OUR local art circle suffered severe
~ loss in the death in July of Clara
Hill, a lifelong resident Of Washing
ton and q distinguished sculptor. Al
though in i'll health for some time,
her death came with shocking sud-
denness. Miss Hill came of an artistic
and musical family; her father was
not only head for many years Of the
engraving division Of the Bureau OF
Engraving and Printing but violin
ist member Of the old Georgetown
Orchestra. She had rare sensitiveness
of feeling and delicacy of touch. In
some Of her sculpture there was a
glimmer Of classic beauty and no
matter how small the work there was
in it a sense of bigness-real plastic
significance. Clara Hill was perhaps
more dreamer than worker, and for
this reason it is those things which
she tossed of lightly which show her
at her best-things done before the
fame fiickered-such as her diminu-
tive bronZes, her portrait sketches In
relief, her sketch models. In all Of
these her charming personality is
manifested and as works Of art they
justify her distinction.

n YEW YORK, December s.
M Forces opposing American
participation in the 1896
Olympic Games II they are
held in Germany gained new allies
today with IA college coaches and a
United States Senator voicing oppo-
sition.
In a statement addressed to the
Amateur Athletic Union and the
American Olympic Committee. the
coaches said:
TRUE sportsmanship becomes i'm
possible and sport is prostituted when
sport loses its independent and demo-
cratic character and becomes a po-
litical institution devoted to political
ends rather than the interests of
sport.
I'VE are convinced that this is what
happened in Nazi Germany and that
Nazi Germany is endeavoring to use
the eleventh Olympiad to serve the
necessities and interests of the Nazi
regime rather than the Olympic
ideals"
Among the signers were John J.
Magee of Bowdoin. Olympic coach
in 1924, 1928 and 1892; Chick Meehan,
foot ball coach at Manhattan, and
John Ryder, track and field coach at
Boston College.
Senator Wagner, Democrat, Of New
York, and native of Germany, made
public in Washington a telegram to
the committee on fair play in sports.
Americans should not participate
in the Olympic Games" he said. In
ternational sport becomes a travesty
upon the universal good will that 1t
is supposed to exemplify when the GEN.
ter of the festival is place where
good will Of man toward all men is

earned more than 100000 in purses
last season, and Cavalcade, 1884 Ken
lucky Derby winner
Besides Azucar and Top Row, those
returning for the classic will be Ladys-
man, second place winner; Time Sup
ply, which was third; Ted Clark, which

to the list were Sur Portland, great
4-year-old; Rosemont, Singing Wood
and Flamenco, an English bred thor
oughbred.

Galloping around the test course at
