Mr.. Ryan in very interesting
manner told of the Olympic games OF
the past and present, particularly of
The 1924 meet in France. Dwelling
a bit on the history OF Olympic games,
he spoke OF the sports being handed
down from Greece, 2000 or more
years ago. lie spoke of tie cid cus-
toms and credited the Olynpic games
as being largely responsible for Greek
civilization. as diflirent arts were in
creased along with athletics. In The
early 91's young French baron had
a vision that the human race needed
something to keen ii from detcriorat-
ing and lie convinced several people
in France who helped him spread his
opinion. The first revival was in
1896 at Athcns. Mr.. Rvaa himself
had been present at four of The Olym-
piads, his first being the 1905 meet n
London He commented most pleas
antly upon the growing spirit of
brotherhood and friendliness which
existed between the contestants from
different countries The speaker
stated that every Olympic game had
been won by the Americans
Mr. Ryan reviewed the different
games, and credited stockholm With
having the most remarkable of all
tie Olympiads, although he said the
1924 meet At Paris was nearly the
equal of the Stockholm meet At
this meet AR Ryan said that tie
Americans wen practically every field

running Ire stated that the Ameri-
can participants conducted themselves
as a credit to the country they rep
resented. These teams in America
