Smiling Marcel Hansenne Arrives in United States
BY OSCAR FRALEY

New York, Jan. 2l.--(UP)-Mar- eel Hansenne, French runner who resembles an undernourished Ty- rome Power, proved today within matter of hours after landing m America that he was plenty fast.
 The, George Washington, which brought Marcel from LeHavre, hardly had warped into the Hud- son docks when Hansenne had pur- chased a certain magazine which is barred from the mails. And he re- Sembled a champion pointer as he ferreted out the "Varga Girls"
 The clincher, however, to this young mans speed came when he figured out in a matter of seconds that in addition to his pamour sprint ability he would be able to set a new record the first time he stepped on the boards. Elementary, Watson, because they don't have board tracks in France but will recognize any French citizen rec ord that Marcel happens to chalk up while competing here.
 No, there's nothing slow about this fellow with the coal black hair, the aquiline nose and the fleet feet who holds the French 300 and l,500 meter records and bested Gunder Hagg with a 4:O8.2 mile in Sweden last September. He is different than Gunder, though, This guy smiles.
 ' But the smiles couldn't hide the fact, as Marcel stared out his hotel window at New Works towering skyscrapers, that like all us country kids the Frenchman was awed by the big buildings.
 Why, they're larger than the Eiffel Tower" he protested in a voluble rush of Parisian batter which stumped even the interpre- ter, let alone our first year high school French. Those buildings, they make you dizzy even to look at them,"
 Marcel finally tore himself away long enough to give the interpreter a fair shake and it came out that his heart beat is terrific 55 to 60. The track experts seemed to attach a great deal of importance to this, figuring that Leslie Mac. Mitchell's was 43, Gunder Hagg's was a terrific 46. The boys, how ever, finally decided to let Marcel stay.

Rubber went on a scoring spree in the last canto with Tommy Edmonds Lefty Farrar and Bob McDermott doing most of the scoring.
 Chase Nips Tool
 Bill Rrennan's Chase array and Jack Medford's Tool combine staged a nip and tuck game for three per- iods during which time the score was tied five different times, but a last period onslaught by Chase, spearheaded by Red Dayton, Thomaston importation, gave the Brennanmen a 52-34 triumph. Earl Lallier and Herbie French excelled for the losers.
