BABE DIDRICKSON, fONE-CIRL TRACK
 TEAM HAS U. s. GOLF TITLE EYED
Female !" Texas TorandO" Fully Confident of OIynl- pic Showing - Dutch and German Girls Will Settle High Jump
By MARY ALICE PARENT United Press Special Corre-
 suOndeukl

spOn0ent)
 Los Angeles. Cal, July 27-(UP) Its the old case of school teach- CT versus city hall when 1t comes to fighting it out for supremacy in the girls olympic high jumping this year.
 The fight appears. to be between two hard-workfng girls, Caroline Gisolf of Holland. school teacher, and Helma Noette of Germany, city hall worker.
 -Four years ago the two contin- ental lassies made their names known at Amsterdam, Caroline with second place and Helma with sixth. This year--well- "I think Caroline Gisolf will be first" said her friend, Helma. "As for second place. I don't think, only hope"
 But according to Caroline, T haven't been able to train as well as l could. A strained leg muscle keeps me from jumping" Like Athletics
 Tall and blonde, Caroline is 6 Wagnerian Brunhilde and Helma a Sieg1inde. But only in their high jumping, more hobby than a vo- c8LlOu, 0O they IlC lHtO tuS dtHlctlc pattern of the Valkyries. In their regular occupations Brunhilde teaches school In the Hague and Sieglinde works in the city hall of Dusseldorf.
 Babe Didrickson, confident Dal- las, Texas, athlete. who takes her broad jumping along with javelin throwing and hurdling races, doesn't think anyone ought to overlook the American team-es- pecially herself. She jumps like a man and expects to do pretty well.
 'I guess I just have the natural ability to take up Q lot of sports. Anything I think I'll like, my coach, M. J. McC0mbs, teaches me how to do. After this years Olym. pics, I'm going to go after tine na- tiOnal open golf championship" Her golf experience is a matter of months, not years.
 "All my--life I've been tom- boy. I'm through high school now and I'd like. to go to college here this winter and take physical edu- cation. But Isdon't know"

FLYNN AND FEARY
 STANDOUT BOXERS E SAYS SPIKE WEBB
BY "SPIKE'' WEBB Coach, U. S. Olympic Boxing Team VVyiffen fOP the limited PrpSs

Written for the United Press
 Olympic Village, Los Angeles, July 27.-(UP)-The American Olympic boxing team, the fourth and best of such squads that I have coached, to-day appears likely, to be formidable outfit to win for the first time one of the vaunt- ed championships.
 The two best boxers on the IAmerican team are Ed Flynn, A. A. U. welterweight titleholder from Loyola university of the south, New Orleans and Fred Feary, A. A. U. heavyweight champion from Stockton, Calf. They should take the measure of any of their op- ponents.
 So far, all the boxers have been resting from the strenuous trials, at San Francisco. I have had them merely doing road work and calis- thenics. We increased the amount of this work to-day.
 Doylass Hill, Tulane university heavyweight and alternate on the team, has a badly sprained thumb and will be unable to don the gloves for few days.

 Final Standing
The Waterbury Democrat., 1932-07-27

A missed shot, or rather an in- accurate shot, often can be att tributed to improper functioning of the left foot. <
 Many times l nave seen players CTS heel still off the ground and the body turned away from the objec- tive. If one swings in this manner the arms cannot swing freely and hitting power is blocked by the left side.
 Since the backswing is made by the body turning away from the ball 1t Is only natural that the body be turned toward the ball as the downswing is started. This is easily accomplished if the heel is replaced first.

Boy Soprano

When word got around recently
that the sponsors of the "Old
Singin' Master" program on Sun
day nights (NB.C.-WJZ network
were looking for a boy soprano
to guest-star Harry Frankeps va
cation from the role of Glen
Cutler, the old singing teacher,
dozens of fond mamas imme-
diately got busy on the telephone.
The program directors were
flooded with offers to permit
young Donald to tear himself
away from the choir long enough
to sing Cfor a consideration on
the radio or for young Cuthbert
to forsake singing lessons and
show the radio audience how it
should be done. One doting
parent wrote in about her daugh-
ter, who, she said, wasn't exactly
a boy soprano, but had a sWeeter
voice than any boy.
The letters are still coming in
even though Harry Frankel is
back on the program and the
boy soprano finally chosen has
sung his songs and vanished into
the shadows of the Choir7stall
weeks ago.
