LONDON CONFIDENT

LONDON, May 7-tE1-Govern-
ment circles in India we're repre-
sented here today as confident, not
withstanding widespread rioting
which has followed arrest OF Ma
hatma Gandhi. that they can con-
troll the situation there.
They realize the probability OF
further disturbances by mobs, al
legedly aroused b7 agents Of the
All-India national congress. but
apparently do no. expect any con-
certed revolutionary movement.
British business men IN India are
said to share this view. While they
approve of the internment of Gam
dhi, which many Of them advocated
for a long time prior 10 the gov
eminent action, they believe that
the government should refrain as
far as possible from emphasizing
forcible measures.

The pool is the outcome Of
lengthy labors by Assistant Ath-

who conducted a survey of pools
throughout the United States,
and, with Capt. Everett Yon, for

plans that resulted in the stu.

Of its athletic fee yearly in a

Within three years some
$4,000 had been invested by
