nifty to watch or play in a special
medal play tournament which is now

pected to be on hand.
A committee of the lady members

American Wins Marathon
Race In Great
Finish

LONDON, Eng, July "a. - 1t
would be no exaggeration in the
minds of any of the 100000 specta-
tors who witnessed the finishing
struggle of the Marathon race at the
Olympic arena today to say that 1t
was the most thrilling athletic event
that has occurred since that Mara
thon race in ancient Greece. where
the victor fell at the goal and, with
n wave of triumph. died.
Today the Italian, Dorando. tot
tered into the stadium, fell exhaust
ed before his full course was run,
arose and staggered across the line,
assisted by officials of the games.
Then he collapsed, was carried from
the track on a stretcher and nearly
paid with his life for his gameness.
But the assistance given him at the
end cost him the coveted victory and
the race was given to the sturdy
American. Hayes. who came to the
goal on his own legs.
The veteran athletes or Europe,
America, Africa, and Australia who
have seen the greatest struggles of
every sort on land and water for ath-
letic supremacy declared that there
was nothing comparable to the great
race today within their memories or
in the other Olympiads since the
modern cycle of these began.
It was spectacle the like of which
none living had ever seen and none
who saw expect to see repeated. The
race itself, with So best men win
moved from the runners Of four con-
tinents competing; the arena where
1t was finished in the presence of an
enormous cosmopolitan assemblage,
with the Queen of England, the roy
al representatives of several nations,
and hosts of finely dressed men and
women from the most fashionable
circles of Europe, as well as several
thousand Americans, and the dramat-
ic and exciting denouement at the
end combined to make a historic day.
