The procession ended with carriages consort's aides. At the stadium the ptince was received by the international Olym- pic committee headed by the execu- tive committee, among whom were General Charles Sherrill and the Dutch Olympic organizing commit tee, who conducted the prince t his box amid the strains of the na; tional anthem. No soomer was the royal party seated than the historic march of the nations into and around the stadium began. Almost 5,000 ath- letes and officials marched by in the course of a parade lasting a full hour, cach country headed by national colors and another bearer of a standard on which was in gcribed the name of the country The athletes entered by the marg thon gate, opposite the royal marched around the stadium, lo ering flags in salute as they pass the prince, and on completion of the march formed columns in the center of the arena behind their re- gpective stands facing the royal stand of honor. This procession was headed the Greeks as originators of the Olympic idea. They were followed by other nations in the order of the Dutch alphabet, America being 42nd and the Dutch themselves last as hosts, The y Olympic international a the Dutch organizing committees now ranged themselves in the arena in a semi-circle dircetly be- fore the royal stand. Then followed an address in Dutch by J. Th.

The fixed rules and regulations arc in the hands of those who will carry them out vigorously. They will be gladly { submitted to. Every competitor will {have the conviction that the win- iner will achieve personal and na- [tional honor only when victory is »cured with a shining weapon and clean hands.

Bridgeport, July 28 (#—Constablc Arthur J. Bennett of Fairfield, slayer of David Hazay, 32, of that town, is absolved by Coroner John J. Phelan today for the death of Hazay and is at the same time commended by the coroner for his action in shooting Hazey to death. Early in the morning of July 28 Hazay was killed in an exchange of shots with Bennett when the latter attempted to arrest him for the shooting of Constable Hezekiah R. Elwood. The coroner in his finding points to the testimony of Dr. Wil- liam H. Donaldson, Fairfield medi- cal examiner, who after an autopey reached the conclusion that Hasay had been of unsound mentality fer over a year. In commending Bennett the cor- oner said “Constable Bennett is to be commended for courage in the face of great potemtial danger, and in the prompt perfermance of his duty in endeavoring to arrest the deceaseq for the shooting of Cen- stable Etweed.”
