have their opinions. as well rs
their bodies, diligently looked after.

youths will be housed in the Olympian
village and assigned to running er-

team with one Of the cottages that
housed the athletes when the games
were held In Los Angeles.

up on the grounds as curiosity. A

like cardboard, 1t looks comical and
pathetic by the side Of the commodi-
Gus and substantial German buildings.
