This land of thousand lakes
and interminable Winters has
4 Il gathered together an Olympic
team, which, 1t believes, will
bring fame and honor to the Finnish
nation.
Finland'S hardy climate has produced
race Of athletes who have given a
good account of themselves in previous
Olympiads.
In the Paris Olympics in 1924. little
Finland won ten gold medals in the
light athletic events, compared 10 the
II medals won by the United STATES.
Finland thus feels it has position
and reputation to defend this year. The
whole Finnish troupe will consist OF
only rs to so persons. including train
ers and business managers, but each
man is picked athlete.
Where Its Hopes Lie.
Finland figures that her chances will
be best In the light athletic sports. as
was the case in previous Olympic con-
tests. and in wrestling. This latter sport
is very popular in this country and sew
eral of the best amateur wrestlers III
Europe are Firms. Swimming and box
ing viii also bring forward Finnish COM
r1etitors. but the home land does not pin
many hopes upon them.
Finland, summing all up, calculates
on five victories as quite certain--tne
iavelin throw, decathlon, 5000 and
10000 meter runs. the steeplec1ase and
believes herself capable of getting a
good placing in the Marathon, hop

the salient figure of Finland's team. His
own countrymen know very little OF ms
form this year. He won the FINN cross
country championship easily. In FIN
land there is no doubt he VIII win the
5000 and 10000 meters races.
Willie Ritola, who won two gold
medals in Paris, 1924. viii also take
part in Amsterdam, running the same
distances as Nurmi, 5000 and 10000
meters. He is expected TO give Nurmi
very hot fight on the long distances. A
third man on the same distances Is
Kalle Matilainen, who has developed a
tremendous sprint He should be GOOD
for f4:45 minutes ON 5000 meters and
81 minutes on 10000 meters.
Finland expects to win the javelin

more or less consistently In the past
Emo Pentilla Is F'inland's hope in this

statute launched by attorneys for
William Edward Hickman before
the State supreme court. Major
Walter X. fuller. president of the
California crime commission. today
began preparation of brief which
he will present to the high tribunal
within the next 10 days.
Major fuller, head of the move
ment which resulted in enactment
of the insanity law under which
Hickman was convicted of the MUIR
der of Marian Parker, was granted
permission to file the brief after
attorneys for the girl-slayer and
the state had conducted a. long
verbal battle before the supreme
court over the constitutionality OF
the statute.
Granting of permission to file the
brief virtually means that the high
court will not render a decision on
Hickman's plea against the con-
viction and death sentence for at
least 10 days,
Contending that 1t is illegal to
split up a criminal case by trying
the defendant first as to his guilt
and then as to his mental condi.

chief defense counsel, led the as

placement marine corps aviation unit,
consisting of two Officers and So
enlisted men, was ordered today to
Nicaragua. At the same time it
was announced that another big
transport plane would be flown to
Nicaragua by marines.
The two officers and So men
affected by sailing orders are mem
bers of observation squadron NO. 6,
stationed at Quantico, Va. They will
board the new airplane carrier
Saratoga, which is expected to leave
Hampton Roads Saturday for the
Pacific coast to join the battle fleet,
with Panama as their immediate
destination

C.. Byrd and Second Lieut.. S. r.
Williamson, is being dispatched to
Join the aviators who have been
active in the warfare against Sam
dinc'S forces, it was explained at
marine corps headquarters, solely for
replacement purposes, and not as
reinforcement. The constant change
in the personnel of the marines in
Nicaragua, it was said, makes the
transfer necessary.
The transport plane ordered to
Nicaragua will be the third in recent
months to attempt a flight via Miami,
Fla. It is a tri-motored Fokker
n1onoplane, and will take off Saturday
or soon thereafter from Anacosta
field here. Only one stop, at Miami,
is planned
The planes will be under the COM

been stationed at Quantico.

NAVY TO PROBE
SALES OF OIL
TO FOREIGNERS

WASHINGTON, Jan. "a up : An
investigation was ordered today by
Secretary Wilbur into the reports of
the inspector of naval petroleum re-
serves in California that the Homo
lulu Consolidated Oil company is
selling oil derived from the naval oil
reserves to the Royal Dutch Shell
company, a British corporation.
The secretary announced that he
had appointed Rear Admiral H. H.
Rousseau, head of the navy's oil serv-
ice, Rear Admiral John Halligan and
the judge advocate general, E. H
Campbell, as a board "to consider
the problems of such remedial legis-
lation as may be desirable and ne
cessary for the report to the appro-
pirate committees in congress"
The question involved, the secre-
tary added, is the disposition of the
oil produced in the naval reserve to
foreign corporations, apparently for
export to foreign countries.
Asked the significance of the move,
Secretary Wilbur said the Honolulu
company had a number of leases in
reserve No. 2 and that reserve No. 1
has been shut down almost entirely
"It is in that reserve that the Pan
American company had the large
lease" Wilbur said. "The production
of oil is continuous in reserve No.

ernment among other lessees includ-
