OLYMPIC HERO WILL
PLAY IN SOME GAMES

PROVO, Feb 19.-Coach Roberts was
a little surprised at the announcement
in yesterdays Tribune of the changes In
the lineup Of his basketball team. He
thought they would not be made public
before the game next Saturday Coach
Roberts said that the Olympic hero Rich
ardson had not left the team altogether,
but would not play against the varsity
next Saturday. Richardson Is likely to
be in the lineup against the Aggles or
other less dangerous teams. Coach Rob-
erts said:
"Alma Richa rds volunteered to Join the
team last fall He has played a great
game all season and was not so much
outplayed by Romney as the papers have
asserted. but with the speed OF the uni

shall use next Saturday will hand our op-
ponents the most hulniliating surprise
they have experienced In years. We are
far from whipped yet"

There are no phony champions. there
never was one and there never VIII bc
one, Just look down the row. Any man
who ever held a championship had some
thing on all the rest, whether he was big
or little.
