All that the Olym; ter we like it and the more stuff we show. Victory means much in this our seventh Olymplad—yet it is not the stake we strive for. Rather it is the example of a super-type of athletes we would hold up to the world—strong of heart, clear of. eye, clean of mind, lovers of honor—all. Certainly it is a glorious honor to every member of our 1920 Olympic team to have been chosen as these types of Ameri- ca's “flower” and her “finest.” Is it any wonder if they are proud, or that we are proud of them?

Y., Aug. 9.—Christy Matthewson, former famous New York Giant hurler, has only a chance of recovering from the sudden attack of tuberculosis which forced him to give up his baseball work and retire to Saranac Lake, according to physicians who have returned after examining “Big Six.” Both lungs are tubercular and the only hope for the big fellow is outdoor life in Arizona, say the same physicians. Matty has informed his New York friends that he will leave at once for the West.
