...Finland and Wide and Ohm of Sweden appear to Coach Farrell to outrank anything America can offer. With Petri of Germany, who has done 32 minutes flat for the 10,000 metres, Beddarl of France, rated at 32.18 for the same distance, and Matilainen of Finland, the European contenders seem to have clinched most of the places in this event.

Figures are perhaps available on this question, and it would be interesting to examine them. Very accurate such statistics could hardly be, but it seems likely that they would show very definitely that four years spent at college are not a gift-edged security against the rigours of the broadlinge a fact which needs perhaps some emphasis now that Seniors and other graduating students are about to be interviewed by employers-many of them not, at all "sold...
