Notices have been sent out to about 100 students who are expected to report the first day and other notices will be sent out Monday morning.

PADDOCK, FLASH OF CINDER PA TH SPEAKS SUNDA .Y Love of ConteSt, Desire to Win, Perseverance in Training Advised TELLS OF REMINISCENCE Famous Sprinter Warni Against Overconfidece in Athletic Competition "The love of the contest, the desire to win, and the perserevance to train and to stick are leading factors that go to make a champion," said Charlie Paddock, world famous sprinter and Olympic champion, in his talk in the University chapel Sunday night. Mr. Parrock's talf dealt mainly with personal reminiscences of the spirit of famous athletes that he has known. He cited the example of "Bo" McMillan of Centre College to show how training helped a man and a school. He told of the time when severe training aided Centre College to withstand and to sub due the faster and heavier Harvard team. "Dempsey, Tilden, Johnston, Nurmi and many other familiar figures have over come obstacles and have showed that by intensive training that they are worthy to be called champ ions. I have known of several men who because of their unusual constitution have always had to train to keep the laurels that they won." continued Mr. Paddock. He told of the unwritten law of the ring, that a champion never quits, he goes down fighting. He said that Jack Dempsey told him that he knew that he couldn't win after the eighth round of his fight with Tunney. that he wai whipped, but because of the unwritten law of the squared circle, he cofldn't stop fighting. He said that "every nation that has led the world in culture and brain pow er, was at the same time leading i, physical powers." That this was true :f the United States today but that ithletes of America in every branch were not as strong, nor did they have the stamina that they possessed half a lozen years ago. He cited incidents in every branch of sport to substantiate uis statement.
