The farewell attentions at the close
of an administration furnish gloomy
contrast to the glad coming in and the
brilliant train of events that run
thrillingly through the four years OF
a Presidents residence in the White
House, and the big luncheons being
given as farewells to Mrs. Hoover just
now, as well as the more stateiy
functions at the White House, have
the same train of sadness.

Hoover, and a charming gayety IN her
expressions in return. The gift OF an

photographer-one of the handsomest
she has ever had made.

OLYMPIC CH|EFTA|N
SEES PROFIT IN Sc
Riehm Expects Turnover of
$2,750,000 Sport Isle
Planned at Berlin.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
~ ERLIN, August 28.-Concen-
x tration of as much athletic
- activity as possible on a
sport island" in Western
Berlin is the plan of the commit
tee, headed by DR.. Carl Diehm,
which is in charge of the prelim-
mary work for the eleventh Olym-
piad in 1886.
The locale chosen is not an island
in the real sense, but rather an area
which surrounds the stadium and
stretches to the former troop parade
grounds in Doeberitz. On the latter
location the Olympic village, similar
to that at Los Angeles in 1882, will
be built.
Prior to his trip to Turkey, where
he is organizing sports along the lines
of the German program, DR.. Diehm
reviewed the work of his committee.
THIS group is calculating upon a
$2.750000 and expects to sell a
million to one and one-haf million
admission tickets. Prices will range
from S5 down to a dollar
Financially, DR.. Diehm said, the
games are expected to return a small
profit. Subsidy is expected from the
Hitler government and this will be
supplemented by national lottery,
sales of memorial postage stamps and
memorial phonCgraph records.
According TO plans, the swimming
pool in the present stadium will be
moved to enable construction of seats,
which will bring the stadium's capacity
to $4,000 spectators. Track and field
events will be held in the stadium
TINE symbol of the 1896 Olympic
games will be a bell bearing the
inscription Il call the youth of
the world"
Anxious to begin world propaganda
work for the first at home" Olympics.
The Jealous committee had to be warned
by the government against firing all
its publicity ammunition too early. AS
the result all publicity for the time
being will pass under the expert eye
of DR.. Joseph Goebbels. Chancellor
Hitler's minister for propaganda.
The recent appearances in Germany
of the all-star American track team
increased the nations already great
interest in athletics One of the most
urgent things confronting Germany
now is to find youngsters to take the
place Of her fastfading veterans.

From my memory of these leering

box office when the cash was being
counted out. They always felt that

~ HICAGO, August 28-Three
notable golf names stand out
as over a hundred of the
leading woman stars begin
their battle at Exmoor.
These three names are Virginia Van
VIE, defending champion; Enid Wilson,
British champion, and Helen Hicks,
who won the title in 1881 and who has
gathered in seven tournaments in a
row this Summer.
Any one from this dashing
trio might be stopped at any
given point by some fast-moving
opponent, but when the curtain
falls this week one of the three
mentioned should be wearing the
crown.
In the first place it isn't going to be
any easy job qualifying. Over three
fourths of the field from every section
& the country will fall by the wayslde
before the pencil is laid aside and
match play begins.
Miss Hicks ran into this misfortune
a year ago, but the long-hitting Long
Island girl is hitting the ball too well
to have any such phantom now fol-
lowing her around the course.
In the last day or so Miss Van VIE
has turned in 73 and Miss Hicks has
had a rs, which outlines the fast pace
the leaders are setting.
Miss Wilson, the English in
Udder, also is hitting the ball up
to her sound, consistent form, in
dicdting plenty of trouble before
she is beaten in the last cham
pionShip she eTpectS to enter.
Miss Wilson has won the British title
three times in row, but has never been
able to crash through on this side OF
the famous water hazard known as the
Atlantic
THE three leaders already men
toned have been in hard training
for several weeks.
They realize the type of golf needed
to get by such opponents as Mrs. Opal
Hill Miss Charlotte Glutting, Lucille
Robinson, Jane Brooks, Bernice Wall,
Marion Hollins, Maureen Orcutt. Fran
ces Williams. Aniela Gorczyca, the
Southern star; Peggy WattleS and Is
or 20 others one might mention.
One Of the most interesting entries in
the tournament is Mary K. Browne.
former tennis star Miss Browne is the
greatest tennis-golf combination in the
tournament, a good golfer and a fine
competitor who rarely beats herself,
which is one of the more comon golf
ing faults.
1t also will be interesting to see
Miss Marion HollinS in battle
again as she happens to be an
all-ar0und star and a dominant
personality in the development
of wOmen's golf.
The average of play has been lifted
to amazing degrees In the last few
years. There was time when 80 was
supposed to be the high spot-the win
ming mark.
Now they think nothing Of 76s and
IT'S. Miss Hicks has been as low as 10
and 70, Miss Van VIE around 73, and
Enid Wilson has been in the low 70s
on several occasions.
4 ND make no mistake in thinking
~ that these woman stars can't bat
tie to the final putt. One statis-
tician has figured out the following in
teresting angle:
"Keenest competition in Ameri-
cGn golf is that OF the Women's
National Amateur championship,
according to the United States
Colt Association statistics for the
