Brazil Invites
u. S. Athletes
Bv LAWRENCE s. HAAS


UNITED Press Staff Correspondent
RIO DE JANEIRo, (By MaiD.-
Amateur competitive athletic sports
have arrived in Brazil, and they have
come to stay. The new Brazilian
trait was brought out strongly dur
ing the past month, when the Brazil
ian athletics cleaned up in the entire
program of South American Sports
Confederation held here. Brazil was
returned champion in all events,
swimming, water polo, and assocla-
ton football, the national major
sport.
The yictors defeated the best sent
here by Argentina, Uruguay ana
Chile, and did not lose single foot
ball or water polo game or swimming
meet. In the water the Brazllians
out classed all competitors and for
mer crack American and British
swimmers are as good as any pro-
duced in the world.
On the football field, Brazil, after
hard struggle wrested the laureis
from the Uruguayans, twice South
American champions.
The most noteworthy feature OF
the series of sporting events was not
Brazils victory, but the great inter-
est taken in the sports by the people
of all ages.
The games were held on the great
field of the Fluminense Club. This
club is one of the largest athletic or
CARNATIONS on the continent. The
huge stadium seats nearly forty thou
sand people, and thousands were
turned away from at least four OF
the seven big football games OF the
series.
A hill, overlooking the playing field
was black with people, much like the
famous Coogan's Bluff of the old days
of the Polo Grounds of New York.
Twenty years ago outdoor sport in
Brazil did not exist, as it is known
and recognized in the United States
A few foreigners played tennis.
Members of the English colony play
ed cricket and little football, while
the handful of Americans spent
their holidays on the baseball dia-
mond, and there entertained the sal
lors from visiting Yankee ships.
Brazil is ambitious for its athlet.
les. The people are not satisfied with
merely staging a South American
championship tournament. They
want to make the next meeting Pan
American or even an internationa
one, open to the whole world. As
the first step o such a realization
Arnaldo Guile, director of the Flum
inense Club has asked the cooper
alton of the United States Ambassa
dor Edwin Morgan in transmitting ar
invitation to the Bethlehem Stee
) Works Football Club to send a team
, to Brazil, or to provide a team OF thu
best amateurs that can be secured
, in the United States to come dowr
and play the Brazilians. The Amer
leans are offered all expenses fol
the trip.

Mrs. S. L. Felts
Killed by Lightning

Johnson CITY, Tenn, July IL.
Standing in the doorway between
two rooms in her home on Fifth Ave.,
Carnegie, yesterday afternoon, Mrs.
s. L. Felts was killed by bolt OF
lightning that struck the chimney
ton and flashed out through the open
crate in the room below. She died
within ten minutes of receiving the
shock.
Notwithstanding the bolt left but
little trace, save for small quantity
of scattered SCOT on the feer, the full
electrical force seems to have fol-
lowed a draft of air in which she
stood at the time. She is said to have
been i'll for the past several days, and
was in a weakened condition, which
initiated against efforts to revive
her. Mrs. Felts was twenty-four
years of age and is survived by her
husband and small son.
JULY IS WAS ST. SMITHIN'S DAY
est. Smithin's day, if thou dost
rain for forty days it will remain;
st. Smithin's day, if thou be fair,
For fairly days twill rain as mair."
Oldest inhabitants say they recall
the exact year when the lines in the
oft-quoted lines above-anyway-
when it rained for forty days.
It is the beginning of "dog days.
Everybody knows what this means to
the small boy who goes swimming
during this period, what it is to the
infant that suffers from bee-stine
and what it means to the old-timers
that sit on the front porch and swat
the mosquitoes.

based on the declaration that
