American participation in the games.
 1. A reason in sports, not poli- tics, must support any non-partici- pating movement. And the Inter- national Olympic committee has found no such reason. Acceptance does not indorse policies of any government.
 2. The Olympics are not Ger man, but International, being con- trolled by I. O. c. rules.
 8. Alleged charges of discrimina- ton in selection of Germany's team are not supported by evidence.
 4. Interests of American athletics chief cause is to be upheld. Athletes should not be denied a chance tc compete for Olympic laurels.
 Committee Meets Soon
 The Olympic Committee is ex- pected to hold a meeting in this city later this month, chiefly tc discuss further plans for partici- patton. There is a slight possibility that the subject of whether Amer ica should compete may be brought up on the meeting floor. In that case, the committee is expected tt re-affirm its acceptance.
 The committee on Fair play 1T sports, formed to keep America out of the games, presents the follow. ing points in a pamphlet, "Pre. serve the Olympic Ideal::"
 1 German sports and Olympic preparations are controlled by thu Nazi government, and perforce th' Olympics become political matter
 2. Germany violates the Olym pic code, which states that race religion and creed must be kep out of the games and recognize equality of all in sports.
 3. Duplicity has characterized Nazi pledges and deeds.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1935-12-06

Principal business at the meet ing will be consideration Of sug- gestions for rule changes, but there is a possibility that the body may be asked to make resolution on whether this country should send a team to the Berlin Olympics.
 The A. A. U., which governs much of American amateur sport, is pow less to decide whether to withdraw an acceptance which this country made to an invitation from Ger many on Sept. g, 1884, There is nothing to prevent the A. A. U., however, from going on record against the games.
 The original invitation was &C., cepted by the American Olympic Committee, which is in charge of selecting team and raising funds to cover it's expenses.
 Wide Protests Voiced
 Since the invitation was accepted, various organizations and individ- uals have been campaigning to keep America out of the games on the grounds that there is religious prejudice in Germany.
 Judge Jeremiah T. Mahoney, president of the A. A. U., has vio- lently denounced American par ticipation. Throughout New York City and in other parts Of the country, organizations have been formed to "keep the Olympics from Germany" Many athletes and ln- terested groups of men have de- nounced these attempts looking to non-participation of this country as political moves and unsportsman- like attitudes.
 The American Olympic commit- tee, headed by Avery Brundage, is proceeding with plans for sending a team abroad despite the contro- versy. Tryouts already have been held for places on the Winter Olym- pic team which will participate in Germany in February and reserva- tions have been made for an entire liner to take the summer team abroad.
 Counter Drive Started
 The committee, composed of 70 Organizations, claims that its en- tire membership favors sending a team abroad. Supporting its views, tho committee recently issued a penphlet entitled "Fair Play for American Athletes" This was in- tended to counteract the attacks made by organizations opposing

 Bills first job was that of clerk in the H. w. Lake Drug store. His early ambition was to become a member of the United States regular army, but he never fulfilled that am- bition. He was a commits stoned officer, however, in the Connecticut National Guard, resigning after 13 years -.
