By Alan Gould
San Francisco and Los Angeles,
usually on the opposite side of any
sporting argument that happens to
bob up along the big Blope, have
united in the common Olympic cause.
More power to them, say we.
even though It Is admitted some of
this stimulation comes as the out
growth of an "article sponsored by
Alan Gould . . . (and which) has
for its basis an Interview with Av
ery Brundage of Chicago," president
of the American Olympic committee.
Mr. Brundage, through this ex
clusive "tartlcle." sounded a very
plain warning as to the condition
of the Olympic financial resources,
emphasizing that the American
Olympic committee will not spend
money it doesn't collect, "even If It
.4
own,? use tobacco that's
rolling
J for 50 cigarettes
means we cannot raise Enough money
to send more than half 4 doewn ath
letes to Los Angeles."
To this pessimism, the Olympian,
houso organ of the powerful Olyta
plo club of flan Francisco, objects
and accuses Mx. Brundage of "hol
lerln' before you're hit." It neglects
to recognize, however, that a num
ber of blows already have been
struck, financially speaking, juut
that the Chicago business man sum.
ply rose up. qulto properly, to face
tho facts .before it Is too late.
Ho seemA to have accomplished
his purpose, for, having taken this
fling, the Olympian rallies to the
cause. , .
RALLYING 4!EY
"Callfornlans will not, ntuet not,
permit this failure,' says the Olym.
plan's editorial. "In several great
emergencies she has brought gold
Into almost empty ' coffers at tho
eleventh hour. When has there
ever been a drive for the Oonurwnity
Chest, . when, pessimism has not
foretold failure, only to find It filled
sometimes during the very last
days of a determined drive?
"Distance and the great cost of
transportation may in some degree
lessen the volume of -attendance
and reduce the number of contest
ants,, hut neither deterring power
can make the tenth Olympiad at
Los Angeles the comically puny
show of half a dozenathletes as ex
pressed In the back-down, speech of
President Brundage.
"The far west will not permit
tho intrusion of such a calamity.
Wo of the Pacific .states will not
permit . it, San Francisco will not
permit It, and who believes that our
wonderful sister city of Los An
geles will other than laugh at the
merest suggestion that she will
permit it either?
"T j-ic AntrolnB ns t.VlA TMllunir rn
eratlon has already established, has
made wilder predictions, thrown
more bluffs, fulfilled more extrava

of the United States, and she has
not yet recorded a single failure.
"Such ceaseless enterprise . as this
Is going to redouble Itself In the face
even of the destroying predictions
touched upon, . . So go to It, Los
Angeles I You never failed yet and
such a tragedy is not In the cards
now." ,).. w.a
'HOLLER "AGAIN
Perhaps a little more "hotlerin"'
by the aforesaid Mi-. Brundage of
Chicago will help stimulate the cur
rent drives for Olympic funds in
Boston, New York, Philadelphia, as
well as his home town.
Presumably even the Olympian
would "permit" that.
