TAR EASTERN OLYMPIC GAMES TO BE HELD SOON IN SHANGHAL According to a report from Shang- hai, the Far Eastern Olympic games Saturday and continuing through all of next week, when the star athletes of China, Japan, India, pines, Korea and Siam will compéte for supremacy. This gathering of the gladiators of the Orient suggests {mew “vellow peéril” so fai overlooked { by Mr. Hobson of Alabama. The Chinese student having been shorn of his pigtail’and thrown aside his horn- rimmed goggles, and having dismissed from his mind the ancient Chinese belief ‘that physical exercise is de- grading and fit only for siaves, pro- mises to cut quite a figure in the athletic world in the not distant fu- ture. The undersized Chinese who man-handles your shirts and collars is not to be accepted as representa- tive of his countrymen, for Chinese Republic .includes among its citizens many men of beef and brawn who are possessed of undoubted ath- letic prowess. The same is true Japan and india, for in the interiors of those countries are to be found physical giants who at their own a the best of European and American grapplers a hard tussle. The Eastern Olympic games. pro- {gram includes all the regular track and field events, allee sammee like the Western Olympics, and also base- ball, tennis, basketball, volley hall, } soccer football, wrestling ‘and- boxing: For nearly a year the coacheés of the colleges of Japan, China, the Philip= | pines and other eastern countries | Have been training their star men for these games, and it would not be sur- prising if records were broken. Baseball and soccer have become the leading college games of the Far East, but the sport that holds the at- tention of the major part of the peo ple is wrestling. Wrestling as it is conducted in Japan, China and India is not like the western mat game. The Japanese wrestlers have forty-eight standard holds. A fall 'is counted when any part of the body above the knees touches the ground. .The Jap system of wrestling is strictly a game, and it is not advocated as a means of self defense. Jiu-jitsu is for that. The Japanese wrestlers who have dis- played their prowess in America have not been very successful, but that is probably because they are unacus- tomed to the. rules and practices gov- .erning the western style of wrestling. India is said by many experts to have produced the greatest wrestlers known to the game. Gama, the In- dian grappler, visited. England: some time ago, and made Zbyszko jump out of the arena in London. Hacken- schmidt and Gotch show no ;anxiety to meet the Far stern gladiator. “The best Indian grapplers hail from the Peunjil distriet... These hillsmen are brawny specimens of humanity, and they are educated for the game from their infancy. Al- most from the day of their birth they are Kept in strict straining. The na- tive princes each have a stable of wrestlers, and the tournaments are great affairs, attracting from 50-000 to 100,000 spectators. The mahara- jahs are ‘‘dead game sports,’ and often millions of dollars change hands on the result of a wrestling bout. In the Philippines, thanks to ~the influence of Uncle Sam, baseball has become the most popular:-game, ' and has generally supplanted cock-fight- ing and other inhuman sports fostered by the Spaniards.

F.,, May 12.—A iate run of artic ice has blockaded the east coast of Newfoundland. The great floes have so chéked the harbors that the movement of coastwise vessels has been stopped and one hundred fishing schooners ready for their annual operations on the Grand Banks and off the Labrador coast have been de- layed in departure. TODAY IN PUGILISTIC ANNALS. 1911—Eddie Santry knocked out Jack Ryan in fourth round at South Bend, Ind. This was the last ring bat- tle of the great little Chicago feath- erweight. Santry retired from the ring and went into business, and last vear he was elected a member of the llinois state legislature, where he has been a leader in the movement to put the Sutker state back on the pu- gilistic map. Santry was born in Aurora, Ill, an dis' now nearing his fortieth milestone. He began boxing in Chicago twenty years ago, and, al- thought he failed to win a title, was one of the most popular featherweight boxer of his day. He defeated Tommy Dixon, Australian Billy Murphy, Os- car Gardner, and many other clever lads, but lost to George Dixon, Terry McGovern and Young Corbett. 1884—Charlie Mitchell defeated Bil- ly Edwards in three rounds at New York. 1894—Frank Erne defeated George Siddons in six rounds at Buffalo.
