(By All-u Gould, Associated Prose S Edlfo

(A. P. By Guardian's Special Wire) NEW YORK, Oct. Eli-The most hlshly prized of all amateur athlet- ic awards in the United States, the James E. Sullivan Memorial Medal for outstanding achievement character, is likely to go to the far west this year, with Benjifinin 138-1188 Eastman and William Law- son Little, Jr., ranking well on top of the field of candidates so far put forward in a nation-wide roll. Competition for the medal, which is awarded annually by the Alnfl- teur Athletic Union on a voting basis, has been re-opened to include representatives in all United States amateur sports for 1934. Last year, when Glenn Cunningham nosed out his mile-running rival, Bill 3011311011. by a single vote, candid- ates wene limited to the branches (g athletics controlled by the A. A.

Now, however, with the contest wide open again, Little has a chance to gain the same distinction that went to Bob Jones, who was voted the Sullivan medal in 1980 after completing his "grand slam" in golf. The Californian registered a "little slam" this year, by cap- turing both the British and United States amateur golf championships, but his achievement ranks among the greatest for I934 in any branch of amateur competition.

Meanwhile, another of Stanford Unlversitys athletic sons. Eastman, appears to have ramped into an early lead in the preliminary test of opinion and may secure too much of an advantage for Little or any other rival to overcome in the stretch drive. Nominations do not close until Nov. 15 but Eastman's name ls more prominently mention- age than that of any other candid- a .
