Bonhag. Joseph Bromilow, Jr.; Dan
Kelly, j. b. Sullivan and Lee Talbot
The arrival of the two big liners
practically was the last race of the
Olympic championships. The athletes
on the two steamers were more than
anxious TO see which got in first and
ii was q sort OF ocean race--a hitting
climax to the great Olympics.
Long before the arrival OF the
steamers both pier As and 81 were
lined with friends OF the boys. =. j.
Conway. president OF the Irish-Ameri-

Mr.. Conway intended 10 go down the
bay 10 meet the boys. but found IL i'm
possible owing 10 the difference in the
time OF the arrival.
The heroes got a grand welcome
home All were glad TO get back and
pleased TO think that a grand recep-
ton awaited them by the whole or
New York city.

Doctor Said SNeivm Sheppard
Was a Wreck; Won SNarathon
BY CLARENCE CULLEN.

BY the way, did YOU know that
Sheppard, our biggest winner III the
Olympic games. and the man who at
tracted the most attention outside OF
little HAYES. was examined for = cop
billet over here before he went TO
England, and that at the very tine he
was competing in the big events and
winning EN-, too hands down, he was

other things that | can't remember the
names or? Uh-huh Said the man was
really in very precarious condition
y'know. and that he wouldn't possibly
be able To perform the duties or a
policeman on account or the whole
slew and slather OF disabling diseases
from which he was suffering on the
very day that the police surgeons
gave out the result of their analysis
OF the examination they'd made OF
Sheppard before he went away. why,
he was winning that S0O-mete: race
like Colin beating lot OF land.crabs
Al the races.
It's a wonder the police surgeons
didn't make good JOB of II and tell
us that Sheppard was suffering from

however. he won all OF those big
things over yonder across the sea.
why. some kind OF little word went
out from a source heap higher thar

like that, and It'll surprise the folks
around here heap II, inside OF 4

higher-ups-a police lieutenant, at
least.

already from all over the country TO

Maybe Gov. Hughes himself will come
down to look the thing over And
then, again. maybe he won't. II he
doesn't II will be solely because the
state OF feeling against him by the
race-track mob is such that they
might possibly seize upon his pres
ence here at such an event to make
a riotous and insulting demonstration
against him.

MOTOR PARK WAY

When Mr-W, &C -McAdoo,- second
vice president OF the Automobile Club
OF America, and a member Of the
board OF directors OF The Long Island
Motor Parkway, denies the current
statement that the Parkway would ex.
clude from It's course any manufactur-
err. owner. or driver of cars dlsqual-
flied by the American Automobile as
ISOLATION under whose auspices the
forthcoming Vanderbilt Cup Race is
TO be conducted.
This is an error" he said. The
Long Island Motor Parkway is AN EN-
tirely independent organization and is
not allied with the A. A. A. nor with
the Automobile Club of America, ana
is taking absolutely no part IN the
controversy between these two organ
izations.
The Long Island Motor Parkway
is commercial enterprise, building
a high for automobiles. for the pur-
pose OF permitting the use OF such
highway by all automobilists who pay
the regular tolls and operate their ma
chimes in accordance with It's rules.
II will rent to any club or associa'
ton the privilege OF conducting events
on the Motor Parkway and tho clun
or association conducting such events

self is concerned, IL will not take part
in airy controversy. Clubs, associa-
