masters OF wit and melody Gilbert and
Sullivan, "The Mikado" has been ac-
claimed as their greatest triumph. The
richness Of its humor, the brilliancy of
its dialogue, its whistleable melodies and
the exquisite musicianship of its score,
all portends to its triumphant popu-
larity.
The Civic Light Opera Company has
been especially happy in the selection
of artists to give life, melody and
vivacity to both the theme and the
score by retaining the very best Gil
bertian delineators in this country. The

Robertson looks upon his own team as the favorite among the 49 nations competing, but he Is fully mindful of the powerful German. Japanese and Finnish threat ana of the brilliance of the British and Italian squads.
 From the United States view point everything looks grand right now" Robertson said. But every body's football team looks like a national champion in mid-Septem- Der.
 "Discounting my own enthusiasm and looking at the general picture on it's merits l know we have [. 2 fair chance or scoring plenty of firsts."
 Robertson is relying on three men as certain point-winners in the dashes. These are Ralph Met calfe, brilliant negro runner of Marquette; Eddie Tolan, of Detroit. another negro star, and George Sampson, Ohio State speedster, all of whom are entered in both the, 100 and 200 meter events.
 Five FavOritcs
 "Metzner of Germany, and Stoneley and Rampling of Great Britain, are standouts in the 400 meter contest" Robertson said "But it should go without saying that we expect spectacular running from big Ben Eastman of Stan ford, and my own Bill Carr of Penn. s
 "Possibly the most debatable event of the track games is the 800. With Eastman out, Hamp- son, the British scfoolrhaster, Doc Peltzer of Germany, Larva of Fin land, Johannsen of Norway. and Wilson of Canada, stack up as the principal rivals. For our team we are depending upon young Genuny of the Washington A. C., Horn bostel of Illinois, and Turner of Michigan, none of whom can be counted out until the race is over. This is the event which. promises most hair breadth finishes from first heat until the final"
 Robertson looks upon Thomas of England, in the 1.500 meter, Hill of the U. s. in the 5000, Jar venin and Peltona of Finland in the javelin, and Anderson of the U. s. in the discus as the leaders of their specialties.
 Spectacular
 Robertson believes the hammer throw will be a great show.
 Three of the greatest thrOweru in the world are competing this year. O'Callaghan of Ireland, Skold of Sweden, and Parohla of Finland are truly magnificent specimens, and I'm not so sure our boys can beat them.
 '"The hop, step and jump, one of the most fascinating events of the games, looks to-day to be the property of .Oda, the wiry Japa- ncse. Jarvenin of Sweden is the decathlon leader"
 Robertson gives the 50,00O meters walk to Hank Cieman of Toronto whom he regards as "by far the best in the field" "The way things sstack up to- day." Robertson said, T think it's reasonable to regard the United States team as slight favorite. Finland. Japan and Germany are, possibly, our closest rivals, and Italy, Britain and Sweden have top-notch teams. The competition. I believe, will be. so geen as to pro- vide the greatestof all the modern Olympics."
