Europe Sentiment
Against Olyn,pics
Being Held in U. S.
Think Americans Can Better
Afford to TrGUeL OUerSedS
for Games.
BY HENRY FARRELL.

NEW YORK, March 21.-America has
too much money to get the 0lmpic Games
for years to come, according to Fred
erick W. Ruben, secretary of the A. A. U.
While talking at meeting OF the
Metropolitan Association last night, Ru-
bien said no city IN the United States
should get worked up over the prospect
of staging the games because it would
be a false alarm.
Sentiment among the European ma
lions, he added, is tht America has
so much money, she can do most of the
travelling. and that the games should be
kept on the other side of the water.
In building stadium and getting
ready for the games, Los Angeles has
gone ahead without receiving any en-
enlargement from the athletic authori-
ties in this country, he added.
In his position as the dictator Of anna
teur athletics Ruben ought to know
what he is talking about, but IL seems
that he differs somewhat from Baron De
Coubertin, president of the international
Olympic committee. who indicated that
the United States not only had a good
chance to get the next games, but would
get them If France defaulted.
Even though the American authorities
gave no encouragement, Los Angeles
could not be blamed for proceeding with
plans when De COutertin announced 1t
as the alternate.
There was no such sentiment against
America in Antwerp. In fact. most Of
the athletes said they wanted to come to
America because they said they thought
the games could be staged better in
this country. They chose California be-
cause Of the climate. 1t might be that
the American committee does not want
the games at home because Ii would cut
them out OF a nice trip and the chance to
see the world
The American team hardly had been
settled In Antwerp when the "authori
ties" dashed OF to Paris, to London, and
the battlnelds of France, leaving the
athletes to shift for themselves.

To R: S. Julius, one of the official tim
fell the honor of bringing to a close the
official net season of the Indiana high
brought to an end the greatest basket-b ball
year that Indiana has ever known. In
diana long has been known as hotbed
just passed did it ever reach such 81
gant1c proportions The great number
of, good teams turned out in the high
SCHOOLS this year has been amazing, and
II the progress In basketball keeps step
with It's past, next year should be even
q greater wonder year.
This years high school champs while
not as speedy, but more deliberate than
those or year ago, could well be called
the high school champs of the United
States.
In regard to all this agitation and
rumoring regarding new basket ball
coach for Shortridge High School, George
Buck, principal Of the school, made t6e
following statement:
THE reports concerning the new coach
are nothing more or less than rumors
and have no foundation whatever. As
yet there has ben no vacancy and none
Is In sight, but In case there should
be, a good man will be secured"
Work on next seasons Shortrfd ge
squad already has started under the
present coaches and there seems to be
no prospect of any change Every coach
has his off season and is due for a
lot of razzing and 1t is then that many
make the mistake of firing him in re-
Spouse to the remands of the more radi-
cal fans. He should be given a chance
to redeem himself. Perhaps the talent
was not up to standard.
Some Of the high schools have been
complaining of the shortage of candidates
for the baseball team, due to the bas-
ket-ba fever which Is now prevalent
In Indiana. Why not arrange for a
trip to Japan or India as an incentive
to bring out the holdouts?
about there being just as good athletic
house as ever warm ID the bench. This
is undoubtedly very true and in trying
TO account for their non appearance on
the athletic field a person is liable to run
into deep water. In many cases the pros
pect has not the time to engage in ath-
let1cs on account of having TO earn his
way through school. In other cases he is
not given the proper encoura cement to
apply for place on the team. He is
afraid he will be turned down, for he has
the impression that 1t is hard to break
In to the select -four hundred" who en-
gage in athletics in some schools. A
good solution to the question which will
bring out all OF the material in the school
would be welcomed by the larger high
schools, indianapolis high schools es-
pecially.
