WILL SEND TEN ATHLETES.
Irish-American A. C. Will Be Well
Represented at Athens.

NEW YORK, December 27-The Irish
American Athletic Club has decided to
send at least ten men, headed by Melvin
w. Sheppard. the hero of several Olym-
pic series, to represent it in the Athenian
Olympic games to be held in Athens dur
ing May Of next year. This team is ex-
pected to form the nucleus of a squad
from all over the United States to wear
the shield in competition against the
picked men of other nations.
Sheppard, the present track and field
captain Of the Irish-Americans, was the
first man chosen to make the trip, and
the athletic committee of the club is
said to be unit on the proposition that
the best of the athletes Of the club should
abstain from any serious competition this
winter in order that they may be fit for
the Athens invasion
1t is expected that men from Boston
Chicago and San Francisco will be in
cluded in the makeup OF the American
team the expenses Of the men to be met
BY the clubs they represent. In this
manner the United States will be ena bled
to make a good showing.
