By HENRY McLEMORE United Press Staff Correspondent

Daytona Beach, Fla, Feb. 10.- CUP)-If my eyes and ears are not LID to some deceit tand I don't see why they should bel have been like a father to them for years) the game of questions and answers has become tremendously popular of late.
 Dial a radio and professor some thing other is wanting to know who invented fire plugs and what is the habitat of the boW-legged ar madillo. Pick up paper or maga- zine and you're sure to find a de- partment where the readers are glv- en questions to answer.
 Always one to keep his column abreast of the times, have decided to inaugurate a sports quiz. Every so often I will run a series of ques- tions and all my readers who can read are invited to see how many Of them they can answer. Those who can't read-well, they're just lucky, that's all.
 Be sure and mail in your answers not to me, of course, because l already know the answers and would be bored to death by the correct ones and annoyed by the incorrect ones. There will be prizes for one and all, just as soon as I am able to round up a rich sucker willing to fall for such an enterprise.
 I hope to make first prize the Island of Madagascar, but that will depend largely on how the citizens of that island feel about change. of ownership. Right now-and I tell you conf1dentially-they're not in favor of the plan.
 The rules of the contest are sim pie. Almost as simple as the ques- tions, in fact. All answers must be written on both sides of the paper Don't write legibly Don't use ink Only relatives or persons who are employed by my relatives are eligi- ble. In case of a tie-but never mind that. Because if there's a tie

CHINA FAILS TO GAIN SUPPORT
 ON 0LYMPICS
Asks Cancellation of l94O Games in Japan-Fin-
 land Agrees

London, Feb. 10.-(UP)-China's s plea to other nations for a boycott of the 1940 Olympic games in Japan fell on deaf earns in most European countries, today. Only Finland and Czechoslovakia indicated sympathy with the movement.
 In Helsingfors, the United Press Correspondent reported that general sentiment was for cancellation of the games although the Finnish Olympic committee had not yet dis cussed the situation. Dr. Joseph Gruss, chairman of the Czech Olym- pic committee, said at Prague that his country probably would lend support. It is recalled that Fin land waged an unsuccessful cam paign for the 1940 games.
 Finland has suggested that in the future the games be cancelled when the host nation is at war.
 While few authoritative state ments can be made before the meet ing of the International Olympic committee in Cairo, Egypt in March, Italian spokesmen saw no reason for boycotting the games since Italy enjoys cultural and athletic rela- tions with Japan. and especially since Italian athletes are forging ahead and expected to improve upon their 1886 showing in Berlin.
 Most nations adopted a wait and see" attitude. A leader in the Brit ish Olympic organization pointed out that "any boycott talk at pres ent seems little previous since in- vitations for the games have not even been sent out yet" Japan probably will not send invitations until after the Cairo meeting.
 Count Henri De Baillet-Latour, president of the International Olym- pic committee who was reached in Brussels, told the United Press that the Olympics are beyond any poli- tical or religious issues and beyond war;" and that the Tokio Olympics must take place." He added that the committee intended shortly to examine Finland's proposal to can- eel the games.
 Germany is one of the least likely to adhere to the Chinese boycott re- quest, although no authoritative statement is likely until Dr. Karl Diem, president of the German Olympic committee, states the Nazi attitude at Cairo. Estonia and Latvia definitely are committed to participate in the 1940 games. A Polish Olympic official told the United Press that "the Chinese re- quest" is out of the question and Poland is determined to continue preparations for Tokio.'
 The French Olympic committee has been studying Finland's pro- posal to cancel the games when scheduled in a nation at war but only with the understanding that such a rule would become effective after 1940.
 Denmark officials said their coun- try would abide by the decision made by the international commit tee, and until then i've take no sides"

The Ricciuti coached Pals scored sensational 21-19 upset ocer the league leading Wolves, to dead- lock top honors at the " hut last night. The Wolves pre-game favor ties fell before 8 hard fighting and fast passing Pal quintet. The Ric- ciuti men lead all the way. Captain Pete Toilette personally conducted his charges by scoring four con- secutive hoops to net himself top scoring honors with points. The Pals were in the van 12-7 at the intermiSSion but the Wolves pulled within 8 point of tieing it with con- secutive hoops by Haiday and Val eshi. The Pals pushed forward with two pointers by Gunshanan, Rinaldi and Benson while the Redmen re- countered with Haiday scoring 4 points and Valeshi two to trail 18- r at the end of the 3rd canto. The last quarter was nip and tuck af- fair with the Pals taking the lead with hoop by Gunshanan and a free throw by Benson giving them total of q points and game al- though Eschenko made good a foul shot.

CROSBY GROWS COLD IN LAST
 HALF OF CAME
Borough Array "In" As Valley Champions After
 5O=35 Victory
(BY THE YOUNG GRAD

(RY I1E xOONO UA~AOJ
 The Old Grad must have his cry- ing towel waving overtime today after the genuine pasting the un- defeated Naugatuck High quintet handed Crosby last evening in the Turkish Bath-like Wilby gym where the biggest crowd of the season saw the Pete Foleyless sharpshooters from the borough stage a second half rally to win, 50 to 35, for their 18th consecutive victory and their ninth Naugatuck Valley League triumph.
 Czaplicki Excels
 Gene Czaplicki, keyman of the garnet and grey who will not be graduated for another year, proved to the crowd that when selections for the all-state team are made he must not be overlooked. The Po- fish lad held the elongated 'Pinky' Woods to lone field goal, took the ball time and time again off the baskets to start his team on the of- fense and dribbled about like a pro eager to wane away the last few minutes of the contest when his club held a commanding lead. He also contributed 12 timely points to the cause, four field goals and an equal number of complimentary awards called by Referee Phil Cas- man of New Haven who did mighty swell job.
 First Half Exciting The first half found the teams evenly matched, but for the benefit of the Crosby followers let's forget the tragic last half. The first pe- riod saw the Rubber Towners take a 14-9 lead which was cut to 23-21 at intermiSsion thanks to some keen bombarding of the irons by long John Brady whose eyesight is not the best in the world.
 Ray Foley, substituting as coach for his injured dad, gave the Nau- gatuck cageSterS pep talk during the half similar to the ones ne re- ceived while performing at Catholic University not too many years past. What he emphasized seemed to turn the trick, for the third quarter saw the visitors put on the steam and go to town" while Crosby saw only their field goals drop in.
 Very Convincing Naugatuck'S superior play ill the second half showed decisively why the sting of defeat has yet to be tasted and why they should go a long way in the state tournament next month. Their play the last two quarters revived memories of the days when Johnny White, Ed die Butkus, Norman Schaeffer, Bubbles Balinsky, Alex Samborsh and others made the F'oleymen the talk of the state.
 From the free throw line Crosby looked like grammar school array at practice session making but five of IS tries count while Naugatuck capitalized in this department sink ing dozen of IT tries. Tiger Lyons missed four free tries, Holmes one, Brady two, Day one and Woods two.
