Sport Slants
By Alan J. Gould
Despite all the agitation about the
matter, it is not only safe to say that
the Olympic games of 1036 will be
held In Berlin but that the United
States will accept the invitation to
compete, after considerable delay
arising from the Jewish question, as
6oon as President Avery Brundage,
of the American Olympic association
visits Germany.
Brundage is going abroad as an of
ficial observer this summer. The Chi
cago contractor, a former Olympic
athlete himself and the president of
the American Amateur Athletic union,
has been entrusted by the A. O. A.
to make a final investigation of the
reports of continued discrimination
against Jewish athletes in Germany
and reach a decision.
In the light of latest assurances
from Berlin, as well as the counsel
of the American members of the In
ternational Olympic committee, I do
not see, how Brundage can do other
wise than notify the German author
ities that the United States formally
accepts the Invitation.
Sound Grounds for Doubt
There has no doubt been sound
basis for the criticism of Germany's
treatment of the Jewish Issue, which
started out as a purely political prop
osition but quickly got all tangled
up with athletics. German Jews were,
In effect, barred from competition or
even the opportunity to have fair
tryouta for athletic teams, according
to trustworthy advices to American
officials.
Not even formal assurances from
Germany's Olympic leaders served to
remove the suspicion that such prej
- udlce had been eliminated, and it
was with the existence of this feel
ing that the American Olympic as
sociation again tabled the dynamite
laden issue at Its last session in New
York.
The American attitude, rightfully
so. is that the Olympic games should
not be permitted to develop racial dis
crimination. There have been many
Olympic squabbles In the past and
no doubt there will be more In the
future but the basic world-wide char- 1
octer of the games has been and
should be kept Intact, without being
PORTLAND, July 10 W) Shoving
across two runs in the tenth Inning,
the House of David baseball team de
feated the Portland Beavers 6 to 4
here Inst night. The Coast leaguers
could do little against the pitching of
Babe Dfdrlkson, feminine star athlete,
and Ambrose. They were held to a
score of 4 to 1 until a rally in the
ninth netted three runs. Three rookie
pitchers for thft Beavers allowed nine
hits.
The score:

For the convenience of farmers,

Too Late to Change
It would cause the biggest kind
of an upheaval now to shift the
Bcene of the 1930 games. Only the
severest) Indictment of Germany's at
titude would be regarded as suffi
cient grounds for so drastic a step.
It would hardly be good business
Judgment, let alone good sportsman
ship, for the Teutons to give cause
for the International Olympic com
mittee to cancel its award to Berlin.
In the first place it takes at least
five or six years to prepare for the
Olympics. Its organization is one of
the most complex things Imaginable,
calling not only for a tremendous pro
gram of physical construction but the
most exhaustive and detailed organi
zation.
Los Angeles laid the groundwork
for its gigantic spectacle of 1932 more
than six years in advance, as a re
sult of which th4 games rose to new
heights in splendor as well as com
petitive achievement. Now Berlin for
years has been planning and build
ing a mammoth athletic plant which I
will rival the coast layout.
