Stockholm, July n.-As expected, the
Olympic games proved a failure from a
financial point of view.
Stockholm's experience was similar to
that of London during the coronation,
the Swedish foreign press printing stories
OF prohibitive prices asked for accommo-
dations at hotels and apartment houses
here, with the result that the crowd
stayed away. this despite the efforts of
the management Of the games to coun-
teract the newspaper reports by extern
sive advertising. As a matter Of fact
there were plenty Of rooms at reasonable

Yard in Philadelphia, would like to oook
several games with the strongest clubs
in the District, none barred.

Medicos last year in the Marquette
League, and won the pennant Since
taking the Sailors in hand, Manager
Collier has whipped the bunch into a
mighty good ball club, and is after a
series of games In Washington.
This is a good chance for some strong
amateur club to book the Sailors here
for a Sunday game, and while nothing
cefinite is known, there Is chance to
see them in action against the Cornell
Tigers at Capital City League Park in
the near future. Manager Cornell has
not been approached in the matter, but
when he learns that the Sailors issue
a sweeping challenge, he will hardly let
II go by unheeded.
Manager Collier may be reached at
Z. S. S. Indiana.

told women who found her there that
she had started to the station to go to

The FIRST game between the old-timers

expected that a large crowd will find
time to wander northeastward for the

will feel the results Of the efforts after
SO long a layoff, the scorer and the UNI

Should Car defeat Adams in the sec

for the gonfalon. Manager Snyder will
