Paris, Aug. 15-BasketbaI has come to stay in France, being more sure in its tenure than baseball for the reason that it Is not so difficult for adults to learn. One must begin baseball in boyhood to play well, but basketball can be acquired in a few months.
 The French entered a bask etball team in the interallied games not with the idea of wrestling a victory from the Americans, but because the game had become popular with the poilu and in French athletic circles. Frank k1eeberger, former trainer at the University of California, and now a Y. NJ c.
