AAU's glass sniffers.
The AAU, which might mean Alcohol Amt
Understood, is setting itself up as chapter of the
WCTU and as such seems to be missing the point
in its reason for existence, which should be to
weed the amateurs from the professionals, super
wise amateur athletics and retain sense of bal
while doing it.
1t might be advisable to point out to pompous
AAU officials that prohibition repealed several
years ago, thus making it 100 per cent legal for
22-year-od Joyce McCrae to cool off with glass
of beer. For that crime Miss McCrae of the San
Francisco Crystal Plunge Club was withdrawn
from further competition in the womens outdoor
swimming and diving championships at the re-
quest of AAU officials at Shakan1ak State Park,
