The Olympic games date hack
to the days of the empires of
ancient Greece and Rome.
The 6rst OIympiad was held
776 b. c. The name comes from
the site on which the games were
held - Olympia in Ellis, not n
city, hut n small plain In the dis
trict of Pisatis, Greece.

one event the foot race- The
winners reward WINS purely one
of honor. A garland of wild olive
was the victor's prize. His statue
was erected In the AItis and his
name given the Olympic period
Of four years in which he
triumPhed.
According 10 historians, the
games were discontinued after
3a3 oIynpiads had been held be-

The meeting at the Munsey Build
ing last night for the purpose of
arranging a post-season series of
games for the championship of the
District was decidedly a success.
A large gathering of managers
and representatives of teams and
leagues discussed plans. 1t was de-
cided to play two series of games,
one between independent mines and
one between organized league teams.
The series for independents will
start August 16 at Union Park,
and is to be played on the down
and-out proposition. There will be
twelve teams competing in the
first series, and the winners in six
organized leagues will fight it out
in the other, for which a date will
probably be chosen Monday night
August 10, at the Terminal Y. NJ
c. A. headquarters.
After the completion of the two
series there will be another series
staged between the winners.
The league teams will operate
under the rules of the Amateur
Baseball Association. The follow
ing rules were drawn up last night
for the governing of the indepen-
dents:
Each team must deposit $40 as
a forfeit to cover the expense of
promoting the games. This $40 is
to be forfeited when the team fails
to show in the field.

STAGE POST SEASON SERIES WINS WOMEN CLASSY PLAY AT SEABH
There Nothing in a Name! Absolutely Nothing!

Selecting a team of mermaids TO
represent this country at Antwerp
was a delicate matter. For IL
America has anything to brag oil
it's her girl swimmers.
The balmy Pacific Coast. with It's
long beach season, and the Atlantic
Ocean sprays in the East with the
Great Lakes sandwiched in between
for training fields, our fair girl
swimmers are countless
But the selection of our water
nymphs reveals the fact that our
best speeders have very effeminate
names.
For instance, there are three
Helens, two Irenes, and two, AAeens
on the team. Besides these, other
names run thusly: Frances, Thelma,
Betty, Ethelda, Eleanore, Charlotte
and Margaret. 1t sounds like they
were the kind who would enjoy
walking up and down the beaches
without going near the ocean
sprays.
But what's in name? Abso-
lutely nothing in this case, for
they're all record holders of, some
kind in the mermaid art.
Miss Moses is Honolulu girl.
She's sprinter. Miss Payne
learned to do fancy dives at Port
land. Ore. Miss Allen is a Los An
geles girl. She's paying her own
expenses over with the Olympic
girls and she has excellent form in
diving. Miss Meany is a New
Yorker She dives beautifully.
But the real little champion OF
the entire galaxy of water per-
formers is the 13-year-old Aileen

Her weight is but the tiny sum of
seventy-fve pounds. Yet Aileen is
