Women Competed With
Men Ages AGO in Greece

And this circle is really q picture in
little of that greater cycle of Develop
ment in health of the entire Caucasian
world. Ages ago women competed with
men in competitive games. That was In
ancient Greece, where everything for
time seemed to be done wisely. But
in later day women, chained to their
households. victims of peculiarly
cloistral environment. became more
artificial than even their men folks.
Pallor was believed to be desirable, q
mark of aristocracy. Work was not to
be thought of outside the home, for
women of means
Then one day some woman or other
became discontented with her lot. She
desired elbow room. She was permitted
TO 60 horseback riding on some orna-
mented avenue, or perhaps play croquet.
But she wanted TO do more. She saw
what Il gay time the young men had,
and she was stirred by a spirit Of envy
and rivalry. So she took long walk
in the country. 1t was courageous
beginning and she returned to her ba-
ronial home quite fatigued.
Her parents were shocked that she
eIertcd herself so. And the neighbors.
too, were shocked because she took 40
much exercise.
And It must have been about that
time that William Wordsworth heard Of
this young woman who so evidently out
RACED convention. For In 1901 he wrote
poem and he entitled It:
TO A YOUNG LADY
Who TYas Been Reproached for Taking
Long Walks In the Country.
And the poem read:
Dear child OF Nature, lot them Satli
-Thsre is n nest In Green dole,
a harbor and hold:
Where thou, WUo and Friend, shdt
see
Thy opn heart stirring days, and be
4 light to p0ung and old.
There, heating as a shepherd boy
And trcadiug among doWers OF JOY
Witch at no season fade,
Thou, ,chiIe thv babes around thee cling
Shall shOW as hO'c diptne thing

TIM thoughts and feelings shall not die.
Nor leare thee, ,ohen gray hairs arc
nigh,
A melancholy slave;
But an old age serene and bright, W
And lOrcly as u Lapldnd night,
Shall lead thee 10 thy grave.
This poem undoubtedly turned the
trick. The championing, of this manly
girl, couched In the words of an hon.
ored poet, was doubtless convincing.
Perhaps 1t wasn't But whatever In
spircd it and whatever it's effect, the
poem remains significant today, as IL

She holds the record in the three mile
swim, time 43 minutes and l3 seconds.
The former mark of III minutes and Il
seconds was made by Miss Ftheldra
Bleibtrey, Of the New York Women $
Swimming Association.
In 1919, Miss Uhl captured the 100
yards championship for women in
minute and 18 seconds.
In the trials at Antwerp she broke
the Olympic record in the 300-met
race. just before the finals, she was
taken i'll with fever, and warned not to
compete under any circumstances. But
because she had been depended upon
to win second or possibly even first
place in the finals, she decided to take
a chance. Pluckily she swan with tho

She collapsed at the finish, and had to

Physical Directors See
Great Hope for Future

And physical directors throughout
the country look to the future with
a great deal Of hope. They tell us
that in the golden days of Greece
there were many examples Of
women as physically powerful as
men, and that the Hellenic women
contested with men in public games,
equally splendid in strength, skill
and that more intangible quality Of
sheer sportsmanship.
And these experts ask: "Why
isn't it possible that this merry old
earth will again witness crop of
twentieth century Atalantas, who
will bring the blush of impotent
envy to the cheeks of even that fair
daughter of old mythology who lost
her best-known race only because
her masculine opponent stopped to
the wiles Of the serpent of Eden
and used an apple-nay! he had to
use three apples, Atalanta was so
swift-and golden ones at that"
Women athletes are not only going
to win races like men, but they are
going to wear clothes like men In
which to win the races.
Modern civilization forces women to
b more artificial than men; forces
them into the indoor habit Of life,
:sy' Harry J; McGrath. who directs
Curtis Country Club. "And with that
burden the young feminine aspirants
with bloomers and MILDLY blouses.
Women need track trunks and jerseys.
and soon they will all be wearing
them."
The average MILDLY blouse weighs
three and a half pounds, boomers
weigh four pounds. In addition, heavy
stockings, gradually growing into dis
use with the increased interest Of girls
and young women in sports, are bound
to the legs with tight elastic.
And along with tho heavy band
that holds up the old-fashioned bloom
srs. where Is there any freedom Of
moyement?' asks Director McGrath.
"lt's like hanging an anchor on an
elent. cared shell!
Heretofore girls have been wear
ing sneakers instead Of spiked running
shoes. And they've slipped and slith-
cred as though they were plowing
through the mud of 'Wipers.' And yet
some folks demand bloomers and the
rest of these intolerable inconvenience
And they want them for girls, only
because they haven't been used to girls
wearing anything else. Certainly there
Is nothing immoral about track trunks
