Hogarty, forme’ vf Lexington,Ky., and Chicago, coach of the “Brazilian track and field team. He is here with eight men who carty the ban ner of Brazil in the eighth Oly: the first time the country been represented in the classic track and field games. Hogarty used to be track trainer nt Duquesne university and after the Armistice was a Knights of Columbus athletic director in France. He went to St. Paulo. Brazil, three years ago as a pioneer in amateur sport in South America, engaged as athletic director for the Club Athletico Paulistano to teach Brazilian youth the science and bene: fit of American athletic methods. The prospect was. not too encour- aging when he arrived. The only sport practiced by Brazilians at the time was soccer football, promoted hy clubs and conducted tn much the same wa bush-league baseball at home. ‘Track and\ field athletics were unknown except through the movies. Schools and universities had no athletic recreations, and men never endulged in competitive run- ning for fun except at picnics, as at home, when a keg of beer used to be the prize. Football Enthusiasts. The only encouraging sign was the enthusiasm of the people over football, but football is a game not too well suited to the moderate cli mate of Brazil. Hogarty set out to develop a similar interest in ath letics that would better build up the youth. of the land. <A formidable undertaking where the games were not. understood or appreciated, and where the spirit of competitive play was equally foreign. ‘After three years he has brought eight of his best men to the Olym pic ‘games. He wanted to bring more, but funds were lacking: for the long journey. He is aware these men ‘may not break any world’s rec orfs, but he is confident they will do well, and certain that they will learn-much that will promote ath letics more speedily when they get home. Hogarty had great difficulty at Mirst in getting his men to discipline themselves in their personal habits It had been the custom in Brazil for football players to celebrate a vic- tory with a merry banquet, and this secmed to be a part of the sport Hogarty had to change the impres- sion.” He also had to instill the spirit of putting forth great effort, the will to go on when the body was tired. Runners Developing. “The first time I told a boy to run 8,000 metres,” Hogarty said, “he looked to me and said, ‘O, no, that's too far, I'll get all tuckered out.’ It took some driving at first, but they were quick to lehrn, and now they get’ out on the track and go ough their paces ike a bunch of - college boys. Slowly, but surely, Brazil is developing into an.athletic country.” Hogarty has been able to bufld a fine 400-met ack at St. Par interest in ic contests ing. There are six athletic clubs now established, and.Hogarty plans to. organize an athletic federation along the lines of the A. A. U. He is beginning work with the army, where all healthy boys of 19 and.20 have to serve two years, and, when he returns, plans to receive two qualified men from each army district and teach them the funda- mental’ principles of athletic con- tests so that they can return as trainers. Basketball, chiefly out- door, has already won favor and hes many devotees, and Hogarty has hopes of getting baseball estab lished. eng tba a veh a ee et UNION SERVICE SUNDAY NIGHT AT TABERNACLE A-union service will be held in the Presbyterian tabernacle on the corner ef South Durbin and East Sixth streets, next Sunday night at 8 o'clock.
