can team that will compete in the

will be held sometime il June or July,
but the definite date will not become
known until the revised program Of
the Olympic games is received by the
American committee. The Saturday

will very probably be chosen for the
national games.
1t is understood that each country
will be permitted to enter six rep-
!resentatives in the Olympic events.

actually compete. The rule in the
past permitted the naming Of twelve
entrants and the competition Of seven
men. But. entrants for the marathon
run will be unlimited.
