Historic March of Nations Finds 5,000 Athletes Carry- ing Colors NATIONS FOLLOW GREEKS Bud Houser and Johnny Weis- muller Bear Standards of | United States | BY LOUIS P. LOCHNER (Associated Press Staff W Amsterdam, Holland, July — (AP)—The ninth Olympiad of the| modern era was opened this after- noon by Prince Consort Henry of The Netherlands on behalf of Queen! Wilhemina. : Athletes of forty-seven countries, a record in Olympic history, filed be- fore this Mecklenburg Duke upon} whom, in the Queen's absence, fell the honor of representing the! ancient royal house of Orange-| Nassau. : s Presenting a colorful picture in|! variegated sport costumes, the| world’s premier athletes stood at attention as the historic national! anthem, “Wilhelmus Van Nassauen” ‘was struck up by the Royal Military and Marine bands and sung by a massed chorus of twelve hundred Hollanders. As the clock approached 2 p. m., the diplomatic box, next to that oc- cupied by members of the royal party, began to fill, among the for- eign representatives being the American minister, Richard M. Tobin, the ministers or charges of Argentina, Chile, Cuba, H: |, Max- ico, Panama and Uruguay. Carriages Carry Celebrities The court carriage bore Queen Wilhelmina’s master of the house- hold and then followed Prince Henry’s gala vehicle. The proces- sion was closed by carriages bearing his aides. No sooner was the royal party seated than the historic march of the nations into and around the stadium be; Almost 5,000 athletes and officials marched by in the course of a parade lasting a full hour, each country headed by one of the na- tional colors and another bearer of a standard on which was inscribed the name of the country. They entered by the marathon gate, opposite the royal box, marched around the stadium, lowering flags in salute as they passed the prince, and on completion of the march formed columns in the center of the arena behind their respettive stand- ards, facing the royal stand of honor. This procession was headed by the Greeks as originators of the Olym- pic idea. They were followed by other nations in the order of the Dutch alphabet, America being 42nd ae the Dutch themselves last as josts. Prince Opens Meet The prince rising, used the old formula: “In the name of Her Majesty the jueen I declare the opening of the lympic games of 1928 celebrating the ninth Olympiad of the modern era.” His words, like previous addresses, were made audible to the whole audience by loud-speakers. Scarcely had they reached the ears of his hearers when there was a blast of trumpets, the roar of cannon. Pigeons were released, carrying the flag of each participating nation to the four winds and the Olympic flag slowly and majestically was hoisted on the main flagpole. International and Dutch commit- tees now gave way to flag and standard bearers of the nations among whom were Bud Houser, dis- cus star, and Johnny Weismull ppistic speedster, representatives | of the United States. HUGGINS GLAD | AS ‘CY’ MOORE | STEPS ON DUTY’ New York, July 28. ileey Moore is back in shape and Miller Huggins, manager of the New York Yankees, ‘0 Huggins, Moore's return to form far eclipsed all other features of the Yankees’ recent home stay that conclusion takes into con- sideration that his pitchers were going great, the Babe was hitting pln, of homers and the club was locking off the western clubs practically every day. reason of Huggins’ glee is that he knows the value ofa relief man able to stop the opposition when the starring pitcher weakens. And then the world series is getting nearer. fi “You know it is great to have a ‘pitcher in the bullpen who can step i in and stop a team when it starts to hit,” he said here just before the Yankees left on a road trip. how good my starting bitchers are my sft ‘ing pitchers are, they're Bound to have to go out some days and then Cy can step in and do his stuff.
