BY the 2ssociated Press. PARIS, June 26.—Brig. Gen. Charles Hitchcock Sherrill, American diplomat and writer, died suddenly last night of a heart attack at his Paris home. He' was 69. Gen. Sherrill had resided in Paris since retiring as Ambassador to Turkey in 1933. He was United States Min- ister to Argentina from 1909 to 1911, when he declined to become Ambas- sador to Japan because of ill health and left the diplomatic service, to which he did not return until he took the post at Istanbul in 1932, Gen. Sherrill, a noted track athlete, originated a series of international interuniversity track athletic matches, the first between Yale and Oxford in 1894. He was s member of the Execu- tive Committee of the International Olympic Sports Committee and at one time was chairman of the Aviation Commission of the New York Chamber of Commerce. Gen. Sherrill was recalled today as | one of the most versatile men in the diplomatic service. He had a great interest in sports, developed during his days as a Yale undergraduate, when he shattered many intercollegiate track records and originated & new style of starting ces. To this first interest he added many BEDROOM *69 others—travel, diplomacy, law, writ- ing, military affairs and politics. Gen. Sherrill won seven intercol- legiate championships during his track career and was American 100- yard champion in 1887. Captained Club Crew. After leaving Yale, he continued to compete on the track and in addition was captain of the New York Athletic Club eight-oared crew which won the Decoration day junior and senior races on the Harlem in 1893. He cap- tained the 1900 New York Athletic Club track team, which took most of the Olympic titles at Paris. In 1922, Gen. Sherrill became & member of the International Olympic Committee. He played a major role in opposing the Olympic “boycott” movement at the national A. A. U. convention last Winter, maintaining Germany had not violated the Olym- pic rules nor its promises there would } be no racial or religious discrimina- tion in conducting the games. Gen. Sherrill was born in Washing- ton on April 13, 1867, the son of Charles Hitchcock and Sareh Fulton Wynkoop Sherrill. He was graduated from Yale in 1889, and in 1891 took up the practice of law in New York, where he remained for nearly a score of years. Until he became Minister to Argentina. He mastered eight lan- guages, including Turkish and Rus- sian, by a self-invented system, and was able to make public addresses in all of them. Secured Business for U. 8. ‘While in Argentina Gen. Sherrill se- cured much business for American firms, especially for construction of railway cars and battleships. Trade between the two ountries increased greatly during his ministership.
