TENTY-FIvE HUNDRED ENTRIES
Army of Athletes to Fake Part in the
London OIympiad.


LONDON, July n.-There are twenty-four
countries or colonies competing in the
Olympic games, and the humber of entries
is expected to be In the neighborhood OF
$500. Lord Desborough, president of the
British Olympic council, considers the
United States the most dangerous rival OF
England. 1t is in the distance runs, walk
ing. swimming and diving that he thinks
England has an advantage. Speaking of the
coming games, Lord Desborough says:
Our arrangements with the Franco-British
exposition has secured for us an arena for
the games which SO far mas been unap-
preached in size and convenience. AS TO
the prospects of British athletes, 1t is not
an easy question to answer, but, personally,
1 believe we shall do much better than In
previous Olympic games. Thet country
where the games are held naturally has an
advantage; the entries, however, are limited
in all events, which will help the visiting
countries. In field and track athletes, L
expect the United States representatives
will be very strong, and WI shall have to
do our best to hold our own.
Then there are many events In which our
foreign visitors start under better auspices
than ourselves, perhaps; in throwing the
discus. for example, and the javelin, both
tances are measured by meters, not yards,
But, as l say, on the whole we ought to do
we'll, especially in the long-distance run
ming, swimming and high diving. In any
case, however. though 1 should naturally
wish to see our men as successful as pos
sible, l do not think strong competition by
our foreign visitors, and even defeat of our
own representatives, would be anything but
good for international sport.
These games have an aspect much wider
than the success of any particular nation:
They are the expression of the ~undoubted
spread of athleticism among the civilized
countries of the world and Of the interna-
tional character which all sport has been
assuming during the last quarter OF a cen
fury. To me this widening in the interest
taken in manly exercises is a very good
augury, and we of the British Olympic
council wish It every success, even at the
cost Of the temporary success of our own
athletes. The periodical meeting OF the
flower of youth and early manhood Of the
competing nations, the representatives, In
fact, 81 the generation in whose hands the
immediate destinies of these countries lie
Is to me a matter of very great results
hereafter.

YOUNGEST ONE OF THE ATHLETES
sixteen-Year-OId Boy who Made the
Team as q Swimmer.

NEW YORK, July 1.-THE youngest
athlete who sailed for the Olympic
games on the steamer Philadelphia was
Harry Hebner of the Illinois Athletic
club of Chicago, the greatest aquatic find
Of the indoor swimming season of 1908.
Hebner is but 16 years old. and j few
months ago was totally unknown, but
under the care of Instructor Frank Sulli-
van he entered his competitive career last
fall n since then he has been constantly
and prominently before the public.
First it was a tank record that he es-
tablished for the fifty yards sprint, then
a defeat Of the speedy Marquard
Schwartz in a 100 yards race, then a VIC
tory in the national championships and
finally the winning Of a place on the
Olympic team. Hebner has a brillian
future before MIN. He has a stroke that
experts have pronounced as good as amy
seen IN this country. He is strong and
enduring and he has youth. IT should
be remembered that at the age of l6
Daniels had never beaten 1:0S for Toe
yards, and here we have a boy of the
age Who crawls his century under the
minute and goes his furlOngs we'll under
2:4O. Barring accidents. he should prove

Yankees in these events. The Americans
have hardly a man who could defeat the
first two, but with them out of 1t the
running jumps are at their mercy.
The American team will win. anyhow,
so that 1t will make little difference in
the result whether the Irishmen bolt or
not, except nat the margin of victory
would be greater. The chances are, how
ever, that rather than not compete at
all the Irish athletes will fall into line
when the time comes and work for Eng
land.

NEW RULES FOR BASKET BALL

NEW YORK. July 1.-THE collegiate
basket ball rules committee has made in
portant changes in the playing rules for
next season. With the design Of eli ~ninating
rough play, two officials. a referee and
an umpire. were determined upon. The
dribble was defined as a continuous ras-
sage Of the ball. and It was decided that
the ball must not remain motionless In the
hands OF a player after he has started his
dribble. II was further decided that a
player can shoot for a basket after a drlb-
BILE. This is a sweeping change, and one
calculated to make the game more popu'ar.
Further. as a penalty for rough playing. a
rule was passed disqualify ng any player
having five fouls called upon him.

Young lady distributed such litera-
ture regarding Umatilla county as

garding the irrigated districts of the
west end. She found great interest
in the west among eastern people, but
but was convinced that Oregon did
not receive the credit due.
Miss Barker has the highest prise
for her trip, and her treatment
among the eastern people. She re-
grets that inability to secure a great
er portion OF literature regarding her
home county prevented a wider dis
semilnation of its possibilities at the
points included in her trip.
Although a visitor in the heart of
Yankee land, Miss Barker found
eastern astuteness most marked in
her visit at Washington, D. c. In
that city the guide pointed out TO the
party the house which William How
ard Taft would occupy next year. In
order not to offend any political pre-
judices that worthy also exhibited to
the home which would house Will
liam Jennings Bryan. Neither edifice
was the White House. which leads
Miss Barker to think that Chafin may
be the winner.
