tbe fact that sports consciousness has

s O n e of the important contrlbut-

Uie fact that partlcipation i n sports
is" developed to a Wide degree and
Uiat a great deal' cfattention has

:Women as eafly as 1906 won a wider

Inother European countries by win-ning
the right to vote i n parliamen-tary
elections is a fact that must not
be; overlooked. Thl» made it possible
for women to participate more equaily
with men; In many phases of social
life includlng sports.
Sports consciousness in Finland has
been further increased by • the fact

said of the availabillty o^ sports in

just what the Olympic Games werie

Here is what Life Magazine really
objects to.
Life doesn't like American boys
to come home from international
competitlon and say, as our mag-niflcent
bordle champion Harri­son
Dillard did to this reporter:
flVfaat better w a y U there to pro-mote

In mMrting congratulations by,the
Soviet^ opponent he defeated, ex-;
elalmed at Helsinki: "Tfais Is the
greatest thing In the World. IVeVe
alltogether as athletes anij dlf-ferencet
are forgotten. I honenilr
cao't see why people ali over the

simply: "They're svell people/^ Qr the
coxswahi of the Annapolls eight oar

Gymn^tlcs try to develop the sense
of movement, position and rhythm, as

first requlrement of the teacher Is to
watch and Investlgate the manlfesta-tlons
