Professionals Can
Not Enter Olympics

Prague, Czecho -Slovakia, June l.
Any athlete who is or has been a pro-
fessional in any sport cannot compete
in the Olympic games.
This was the decision reached today
by the Olympic technical congress.
The congress laid down. the general
principle. once a professional always
professional.
The congress decided that the exact
definition of professionalism should be
made by the international sporting
federations.
The congress also decided to exclude
from the games any athlete who re-
ceives money to reimburse them for
the loss of wages.
Gustav T. Kirby of the United
States led the fight against the reim-
bursement of lost wages, avowing that
those who asked to be paid for the
time they devoted to sports should be-
come professionals.
The Olympic games were for ANA
tours and for nobody but amateurs, he
protested,

Surprise It Was Needed

She was a nurse in hospital sew
eral hundred miles from Indianap-
oils. AS well-to-do patient left the
hospital she offered the nurse a sum
of money as a special token of her
appreciation. On being told that It
was against the rules of the institu-
ton for nurses to accept such "tok-
ems" the patient asked whether gifts
also were taboo and insisted that she
wished to express her appreciation in
some material way. The nurse re-
sponded that there was no ban on
gifts. A few days later the nurse
received a neat little box, carefully
wrapped in a manner that gave no
clew to its contents. With a quick
ening of the pulses and f1utter
about the heart the efficient nurse
proceeded to open the package.

What advice can you give to
a player anxious to improve his
game?
By ABE G. ESPINOSA
One of Americas Leading
Professionals

My advice to player anxious to
improve his game is to go about II
bodybuilding for future pro-
fciency through sound knowledge
of the essential shots, such as the
drive, approach, putt, etc. The first
step should be to take series OF
lessons from a good professional.
This will assist very materially In
correcting such faults as may exist.
Do not attempt to play many
friendly" rounds-but get plenty
of practice. Spend some time on
the various shots whenever the op-
portunity presents itself. And al
ways make it a point to play with
better golfers than yourself rather
than with other poor players. A
round with the pro occasionally
holds many benefits for the golfer
anxious to play better game.
A hip-size booklet which you can
carry on the links and which con-
tains answers to seventy-two goll
ouestions-answers written by the
biggest stars of the game-can be
obtained by sending 10c in stamps

in my role, If II ever began to

In a recent recapitulation OF
the stage season of 1924-25 in The
Washington Times the dramatic
editor pointed out the rather
disappointing Quality of 192i-2o
stage drama by comparison with
the attractions of a year ago.

two Loew theaters here to the
point of remarking that, regard
less OF the quality Of .924-2S
stage entertainment, Loew's Pal
ace and Loew's Columbia have
never been able before to Offer
their patrons such a remarkably
fine list of screen attractions as
they have so far this season.
For example, among the attrac-
tions offered since the season
opened last August at Loew's Pal
ace are to be found the follow
ing pictures Of unusual merit:

D'Urbervilles, from the famous
English melodramatic classic CT

vulsing comedy, 1.-THE Navigator;
