Not a Square Deal, Is American View —Locals in Big Week-End Games

Feeling That French Olympic Committee Did 0 Not Give Even Break —Longest Ski Jump Gets Fourth Place. By United Press CHAMONIX, France, Feb. s.—Ruled out of first place in the long jumping ski contest on a technicality, the United States team had to be content with fourth place in the winter sports of the Olympic games which were completed here Monday.

Practically all of the American athletes left today for Paris to spend a few days before returning to the United States. While no open expressions have been voiced, the American athletes of all the teams feel that the French committee didn’t go out of its way to give the Americans an even break. Norway ran away with the winter sports championship with a huge total of 13414 points, Finland was secOlympic Standing Norway 134 Vi points Finland 76Vi points Great Britain 30 points United States 20 points Sweden 28 points Austria 25 points Switzerland 24 points France 19 H points Canada 11 points Czeeho-Slovakta BVi points Belgium 6 points Italy 1 point ond with points. Great Britain third with 30 points, the United States fourth with 29 points and Sweden fifth with 26 points. Anders Haugen of Minneapolis, the star jumper of the American team, made the greatest distance in the long ski jump and he was thought to have won ten points that would have given the United States third place. The judges, however, ruled that he was guilty, of "poor form” and they shoved him down to fourth place. Ragnar Omtvedt, the American jumper, who dislocated his knee on Ids first jump was not as seriously Injured as It was at first feared. He is laid up in the hospital here and wHI be confined to his bed for at least ten days. Baron Pierre De Coubertln, president of the International Olympic committee was here for the closing exercises and officials of the hockey teams urged upon him the propriety of making the hockey games count for more points than curling, lng and some of the minor 3\iiv SNAPPY SCRAPS ON CAPITOL A.

GOLF SERIES NO. 3 Sarazen Stands Out in Match Skill

By JOE WILLIAMS, NEA Service Staff Writer. '■■■n ROBABLY the game offers Pno finer combination of match play and stroke play genius than Is embodied In the stocky make-up of Gene Sarazen, graduate of the caddy ranks. Sarazen proved his mettle as a stroke player by winning the open championship at Skokie at the age of 21 In 1922; the same year he established his match play qualities by winning the pro-

fessional championship at Oakmont. Sarazen has ye; to lose to an important foe at mt teh play since reaching the championship levels. Last season he repeated In the professional tourna me n t, and was the only major champion to do so. Thus, In two years Sarazen has won all his matches in the professional tournaments. On top of that he won every special match in which he played. On three

different occasions he has beaten Walter Hagen In the past two years and only recently he trimmed Arthur Havers, visiting British champion, in a special 72-hole match on the Pacific coast. Sarazen has the brilliancy that makes for success In medal play and tho square Jaw that routs timidity In the man-to-man tests. This Is a rare combination, and

Chesbro Objects By NKA. Sendee NEW YORK, Feb. 6.—Comes Jack Chesbro, back from antiquity, to deny the responsibility of wild-pitching the Yankees out of a championship back in 1904. That was the year the Yankees lost the flag by one game, and that game was lost by Chdsbro to the Red Sox In the eighth inning when one of his spit-balls landed against the grandstand. "They said It was a wild pitoh that day," remarked Chesbro, recalling the incident, "but I think Kleinow should have caught it.”

De Pauw has lost only one game and that on a trip when Lombard Flipped up on them. The Methodists have one of their greatest teams this season and many fans predict that If Franklin is to be defeated this year It will be on the De Pauw doer, Friday.

Ten Irvington basketmen made the trip. The schools have broken even iu two years on the hardwood.

He says it Is up to them to stop the flashy Illinois sharpshooters. Middlesworth is still on the bench with an injured knee and Keach 14 out of condition. The rest of the men are in the “pink.” Griggs at center, Hooker and Paul at forwards, Nipper and Harker at guards is the way Coach Page probably will line them up.
