Two eountries-Sweden and Italy
planted their seeds several months ago
and have a good sized crop of possible

Most of the Olympic talk in America
centers around the selection Of coach.
~Pooch Donovan, Harvard; Martin De-

successors to the. late Mike Murphy.
Robertson looms up now as the favorite
ewing to his familiarity with the Murphy
system. When Murphy was forced to his

capable director. AS a competitor and
coach, the Pennsylvania mentor took part

u THE greatest task facing the American
