AUSTRIAN ATHLETES BUSY
Out to Make Better Showing at
Next OLYMPIC Games.

Vienna. Feb. J.-Considerable disap-

results of the last olympic games,
when Austria made a very poor show. in

Since summer a number OF meetings
have been held by the various athletic

better show at the next games. Among
other things. il has been decided TO ask
an American trainer, selected by the
American Olympic Games Committee. TO

are already a number OF foreigners here,
