Largely Matter Of Balance.

1.-THE main fun in skiing is moving
mile after mile up, down and
across slopes-sometimes slow-some-
times so, so or 80 miles an hour
weaving your way through snow
dressed forests of pine and oak-or
even the great redwoods that might
be 80 feet in diameter. Athletes who
have played many games will tell you
that no other sport touches skiing
when it comes to a continued thrill
"Bob-sledding is marvelous-but
only for the few Skating is great
Winter sport. But it is too often
limited to a rink. Skiing knows no
border or boundary. You can make
1t mile or 10 miles here at Yosemite,
and then, if you want the big thrill,
take q cross-country or cross-moun-
tain ski run, with moonlight dripping
through the big pines on the snow.
Skiing or skating" Schroll said,
us largely a matter of balance and
confidence. They are not hard to
learn, with little practice mean
when it comes to being good enough
10 have a lot of fun. Like any other
sport. the experts come up from youth.
But you don't have to be an expert
TO get your thrills from the ski. The
United States is just beginning to find
this out.

Have jungle Spring.

,OLORED boys will be more out
standing in the sprints, hurdles
and jumps than other events of track
and field for many years to come.
They are closer to primitive life than
Caucaslans and it is natural for
them to run and jump since ability to
90 those things was necessary for
preservation in the jungles. They still
retain natural lift and spring.
Although Owens is out of amateur
competition, colored boys likely will
dominate track performances this sea-
son. Albritton and Walker of Ohio
State should be the tops in high
jumping. John Woodruff of Pitts
ourgh and Archie Williams of Cali
1ornla are champions at the hal and
quarter mile. If Woodruff were to
work for full season in the l-nile
run, l believe he could establish a
new world record.
Kermit King of Kansas State
Teachers likely will be the best in the
broad Jump. He was second in the
N. c. A. A. meet last year and was
edged out by only small margin in
the Olympic trials. He is rs feet
consistently over and I think will be
improved this Spring. Edmund Burke
OF Marquette and Cruter of Colorado
are a couple of others who will be
among the leaders in the high lump.
IN the sprints, jumps and low hurdles
the Negroes may be supreme for a
long time.

Youngsters Take Up Sport.


VOU'D be surprised to know how
many kids are now going in for
this sport. Europe-meaning largely
Sweden and Norway, along with others
has had a big Jump on the United
States because 1t had so many who
started young. I was on skis at the
age Of 8. I now have a lot of
young pupils who are 4, 5 and 6 years
old. So have many other instructors.
I'm a few years you'll see the most
remarkable development in skiing and
skating in this country that any ma
ton has ever known. Ski conditions
give you bracing climate that means
hsalth-and they give you . changing
scenic thrill that no other sport can
even approach. It ID so incredibly
beautiful you can't believe 1t. I can
tell you now that all Europe has
nothing to match Yosemite. hear

Winter scenic miracles that would
make anything in Europe look dwarfed

MACK ROBINSON of Pasadena
T Junior College is one of the
best Negro track men in the country
but will not be eligible for the N. c.
A. A. meet. More powerful than
Owens, he has done the 10o-yard dash
IN 81; the 220 in less than 0:21: "a
feet in the broad jump and in the low
hurdles he is faster than any one
running today. With three years Of
competition ahead, Robinson possibly
may equal some of Owens marks"
with Owens through, whom do YOU
consider the outstanding sprinter of
the country?" was the next question
put to Cromwell.
In the l00-yard dash I would say
Sam Stoller of Michigan. He was
next to Owens and Draper in the COL
legiate field last year and unless some
unknown comes up this Spring, Stoller
should be able to head the list. For
the 220-yard sprint I would pick
George Anderson of California. A
knee injury kept him out year. but
1t was the sort Of an injury that Seldom
is permanent and the season of rest
gave Anderson an opportunity to ma
ture. He's good for 81 fiat or better
and that should be good enough this
year. OF course, there always is the
possibility of some new boy coming
along and that's what makes coaching
track so interesting.
with Owens missing from collegiate
competition the two sprints, low
hurdles and broad Jump events will be
wide open and perhaps We'll have
some new stars come up to whom we
can look to in the 1870 Olympics.
