OLYMPIC GAMES
 MONEY ASSURED
No "Last Minute Scram. ble" For F un ds;
 $325,000 Needed

New York, Feb. 2.-(Up)-The Olympic games are more than Q year away, but plans for financing them are well underway and of- ficials do not look for the last minute scramble for money that accompanied sending the 1886 team to Germany, 1t was learned today. About $326 900 will be needed to send e full squad of 385 to Finland for the summer games. The Amer ican Olympic committee hopes to raise the money without frantic ape peals to private sources on the eve of the teams departure.
 The committee expects the prob. lem of fund raising to be easier be- cause the games are to be held in Q country not involved in current racial or political controversies and because 0 long-range financing pro. gram has been funetioning effec- lively since shortly after the io36 games.
 It was pointed out, however, that there will be no relaxation from the job of raising funds until q full representation at Helsingfors Is guaranteed.
 The committee expects the U. 6. to be represented In each of the l6 sports on the program. Each individual committee will contri- bute funds raised through It's par ticular tryout meets.
