By the Associnted Press. ST. MORITZ, Switzerland, February 8.—Ringing up the curtain on the year's great program of international sport, more than 500 picked athletes repre- senting 24 nations begin competition in the Winter Olympics here Saturday, with all odds favoring the North coun- tries of Europe to repeat their trlumphs of four years ago. While Norway and Finland, which finished one-two in 1924, are odds-on favorites to top the field in the week of varied and strenuous contests on Alpine fce and snow, contestants from the United States and Canada, as well as Sweden, Switzerland, Austria and Great Britain, are conceded a chance for vic- tory in individual events. Jewtraw Not Defending Title. Charlie Jewtraw, the great young American sprinter, who won the 500- meter speed skating race in 1924, is | not defending his title, but the Uaited States skating contingent, captained by | Valentine Bialis of Lake Placid, N. Y..| has hopes of keeping it in the United | | States. O'Neil Farrell of Chicago s the short-distance ace of the team. The other American skaters are Irving Jaffe, New York, and Ed Murphy, Chi- cago. Norway relles upon Larsen, Even- sen, Ballangrud and Strom. As in track, the Americans appear best In the short-distance event. In the longer races Clas Thunberg, the Finnish “Nurmi of the ice,” scems almost unbeatable. Norway, which made a clean sweep of the skiing events four years 8go. looms at least as strong there as does Finland in the skating races. Haugand Thams, the Norweglan aces, are sure of some determined opposition, how- ever, from the American team. which boasts such performers as Charlie Proc- tor of Dartmouth College, Rolf Monson of Springfield, Mass., and Anders Hau- gen, Chicago veteran. who scored the longest leap in the 1924 games, although given but fourth place be- cause of form. u.

Walter Okeson will be the Eastern “Judge Landis” next Fall, exercis- ing czarlike powers in selection of gridiron officials for most of the leading colleges of this sector. Having experimented with the system last year and found it satis- factory, the group of a dozen insti- tutions have opened the doors and invited the rest of the college fold to sail under Okeson’s banner. The others haven't much choice, now that the old central board of offi- cials has been disbanded. It is one of the most important steps in Eastern foot ball organiza- tion in many years and gives the district a centralized authority on officials, rules and other routine comparative to that possessed by the big conferences in other parts of the country.
