ALTHOUGH Japan may not loom as a serious threat for team honors in the Olympic games, she has sent several athletes who have excellent chances of winning their respective events. It is only in recent years that Japan has taken whole-heartedly to athletics. Taking this into consideration. one must grant that the little brown-skinned men of Japan have done exceptionally well. There are 129 members of the Japanese Olympic team at Los Angeles and numbered among them are athletes have ecua'J.ed or surpassed extet ng w rl.i's rev. ■- I- Chuhei Nambu Japan has a potent a! winner of the bread jump event.

The jump ■was made by Nambu under ideal conditions and there has never been even a suggestion of objection. Another member of the Japanese team who has a great chance of winning an Olympic title is Yoshioka. national champion of Japan at 100 meters. Y oshioka has a mark of 10.7 seconds for the distance, which has been surpassed bv only ione athlete, the talented Frank Wykoff. America’s ace in this event. Yoshioka is a real threat in the 100 meters. If he can hold his form it will not be surprising if he comes down the stretch a winner.
