IRELAND INTERESTED IN REVIVAL OF ANCIENT GAMES “OLYMPICS? OF ERIN TO BE HELD AGAIN NEXT AUGUST DUBLIN, April 3.—Great inter- est is being shown in the revival in Ireland of the Aonach-Tailltean, or ancient games of Tara. The Dail has unanimously voted substan- tial funds for thelr organization. ‘Tho idea is to hold the games near here next August at about the same time us the horse show and to make their program similar to, but moro extensive than, the Greek Olympics. There will be, for example, com- petitions in rowing, motorboat and motorcycle racing, yacht racing, step dancing and band competition, while essentially Irish pastimes will have the most prominent=place. It is expected that tho United States, Canada, Argentina, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand, as woll as Great Britain, will be represented in the international events. The definition of Irish com- potitors is stated to mean all ama- teurs whose grandparents on either aide were of Irish birth, or either of whose parents are of Irish birth. It fa intended to make the event triennial. The chief moving spirit im the cause has been J. J. Walsh, member in the Dail for Cork City and now Irish postmaster general. Hoe has stated ono of the objects to be that Ireland should be drawn closer to Hurope by occasional in- ternational meetings in tho capi- tals of the continent. But it {s Irish-American support that is principally looked for and an organizer has been appointed to look after the interests of the games in the Untted States, ada and Newfoundland. He Seamus Dobbyn, a native of Derry, who has Iived most of his life in Belfast, and has been a famous athlete tn the ranks of the Gaelic Athletic association. What the Olympic games were to the ancient Greeks the ‘Tailltean “Aonach” (fair) was to the Gaels of old. It was held at a place now called Teltown near Ceannanus Mor, about 30 miles northwest of Dub- lin. The place takes {ts name from ‘TaiNto, the foster mother of King Lagh who, greatly grieved at her death, had her buried at Teltown with great pomp and ceremony.

Lugh also ordered the fair and games to be celebrated périodical- ly in honor of his foster mother. The celebrated fairs of ancient Ireland were, {t is believed, held tn the vicinity of noted cemeteries and, so, most probably, had their origin in ancient funeral ceremonies. The Taffitean festival was cele brated at the beginning of Adgust and, in addition to the holding of contests of feats of strength, skill and endurance, there were military Wsplays, chariot races, horse races and musteal and poctical competi- tions. A great concourse of mer- chants assembled for trading pur- Poses. Many matters of national and logal importance were also decided at this festival. The annals of Troland give 1167 as the Jast year in which the gamos were held in the ancient style. The athletic con- tests, however, were continued down to a comparatively recent date. BRITISH TENNIS SCOPE LIMITED. LONDON, April 3.—Until lawn tennis {s cultivated among British boys to the extent ft is in the United States and Australia, declares a prominent writer, we can never feel hopeful about the return of the Davis cup to these shores. He cays that “even the churches” encourage the game in Australia, while inter-school matches are a feature of the summer term. The writer calls attention to the fact that the Australian stars, G. L. Pat- terson, J. O. Anderson, P. O'Hara ‘Wood and J. B. Hawkes all won the boys’ singles championship of their country. SKIRTS FOR HOCKEY SURPRISE ENGLAND. LONDON, April 3—Whrn a field hockey team composed or American strl players appeared some time ago on English fields in skirts there was no small comment among the spec- tators, since a tunic costume is usual this side of the Atlantic, The matter was then dismissed as just another of the “different ways they have of doing things in America.” Now the truth has been revealed, that the girls from the states adopt- | ed skirts nolely to avoid offending the supposed suaceptibilities of the English.
