 Boston won five games, and the sixth was an efeven-inning tie There was another off year in 1893.

EIaborating on an absurd story that appeared a month ago in Le Temps or Paris Brooklyn newspaper; yester- day printed a long story wherein 1t was said flames Kolehmainen of Fin land was brought to this country for the purpose of having him represent America in the Berlin Olympiad in 1916. The story said Kolehmainen was living in New York at the ex- and that that club paid his expenses to the recent national A. A. U- cham pTonshfps in Pittsburgh.
 The writer must have been labor1ng under a misa apprehension Only Amer lean citizens can represent the United States in an Olympiad, and KoIeh- mainen will not have been long enough in this country to become a citizen by the time of the Berlin Olympiad. Kolehmainen's expenses to the recent Pittsburgh meeting were of the Amateur Athletic Union. :
 In commenting the story last night. Terrence Farley, former chair main -of the Registration Committee of the Metropolitan Association and q prominent offical of the Irish American A. G., said. s5'
 w ere it not for the fact that the story reflects on amateur sport in America it would be absurd. It is be- yond me how the publicati ton of such n ridiculous yarn was allowed 4 five years to become a citizen Even if Kolehmainen intended to become an American it Would be impossible Tor hum to become one. in time for him to compete in the Berlin Olyrn- piad.
