Olympic Aces Wind Up
Training for Official

By the Assoeioisd Press

LONDON. July 28.-Unbothered
by political undercurrents, thou
sands of athletes wound up meticu-
lous training today and got set up
for tomorrow's official opening Of
the olympic games.
The first days program will be
devoted to ceremony, presided over
by King George. The competitors
get down to business Friday.
But political complications arose
to cast a shadow, however small
over the greatest of sports spec
tacles.
Romania disclosed it would not
compete and the Bulgarian rep
resental.ves have failed to arrive.
Committee Seats Refused.
Romania's sports leaders decided
to forego the games because, they
said, the Olympic Organizing Com
mittee failed to accede to Russian
and East European requests for
seats on the committee.
An Italian Communist newspaper
man, Tomasso Giglio, was barred
from entry into England. This
created a mild furore.
But most of the athletes failed
to be disturbed by politics and in
stead spent their worries on the
marks showing up In rehearsals.
Americas track stars reached
the climax Of their training yester-
day.

This is the time of year for the

the average player can also get
home in two, while in winter. spring
