With typically Teutonic stubbornness and concentration, the Germans pointed particularly for the recent Olympics, and by work ing out a carefully planned program which threw most of their athletic strength into the many minor sports that form part of the Olympic pro gram, the Nazi muscle men amassed the greatest . number pt Olympic medals. This was acclaimed as a German victory in the Olympics by Gtv Seeks Share Dog license Fund Through jits attorney, Paul Hendricks the city of Salem yes terday moved to obtain a greater share of dog license . funds ! paid for dogs owned by city residents. The county has been paying the city 80 per cent of the net receipts", while the city contends it should receive 80 per cent of the gross collected. In order to straighten out the dispute, members of the "county court suggested that the city should do its own collecting. The matter is to be submitted to the dog control board and to the city council for approval. County Judge J. C. Siegmund claimed that the collections of the licenses could not be. made for the 20 per! cent that the city claims is allowed to the county for making the collections. Judge Siegmund claimed that the divi sion was being made under a contract with the city. Hendricks said that he had heard of no such contract and that it would not be enforceable if it was contrary to the statute gov. ernlng the division of the funds. The contract "as found to be in the possession of District Attorney Trlndle. He reported that the last application of the city was in cor rect form", but that the county should not be responsible for the funds previously used by the county.

Last June, shortly after Whiteside, who came to Harvard from Syracuse in 1929 and won four of his seven clashes against Ed Leader-trained Yale crews, won j his rubber race against his i outstanding rival, Bingham announcedithat the for mer Orange sweeping hero would pot be re-engaged for the 1936 37 season.
