great coaches OF the present day. He
has developed some wonderful men"
Rivals But Friends.
A talk with these men cannot help
but give the impression that what
each says Of the other is true.
Every year they pit their teams
against each other on the track paths.
They know each others systems and

most from them. They produce new
stars from year to year.

The selection Of the U. S. Olympic
coach will not be made until after the
tryouts in July, according to Gus Xii
BY, head Of the committee.
The work OF the coach in charge
of the American boys will be very
light until the team reaches Antwerp.
But once on the scene Of the great
games he will have a strenuous week.
for It is in this short time that the
Yanks must acquire the final edge
for the struggle with the flower o.
Europe's athletes.
But either Robertson or MoaEley
will be capable Of doing the JOB as 1t
should be done-that Is with the
