Antwerp, Aug. 1.-THE American
athletes who will compete in the
500 and lOO-meter race have I'm
ished their training and are now
ready for the first heats, which start
on the opening day of the Olympic
games.
Things all around are taking on
better shape here now. Many new
arrivals were out today.
The Swedish contenders made
their appearance with a large team,
as also did the South Africans
Ernie Hjertberg. the Swedish
trainer. seemed most pleased with
the showing OF his men and hurled
a mild def in the direction of the
American camp when he declared
that the United States can expect
more competition than they have
had in any other olympiad
Hjertberg has several good men
who will bear watching by our ath-
letes. Bolin, his middle distance
runner, is going in good shape and
may prove dangerous in the 500
metres. l ran against Bolin in 1916
and know he cannot be held too
highly.
Sweden's Pole yaulter.
Sweden also has a pole vaulter
who is clearing the bar easily at
twelve feet in practice and looks
good for thirteen under pressure.
Rudd was out this morning with
