Mike Murphy, the veteran Penn trains er, has been chosen trainer and Matt Halpin, captain of the New York Ath+ letic Club, has been appointed manager of the American team which will take part in the Olympic games at Stockho! next summer. This a¢tion was taken at the meeting of the Executive Committes of the American Olympic Committes a tho N.Y. A. C. The committee decided to hold thréd sets of “try-outs" from which to selegt the team. James E. Sullivan was unanimously chosen as eter of the men. Tho try-outs will be held in Bos- ton, Chicago and San Francisco on the samo day, What the date will be wae not definitely settled as the committee did not wish to conflict with the inters collegiate championships which will be held on the last Friday and Saturday in May. The try-outs will probably be hela one week before or one week after the college championships. Besides the regular tryouts it waa, decided to hold separate tryouts for the pentathlon and the decathlon, the al around contests which will be held Sweden. The former will _be yeld in Boston, Chicago and San Francisco on April i3 and the latter in the same cities on April 18 and 19. ‘The wrestling tryouts will be hel early in the spring at either Chicago or St. Louls. To decide those who will make up the swimming team the com mittee declared that the winners of the - National A. A. U. and the intercollegiate championships will make up the team. This decision was mado because the. committee feared that the weather . would be too cold tn the early spring | to hold tryouts in the open waters.
