that Francis seemed to prefer the high stepping trotters and Quinn prefers them because they haven’t so much equipment to get hooked up in, they're freer and easier to handle.

NEW YORK (APl—Remem- ber when they were speculating whether or not Willie Mays would finish the 1964 National League baseball season with an average of .400 or higher?

That was approximately iour months ago after San Francisco Giants' outfielder had com-- plated the first month of the campaign on May 14 with a .449 mark.

He's now hitting .299.

This isn’t the first time this year that Willie's percentage has dipped. under .300. He was at .267 after the opening four games of 1964. In game 0. 5 though, he had two hits in four at bats, lifting his average to .316 It increased steadily there- after through (a 20-game batting streak.

However. on June 14 his av- erage had dropped to .364. On July 14 it was .334 and on Aug. 14 .323. In the past month, cov- ering 27 games, he has col- lected ,only 19 hits in 97 tries for a .196 pace. Mays hasn't finished under .300 since 1956. t

Russia Sends 341 Athletes

MOSCOW (AP) — The Soviet Union plans to send 341 athletes to Tokyo "to prove once more" that it has the strongest Olym- pic team in the world. Yuri Mashin, leader of the Sovxet Olympic team. placed more emphas'n on national glory than personal achievement as he out- lined Russia’s Olympic plans at a press conference Monday.

The final Olympic team se- lections will not be announced until Thursday, but Mashtn said plans call for men to com- pete in 20 sports and 68 women in seven sports. Mashin mod- estly predicted the Soviets will win 40 to 50 gold medals and will pile in 720 points. Officially no point totals are recognized in the Olympic games.

The Soviet team won 37 golo medals at the Melbourne Olym- pics in 1956 and 43 gold medals at Rome in 1960.

Chief rivals for unofficial team honors will be the United States. the combined team from East and West Germany and the host Japanese team, Mashio said. The Americans will do their best to close the gap from the last two Olympics, in which the Soviet Union the
