Athletic Federation was engaged today
with the most difficult part of its task,
that Of formulating a programme for in

games. as the delegates of various nations
foresee special advantages in the inclu-

The committee this morning agreed upon
a tentative schedule eliminating the
stsnding broad jumps. limiting shot put
ting and javelin and discus throwing to
the best hand only, inserting the 56 pound
weight and the 400 metre hurdles and re-
tanning the walking events, but the strug-
gle will be resumed at the general meet
ing.
The United States Jared well in the COM
mittee report because that country no
longer is supreme In standing jumps, to
which the Swedes and Germans objected
to, referring to them as "circus stunts"
and the Americans have by far the best

throwing.
The Scandinavians are insistent in de-
harding the retention of ambidexterious
shot putting, javelin and discus throwing
IN which events they excel, and the Brit
lsh representatives have adopted SINH
lar attitude in their request that walking
events be included in the programme.
