BY John LARDNER.

N EW 1Ofth, July 1f'--4t o Sohi-
nj forting to reflect that Jesse
" Owens, the outstanding star of
4 our Olympic track team, has
managed to get his troubles all
Strengthened out and printed on the
record before taking of for Europe and
the big Berlin meet.
Jesse is a professional athlete, Of
course, by every standard OF defini-
tion, but fortunately his little lapses
from Simon purity have been publi-
cized and accounted for and white
washed so thoroughly that there Is no
danger of surprise attack from rival
sources during or after the Olympic
games.
In other words, we know all there is
to know about the frailties of the
chocolate comet. If Jesse is an anna
teur now, he'll always be an amateur.
I think this Is an intelligent
way Of handling the problem OF
a star athlete who has lived on
his athletic reputation for sew
eral years.
Al lllC o1JAlPAC OAAANAoAo va ASAS @AA~A
handled Jim Thorpe in the same way
If they had permitted Jim to be
exposed and exonerated and dry
cleaned before the Olympic games at
Stockholm-they could have fore
stalled the very embarrassing situation
which arose when Jim was revealed
as a pro and forced to give his cups,
medals and miscellaneous crockery
back to the King OF Sweden.
1t Was Common Sense to Jim.
Inn was our outstanding athlete that
" year, just as Jesse owens Is the
class of our Berlin delegation. The
big Sac and Fox Injun showed Stock
holm some things it never before had
seen. and everybody was happy-until
the blowoff came. To the sorrow OF
our own Nation and the controlled de-
light of several others, Jim was found
guilty of professionalism. As matter
of fact. he'd never bothered much to
conceal it. Professionalism was Just
plain common sense to Jim.
The gent who turned Jim in, in line
of newspaper duty. was Francis AL
bertanti, then a sports editor and now
an expert drum beater for the boxing
promotions Of Uncle Mike Jacobs
I'm no whistle blower. and 1 hated
to see Jim give back those medals. y
explains Francis, but I would GER
tainly have been a rotten newspaper
man if I hadn't used the story"
Though the King of Sweden had
no more use for the medals than Jim
did, he took them back gracefully and
presented them elsewhere.
The embarrassment OF Amer
ican Olympic officials was enor-
mous-considerab bly, greater than
Jim's.
Jim went on to further professional
engagements. while the officials went
home vowing that never again would
they permit themselves to be made
suckers Of in so pronounced fashion.
You can use your own judgment as
to how we'll they kept the vow.
At least they haven't repeated the
same mistake. Along about the time
Jesse Owens began to shape up as
brilliant Olympic material there we're
repercussions of all kinds about his
amateur standing. These came to a
head when Gov. Davey of Ohio, not
feeling particularly affectionate toward
his States university. employed young
Jesse as the goat-in-chief in an ironic
statement about Buckeye athletes on
the government pay roll.

PAUL NUM- IN
ANOTHER GREAT PICTURE

The memory of Louis Pasteur de-
serves especial honor not only because
lof the mans accomplishments, but be-
cause of his character"
To that worried, prosecuted and
Iridiculed French chemist mankind is
indebted for 20 additional years in the
span of life He discovered that germs
caused rather than were caused by,
disease; he preached, and was exiled
from Paris because of it, the necessity
lof sterilizing hands and instruments in
surgical work, and to him the great DR..
Liste acknowledged his indebtedness:
he discovered the cause and cure Of
anthrax and hydrophobia, he taught
how to 'Pasteurize' milk and thus make
it safe for babies.
Medical science owes much to him,
but with it all he remained a devout,
God fearing, simple man, who sought
nothing for himself except the right to
work for humanity. The lesson of his
life is one of simplicity and faith, in
domitable courage and determination
There have been too few such men. Il
is highly fitting that Libby joins
with the rest of the world in paying
tribute to Louis Pasteur." See Paul
Mum in The Story Of Louis Pasteur,
at the Kootenai Theatre

MEETING TONIGHT
AT COURT HOUSE
COOPERATIVE PLAN DEALING
WITH SPONGE INDUSTRY
TO BE DISCUSSED

w. L. Wilson, industrial con-
sultant for the WPA in Florida
said today he anticipates a large
assemblage tonight in the court
room of the county court house
when he meets with the sponge
interests to discuss the cooperative
idea with sponge fishermen of
Key West.
This plan has been under con-
sideration for a long time and it
is believed the time has arrived
when its feasibility can be shown
and it's effectiveness as a protec-
ton for the one who takes the
sponges from the sea and also the
buyer and distributor, can be
easily and forcefully demon
strated.
1t is for the purpose of going
into every detail of the industry
and its relative values to all con-
cerned that the meeting has been
called for this evening and it is
expected that by 1880 o'clock
tire will be a large crowd present.
