letes for Olympic Games.

Mike Murphy. the veteran penn train-
or, has been chosen trainer n Matt
Halpin, captain of die New York Atn.
Of the American team which will take
part in the olympic games at stockholm
next summer. This action was taken at
the meeting Of the Executive COMMITTEES
Of the American olympic COMMITTEES At
the N. Y. A. C.
The committee decided to hold three
sets Of "try-outs'' from which to select
the team. James f.. Sullivan was
unanimously chosen as selecter OF the
men. The try-outs will be held in Bos-
ton. Chicago and San Francisco on the
same day. What the date will be was
not definitely settled u the COMMITTEES
| did not wish to conflict with the inter-
collegiate championships which will be
held on the last Friday and Saturday In
| May. The try-outs will probably be held
one week before or one week after the
college championships. d.,
Besides the regular tryouts It was
| decided to hold separate tryouts for the
pentathlon and the decathlon. the au
| around contests which will be held N
Sweden. The former will be held In
| Boston. Chicago and San Francisco on
April Il and the latter in the same
cities on April Is and 10. 4
The wrestling tryouts will be held
| early in the spring at either Chicago or
ST. Louis. To decide those who will
make up the swimming team the com.
mittee declared that the inner OF the
National A. A. U. and the intercollegiate
championships will make up tho team.
This decision was made because the
committee feared that the weather
would be too cold In the early spring
t. hold tryou,s in the open waters.
