A bare few may reap a harvest; the vast majority will reap nothing but haunting memories of yester- day's glories and headlines. It's the old, sad story of sport. Yet it goes on and on, i936 set- ting a new high for descrtion of amateur ranks by its brightest stars. Fred Perry abdicated his world tennis throne to turn pro. The United States Olympic track team lost Jesse Owens, Ralph Met- calfe and. Jack Torrance to profes- sionalism, while the American swimming team lost Dorothy Payn- ton Hill, Dick Degener and Len- ore Klght Wingard. Lawson Little, greatest amateur golfer since Bobby Jones, turned pro in 1936 as did Zell Eaton, an- other front rank amateur links- man. Women's amateur figure skating lost its one and only Sonja Henie. Perry and Miss Henie stand to clean up tidy fortunes with their professional ventures, playing be- fore large paying crowd's and do- ing features or bits in the movies. Owens has started well but it is doubtful whether Jesse can make as much as a pro as he would have by settling down to some bus- iness and reaping a. rich harvest on his athletic reputation. Little's path as n, professional has been anything but smooth. Ex- cept for winning $1,000 for his vic- tory in the Canadian open, his play in the pro ranks has been unim- prcssive. Metcnlfe will do all right as he's coaching.

More than a score of amateur stars took a recess from competit- ion ln 1936.‘ Some of them prob- ably never wlll return. It is very doubtful whether Helen Wills Moody will compete in any more nationaltennis championships. Jack Lovclock undoubtedly has run his lht mile. Kit Klein, women's speed skating champion, seems to have quit for good. Mrs. Glenna Collett Vare, however, may take another whack at the national golf crown.

Preparatior for this szeable job takes placr in a dining car kitchen sxtccn feet long and six and two-thrds feet wide where apptoflmately one thousand dlaha of all kinds must be washed during the meal period by one man at a sink less than two feet square. In serving the above number of meals, w. Swlnden states the trav- elling public will consume about. four thousand, five hundred pounds of fresh turkeys with cranberry sauce, and to dress these turkeys approximately three hundred loaves of stale bread will be used. Eng- lfsh plum pudding. with hard or sweet sauce, will of course be very popular dish and n. suffclent quan- tity has been prepared to meet all individual requests. Mince pic’ too. will not. be forgottnn. Two thous- and pounds of this filling will go into pies just like mother used to make. A few passengers who do not care for plum pudding or mince i p'e, and than will be very much in the minority, will probably order ‘ ice cream or Canadian cheese with ,‘blccuits to cap the malls.
