(Eddie) Eagan, one-lime boxer and former New York state athletic commissioner, is raising money to i e n d 400 American athletes and offic ials abroad for the 1956 Olym pic Games. In the following dispatch he explains why pros pects are doubtful for the United States to "win" next year's games.) By COL. EDWARD P. F. EAGAN Written For United Preu New York (U.R) When they pick an unofficial "winner" of the 1956 Olympic Games it may well be Soviet Russia. The Rus sian state-sponsored team has been preparing for many years to outstrip the champions of the free nations. But the modern Olympic Games which began in 1896 have never had as their ultimate end any nation winning the champ ionship. The sports are entirely individualistic, and rightly so. Our history in the Olympics gives us great pride in our coun try and its fine young athletes. Just recently I completed a trip around the world and I can as sure you that there will be in tense interest in all countries as tc the individual results of the 156 games, which take place in Sweden, Italy and Australia. This intense interest is due primarily to the competition of the Russian athletes. The policy of the United States has always been to sup port the American teams by pri vate contribution: Our athletes always compete with a free spirit, and it may be that we may not have our best athletes in Australia due to the time ele ment. Distance To Travel The Olympic Games take place in late November and early De cember when many of our track champions will be attending col lege. There is also the great distance to travel to these sports which will prevent those who work from taking off that much time. Recently, our American ama teur boxing champions went to Europe. They won only one match, drew one and lost five. They were enthusiastically greet ed by the Irish, English, Ger mans and Scandinavians, but the result shows that the boxers who Sooners Eye Unblemished Grid Season New York (U.R) Orange Bowl-bound Oklahoma, which is favored to make Oklahoma A&M its 29th straight victim Saturday, is the only one of the nation's 21 undefeated and un tied football teams which hasn't finished its regular season. Oklahoma tries for its 10th 1955 triumph when it ends its regular campaign against the Oklahoma Aggies at Norman, Okla. Miami (Ohio) and Whitworth (Wash.) wound up their seasons Thursday and boosted their per fect records to 9-0 with hard earned triumphs. Miami scored twice in the final period to beat Cincinnati, 14-0. Whitworth came from behind to edge College of Idaho, 7-6, for its second straight perfect season. Albany State Beaten Albany (Ga.) State, the only other previously undefeated-un-,tied team in action Thursday, dropped off the list when it was shut out by Fort Valley State, 20-0. Albany State had won seven in a row. Maryland, which will meet Oklahoma in the Orange Bowl, leads the perfect record schools in 1955 victories with 10. Okla homa is the top scoring team on the list with 312 points. Ten victories: x-Maryland. Nine victories: Oklahoma, x Hillsdale (Mich.), x-Grambling (La.), x-Heidelberg (Ohio), x-Mi-ami (Ohio), x-Northern (S. D.) Teachers, x-Maryland State, x-Southeast (Mo.) State, x-Whit-worth (Wash.). Eight victories: x - Shepherd (W. Va.) State, x-Muskingum (Ohio), x-Coe (Iowa), x-Centre (Ky.), x-Juniata (Pa.), .x-Parsons (Iowa), x-Stevens Point (Wis.), x-Drexel Tech (Pa.), 2Alfred (N. Y.).

He had been ill more than a year. Trout came to Ore gon in 1933 when Greyhound racing was first legalized. won five of the ten champion ships in the Olympic Games in Helsinki, Finland, in 1952, had better training. Only two weeks before our team boxed in London, where they lost 6-4, the Russian team had a different score. They beat the British team 8-2. However, the Russians brought their own judges and referees, and judges and referees are most important individuals in deciding interna tional boxing contests. The main reason that our team did not do so well in the recent trip to Europe was be cause they were not in condi tion. They had had no competi tion since last spring and the trip was a spontaneous one. They fought seven times in 26 days. Changes In Ability We have the same problem next year in considering the try outs for the Olympic teams. Some of the tryouts are to be held in June; the actual com petition not until November. There can be great changes in the ability of athletes between June and November. As chairman of the United States Olympic finance commit tee it is my hope that the Amer ican people realize the import ance of a contribution at this time. We will send more than 400 athletes and officials and the equipment. A million and a half dollars are needed for this pur pose. Contributions are being received at the U. S. Olympic Fund, Biltmore Hotel, New York. Those carrying our shield in the Olympics have a far great er task to accomplish than mere ly displaying athletic prowess they are American ambassadors of all that is the very essence of the United States, conveyed through them, to the rest of the world.
