SULLIVAN REPLIES H0TLY
To. HARRY WHIThEY's
CRITICISM
Declares Conduct of American
Team at Olympic Games
Was Credifabie

NEW YORK, July 1.-THE charges
made by Harry Payne Whitney of the
American polo team al banquet in
London that the conduct of the Ameri-
can Olympic team last year was dis
graceful have already created storm
OF protests, and James E. sullivan.
and United States commissioner to the
Olympic games, has issued a strong de-
NAL OF the charges.
Harry Payne Whitney is not in a
position TO know anything regarding
the persecution of our athletic repre-
sentatives and / am amazed at his ut
terances," said Sullivan. Our athletes
went TO England in face of almost
every sort of opposition. fair and unfair,
that the English officials could devise.
If We had taken meekly everything
that they tried TO do we would have
lost. We had to fight for our rights
that any real sport loving country
would have insisted on seeing given TO
a. visiting athletic team.
"As an evidence that we are in the
right the international committee, inn
mediately after those games. passed a
rule that an official stan made up from
the home country would never again
be tolerated in an Olympic meet.
I was present throughout the entire
meet and failed TO see anything in the
ordinary behavior OF our boys that
would warrant any unfavorable COM
ment on the part of Whitney or any
other individual. II Whitney knows of
any specific case of disgraceful con-
duct let him make il known and not
talk in generalities. If he will do so
will answer him and prove that he is
wrong. I will satisfy him and the
public that the conduct of the Ameri-
can athletes al the Olympic games was
all that could be desired, and also that
their department and acts, both on and
of the field. reflected great credit on
the American nation.
