Swedish Olympians

Chicago, April 10.-At least one
foreign team of athletes Is assured for
the American Olympic games which
will be staged or the lake front June
% to July 6 this summer. Yesterday
Director General Everett c. Brown
was notified by c. s.. Peterson. presi-
dent of the Swedish club in this city,
that the latter would guarantee the
expenses Of all Swedish point win
ners in the Olympic games from Swe-
den to New York, the local commit
tee paying the fares from the east
here.
It did not take long for the COM
mittee to agree to the proposition and
these athletes are now assured. The
announcement of Mr.. Peterson's offer
was made at the directors meeting
yesterday.
According to Mr.. Brown, this is
only a starter. Now that a beginning
has been made in this direction the
local committee will redouble their
on their prize winners. MI. Brown
believes that there are many patri-
otto citizens born abroad who will
come to the front with offers similar
to MI. Peterson's.
The general scheme is in line with
the original proposition made to
bring yer all Olympic point winners
to the big games at Grant park. II
conditions warrant the local COM
mittee may see their way clear to
aid in the expenses Of getting the
athletes here. but this. Of course. will
depend on the amount collected for
the games.
