That one will always be rememberâ€" ed for L"Affaire Holn, or Jarrett, to give the alluring breastâ€"stroke swamâ€" mer her married name as of then. She broke trainirg on the ship, got ‘herself deligshtfu ky nlastered, defied the badge wearers to toss her off the team and wound un a mere spectator in Berlin. (She did managze to mest the Crown B‘lly Rose, the greatest gift to journâ€" alism s‘nce the invention of the typoâ€" graphical error, had sscmething to say about the Holm, or Jarrett rhubarb in his newspaper column. To wit: "As the Saturday Evening Post tells it. Avery Brundage had nothing to do with bouncing my missus off the team. The decision was made by the 20 or 30 members of the Committee who made the voyage. It was up to Brundage, as the ranking committeeman present, to make the announcement." It that true?" I asked Eleanor, Committee Brundage Stooges " ‘Definitely not," said the girl who placed ‘first in the ‘32 Olymipics and was never defeated after that. ‘The committee was comrosed of csaches and cther sportsâ€"struck people who were getting a free trin to Europe only because Brundage okayed them. They voted his way or else." This can sscarcely be accented as a thoroughly accurate picture <f what happened. As I have noted before, it is nopular to‘ throw bricks at Brundage who is very high brass in amateur athâ€" letics. One reason he gets an unpopâ€" ular press is that he belisves the ru 1: ru‘» book should be respected. His approach to amateurism and sportsâ€" mansh‘p is doggedly idealistic and completely honest. I hapnen to be one { several who amjlaud him for this. There can be no doubt that his p>sâ€" ition in amateur athletics is influenâ€" tial, as Mrs.â€"Rose charges, But there were others on the committse at that t me who were quite influential themâ€" selves.

For one thing, they don‘t have that kind of money. For another, thev‘d rather have Scotch or, in desperation ever, fresh paints. An off cial of the steamshin company was the host., Largely,»the gucsts were s orts writers and theirâ€"wives. Eleanor was an added starter. The jparty «WB@s dield on the second or third afterm>on out. I cuots from a log I kept on that trip: "July 17th: One cof the water nymths of the swimâ€" ming team who became a bit heady at a cocktail party was reprimanded for break ng training tcday and defied the QOlympic Committee to put her off the team. In this she was supported by another passenger, Mr. Charles MacArthur, the Br:adway playwright and dintinguished authority on acts of God. It was ultimately decided to let the young lady sleen it off. The newsmen agreed to ignore the inciâ€" dent.‘" When the firebell ood position across the e wagon. A pull on a Julf 2rd bell rang a 4iftle over twenty years ago it was a beautiful sight to behold.

By the way of defense the alarmed ccmmittee foolishly issued an offizsial statement that ‘with one exâ€" ception‘ the behavior of the teaim was beyond criticism. Mrs. Eleanor Holm Jarrett, the swimmer, accepted this as a personal attack ard sa‘d: ‘They can‘t do this to me.‘ And so, using logic neculiarly her cwn, she went to another cocktail pasty." The pointed fact is that the comâ€" mites, which would include Brundage, of course, was genu‘nelyv eager to overâ€" icok the first drinking bout in which the young lady participated. When she started teolling them where to get off and continued to laugh at training regulations they had no alternative. Even badge wearers dan be expected to take only so much pushing around.

Although they have ceen the fate of their kind in country after country which has fallen prey to the hardâ€"headed revolutionary meâ€" thods of the Communists, these people never seem to learn. The Communists use them, then throw them aside. But their bleating continues undiminishâ€" ed on such subjects as "finding a common ground with the Marxist Demorcats‘, and "taking the appeal out of Communism by demonstrating the superiority of the American way of logic neculiarly her cwn, shne went to led hopeless". The emotional jitters and the idiotic political attitude which arise from modern woollyâ€"headedness are in the main a result of losing tooch with reality. The Communists at least know where they came from and where they hope to go. Many Demoâ€" crats have forgotten this, and are floundering in a great uncharted sea, striking out wildly this way or that, with no sense of direction. They talk of combining the good things in Comâ€" munism with the good things in our system to produce a "New Democâ€" racy". They exhort us to "play down our differences‘ and to search for those pbints which we both believe in. They say that there is no fundamenâ€" tal disagreement between Communism and Christianity.
