in a recent issue of a New York paper, a sport writer sheds a. few crocodile tears over what he terms the ‘poor showing of Canada at the Olympic winter sports at Cham- onix recently. The burden of his argument is that Finland. Norway and Sweden-countries with con- siderably less population than Cunada—far outscored Canada. Taking his own argument of popu- lation as a basis for points, one would expect the United States to be far in the van. Yet, the Unit- ed States contingent, outnumbered Canada's scored no where north European countries did.
