BOSTON, April 1. U.P) = Even
though this is April 1st, I'm not
fooling when I say it wasn't the
glitter of gold that lured me into
the professional ranks.
1t was the National A.A.U. they
FORCED me to turn pro.
They just didn't want me to be
an amateur. I don't know why.
They certainly need swimmers in
this country. They haven't got any
more.
If that mess hadn't happened
last summer, never would have
turned pro. l didn't have to. After
all, I could have always made
money appearing in motion pic
lures and working in my husbands
band.
Now. about that episode on the
boat. Well, if I had had to go
through it again, I would do the
very same thing all over-except
that 1 wouldn't worry this time.
Frankly, 1 don't think 1 did
anything wrong. After all, nobody
asked me how I had been win
ming national championships for
the past seven years. I had my
own system-after a long training
siege, I would drink champagne
and smoke cigarettes to relax. An
athlete has to relax or go stale.
The mistake I made-if you
can call 1t a mistake-was doing
what I did in front of Avery
Brundage, then president of the
A.A.U.
I think Brundage got the idea
from Hitler that everybody should
do the same thing at the same
time. He must have thought the
boat was a concentration camp.
AS a matter of fact, there should
Mt have been any training at all
on the boat except, perhaps, a lit
tie limbering UP.

Everybody is asked to come to the Catholic Laymen's Outdoor Forum which is to be held tonight at 7:45 o'clock on the Green. There David Goldstein of Boston will deliver his famous address on The Credentials of the Catholic Church. He will be accompanied by Marius Risley of Notre Dame University. Arrange mentS have been completed by the Sheridan Council No. 24 of this city for reception to these notable lay men.
 Unique Occasion
 This is considered to be unique occasion, for not since the thir- teenth century days had the voice of the Catholic laity been heard out on the highways and byways pro- claiming the teachings of the Cath olic Church. MT. Goldstein and MT. Risley, who are members of the Third Order of Saint Francis, say that it was the founder of the Fan ciscan Order who, 700 years ago, went out on the streets of Italy with bell to call the people around him while he, St. Francis, one of the greatest lay apostles of religious truth, preached the love of Christ and the love of fellow man, aye even love of the beasts as the crea- lures of God. These Catholic cam paigners cherish the experience of having spoken to street gatherings all along the 700 mile Fl Camino Real-the Kings Highway-in Cal ifornia, over which Fra Junipero Serra, the Father of California and his fellow Franciscans walked when they laid out the way, builded the great missions, and converted the Indians.
