section of our population showed a
natural tendency to divide its athle-
tics between the great majority, the
fans" on the one hand, and the
actual teams on the other. The goal
was to make participants of all.
There were gathered in the sum-
mer of 1917 in the 10 officers train
ing camps those who were to be
junior officers. Here the Y.M.C.A.
sent some of its foremost physical
directors. They were pioneers,
thrown largely on their own re-
sources, but pioneers in fertile terri
tory where they won from future
officers that cooperation which ulti-
mately produced the gigantic total
of 75,000,000 participants in various
games at home and overseas.
With congenial occupation pro-
vided for leisure time, the great
majority of soldiers freely chose
it in preference to indulgences. They
found contests and games so ar
ranged that not the picked men of a
group but all the men were matched
against all of a similar group.
The major results were concrete.
They contributed directly and inn
mediately to the primary task. They
helped to make good soldiers. They
increased physical agility, stimulated

strengthened elements essential to
civic and military efficiency.
The most trying period for our
army in France followed the armis-
tice. The words, I'VE want to go
home," then gained real meaning.
The real job seemed finished. Here
again athletics proved of extraordi-
nary service. Features of that time
were the building of the Pershing
Stadium near Paris and the holding
there of the great games which have
had a volume devoted to them

There were many other forms of
entertainment. One phase has had

shows. At the height of its activi-

200 soldier actors in this organiza-

The moment that the young men of America began to be drawn
