Olympic (lames
To Be Regular
4-Ring Circus
LOS ANGELES (U.R)—There are
to be so many different things go- I
ing on at once during the Olympic
Games, July 30 to August 14. in
Los Angeles, that tiie average wo-1
man spectator will draw a sudden:
breath when she contemplates the ]
program, and ask, "What’s a girl
lo do?”
The often mentioned "four ring
circus" will be a mere spell of loaf- |
ing, as compared with tiie show
the busy Olympic athletes will have .
before them, and almost everything ]
on the program will exercise a lure i
for sports-loving femininity.
For who would want to miss
those dashing track stars, youth
personified?
Or those modern discus throw-
ers. who pose like Grecian statues
and then let fly like a pretzel un-
coiling? And that’s only the pro-
verbial "drop in the bucket" com-
pand to the 135 diferent events,
based on 18 distinct types of sports, j
ali crowded into 6 days of sitting’
beneath grandstands or sun shades |
Few women Olympic visitors will
.vant lo miss the night football1
game, contested by graduated sen- j
