Y. JULY 27. FAST LIVERPOOL REVTRW PAGE SEVEN MARATHON CLASSIC HINGES ON NURMI Problem Of Finn Pending Vote to be Held on Eligibility of Great- Star. By ALAN GOULD, Associated Press Sports Editor. 1 ANGELES.

July 27. The 41 ballots will have to be counted this week-end, after a conducted in at least three separate languages, before it is de cMed whether Paavo Nurmi makes his farewell Olympic gesture in the classic marathon, Sunday after- August 7. If Nurmi is victorious at the international polls, bis most difficult barrier may have been cleared, for In mwte of a strained Achilles tendon the great Finn Is confident he can. win the marathon in record time. Most critics agree with him Contenders Listed, if suspension stands, howsver, the crowning feature of the Olympic track and field program will be a toss-up.

The contenders, with or without Nurmi, as tile case may be, rank somewhat in this order: Paul De Bruyn of New York, representing Germany. Tsula, 1928 veteran, and two Koreans, Gon and Kin, representing Jepan. Tolvenen and Willie Kyronen, rooklyn, representing Finland. Juan Carlos Zabala and Jose Ribas of Argentina. Jimmy Henigan, Whitey MicbeV sen and Hans Oldag, U.

S. A. There is always, of course, the chance of a "dark galloping borne first In the marathon. It is a test where any one of a number of factors in weather, condition and raaing fortune may turn the pcalan. The 1928 winner, El Ouafi of France, who happened to have a big day at Amsterdam, turned pro afterward and has faded from the picture.

Relay Races Sunday. Nurmi, naturally, be handed gold medal or decorated with the laurel wreath until he finishes ahead of the pack. It is no odtis-ou bet that the celebrated Finn, at his best, can make a "show." of the strong field assembled the long distance classic. Between the start and finish of the marathon, the 400 and 1,600 meter relay championships will be decided. Both baton-passing events figure to furnish their usual grille, with the United States, deluding champion at both distances, opposed by strong teams from Geimary, Canada and Great Brittain.

i The British should be the strongest challenger In the 1,600 meter with Rampling, Stoneley, Hampsou and probably Lord Burgh ley racing the American combination of Karl Warner, Ed Ablowieh, Arnold Adams and Ivan Fuqua, all College boys.
