There are no seasonal let- ups in tennis, golf, swimming and track. The athletes either move in- doors or follow the sun to such parts of the world as permit com- petition. Wise, indeed, is the ath- lete who points for the highest honors and does not mind an oc- casional defeat when the defeat means little or nothing. Fred Perry of England is just such a man. Perry may suffer a lapse in form during the “offt season, in some minor tournament but when the big tests roll around you can depend on him to be ready for all comers. Last winter Adrian Quist beat Perry to take the Aus- tralian tennis title. Australia’s hopes of winning the Davis cup soared. Later, Perry went down before the slashing attack of Baron Gott- fried von Cramm in a French tournament. Germany’s tennis stock was boosted to the skies. Perry smiled and took those de- feats in good grace. He knew well that when the big tests at Wim- |time. All spring we received glow- |a bruised right side. !ing reports of a young English bank clerk, Stanley Wooderson by name, who was destined to win the Olympic 1,500-meter championship on the strength of three convincing victories over Lovelock. But if you glance over the list of Olympic champions crowned in Berlin you !will not find any mention of Stan- |ley Wooderson. For the simple rea- son that Mr. Wooderson did not manage to survive the qualifying heats. Jack Lovelock wears the 1,- he created a new world and Olym- pic record in making a show of the greatest milers in the world, Beccali, Italy’s 1932 Olympic 1,500~ meter champion; Archie San Ro- mani and Gene Venzke. Jesse Owens wisely pointed for the Olympic Games. And Owens romped off with three individual titles and ran on the winning 400- meter relay team to prove himself the outstanding athlete at Berlin. True, Owens paved the way to his Olympic triumphs with a series of amazing victories this spring, but |the great Jesse suffered a stunning setback a year ago at the national championships when he was head- ed to the tape in the 100 meters by Eulace Peacock, and a few min- utes later was beaten by the same athlete in the running broad jump. Those defeats probably had much to do with Owens’ success this sum- mer. First of all, they showed Jesse that he could not carry through a killing campaign and still be at the peak of his form for the big tests. They taught him to take things easy and point for the in- ternational meeting. He was content to let the other fellows bask in the spotlight during the indoor sea- son zad win unimportant cham- pionships which would be forgotten when the Olympic program got underway, Owens' reward came in Berlin before the largest crowds ever to watch track and field com- petition. It's the mark of a great athlete to go along without strain in minor 500-meter crown.
