Nearly 100000 Persons See
Opening Of Great Games
at London.

LONDON, July 1S.-In the presence
of three kings and many lesser royal
ties and before a crowd of nearly 100.
900 spectators, the Olympic games were
begun In the Stadium this afternoon in
q drenching rain.
While the rain married the ~brilliancy
Of the great International event 1t did
not lessen the enthusiasm, as the $500
athletes representing thirty nations
passed In review before King Edward
there was tremendous cheering.
The American team, made up OF
ninety finely trained athletes. and
which Is looked upon as the probable
winner OF first honors, headed the
parade.
The demonstrate accorded them al
most equallad that shown the English
team.
The original idea was to devote this
day entirely to the formal ceremony.
including a parade of the athletes be-
fore the King, but the committee In
charge of the games eventually deci-
ded to run off some of the preliminaries.
and the first heat OF the 1.500-meter
race will be started as soon as possible
after the formalities are ended.
The preparations are on a gigantic
scale. The Stadium will seat 63. 200
spectators and there Is room for %. 900
more, but no seats. By making use of
a strip of ground surrounding the
Stadium. standing room also can be

going to be held on Sunday nights will
afford a lot OF fun for the men and
women who can not go to the country
or water sides, but who will find money
and time to go to local sports.
Tigers Are Going nicely.
And, while talking about these Sun
LAY sports. II will not be out OF place
to say that this Tiger bunch is going
along nicely. On the road they are all
the time fighting and trying to bring
victory back to their burg. While In
Baltimore they demonstrated. much
against the wishes of the fans there,
that they r capable of putting UP a
championship game at any time. Tho
game Saturday was lost on the merest
f1uke. Frill pitched his usual good game,
but timely hits by the Orioles seemed TO
carry the game to the other side.
The season is half over just now and
the Tigers are still In the first division.
II they had the least kind of luck they
would be UP nearer the top than where
they stand today. But they are not
satisfied with the present position. and
before September rolls along they will
be much nearer the top. AS an aggre-
cation they are capable Of putting up
the best kind of ball and when they fall
down in a game 1t Is not the result Of
carelessness. They will be much higher
a month from now thar they are today.

AMERICAN ATHLETES CHEERED BY KINGS
AS THEY MARCH WITH OLYMPIC TEAMS

vide three athletic tracks, a swimming
bath M dressing rooms for 1000 COM
petitors. The turf track for hurdle
racing. the cinder path for running and
the concrete-banked track for cycling
have been tested and pronounced the
best in England. Several records
already have been broken on these
tracks, and It may be confidently pro-
dicted that more will go when the
chosen athletes of the world meet here.
AS was to be expected. some little
friction has arisen over the rulos
governing some of the contests. the
Americans have commended that they
ought to be permitted the privilege OF
digging a hole for the pole in the
vaulting competition. but the Amateur
Athletic Association. h rules or
which will govern the meeting, has
decided against this. To be compelled
at the last moment to adopt a new
method Of vaulting probably will go
hard against Gilbert, the American
vaulter. who holds the worlds cham
pionship and who recently made a
vault of 10 feet in practise.
The association also has decided
against the American protest In the
question of heat drawings. The Amer
lean committee pointed out that by
the method to be adopted 1t might
happen that all the athletes OF one
country would be drawn for the same
heat. which would be manifestly I'm
fair, but the association held that the
possibility of this was go remote that
IL need not be taken into considera-
ton. Slips, therefore, bearing the
names Of the various contenders, will
be drawn from a hat, with the object
of selecting the competitors in each
heat.
The sports are to last a fortnight
and will occupy the morning and AFTER
moor of each day. During the first lays

ROOT BEATS
OUT WILEY, THE
MESSENGER BOY

Eddie Root, the crack bicyclist,
transferred his track affections to the
Clifton Stadium yesterday and gained
thereby some change. Eddie appeared
on a motor mount, and was opposed
by George Wiley. the famous Syracuse
messenger boy, who made such a great
hit in the Madison Square Garden races
a veal ago. The spectators were trea-
ted to an exciting spectacle. Sonny
Briggs. who acted as pacemaker for
Root. had his leggings set on fire from
an escape from the plug fuse, and to
all appearances 1t looked as II Root
would be left, but, instead he pulled
away from his apparent hoodoo. and
before the race was finished Wiley was
out of it because of another accident to
his PAGER, whose pedal broke. and Root
finished half a lap ahead of the Salt
City man.
The other events on this new track
resulted as follows:
Fred Walker, Newark. first; Adams. Mont
clair, second; C. Georgi. Newark, third; Jo-
