BY ROBERT X. WALSH

Many an American boy found
himself in unflattering shape
today in an after-the-ball-is-
over atmosphere surrounding a
sports VS.. juvenile delinquency
match at the White House.
President Eisenhower, Vice
President Nixon and some 80
luncheon guests powerful in
sports and physical education
spared with the problem for
two hours yesterday. The first
round encounter left the matter
in a no-decision stage. Faster
and better co-ordinated action
was promised as the next step.
There was enough give and
take to prompt the President to
indicate that American youth
in general will be the losers un-
less they get in and pitch-or
run or row or tee of, as the
case may be.
More Participants Urged
The object Of the assemblage,
unique in White House If not
athletic annals. was to apply a
spur to some program for max
ing sports participants instead
of spectators out of more young
sters and thus turn them from
possible psychological. soft or
shiftless paths that lead to de-
linouency.
The State Dining Room lunch
con featuring veal outlet covered
a much more strenuous menu of
sports discussion. For post-pran-
dial talk on the north portico of
the White House, the guests told
reporters that the supply Of ideas
and suggestions was more than
enough to fill a football skull
practice session or a hot stove
league discussion.
The seriousness of the situa.
tion was pointed up by a report
from DR.. Hans Kraus of New
York University that tests have
shown American children are
far inferior in physical fitness tc
Europeans of the same age.
These physical fitness tests in
volved 10000 youngsters, in
cluding 1900 Americans. DR.
Kraus said, and whereas 56 pei
cent of the American children
failed. only 7 per cent of the
Europeans did. The average
American child gets only 1871
minutes of physical education g
day, he continued, listing "a
growing tendency to watch tele.
vision" as a principal cause.
Golfers in Majority
Golfers outnumbered others
But Jack Fleck, the National Oper
champion reported that he never
got around specifically to talking
