OLYMPIC TEAM
ANNOYED WITH
Home ATTITUDE
By FRANK GETTY
Omitted Press Sports Editor)

WITH THE L. s. OLYMPIC
TEAM, Aboard the S. S. Roosevelt,
July A. Somewhat heckled by
what they term "sniping from the
rear" the L. S. Olympic team con
tinucd to train today to be in con
dition when the Olympic games
open in Amsterdam the latter part
of the month.
The sea continued calm and it
was stifling hot here at sea. The
teams, however, seemed not to mind
the weather conditions. The sun
bronzed track men-and track wom-
en- went through their PAGES along
the track stretched on one Of the
main decks.
The team is somewhat puzzled at
the attacks from the United States
on certain cligibilities.
""Thc team seems puzzled at
this sudden attack from home just
as they were sailing for foreign
shores, - General Douglas MacAr-
thur said today.
"Thcse fine young Americans do
not understand this sniping from
the rear but as yet their morale is
unaffected and they appear serene
and determined. They feel intui-
lively that despite the criticism,
America s hearts are with each and
every one of them.
Word that the New York Athletic
clul had selected team of runners
and jumpers to come here to show
that the Olympic selection commit
tee was wrong, has Just reached the
Roosevelt Gen. Macarthur said
that if a protest or an application
was made in behalf of these sclec-
tions they would be considered by
the Olympic committee.
He points out that their selection
would involve ousting Of other
members of the team, inasmuch as
Olympic entries are limited to four
persons in each event and the en-
tries close July Is.

Oddly enough, Blitman liked
school but he had to come to a de
cision about his boxing and he de
cided to give up his studies to en-,

career He made his debut as
professional against Eddie Coving

Then followed a long string OF

so. Blitman s first real test came
in his eighteenth bout when he met
DaVie Adelman. who at that time
had just been proclaimed flyweight
champion of Pennsylvania by the
boxing commission of that state.
Blitman knocked out Adclman in
the second round.
Al Corbctt of Cleveland stopped
Blitman s winning streak by hold
ing the Philadelphia boy to a draw
ON August "a, 1927, but on the fol
lowing October 4, Bltman knocked
out CGrbctt in o9c round.
Never Defeated
It was on December A., 1897, that
Blitman really started his rise to
fistic fame. johnny KiIhanc had
a promising young fcathcrweight in
Young Datto who was being groom
ed for title shot, but Blitman
swept Datto out of the picture by
stopping him in one round at
Youngstown, Ohio.
Five days later Blitman knocked
out Jose Lombardo aud then came
another crucial match, his thirty
second bout, with Pete Ncbo. Ten
thousand fans jammcd the Phila
dclphia arena to see the bout and
rs many more were turned away.
Blitman won the decision. and
few weeks later Ncbo held Cannon
ri to draw.
Blitman broke his hand in the
Ncbo bort and was laid up for scv-
oral months, but returned 60 the
ring on March 26, defeating John
ny F?rr Of Cleveland in 10 rounds
at Hollywood, Calf.
In less than two vcarrs Blitman
has fought his way up from the
ranks of the amateurs to the com
mandinp poSition among the fcath-
crweight contenders. Another bout,
with the title at stake, is inevitable
between Canzoneri and Blitman.
The smiling Hcbrcw-American boy
like his fellow townsman, Lew
Tender, is a southpaw. Blitman
has engaged in SO matches, won 80,
fought one draw and never has been
defeated. He has II knockouts to
his credit.

THROWING THE GANG
 OHElkROARD

Out in Illinois where the prairies beginning to hate politicians with the l"st they .Nercs. ill hating corn borers, the boys in the husking have spoken.
 In Chicago. where Bill Thompson the mayor tried to make America First sound synonymous with q wide open town, the angry citizenship has told him they are tired of war and want the city made safe for democ- racy.
 The Prairie state and the city on the lakes staged what might be termed q "colortul' election; or 1t might be termed scrambled politics Ia carte. Tn" result, as Bill Thomp- and Frank L. smith can testify, was quite un.Xpectrd." The electorate, il seems. is tired Of the entire gang. The revolt has wrecked the machine; Illinois and Chicago will never be the sarne.

THE HEAVY VOTE

New Britain turned out handsome ly yesterday and exercised its electoral perosative to an extent seldom seen in purely city affairs. When over eighty per cent Of the franchised voters turn out to regis ter their choice for mayor notable achievement is accomplished and We did just that yesterday. The heavy vote was. to say the least, a sur prise. It seemed that there was q general apathy beforehand and that the total number of ballots cast would be small. The campaign had been clean and the element of per sonalities. which often gets voters to the polls, was lacking. So was any well-defined platform, there being few promises for after election con- due, by either candidate.
 There were 4 large number Of auton ohiles at work, q factor no doubt, though there is 1ransporta- ton to the polls for every voter in the city readily available through the family car or that Of a friend. AS q matter of fact it seemed that there were more gas chariots at work than were necessary: they seemed in each others way.
 It Is reassuring that folks in this community are ready and willing to vote in such large numbers; it in dicates an active interest in local public affairs. We hope the interest will be maintained and that the generally aids in the con- duct of city business. The majority is usually right and anxious 10 serve we'll

STRAINED RELATIONS
 WITH JAPAN AND SOVIET
Trial Of Communists Recently Ar
 rested in Japan May Cause Trouble with Russia.

London, April Il @-Dispatches from Tokyo today indicated that strained relations between Japan and the soviet might result from the roundup and trial of commu- nists in Japan.
 The belief prevailed in the Jap anese capital that Moscow was deeply implicated in the alleged revolutionary movement. This mcve- ment was described by the Jap anese procurator general as more serious than the threat of armed force from without"
 It was not directly charged, how ever, that the soviet government financed the movement, although it was believed that the revolutionists were furnished with funds from some source in Moscow.
 Trials of the persons seized in the roundup have opened or about to open in four centers in Japan - Tokyo. Osaka. Fukuoka and Sap. poro. Originally more than 1000 persons were arrested but 1t was understood that the majority of these have been released.
 The RonOto, an extremist political organization. was ordered dissolved as well as the Japanese labor-coun- cil and Proletarian Youths league, Those at the head of the Ronoto denied cOOperatiOn with cnmmu. nists.

\ GOOD TREE-SAVING
 VERDICT

l The Board of Public Works did a
 good bit of work at its last meet ing when it voted to abide by the report Of the city engineer that a citizen be not allowed to cut down ! a tree in front of his premises on the ground that the tree is still serviceable and could be maintained in good condition by trimming it. There has been altogether too much cutting of trees in this city, some of them being removed, in the estimation of beholders, without due cause and merely upon the whim of property owners. If this decision means change of front by the city in granting permission to anyone asking it for the elimination of trees then it is a good sign of d civic awakening that has been long over- due.
 The trees in New Britain are among its finest asset. They provide shade in the summer add to the ap- pearance of the streets, and purify the air. It is useless to claim that one or two trees will make no diff ference: add up the ones and twos long enough and the result will be l denuded city.
 So long as a tree remains service able, and can be kept in good con- dition by trimming it, then the city should see to it that the tree re- mains.
