What These Games Mean.

4 S FAR as one can locate a given
= date. these Olympic games start
ed in Greece about 1850 BIC They
we're stopped, and revived again in
776 BIC, so one way or another, with
several lapses, they have hung on for
more than 5000 years.
No flop is going to run that long,
even with few extended intermis-
sicns. There has been nothing per-
feet about running or handling the
games-any more than you will find
perfection in the way rulers or what
not have been trying to run the world.
The little flare-up of 1914-18 wasn't
the result of any profound philosophy
or exalted wisdom. Neither was the
political and economic aftermath.
A nation needs healthy sport
for its young and its old beyond
all measuring. The right sort of
sport means spirit, health and
recreation.
The Olympic games take in va
riety of games played by leading ma
tions. They represent the pick of every
country-certainly the pick of this
country,

THE SPORTTIGHT
U. S. Spends 100000 on Boxing Bout,
Shirks Duty Toward Its Olympic Team.
By GRANTLAND RICE.

Certain instances are brought up
to bear out this point.
This is the purest form of bunk
that any one could invent. There
never have been one-tenth as many
pointed barbs thrown around Olym-
pic contests as there have been in
most of our colleges and universities
over foot ball-Princeton and Har-
ward. Penn and Princeton, Cornell
and Syracuse, Alabama and Auburn.
etc. But that didn't stop foot ball or
keep it from being great sport.
There was the best sort of
international feeling at Los An
geles. Athletes who make the
games practically always are on
friendly terms with their rivals.
I've seen them hustle around to
get better equipment for some
opponent who had q chance to
win.
You'll never see seeds Of war plant
ed around an Olympic village. where
competitors from so or more nations
live together for three or four weeks
In the middle of that many politicians

n YEW YORK, July 9.-The man
M who holds the recognized world
v record for the loo-yard dash.
\ fair haired Frank Wykof Of
Carpinteria, Calf, says he will run
his last amateur race in America here
Saturday.
Wykoff, a member Of the 1928
United States Olympic team, now
manual training teacher at Carpin-
terra High School, will become the
schools head coach next Autumn, and
thus end his amateur career. He is
here preparing for the final Olympic
trials at the Randalls Island Stadium.
Although he is only 81, Wykof vir-
tually is forgotten in the parade of
younger and faster stars. Modest and
smiling he does not seem to mind.
Realizes His Task.
"THEY pay off on what you san do
right now; not what you could
do. And the best I've done for the 100
meters in lon gtime is los" he said.
The experts figure he will have TO
do better than that to get into the
finals of Saturdays tryouts.
Wykoff's world record of 9.4, made
in 1880, stands alone in the books, al
though Ohio States great Negro
speedster, Jesse Owens, equaled that
mark last year. Owens 94 has been
accepted as an American record and
submitted to the International ANA
teur Athletic Federation, which has
not yet passed upon it.
Several dozen other competitors
worked out in the Randalls Island
Stadium for the first time yesterday
The runners were unanimous in prais-
ing the width, firmness and spring of
the cinder path snd its sweeping

Olympic Expenses.

TT is inconceivable that country
which spent more than 100000
to see Joe Louis hammer down
L Max Baer in less than II min
utes isn't going to take care OF its
Olvmpic athletes at one-third the
above cost.
These kids-boy or girl-and most
Of them are kids-come from every
section of the United States-South,
East, North and West. Most OF them
have had their eyes and hearts fixed
on this Olympic goal for several
wears. They have trained and worked
hard enough to give the United
States the greatest Olympic squad
that any nation ever knew. They have
smashed records from California to
Princeton, from Milwaukee to New
Orleans.
They represent the top of train
ing, discipline, decent living and
sporting ideals. The survivors will be
picked from thousands who tried and
failed.
The spirit back of this ath-
letic training has been fine
thing in an cge that has been
none too gentle on the younger
generation. 1t goes far beyond
the few hundred who will make
the team to compete against
more than 50 nations Of the
world.
If this country-especially New
York-can spend close to $4,000, 900
on the clashes Of Louis, Carnera,
Baer and Schmeling and can't raise
less than 100000 to send the pick
of its younger athletes into Olympic
competition, there must be something
badly decayed in our national sport.
