Olympics For Detroit

With the 1856 OympicS promised TO the United
States and the United States Olympic committee agreeing
on Detroit il appears fairly certain that the Motor City
will play 10 Of the largest events IN the world
In fact if European conditions become too strained,
the 1862 games already awarded 10 HelsnkI Finland,
may be switched here.
The certainty OF reviewing the 1856 spectacle has al
ready caused ubance and launched plans OF great
preparation.
And much preparation there will have to be, As
everyone knows an olympic stadium will have 10 be built
where the competitions be held. Also Olympic vii
lage where the thousands Of athletes will be housed Will
also have TO be provided.
This is an international affair bringing athletes and
their retnues from all the world. Good sportsman
ship and better relations between the various nations and
peoples are its aim
In addition making these physical preparations De-
troiters are have to that they make quite few
mental and spiritual preparations
Being host 70 such huge, magnificent spectacle as
the Olympica and the large nunbsr of people from all

And now tell him 10 re-
member this: The United
States Army trains its Off
GERS 10 lead IFS men In the
art OF killing without being
killed.
As an officer. he must first
be a teacher and as a teacher
officer. the Army will stress TO
him FIVE words which he will
learn 10 remember as long as
he lives.
Those FIVE words are;
Preparation. Expla atio n.
Demonstration. Application
and Examination.
The Army gives them TO all
its officers in that order. No
matter what arm or branch Of
the service he enters he VIII
find those FIVE words waiting
for him. They're the basic
ABC's for officers, the blue
print by which the Army pre-
psres IT'S officers TO prepare It's
men 20 e the most efficient
killers in the world.
1t seems so simple you might
wonder how a man can miss
out on such simple rules. But
more Of them miss the mean
ing of those Ave words than
grasp the understanding of
them and the officers corps
remains and always will re-
main select group.
Tell him 10 learn TO apply
the FIVE words 20 any plan of
killing the Army asks him TO
teach 20 its men. II works
like this.
PREPARATION: Prepare
yourself TO kill. That's a big
order but If Junior is going
10 be a soldier he must do IL.
EXPLANATION: He must
be able TO explain to his men
exactly how 70 kill and 10 an
swer questions on why kill
ling is necessary 10 any man
should ask. DEMONSTRA-
TON: The Army requires its
officers 10 be able 10 demon
strste how 10 kill BY actually
gong through the motors
You teach a man to run his
hayonet through anoincl man
but YOU must also show HIM
how 10 hurledlv pull il out of
his breast so he'll be ready for
the next bayonet thrust. AP-
PLICATlON: Junior must
learn and teach his men TO
apply.all the vast resources the
Army has az us command for
the use Of killing men. EX-
ANIMATION: Finally. Junior
must be able 10 examine and
test his men accurately and
scientifically so he can report
10 his superiors whether or
not, or exactly when he has
trained his men enough in the
motions Of killing that they
are actually ready 10 get out

the South on the slavery issue
but supported Douglas view
that the territories had the

BOLTED
On the seventh day of the

form was adopted by a vote
of l65, TO 1873. The delegates

The Democratic convention
reassembled in Baltimore on
June 10. The anti-slavery and
the pro-slavery factions re-
NAMED irreconcilable. During
stormy six-day session,
most of the Southern dele
gates bolted this convention,
and Douglas was nominated.
EMBITTERED
The boilers from the Charles
ton convention met in Rich
mond, organized informally
and awaited the results of
the Baltimore convention. The
Richmond convention recessed
until June 81. II nominated

embittered, and the Solid
South had wrecked the party.
The Republicans won the
election of 1860, and the
Democratic party did not re-
turn 10 power until twenty
four years later.
II a page from history of
the Democratic party Is not
