And still remembers with sigh,
The days that are no more.

When Paddock that he
accepted the invitation Of the Univer-
sity Of Paris and would compete In
the games. II was "unofficially''
pointed out from headquarters here
that no American athlete coulc be ac-
cepted as an entry in a foreign meet
without the approval of the Ameri-
can governing body.
Paddock, in Pasadena today, told
the United Press lint he was going
to a college meet as a college athlete.
under the colors of the University of
Southern California and that the A.
A. U. had no jurisdiction over him
when he was running as a college
man.
Paddock admitted that he had not
asked h approval of the A. a. u.
that he had no permit and that he
was going to sail anyway on the liner
Parts on April IS.
No INC could be found here today
who was willing to express any Off
cial opinion on what retaliation. IL
any, the a, A. L. would take.
Many consider here hat Paddock
Is perfectly within his rights and
that he could not he reprimanded
or punished for making the trip.
Teams from Yale, Harvard, Prince
ton. Cornell and Pennsylvania have
made trips to Europe in the past
without consulting the A. A. U. and
II southern California has no objec-
ton to Paddock's trip the A. A. L..
is in no position to protest or take
action to stop him.
The only censure tina Paddock IS
open to is his failure to carry out tho
wishes of the American Olympic OK
ecutive committee which asked all
Candidates for the American team to
foreso foreign trips this year and
prepare for the international games
in Paris next summe
Even on this point Paddock is not
guilty of defiance or lese mapestc.
He would not make the trip IL he
thought he would infure himself as
he certainly wants to get in the
sprinting events at Paris next sum-
mer.
The meet TO which Paddock plans
to compete is the start of n move
ment to establish an athletic carnival
among French colleges n prep
schools patterned after the Penn re
lay games. 1t is nothing but the mag
unanimous thing Cor American col
leres to do to send sdme American
representatives and no better head
i'ner could be desired by the French
officials than Paddock.
