IN FIGHT TOSURv|VE.
Y. M. C. A.. Worker Reports
on Effects of Complex WhirI
of Modern Life.

The old fashioned boy who believed
in Santa Claus, had lofty ideals and
thrived on hard work, is having quite
a struggle to survive the complex swirl
of modern-day life, with its Sophisti-
cation and pleasures, according to
statements made today by Leonard w.
DeGast, general secretary-elect Of the
Y. M. C. A., at a conference of associa-
ton officials at the Central Y. M. c. A.
He reported to local officials that
these were the findings made by Y. M.
c. A. secretaries at their annual con-
vention in Columbus recently.
This does not mean that boys are
going to the dogs" he emphasized
but indicates that youth is adjusting
itself to changing times and is develop
ing a propensity for taking care of
itself
There is less contact now between
boys and their parents, Mr.. DeGast
said. recommending more comradship
between boys and their fathers.
Six trends" which the Y. M c. A,
has noted in boys, Mr.. DeGast said
are:
Il. Boys are a sophisticated crowd
They are a different article from those
of other days, but this is not ques
ton of better or worse.
-. Their time is competed for not
only by commercial amusements but
by host of organizations.
IS. Having a good time plays a
big part in all the life of today.
"a. Boys are up against a definite
and highly vocal opposition to Chris
tianity and the church-indeed to all
forms of idealism.
"5. The world is more complex and
many BOYS are confused as to their
place In the scheme of things.
IS. There is less contact of men
and boys than in the past generation"

WHY LLOYD HAHN
LOST BIG RACE
Otto Peltzer Thinks He Had
Too Much at Stake.

One reason why Lloyd Hahn, Sera
Martin and Helmut Koernig did not
win the golden medals at the Amster-
dam Olympics that. their supporters
expected them to gather in is the fact
that these men had too much at stake.
This is the opinion of Otto Peltzer,
holder of the worlds record for the
1,500-meter distance.
"In sporting circles the question is
much argued whether Hard or light
training is the better means of prepar-
ing for big contests" Peftzer observes.
81 have been criticized for training as
hard as ! do. But what of the Firms.
who proportionately dfEelop more and
better athletes than ahy other nation?
They know how TO train harder than
any nation.
"The question is, II my opinion, not
one Of the relative mtfits Of two meth
DDS of training, but Of sensible atti-
tude toward competition in sports |
don't believe that Martin, Lloyd Hahn
or Koernig really trained too hard.
They could not achieve victory at Am
sterdam because thsy were too high
favorites, because Ehey had hardly
anything to gain e3Rr their previous
records, but, on Vie contrary, had
much to lose"
Peltzer believes that the best way
TO gain the right psychological frame
of mind for achieving outstanding sue
cesses is to appear in contest after
contest, even if one knows in advance
that one will be beaten.
Referring to his own failure at Am
sterdam, PeitZer says the doctors told
him before the Olympics that he was
in no condition to win. But he en-
tered nevertheless in order to get his
nerves used to defeat.
"My recent experience has anew
convinced me that numerous compe-
titions do not interfere with the quail
ity of ones performances" Peltzer
concludes. within ten days l won
five international victories and Sc
cured two good seconds.
"If one can enter every contest I'M
concerned as to victory or defeat, nu-
merous competitions won't hurt. On
the other hand, if one must every time
go through the nervous suspense of
contests that are ADVERTISED in an ex-
aggerated manner as sensations, few
races a year can completely ruin
track athlete"

Completion of deal whereby
Charles Slug" Tolson, first baseman,
