The action of the German Imperial
Olympic Committee in changing il,

m.itee for B1dily Exercises has
aroused much speculation among
among athletic authorities through

opinion that the move on the part
OF the German committee is an in
timation that Germany will not com
pete in thise international sports af-

plans considered more necessary and
pressing at this time in Germany
than consideration Of future Olympic

not deter hundreds of patriotic New York
ers from iourneyine to Huntington. l.. l..

Cross pageant at Rosemary Farm. An
amphitheater seating 40G0 persons was
for the occasion and the advance
sale of tickets Indicated that there would
be no vacant seats. Probably never before
in the history of the metropolis has an
affair of this kind been arranged on such
an elaborate scale. Without question
nothing of the kind given before has ever
had such a large humble rof distinguished
participants. Included among the per-
formers were virtually all of the famous
actors and actresses now appearing IN
New York. or within a days ride of the
city, with numerous stars from motion
pictures and grand opera thrown in for
good measure.
The idea if the pageant originated with
Henry =. Dawson, chairman of the Red
Cross war council. and il was arranged
as the personal offering If the men and
women of the stage to the cause of the
Red Cross. The entire proceeds of the per

japanese Give Literally

The most notable example of sacri-
fee reported in the local Red Cross
drive was met with Friday afternoon
by a team composed of F. w. Buff,
Kenneth Mckay and M. Yasui, the
latter Japanese merchant, who while
calling on Japanese berry growers Wis.,
tied the place of S. Sumoge. AS was
explained by Mr.. Yasui, this Nippon
ese rancher, has recently played in
hard financial luck. He has been ill
himself and has all but lost the little
ranch he is tilling. Despite all this
and the need of he and his wife to
feed and clothe 10 small children,
Sumoga responded with $5. The men
frankly told him that they believed he
was exceeding his ability to give and
urged him to reduce his donation to 81
but the Japanese man lifted his tired
shoulders and with dignity replied:
Gentlemen, l would feel dishonored
to take back any of the money. The
gift makes me happy. | only wish
that l could give $780,"
Japanese cash contributions will
reach approximately $3.50. No Nip
ponese rancher visited have given less
than SIS. The list was headed by the
merchant member of the soliciting
team who gave 500.
