S. subscription (TIME, Feb. 24) to see its debut on the Olympic program. Minor sport winners: Egypt (weight lifting); Argentina (polo); Italy (fencing); Germany (cycling); Austria (canoeing). Jarretts. Dismissed from the U. S. swimming team for drinking three weeks ago, Mrs. Elinor Holm Jarrett last week continued writing for Hearst papers, said she planned to accept a Twentieth Century-Fox cinema contract, learned that she had been banned from all amateur meets presumably for professionalism. Art Jarrett, her radio-crooning husband, arrived in Berlin from the U. S. last week, tried unsuccessfully to persuade Chairman Avery Brundage of the U. S. Olympic Committee to discuss his wife's mishaps: Said he: "I have no idea what amount, no idea what court, and no idea of the precise basis of the action, but I definitely intend to sue."
