FLOTSAM AND JETSAM FROM
WORLD OF AMATEUR SPORT
BY DANIEL.

st. Louis practically has relinquished
the national track and field champion
ships of the Amateur Athletic Union,
which II was scheduled to stage next Au-
gust. Thomas Watts, president Of the
Western Association. has sent word
here that unless the Red Cross desired
to take over the meet and finance It st.
Louis would be unable to go through with
the programme. Watts holds that most
of the star athletes would not make the
trip to the Mound City and that fnanc-
ing the meet under present conditions
would be hazardous venture.
In addition to giving up the national
games st. Louis also has permitted the
national championship ten mile river
swim to go to Cincinnati. The old Mis-
souri, A. G. originated the river event,
which is the most famous contest in the
A. A. U. swimming list. The old trophy
was won outright by Mike McDermott
last year and none of the st. Louis
clubs wanted to put up a new one. The
heat appears to have hit ST. Louis rather
early this year.
The refusal Of St. Louis to stage the
games will be hailed with delight by
Eastern athletes. for competing on the
banks of the Mississippi in August Is not
the most salubrious thing in the world.
1t looks very much as II the games will
be contested in this city.
