quietly in Belfast with a suspension
of all business, and closing of
schools. Many passed the day
motoring or hunting. and there were
a number of small social affairs,
while the Armistice ball given in the
evening by Frank Durham Hazeltine
Post, American Legion, drew a large
crowd from this city and the sur
rounding towns. The affair was a
cabaret with concert prior to the
dancing. 1t was most enjoyable
and we'll patronized entertainments

Olympic Squad of 422
Athletes Is Greatest
U. S. Ever Assembled

New York, April 17.-Amer-
ica's representation in the 1924
Olympic games consists of 422
athletes in twenty different
branches of competition, the great
est aggregation of talent ever as
sembled by this country for a<pro
gram of international sports
events.
These figures, which reveal an
undertaking Of even greater pro-
portion than originally anticipated,
were made public today by the
American Olympic committee to
emphasize the necessity of imme-
diate response to its appeal for
fund of S3j0,000 properly TO equip.
transport and care for the men
and women who will make up the
various squads.
Originally it was expected the
team, would consist of about 800
athletics and estimated financial
requirements were based on this
number. but, with the increases
now planned in several units and
the addition of the others. the en-.
tire venture may require well over
100000. officials believe.
The crisis in financial affairs
Of the Olympic committee has dis
closed that within the next few
weeks approximately 500, 900
must be raised to reach the orig
inal goal set.
Five units of the American
Olympic team already have en-
barked, including those in the four
branches of winter sports compe-
tition held in January and the
Rugby football squad, which left
last week.

Question-Whcn did Babe Ruth
get into the game last season? How
many homo vuns did he make? What
was his salary and bonus for each
home run and his percentage?
Answer-Ruth was in the game
all of the season and made Al home
runs. No percentage is figured on
home runs. Have no knowledge of
his salary and doubt very much that
he was paid a bonus for home runs.
1t is capital story but if it is true
there never was another baseball con-
tract like it on earth.
