and obviously more Interested and far better Informed than anyone In this country, enthusiastically urge participation in the games and predict their outstanding HefiiMl Would He Tho attitude of the people of the United States towards matters of re ligious freedom and racial equality Is too well known to require any emphasis, such as some people seem to believe would be given by the refusal of the United States to participate tn the games. On the contrary, refusal to participate would serve no good purpose. As far as this Immediate celebration of tho games is concerned the absence of America simply would result in loss of American athletic prestige. Victories which America would figure to gain simply would go to other countries home, probably, to Germany. The Olympic games, the Impartial world organization which has insisted upon fair treatment for Jews, and everybody else, would receive a handsome slap from those whom it has sought to protect.

America, of course, would be the chief loser, having always been the greatest winner. Nothing would be gained except whatever satisfaction would accrue to those who think It's a lot of fun to get revenge for bad treatment by Injuring all the Innocent bystanders. I should personally think that those who seem bent on using the Olympic games to revenge themselves on Germany would get more satls-i faction out of sending across an American team so strong that the German spectators would wear them- selves Into a state of nervous and I physical exhaustion rising up a doz- en times day while a German band played the Star Spangled Banner In celebration of American athletic trl-1 umphs. Henry Tours Europe And Finds Much Enthusiasm In 1936 Games (The following first-hand analysis of the Olympic games' outlook, now involved In considerable controversy, represents the views of an American sports editor, Bill Henry, of Ijm Angeles, who has Just returned from a semi-official viMt to (ietinany. Henry was technical director of tho 19:12 Olympics.

His trip abroad was for the combined purpu.se of consulting with German Olympic leaders on technical aspects of the 11136 games snd observing deeiopmcnt for the benefit of American Olympic authorities.) mil, m.Mtv Especially lor The Ainclatcil press) NEW YORK. Aug. 12. (I'j Return-inii from Europe where everything seemri to indicate the success in history for the Olympic games 1 find It pretty difficult to adjust myself to the perfectly obvious contrary opinion held by a large group of people in the United states. Everywhere else in the world feverish preparations are going ahead for participation in the 1036 games.

The largest number ol nations In Olympic history, torty-eigiir. has entered. The popular demand lor admission tickets, evidenced by an advance sale In the hundreds of thousands of dollars, a year In udvancu of the games, is obviously an indication of their financiul success. Certainly no country has ever prepared as lavishly or as thoroughly as has Germany whoso now nearlng completion, are simply staggering in their scope. Other Nations Enthusiastic All this despite the fact that surrounding Germany on every hand are nations which arc hereditary enemies of Germany, nations which are suspicious ol her every move, nations which disagree violently with Germany on every political, economic, racial and religious question.

In the light of the terrific excitement evidenced by some people in the United States which has, comparatively speaking very little of this natural antagonism, the whole situation doesn't seem to add up and make sense. The answer, of course. Is very simple. Other nations recognize that political, racial and religious questions do not belong In a discussion Involving the Olympic games. Th gentlemen ermrged with the responsibility of preserving the ideals of the Olympic games, the International Olympic committee, represent a wide variety of nations and are not only zealous champions of the Olympic Ideals but are quite representative of world thought.

Their president. Count Baillet La-tour, is a Belgian. The founder and lite president of the Olympic games. Baron de Coubertin. Is a Frenchman.

Both Jewish and Catholic faiths are strongly represented In the Olympic committee membership.

Last year considerable difficulty was had in getting the qualifiers home before dark. Today's second 18-hole medal round is expected to see quite a change In tho present standings of the leaders, but It Is not likely that Adams will blow away his four-stroko lead on the field. Joe played with par for the first three holes of his round, went one over on each of the next two, and then snared his first blrdte on the par-four sixth. He again went over on the par five seventh hols, but got another birdie on the eighth, and finished the first nine with a par for his 38, one over regulation figures.
