Some Things to he Done.
Without presuming to be too critical
the writer believes that the Olympic
committee can be prodded on two
points: 1. No organized effort to de-
velop men to cover weak spots in the
team. 2. No person or committee IN
charge or with power TO arrange
finances for athletes to whom the
European trips mean the cutting off
of weekly wages. In the past in some
cases local groups looked after the
poor athletes family, but in more
! than one instance the trip has meant
! a real financial sacrifice.
