In regard to the entry of an Ameri-

ule, Maloney said:
During the last Olympic games
America was accused of having en-
tries only in events where she was al
most sure to excel. The sending of a
rugby team to Antwerp especially as
rugby is essentially a foreign pastime,
would tend to set at rest any such fall
