JEWTRAW DROPS OLYMPICS IN ORDER TO STUDY FOR HARVARD

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

An Olympic ice skating champion as a member of the 1928 hockey team, and subsequent University sextets is in prospect as a result of the statement of Charles Jewtraw, winner of the recent 500-meter race in the Olympic games, that he will retire from competitive skating to study for the entrance examinations to the University. A Chicago Tribune dispatch from France is authority for the announcement.

Jewtraw's Olympic victory is by no means the first triumph of his career. Already holder of the world's record for 100, 220, and 880 yards, he should be able to dazzle Crimson opponents of the future with unparalleled exhibitions of speed. On the other hand, however, if the champion's swiftness is not accompanied by ability to play the game of hockey, the situation may develop of an Olympic skating titlist unable to make the University hockey team.
