For Sending United States
Athletes To Olympic Games
(Editor's Note: CoL Edward
P. T. (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

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

GREYHOUND OWNER DIES
Portland (U.R) James
Trout, 53, a well-known Oregon
Greyhound owner died last Wed
nesday. 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.
EVERGREEN LEAGUE
Evergreen Bowling League
had very little change in stand
ings this week, with Chuck's

Market. High series was rolled
by Chuck's as well as the only
800 game an 815 effort. Top in
dividual effort was a 245 game
and a 579 series by Howard
