OLYMP|CS NOW
Bic BUSINESS
VENTURE
Holland May Have to With
draw Bid Owing to Stu
pendous Enterprise

Sport has become so highly spe-
cialized and overorganized that the
Olympic Games have become a big
business venture. Holland was In
line for the renewal of the games
in 1928, but when the Hollanders
realized the magnitude Of the affair
they were afraid that they might
have to let it pass on to another
country. France started four years
ago to prepare for the games, and
even then did not work out the
great possibilities the affair carries.
The 1928 games may come to the
United States in the event of Hol-
land withdrawing it's claim. Los
Angeles is anxious for the big
event and a year ago sent a reDre-
sentative abroad with the offer.
While New York would be the place
where the Olympics could be de-
veloped into a stupendous business
venture, the Coast will bid high
for the meet. New York won out
against a big field for the Demo-
cratic Convention and may make a
strong bid for the Olympics four
years hence.

ANOTHER ERICKSON FOR
w. AND J. GRID ELEVEN

Washington and Jefferson is to
have another Erickson. Graduate
Manager r. NJ. Murphy dropped this
bit of news of interest to followers
of football.
Erickson I'd has Meyer as a first
name, and he is a brother of Harold,
the famed Minnesota Flash" who,
for four years as member Of w.
and j. elevens, ranged as one Of
the greatest backfield stars of the
country, and performed gridiron
feats that thrilled football fans from
coast to coast.
Tipping the scales at 1855 pounds.
Meyer carries almost the same
weight as his brother, Is built along
similar lines, said to be just as fast,
and has made name for himself
as a backfield star in Minnesota
scholastic circles.

Comiskey, too. is in baseball, but
not as a player.
Somehow it doesn't work.
Here's Sam Jones' theory: Base
ball players force baseball upon
their children" Sam says. "They
start them to playing too early.
And they keep them at it too
steadily. The result is injured
muscles. battered ligaments and gen.
eral weakening. The youngster who
starts playing baseball too young
and continues playing too steadily
will never be a big Lacquer. He'll
be burned out before he attains the
size and age necessary for big
league play"
WalIy Pipp, also the father of a
prospective first baseman, holds
the same view. And it sounds
reasonable enough. Certainly
there is a paucity of examples of
sons who have made good.
Brothers in baseball, however,
are not infrequent. The Meusel5
are the best known. The Barnes
three of them-also have attained
much fame. The Gastons are an
other example. And the Cooneys.
And in amateur sport it is even
| more noticeable. The Poes made
Princeton football history through
long period of years. Out in Salt
Lake City the Romney family
eight boys in all-made even greater
history through the Rocky Noun
tain section.
The Callahan brothers-Tim and
Mike--are examples. And there are
| scores of others.
Athletic greatness, perhaps, is in
| the blood.
But it can't he forced. It's a
| natural thing. Brothers come and
90 and attain athletic greatness.
But in big league baseball, at least,
| few sons are able to carry on the
records established by their fathers
| before them.
And the same rule, it seems,
holds, too, in professional boxing.

Young Mr.. Archdeacon, of the

Stallings has been insisting that
Archdeacon would come through,

not. Every time that some Chicago
man mentioned Archdeacon as a
possible chunk Of success for the

world that Archdeacon was too light,
or something like that. Stallings
answered them ell.
Unofficial batting averages show
that Archdeacon has batted 1913 in
