THE LINCOLN STATE JOURNAL. THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 7, PIVB, AMERICAN SKATERS ARE GOOD LOSERS United States Olympic Team Reflects Glory Altho It Wins But One First Place in Winter Games. SAILOR BRIDE AGREE r.jm.v YORK, Feb. skaters did full credit to themselves and their country in the opening of the Olympic games at Chamonix, even if they couldn't finish any higher than third place. To those who consider nothing is worth while unless won, the American boys who scored only 11 points against Finland's 48 1-2 and Norway's 39 1-2 points didn't do anything to crow about.

The main point, however, is that the Americans did not alibi when they had no opportunity to crow. They showed the European nations that at least four American athletes knew how to lose. No one who had any facts at hand or who gave it any study dared to hope that the American team would. the skating championship. Finland could not send a baseball team to this country that would have a chance to beat the New York Yan- i rmng team is engaging tho Washmg- kees and skating is just as much a ton university mermen at St Louis.

The gallant ship Matrimony II. of Charles Fleming grizzled sailor of fifty- five, has only struck one storm in a month of sailing since he swung his hammock beside that of former Miss Vivian Fisk, eighteen, vivlc- ious golden haired adopted daughter of Joseph Fisk, merchant, on a runaway dare just after Christmas.

'he storm was struck when the veteran tar tried to show his fair young mate how to make "good" cocoa after she had made it for him for two weeks and he said it was "good" every time. She hated to be deceived that way. But his tanned cheek scarcely felt the blow of the plump hand, and the weather was clear again in a few minutes. national and universal sport in the northern countries of Europe as baseball is in this country. Hats Off To Jewtraw.

Perhaps they could not have won the championship even if they had been able to workout daily before the games started. Several of the American skaters were violently ill on the voyage across the Atlantic and when they arrived at Chamonix they found a mild'spell of weather upon the resort which made it Impossible for the. skaters to get out on the ice. They were all short of work but the layoff did not handicap the Finns, the Norwegians, the Swedes and the French. Perhaps the rest did them good because they all had a lot of work under their belt.
