There seems to be quite a mixup in the number of games won and lost by the teams entered and unty this Is straighten- ed out, there is little to be gained by publishing a standing that is changed from day to day. Efforts will be made to straighten out the muddle, ‘ The St Stanislaus Girls' basket- ball team of New Haven would like to arrange a game or a series of games with any girls team in New Britain.

Such is the opinion of Lawson Robertson, head coach of the Amerfean forces that will go into the battle of Am- sterdam next July, | “It is a mistaken jdea that our/ Olympic team needs & lot of coach- ing." said Robertson today. “What they need most of all is to be kept in a proper frame of mind and proper. ly trained. t “Get the picture of bur team, a selected group of stars from all! parts of the country, picked by the! most rigid tests.. These men know their stuff. Most of them are sea- soned club stars or college men well | developed, champlons and ruocord- | holders. “In the short time they are gath- ered together for the Olympic trip it would be ruinous to attempt to change their styles or teach them new methods of training. Nearly| overy man has some individual ideas | about his conditioning or the way he | should jump, run or hurdle. The coaches’ job is to keep them all in| good humor and at the same time! exercise sufficient discipline to krep! them at top form between the try- outs and the actual Olymple com- petition. “Here's another angle: Many, in fact most of the athletes are the big stars of their college, club or dis- trict. They have been used to recog- nition as the 'big ahot' at home. But | in the all-star Olympic outfit they| lose and perhapa miss the individual | attention te which they have beun‘; accustomed. It's a natural circum- stance. If they get the proper slant they are all right, but often this sit- uation coach, who needs to be an expert in | human psychology as well as in/ training and advising."” 1t is for the beat interests of team morale, an well as practical hand- ling of the squad, that Robertson | #aya he i3 opposed to the suggestion | Oshorn and others, e sent to Amsterdam in ad- | vance of the main body of athletes | to get the benefit of additiopal train- | ing abroad. The theory of those supporting the suggestion is that our athletes have suifered* in the past from lack of | sufficlent time to get rid of their sea | legs. Haxm, rather thai good might come of this, in the opinion of Rab- torval between the time of the time of the team's arrival in Amster- dam and the start of the Olymples will be sufficient to regain any edge | lost on thie trip overscas. ! Bud Houser, a double-champion at the last Olympica, may forego the defence of his shotput ecrown this year and concentrate on the discus throw, in which he holds the world's | record as well as the Olympic title. That is the idea he has {n mind now, according to Rebertson, but| the former Southern California cap. two en who were his chief rivals four | years ago, Ralph Hills of Princeton | have dropped out of competition. Aside from Houser the best shot- put prospects are John Kuck, the | Kansas star, and Herb Schwarbe of Wisconsin, although Gerken of Call- fornia and Biff Hoffman of Stanford also are in the top flight. Dartmouth has at least two can- didates for aull-eastern basketball honors in Captain Hecp, guar®, and rangy center whose six feet three inches of height give him a big jump over most rivals on the tip off. These two performers play- ed & big part in Dartmouth’s dis- puted victory over Pennsylvania last night in as sensational court battle as the intercollegiate league has seen this season.

WILL BB UTOPIAN VILLAGES Powee Trensmission Wil ‘Workingman to Nave Gardem As Well as Al Chicago, Feb. 1V.—(UP)=—An Ameries of small Uteplan villages, with cities pecessary emly for their marketing benefita, was pictured to. day by Alexander Dow, president of the Detroit Edison company. Dow, here attending the mid-weat power conference, said the working' an's dream of & home in the coun- try with a garden, chickens and plenty of fresh air for the children was rapidly becoming possible through development of power trans- mission. “As power tranamiesion develops,” Dow said, “the small manufacturer and even large industries will carry their factories and business to the source of production or to the cheapest land, “This means the workman will fol- low his work te the smaller villages where it will be possible for him te enjoy the things denied him in a congested ecity. ‘He will be able to have his gar- den, his chickens and an ample sup. ply of fresh air untainted by smoke. “All this is rapidly beingymade possible by the ever-extendinf lines of power transmission. Communitiog that were almost totally iselated a decade ago now have every modern clectrical eonvenjence.” The advantages of centralized | marketing. however, safeguards the future of the cities, Dow said. “Doubtleas we shall always have large cities,”” he explained. “The benefita derived from centralized | marketing cannot 0. gether—it's a part of human pature. “But for workmen who desire it, the home In the little village is rapldly becoming possible.” As to the possibilities of wireless |transmission of power, Dow was not | %0 certain.
