Hahn hopes that the scene of his
European conditioning will be Eng-
land, where lie can talk to the.na-
tives and they to him. He lias no
hankering for France, because the
language spoken there Is strange to
him.
Hahn probably will pass up all
exhibition opportunities abroad If
ho is fortuhate enough to win 20
points for the United States in com-
petition. He believes lie will return
directly to Nebraska, where harvest-
ing will be in full swing.
