Job and always made good.

He had the most beautiful family in the world, his wife and his two sons and his daughter. His death is a great loss to baseball." OLD ROBINS SADDENED BY NEWS When news of Yager's death reached the Brooklyn Robins in Cincinnati about to return nomt alter a dismal collapse on western batllelields, the old stagers with the Robins were deeply saddened There aren't many left on the Brooklyn ball team who knew i Yager except by reputation.

I loved that little fellow and admired him. With his dath the Brooklyn I ball club has lost one of its greatest Inends. "I dont suppose any one will ever real ze how much Abe did for baseball in Brooklyn over the long stretch of years he was Identified with the game in his work.

I know fcr a fact Charles H. Ebbets frequently sought his advice and not infrequently took it. Ebbets once called Abe the accredited representative of Brooklyn tans, and that was a most fitting compliment." Otto Miller la a burly coach today, but In the duys of Abe's clo" connections th the ball club he was a ball player. Otto declared: "Abe was the most popular baseball writer among bail players that ever knew. So many writers of: that day had the faculty of making a player feel that he had committed Forni; kind of a crime for booting one In the field.

But not Abe. He had a sympathetic way with him that bucked up a fellow, made him frcl that he might amount to snme- thing even though he had kicked away yesieraay Dan game. i VANCE MISSES LONG GABFESTS Vance and De Berry were breaking with the Robins In Yager's closing days as an active baseball writer. Both had developed a strong liking for the veteran scribe. Vance's fondness for "bnrbering" Is well known.

Abe also loved to sk from a o'clock until midnight on spring training and swap yarns. "I misled those loni gabfests after Abe was unable to come south with I us." sa the veteran pitcher. "He had a rare streak of quiet humor ana was good for many a lauih In the course of any evening. He a one of the flne.t fellows I've ever met In or out of baseball."

Kaufmann, a reformed pitcher, has been plavlng the outfield because of his hitting ability. Giants, spoke of Abe as the type of ma who made baseball the game mac is today. "I knew Abe for many, many years.

He can be best character- lzed as the 'little gentleman of sports." He was a true baseball fan and the sort of booster and worker that made the game the national sport." Charles Stoneham, president and owner of the Giants, who Is In Chicago, was shocked and deeply grieved when he received news of Yager passim. "Baseball has lost a true friend." he said, and ex- pressed his regret that he could not be at the funeral. One of Yaser's contemporaries. Joe Vila, sports editor of the New York Sun. found him the fairest of men and the "squarest shooter." He said: "I have always found him a true friend.

He was one of the best and most Interesting writers that I have ever encountered. He was official scorer of the Brooklyn Baseball Club and his Judgment was never questioned because he was always fair. We men who have known him for a long time and worked with him HALED AS PIONEER SPORTING EDITOR Louis De Casanova, yachting au- thnritv and colleague of Yaicr's. contrlbutlons to sport and journalism: "Modern newspaper readers accustomed to see three and four devoted each day to sporting news probably do not know that Abe Yager was responsible for the sporting page as we find It today. More than 40 years ago he visualized a department of a newspaper that would be devoted daily to sports.

With a paste pot. a pair of shears, and a pencil as his principal aids, he whipped together a department that has grown into the present sporting paoe. He was one of the first sporting cditois to use double column measure for feature stories, to balance a page so that It would be attiac-tlve. and to play up pictures. One of his most interesting Innovations was a double truck sporting that was 14 columns wide and had down the center a special department that was almost two columns wide.

"For several months, back about 1910, this unique and unusually attractive sporting page appeared In the Eatle. But owing to mechanical dlCicultles the double-truck pa.e was dropped, and then Yager began to build up well-balanced single such as are found today. However, he always believed ihtit the double-truck pae was; th" mcst artistic arrangement of type ever seen In a 'porting section. "Not onlv as he exceptionally clever In 'making up a page' but hls knowledge of sports, gained over a period of 45 years, was prounbly not excelled by any other sporting editor In (he country. He knew all sports thoroughly, their news value and hat a story mas worth In a paper.

That Is why he was con- sldered one of the greatest sporting editors that has ever lived YAGER EI LOGIZLD BY E. G. MARTIN A glowing tribute was paid by Edwin O. Martin, president of the Municipal Club of Brooklyn and former business manager of the Eagle: "I have known Abe Yager Intimately since he was a ccpy bny In the Bid Eale Building on lower Fulton Street and I was a buddint-tclerraph operator. Aay back In thoss days, Abe hoed the same ehara'terlstlcs of courtesy, kindness and consideration, that developed as he grew and which made for hun ro many friends among the worth-while people of Brooklyn and elsewhere.

"In those days when sports writer! were permitted more latitude for Individual expression than thev are today, Abes writing scintillated with orlKlnallty, wit and humor that made hl column one of the out-tendlng features of the Eagle. "And when he turned his face to the sunset, snd his eyes grew dim, t'' soul of one who had the Instincts, tl-e attributes and the manners of a gentleman pa.ed on i beyond the stars." O-WOnKERS HARDEST HIT BY ABE'S DEATH The man most afferted bv the pasilng of Yager was Eddie Forbe. veteran boxing referee and for years his closest friend. "Abe was the elanet and squarest man the world ever knew, a real pal. He had everything, ability, personality, kindliness.

He made many a good snort wmrr budding young men. while his contributions to Journallm are Invaluable. He was a great and good man." J. Murphy. asiUlnnt sporte erlitor and )0rg an ssvKiste of Yaier's afj: "Young newspaper men have lost a kind and Mwere fri-irt In Abe.

His passing Is a i blow to the world, and tliont has Just bought him a roadster to carry his cycles from his home in the Bronx to Coney Island. "They're an awful expense," said Archie. "The tires blow out so quickly." FAMILY LOYAL ROOTERS The Rosica family has gone bike-race enthusiasts since their boy has made such progress on the saucer, and there Isn't one meet that goes by that doesn't find all the folks sitting in the front row of the grandstand. Even mother who finally learned to dispense with her worry-is one of Archie's foremost rooters. "As a boy, I saw Vincente Madonna ride behind the motorcycles in New Yoik and ever since then I've wanted to be like him," Archie reminisced.

"You can have all your golf and tennis and polo, but even if I were a millionaire in, my own rip ht, I'd still ride in the bike races." For two years Archie rode as an amateur, and once In a meet in the New York Velodrome he was In a crash and went sprawlin? to the track with a brain concussion. He spent a month in Fordham Hospital recuperating, but as soon as he was able to get around, his first thought was his wheel. In 1928 he turned professional and has since been riding in the motor-paced races. "Since I have been riding at Coney, my father has used 200 gallons of gasoline in his car to brin my family from the Bronx." said the youth laughing, "and what I make here I spend on my bicycles and my father even gives me more money for them besides." Archie has never been out with a girl In his life and when he isn't racing, he's in bed every night at 9 o'clock sharp. George Wiley, at one time motor-paced champion of the world, has taken him under his wins and gives him first-rate training.

Aug 23 OP) Frank WykofT. whose speed twice carried him to a new world's rerord for the 100-yard dash, broke his left ankle last Sunday, it was disclosed here today. The break, a double fracture, was ci used when a horee kicked him at the ranch of his atmt, Mrs.

Martha Swain, near Centralis. Wash. It first was thought to be onlv severe brul.se, and not until Wykoff's return here late yesterday with his parents was the truth learned. Only four years ago a 16-year-old high school boy with an eye to becoming a lawyer was graduated from James Monroe High School. On the night of the big event his father gave him a shiny new bicycle, which meant more to htm than the diploma he held In his hand.

Archie Rosica got one of the biggest thrills of his life that night when he Jumped on to his wheel and rode it around the block for its first trip, of which it had many more in the following davs. He was happiest because up to the time he was ready (o enter college It was N. Y. U. that he planned to attend his mother would never allow him to have his own bicycle, because she worried that he might get into an accident riding in the gutter.

Now his big day had come and he could spend the rest of his life, If he wanted to, riding. And that's exactly what he's doing. Archie is 20 years old now, well built and handsome. He has never gone a day without riding his wheel since that first trip on his graduation niRht, except for the time he spent in the Fordham Hospital after a "spill." Now he is a professional bike racer at the Conev Island Velodrome, riding behind a speeding motorcycle. Even as a youngster, Archie had a I olace In his heart for all bike riders, When his father took him to the races, his joy beat a note faster as he saw the pedalers sweer) around the turns.

His love for bike riding never burned out. No matter how much he persuaded, however, his mother was firm. It wasn't a matter of money in the Rosica family, because his father Is one of Manhattan's wealthy designers. Since he first started to ride, Archie has had wheels for all the days In the week and at present keeps a rack of five. As a matter of fact, his father Inc.v: third.
