Y., Febru- ary 13.—-Wherever you turn in this thriving mountain- locked village, whether it be at bob-run on historic Mount Van Hoevenberg, the ski jump at Intervale Hill, the sandwich shop on Main street or the Olympic arena, opposite the town hall, you see a world champion or an ex- world champion. And even in| this sophisticated age, when trans- | atlantic flyers scarcely get a pass-, ing glance, it is unique to see so many men and women who repre- sent the top rung in their respec- tive avocations centered in one place. Sonja Henie of Norway. the incom- parable figure skater, who w.on the international tit'e before a packed house at the arena Wednesday evening, never misses & contest. Whetber it be sled- dog racing demonstrations, hockey ex- hibitions, bobsledding or ski-jumping, | talented Sonja is right at the scene cheering for her favorites. The grace- ful world champion, whose impressive triumph over Fritzi Burger of Austria in the fancy skating was as well| - merited as it was superb, brought more | than 20 trunks here with her. Every time she appears on the ice or on the | street it is in & new and invariably striking ensemble. only her luck charm, an old rabbit’s foot. alwass adorns her costumes. It is pinned to her dress, just over her heart. and she told the writer she didn't think she could ever win without it.

The bobsled teams offer some of the most interesting personalities now com- peting in the international races. Most of these hill pilots are of rugged build —fashioned along the lines of wrestlers rather than sprinters. But there is one diminutive entry. who looks like a mideet when he stands beside some of his mountainous teammates and op- ponents. He is Reto Capadrutt, 19- year-old captain of the Swiss team.and the voungest and most daring of the bob pilots. In addition to his charming personality, Capadrutt bears the dis- tinction of being the youngest ever to complete in bobsleigh races either here or on the Continent. | HE popular pilot from the region T which enhanced Hannibal's fame as a military genius is the son of Rudolph Capadrutt, director of the Bank of Graubuenden. At 16 years of age he enjoyed his first trip down "one of the many slides that dot the mountain country of his native land. Last vear he astonished the bob world by winning the Netscher Cup at St. Moritz and by taking fourth place in the world championships in the same competition, In the bob races pre- ceding the last mentioned titular com-, petition, known as the bob derby. he took first place with one of the most reckless exhibitions ever witnessed on a European track. The gallant mite of a fellow not only established the best. record for St. Moritz run but also shattered his own low marks on six different occasions William Fisk of the American bob team is numbered among the most ver- satile athletes assembled in this village for the Olympic Winter games. Not long ago, he took the premier honors in the international boblet races at St Moritz. In addition to his ability as a bob piiot, he is a brilliant skiler and a crack goifer, having been a member of the Cambridge unit that toured Amer- jca and played many of the best college teams in this country. NOTHER all-round _sportsman is Paul Stevens, brother of Hubert Stevens. This native son of Lake Placid is A member of Henry Hombur- ger's record-breaking Saranac Red Devils, the outfit which established the Tecentiv shattered record for the Mount | & Van Hoevenberg run. In 1929, 1930 and 1931 Stevens won t title, and a decade and a half ago he was one of the most noted of automo- bile racing drivers, During the war he wns emploved as a test pilot at Key West, Fla. and was the first man to use a plane for hunting moose in Canada.

He would much rather do it then tell how it was done. “Obyiously. one cannot with any de- gree of certainty tell what his speed is going to be,” he said upon his arrival from England this week. “Speed at Daytona Beach depends on so many faciors that may not make a posi- tive statement.” OR one thing. the beach must be w shape.

There are thousands of plays. But those which are successful are, in the main, as simple as this floor play of Coach Craig Ruby's Illinois five. Right guard (5) has the ball. His right forward (3) breaks toward him from his corner of the court and receives a pass when opposite the foul line. No. 3 immediately re- Iays the ball to his center (1) at the foul line, at the same time turn- ing at full speed and directing his course in front of 1. No. 3 goes so close by 1 that his immediate opponent is blocked out of the play by 1 and 1's opponent. Consequently, when 3 gets a return pass from 1, he is in position for a dribhle around 1 te the basket where he makes a close-up shot.

S. Entry. Eddie Towns, former golf pro at In- dian Spring, died yesterday in Pitts- burgh on the twentieth anniversary of his coming to the United States from Scotland, his birth place. He would have been 40 years old on March 7. Towns’ death occurred at the home of his wife’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Harry Christman, 1435 Dormont avenue, Dor= mont. In 1017 Towns became pro at the Allegheny Country Club, but when the United States entered the World War he enlisted in the Canadian Army. Later he came here as private instruc- tor to Edward B. McLean, then went to Indian Spring, where he was succeeded five years ago by J. Monro Hunter.
