In achieving these victories, America made seventeen new
Olympic records, seven of which are world records. This repre-
sents, I believe, the greatest number of Olympic and world records
ever achieved at one time in any set of games, either Olympic or
otherwise, by any nation, either American or foreign, in the history

The purpose of the local tryouts in various sections of the
country was to acquaint the various localities with the avail-
able athletes and the quality of their performances. This
enabled the athletes to know by comparing performances,
whether it was worth their while to make the trip for the
final tryout. This plan worked admirably and there is no
doubt but it is the only fair and democratic way to select the
various teams.
The Marathon team was selected after a careful study of
the work of the men in the Detroit, Long Beach, Baltimore
and Boston Marathons.
No prizes were awarded the athletes for placing in the try-
outs but an engrossed certificate was presented to each com-
petitor placing one, two, three in each event. A total of 12C0
certificates was issued and the athletes valued them very
highly. It is estimated that 12,000 to 15,000 athletes competed
in the various tryouts conducted to select a team.
Transportation and Housing—A Transportation Committee
was appointed consisting of Murray Hulbert, chairman;
Joseph B. Maccabe, Gustavus T. Kirby and Major William
C. Rose. The housing problem at Amsterdam was a serious
one and the committee sent as its representative in 1925,
Murray Hulbert, to make a survey of the situation at Amster-
dam. Lawson Robertson was sent abroad in 1926 on the same
problem, at which time Joseph B. Maccabe and Murray Hul-

The prizes, medals and diplomas must be different from those used for the current Olympic
Games.
The Winter Games are governed by all the general rules applicable to the Olympic Games
as well the rules of the Olympic protocol.
8. Organization
The Organizing Committee of the country chosen for the celebration of the Olympic Games
is responsible for the Games and must make all necessary arrangements to this effect. It must
carry on all correspondence relating to its work and it must send out the official invitations to
the different nations.
9. Entries
Entries for all events are received by the National Olympic Committees of each country
who can alone forward them to the Organizing Committee of the Games.
The Organizing Committee must acknowledge them.
If there is no National Olympic Committee in a country the entries must be sent through the
International Olympic Committee.
If a National Olympic Committee considers that any entry does not conform with the
Olympic requirements or the definitions of the International Federations this entry will be
sent on without being countersigned.
(a) Six weeks before the date of the start of the first event each nation must send to the
Organizing Committee a list of the sports and events in which it will participate. This list
can be telegraphed.
(b) The names of the competitors must be received by the Organizing Committee at least
three weeks before the date of the first event in each sport Countries are allowed to replace
these names by others not later than ten days before the start of the first event. These altera-
tions may be sent by telegram. The Organizing Committee must receive the entries written
on the special forms and in duplicate. The names of the athletes must be printed or type-
written.
So as to guarantee that telegraphic communications are genuine, all National Olympic
Committees who use this means of correspondence must communicate to the Organizing Com-
mittee some code word or device to be used in all telegrams sent by them.
The date on which the telegrams are sent on will prevail when observing the terms prescribed.
Entries are not valid unless the above rules are observed.
To permit and to promote during the Olympic Games such displays as are calculated to
exhibit the value of different systems of gymnastic instruction, the I.O.C. will receive direct
entries from groups qualified to offer such displays and transmit them for its use to the Com-
mittee organizing the Games.
No entrance fee can be demanded from the entrants.
10. Number of Entries
The maximum number of entries from each nation in each event is fixed by the International
Federation.
However, the following numbers cannot be exceeded:
(a) For individual events, four competitors per nation (without reserves).
(b) For team events, one team per nation, the number of reserves to be fixed by the In-
ternational Federations concerned.
The last rule does not apply to lawn tennis doubles or the tandem cycle race.
In cases where there is no International Federation for a sport the Organizing Committee
of the Olympic Games fixes the number of entries for this sport in accordance with the above
rules.
11. Non-Acceptance of Entries
The Organizing Committee has the right to refuse any entry without being obliged to make
known the reason for this decision.
Nevertheless, the reason will be communicated confidentially to the National Olympic
Committee concerned,
12. Organization of the Different Sports
The sole responsibility and control of the Games shall rest with that National Committee
to whom the organization of the Games has been entrusted, such organization to be carried
out in accordance with the regulations and protocol of the Olympic Games.
The technical celebration of the Games is according to the rules established by the Congresses
of Paris (1914). Lausanne (1921), and Prague (1923) which determined the functions of the
National Olympic Committees and the International Federations under the direction of the
International Olympic Committee.
The Organizing Committee makes all necessary arrangements for the celebration of the
Olympic Games in accordance with the general regulations adopted by the various Congresses
and the Protocol of the International Olympic Committee.
It must enforce the strictest observance of the technical rules of the International Federa-
tions, these Federations having the right, in each sport, to choose the juries and have the
technical control of the events.
However, the International Federations will choose from amongst their members called
upon to form the Ground Jury and the Jury of Appeal, a maximum of three technical delegates
who must be on the spot 15 clear days before the start of their sport in order to get into touch
with the Organizing Committee and prepare the work of the Juries.
The expenses of these three delegates during the fifteen days before the start of their sport
shall be charged to the Organizing Committee of the Games at the rate of 5 dollars a day.
NINTH OLYMPIAD 75
15. Claims
Claims made to the judges, concerned with facts, are decided by them without appeal.
Appeals against other decisions of the judges or with regard to any other matters must be
addressed to the proper Juries of Appeal by a member selected by the Olympic Committee of
the country making the appeal or by a person chosen to take his place.
Unless the International Federation concerned decides upon an extension of time these
claims must be made within one hour after the decision giving rise to the claim. The Jury
shall then give decision after an enquiry and this decision shall be irrevocable.
No claim can be considered unless it is accompanied by a deposit of 100 gold francs (50
guilders).
This sum will not be returned if the claim is made upon frivolous grounds.
BELT BUCKLE
Presented to each member of the team.
19. Classification
In the Olympic Games there is no classification according to points.
A Roll of Honor, In alphabetical order, shall be set up bearing the names of the first six
competitors in each event, if this classification can be made.
This document shall be drawn up and kept under the control of the International Olympic
Committee.
20. Booklets and Programmes
A special booklet containing the programme and general rules shall be issued for each par-
ticular sport.
The booklets and programmes of the Olympic Games shall not have any advertising matter
in them.
21. Official Text

ments must be made by the Organizing Committee.
25. Housing
The Organizing Committee of the Olympic Games must provide the athletes with furnished
quarters and food at an inclusive price per head and per day which must be previously fixed.

NINTH OLYMPIAD 79
(h) An amateur cannot receive payment for his travelling and other expenses to enable
him to take part in competitions abroad, for a longer sojourn than 21 days in all per calendar
year spent in foreign countries. Accumulation of these 21 days in two consecutive years
cannot be allowed. An extension can be given the athlete by the Association of his country,
if he is selected by said Association to take part in Olympic Games or represent his country
in matches against another country. The Council of the I.A.A.F. is entitled to make exten-
sions also in other cases if it deems proper. The national associations are responsible for the
faithful observance of the above rule and shall keep a complete record of time spent abroad
and expenses incurred by their athletes, the record to be laid before the I.A.A.F. if called for.
(i) Any expense money must be paid, not to the athlete, but to the Association of the ath-
lete's country.
(j) An amateur cannot accept travelling expenses or payment of any kind for a trainer
rubber, masseur, friend or relative. (Note.—This rule does not mean that travelling expenses
of trainer and the like cannot be paid, but that such expenses cannot be demanded by, or paid
to, the athlete).
(k) An amateur cannot, directly or indirectly, accept payment for any loss of time or wages
in attending, or training for, any athletic competition.
(l) An amateur cannot, directly or indirectly, receive any reward for becoming, or con-
tinuing as, a member of any club or any other athletic organization.
(m) An amateur cannot compete for or from an athletic organization in whose employ he
is, or who for compensation renders personal services of any kind to such organizations.
(n) An amateur cannot sign a contract agreeing to take a professional position in athletics,
or to take part in any athletic sports for money.

firm, manufacturer or agent, nor shall he allow his name to be used as a means of advertising
or recommending the goods of any firm or manufacturer.
In all queistions as to the athlete's amateur status other than those in which the Member of
the Federat on of the country of the athlete has been made the sole arbitrator, the statement
of any Member as to an athlete's status is subject to the review and decision of the Federation.

86 AMERICAN OLYMPIC COMMITTEE
the minor incidents that have occurred since then will show-
that the Games themselves should not be held responsible.
As a matter of fact, the Olympic Games should be credited
with the gradual elimination of just the sort of international
misunderstanding and animosities as existed a quarter of a
century ago not only in athletics but in nearly all contacts be-
tween the old world and the new. In the early days of the
Olympic Games, England and the United States were virtu-
ally the only serious contestants. England, in fact, had been
America's instructor, and England, unfortunately, had not
realized that the pupil had surpassed his teacher. That was
demonstrated for the first time at Paris in 1900, and it became
universally recognized after the 1908 Games. Probably Eng-
land was not as charitably inclined toward the American
champions as she might have been, and it is equally true that
the victorious Americans were not as modest as they should
have been.
A great change has been wrought in international athletic
relations since 1908. No one who saw the thousands of Ger-
mans at Amsterdam stand up and cheer Lord Burgh ley and
Douglas Lowe when they won their spectacular victories for
England will ever forget that scene and what it meant to think
back just ten years when the Germans and the British were at
each other's throats. And although the English were winning
events which we had confidently expected our own men to
win, the Americans, spectators as well as athletes, joined in
the applause and congratulations. There were other incidents
in which the same splendid spirit was displayed.
Those scenes would not have been possible twenty years
ago, and they demonstrate, as nothing else could, just how
much these Games have done to improve international friend-
ship. It has been said that American victories were not
so cordially acclaimed at Amsterdam. That is true, but Ameri-
can victories in the Olympic Games had previously been so
constant that the other nations had come to consider even
second places as moral victories. Under the circumstances
their gloating, even at America's expense, was pardonable.
Although we no longer surpass European countries to the
extent we once did, our participation in these Games has had

team would have been all to itself with no curious crowds and
athletes from other nations to distract their attention from
training. The athletes could then have been taken to the
Stadium the day previous to their respective events.
This, of course, is merely my opinion and not a criticism
as to the methods used by our capable committee. It may be
of use in the future and with this solely in view, I offer the
above.

154 AMERICAN OLYMPIC COMMITTEE
at all times and that the training facilities aboard ship were
ample. The training facilities afforded us in Amsterdam up-
on our arrival were not very good, but we had these remedied
after a few days. The members of our team were in good
condition during the games, excepting two girls whose condi-
tion was brought about by unavoidable accidents.
For a time the meals were unsatisfactory, not because of
the food, but because of the uniformity of the menus. This
was brought to the attention of the steward and the condition
remedied.
My observation is that the entire personnel of the teams
on board was well taken care of, collectively and individually,
and was in good mental and physical condition during the trip
across and in the games.
The high morale and good physical condition of the
women's track and field team were due to the untiring efforts
of Mr. Melvin W. Sheppard, coach and Mrs. Aileen Allen,
chaperone. We were fortunate in having their assistance and
I wish to take this occasion to thank them for their services.
For future Olympic games I recommend :
1. Announcement should be made prior to the
tryouts that athletes taking such number of leading
places in the tryouts as may be decided upon will be
selected as members of the team, regardless of times,
or performances, or accidents. This will do away with
accusations of favoritism and misjudgment and materi-
ally help the morale of the team and the collection of
funds,
2. Our representative in the country in which the
games are held should see that proper training facilities
are provided for the teams upon arrival and that the
sanitary conveniences provided are similar to and of the
same standard as of our country.
3. The menus should be supervised as to variety
by someone versed in dieting. A cook or steward is
prone to interpret directions as to training diet too
strictly,
On behalf of the women's track and field team, I wish to
thank the American Olympic Committee and its officials for
the interest in and the co-operation afforded our group.

Art level of entries on as high a plane as possible, and counts on the co-operation of the large

besides the works of art representing a direct illustration of sport, there will be also admissible—
in imitation of the ancient Greeks—representations of the perfectly developed human body.
This will have to be preferably in a sporting attitude, but attitudes of rest after bodily exercise
need not be excluded. Portraits in connection with sport, as for instance In sports dress, and
of leaders of sport may be accepted. A high standard of art must, however, be maintained as
a primary condition for all entries.

of works of art at the Exhibition, at a price in Dutch guilders to be stated on the form of entry,
by the artist in question. No charge will be made for this service.
It must also be stated on the form of entry if the sender does not wish to compete for a prize;
anyone not making this reservation will be considered as competing.
Entries from art dealers or industrial undertakings will not be accepted.
The collections formed by a National Committee must be within the limits of the space
placed at their disposal after consultation.
Frames containing more than one drawing or engraving, may not be more than 1.20 M. in
length. Each frame will count as one exhibit.

photographs to the form of entry relating to their work as mentioned in Art. 6. From these
photographs, which must be suitable for reproduction, the compilers of the catalogue will
make a selection.
In cases where this explanatory notice may not be sufficiently explicit, the N.O.C. (Art
Branch) will be pleased to give further particulars.

REPORT OF MANAGER OF THE CYCLING TEAM
E. E. FRAYSSE
The following is the report of the trip of the American
Cycling Team to the IXth Olympiad in Amsterdam, Holland
in 1928.
On July 11th, four American cyclists in charge of the
writer, sailed from New York on the S. S. "President Roose-
velt" of the American line. The cyclists who were entered in
the 165 Kilometer road race were: Henry O'Brien of San Jose,
California; Chester Nelsen, St. Louis, Mo.; Peter Smessaert,
Chicago, Illinois and Charles Westerholm of New York.
We landed at Amsterdam July 20th after having spent
about ten days crossing the ocean. The weather on the trip
was ideal which gave the boys a chance to do some light
training. It was almost impossible for them to ride around
the track, which had been built on the deck of the ship, on
account of so many using same. However, they would get up
at 5 A. M. and ride until 7 A. M. This kept their legs some-
what in shape as to pedal motion but far from giving them
speed.
Immediately upon arriving, the course of the race was
ascertained and the riders were taken over the full course in
order to familiarize themselves with same and from then on
they seriously and conscientiously trained, riding from 25 to
50 miles per day and on two occasions rode the full course.
The riders as a team finished in 15th place. This might
appear as a poor showing but if we will consider that our
team had been trained on the finest roads of the world and
then had to compete on a course that had many miles of
cobblestones and gravel roads that were filled with ruts and
sharp stones that caused much tire trouble; also on foreign
land with different climate to contend with, their showing
does not appear so bad to those who understand the obstacles
the riders had to meet.

of the 1924 Olympic Team, together with that gained by the

SPECIAL ARRANGEMENTS
The Equestrian Championship is composed of three distinct contests, which will be run on
three consecutive days. First day: Training competition
Second day: Endurance test
Third day: Jumping competition
During the contests, it is forbidden for members of the team to accept help, to jump ob
stacles in pairs, to be led by another member of the team, or to ride over the track on horseback
before the contests. A premeditated fraud, duly reported, leads to disqualification.
Before the training and the jumping contests, the horses are examined by an international
commission composed of three members: a superior officer or a qualified civilian of the organiz-
ing country shall act as President, and the two members drawn by lot, from among the officials.
To this commission shall be added as a consultant a military veterinary surgeon, who must
belong to the organizing country.
This commission shall, on its own responsibility, and without appeal, prevent from taking
part in the last contest only:
1. Horses who have been indisputably over-ridden.
2. Horses who are, for any reason whatsoever, seriously lame.
All the others can continue to take part in the Competitions at the wish of their rider, and
will be classified. FIRST EVENT: TRAINING
This test is intended to show the suppleness of the horse and its docility in response to the
rider's aids (good free action and light in the hand).
Each rider must do the whole of the work imposed, and the movements must follow one
another in succession.
Every omission of a set exercise is penalized in accordance with the list drawn up, and the
Judges may require such omissions to be done at the end of the work, but no marks will be
given.
Each contestant will have eleven minutes in which to do his work, the time being counted
from after the salute to the Judges.
Any concurrent, who has not finished his performance in the fixed time, will be penalized
by two points for each second exceeding the time allowed for finishing his work.
Marks will be scored in accordance with the table hereafter.
The track will be 60 meters long and 20 meters wide, the middle line and the center being
distinctly marked.
If weather conditions make it necessary, the Training Contest will be held in a riding school.
Under no pretext will any competitor be allowed to practise on the track before the compe-
tition.
The marks to be given for each movement are according to the table in such a made out
way as to give a total of 300 points (20 x 15).

NINTH OLYMPIAD 189
the 1928
The Judge,
(1) Note: Any movement omitted must be unmarked.
Any concurrent, who has not finished his performance in the fixed time, will be penalized by
two points for each second exceeding the time allowed for finishing his work.
SECOND CONTEST: ENDURANCE TEST
This test tends to show the endurance of a really good, well trained charger or hunter, when
in the best condition.
At the same time it brings out the rider's knowledge of his mount and of how to use it to
the best advantage.
The test consists of riding 36 km., partly on roads and pathways, partly cross country and
partly over a steeple-chase course.
The distance is made up as follows:
A. On roads and pathways about 7 km. (4 1/3 miles); to be done at a speed of 240 m, to the
minute, that is 29 minutes 10 seconds.
B. Steeple chase about 4 km.; to be done at a speed of 600 m. to the minute, that is 6
minutes 40 seconds.
C. Roads about 15 km.; to be done at a speed of 240 m, to the minute, that is in 1 hour
2 minutes 30 seconds.
D. Cross country with jumps about 8 km,; to be done at a speed of 450 m. to the minute,
that is 17 minutes 46 seconds.
E. On the flat 2 km, at a canter; to be done at a speed of 333m. to the minute, that is
6 minutes.
Penalties
Coefficients are applied to all penalty calculations.
There will be a penalty of half a point for each five seconds lost during any of the sections
of the test (roads, steeplechase, cross country), which will then be multiplied by the coefficient.
The distances ridden on roads A., C. and E., must be done at the speed indicated for each of
them. Penalties for one of these sections cannot be compensated by bonuses in others.
Each competitor receives 20 points for the three distances A., C. and E. Penalties incurred
in any of the three sections are subtracted from this figure, and the remainder is then multiplied
by the coefficient 10. The amount obtained gives the number of points.
Example
A. 15 seconds behind t i m e . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.50 penalty
B. 25 seconds behind t i m e . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.50 penalty

20—4/16 x 10, that is 160 points for the three distances on roads.
In the steeple chase and in the cross country the mistakes in jumping must be added to the
time-penalties and will be calculated according to the rules, the result being multiplied by
the coefficients as given.
NINTH OLYMPIAD 191
Bonuses
There are no bonuses for time gained on the road courses.
In the steeplechase and cross country courses bonuses are given in accordance with the
attached tables, in the reckoning of which the coefficients 25 and 35 are used.
In the Steeplechase Course a bonus of two points (coefficient of 25 included) will be granted
for a speed of 624 m. per minute, which means that the 4.000 m. are ridden in 6 minutes 25
seconds, and further for 5 seconds gained in accordance with the first table on the list (see table).
In the Cross Country Course a bonus of two points (coefficient of 35 included) will be granted
for a speed of 477 m. per minute, which means that the 8.000 m. are covered in 16 minutes 46
seconds, and further for 10 seconds gained, in accordance with the 2nd table on the list given.
The maximum bonus possible in the Steeplechase course is 20 points (706 meters per minute);
the Cross country course is 44 points (602 meters per minute).
Speeds above this do not count
192 AMERICAN OLYMPIC COMMITTEE
Speeds above this do not count Speeds above this do not count
Jumping Mistakes
In the Cross country and Steeplechase sections the fall of a riier is penalized by 10 points.
The fall of the horse and rider is penalized by 6 points.
A first halt, refusal or breaking out at a jump is penalized by 2 points.
A second halt, refusal or breaking out at the same jump: 6 points.
A third halt, refusal or breaking out at the same jump leads to disqualification.
For mistakes in the course, which the competitor notices and rectifies immediately, the
penalty is the loss of time involved.
For all mistakes which are not rectified by the competitor, or which lead to the omission
of a jump, the penalty is disqualification.
If, on account of the condition of the ground, it is necessary to reverse the order of the
different training tests, the speeds and distances shown above remain the same.
Each competitor will receive the day preceding the test, a map showing the route to be fol-
owed, which will be marked by men on horseback or flags.
The competitors in the cross country test will be taken over the course beforehand. This
route will include 30 to 35 jumps.
Obstacles, which will be natural, such as hedges, ditches, farm gates, brooks, streams, on and
off a road, etc., must be jumped between two flags, and will have a maximum height of about
1 m. 15 and a maximum width of 4 meters.
THIRD EVENT: JUMPING
This third part is not a contest of the kind usually demanded at international meetings, but
is intended merely to demonstrate that, on the day after a severe effort, the horses entered,
retain that degree of suppleness and energy which enables the good charger or hunter to con-
tinue in service.
The 12 obstacles will be a fair distance apart, without "taquets," framed in, massive, impos-
ing by their shape and appearance, and resembling as much as possible those met with in the
country without being absolutely solid. The route will be strewn with guiding difficulties
such as halts; half turns.
They will include:
One double obstacle, such as a road.
Four obstacles being exactly 1 meter 15 in height (46 inches).
If possible 1 ditch 3 meters in width (9 feet 10 inches) with straight edges.
Six obstacles (open ditch, brook, cross bar on a bank, wall, oxer, "double" bank, etc., to be
decided bv the Organizing Committee).
The height of straight obstacles will vary between 1m. 10 and 1 m. 15. They will be chosen
from among those mentioned above (the width of the open ditches will not exceed 2 m., that
of the streams 3 m. 50 of water).
The speed required in this canter will be 375 meters a minute. A faster speed will not be taken
into account, while the rider shall be penalized half a point for each two seconds lost.
All faults are penalized in accordance with the rules laid down by the International Federa-
tion.
Fall of the rider alone 10 points
The 3rd refusal, halt or breaking out, either in front of the same obstacle or
during the course of the competition disqualification
NINTH OLYMPIAD 193
The 3rd refusal on the track, but away from the obstacles id.
The fall of the horse and the rider 6 points
The 2nd refusal, halt or breaking out, either in front of the same obstacle or
during the course of the competition 6 points
The 2nd refusal on the track, but away from the obstacles 6 points
Knocking over a jump with the front leg 4 points
Front legs in the water 4 points
The 1st refusal, halt or breaking out in front of the obstacle 2 points
The 1st refusal on the track, but away from the obstacles 2 points
Knocking over a jump with hind legs 2 points
Hind legs in the water 2 points
Mistakes in the course 2 points
If, in jumping, the rider or horse knocks over the standards, the wings or the flag setting of
the obstacle, it will be counted as a break out, and the jump done again as soon as the obstacle
has been put in place again. The same applies if a horse knocks down an obstacle with its
chest, when halting and refusing to jump or slipping.
In double or triple obstacles, the Judge must note down all the results, whatever they may be
If a horse stops or breaks out between the obstacles, double or triple, he must try the jump
again from between the two obstacles.
In mixed obstacles, such as double bars, streams or ditches preceded or followed by another
jump, only the most important fault is counted.
If the horse gets off the track, he is disqualified.
All doubtful points will be decided in accordance with the rules of the French National
Federation, adopted by the International Federation.
COEFFICIENTS AND THE ALLOTMENT OF MARKS
The marks in each different event in the Equestrian Championship will be based on a scale
of 0 to 20, and multiplied by the following coefficients:
Coefficient
1st Test: Training 15= 300 points
2nd Test: Cross country ....... 35 = 700 points
Steeplechase 25 = 500 points
On roads 10 = 200 points
3rd Test: Jumping. 15 = 300 points
100 = 2000 points
1. The training is marked movement by movement in accordance with the established
table, which gives a total of 300 points (20 x 15).
To facilitate the work of each Judge, the following procedure is carried out:
All movements are marked by each Judge from 0 to 10. The figure thus obtained is mul-
tiplied by the number which appears on the established table, which is then divided by 10.
This result is inserted in the column headed "points obtained;" this is the only figure which
counts in the adding up of the marks, and in the classification.
Example:
Movement 10 of the training test (changing of hand from D to E)—-the maximum allowed is
14.
The Judge puts 8.
This figure is multiplied by 14 = 112, then this result is divided by 10, the result being 11.2.
The rider has 11.2 for this movement.
2. In the second competition (endurance test) each rider starts in each part of the com-
petition with a maximum of 20 points. From this total of 20 all the penalties are taken; the
result obtained is multiplied by the coefficient of the test, to which are added the bonuses ac-
cording to the tables laid down. Thus the number of points gained is obtained on the road,
in the steeplechase and in the cross country.
In a case where a negative total is arrived at in any one competition, the total of these
minus points is deducted from the general total.
Example:
On the Road.-—Total number of points obtained 160 points
In the Steeplechase.—-1 fall of the rider. 10 points
1 break out 2 points
12 seconds behind time (1) 1 point
Total 13 points
in penalties, which gives:
21—13 = 7 x 2 5 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 175 points
In the Cross Country.—2 refusals at two different obstacles... 4 points-penalties
80 seconds g a i n e d . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 6 points-bonus
which gives:
20—4 = 16x35 =560 + 6 . . . . . . .566 points
The rider has obtained in the endurance test 901 points
3. The same applies to the jumping. Each rider starts with the maximum of 20, from
which is taken faults at the jumps and between the jumps and penalties for loss of time, the
coefficient in this case being 15.

will have thirteen minutes, in which to carry out the stated work, the thirteen minutes starting
immediately after the salute to the Judges.
Any concurrent, who has not finished his performance in the fixed time, will be penalized
by two points for each second exceeding the time allowed for finishing his work.
The track should be 60 meters long and 20 meters wide, the middle line and the center being
distinctly marked. The extremities of the inside track, which has to be traced at 2 metres from
the wall, must be distinctly marked.
If circumstances require, the training competition will be held in a riding school.
Under no pretext will a competitor be allowed to practise on the track before the compe-
tition.
If two competitors are equal, the Judges shall decide on the winner by having two or three
of the same movements done again. (1)
It was decided at the Lausanne Congress, that in this competition as well as in the Training
Championship, the President shall collect after each exercise, the marks from the Judges, and
in the case of too great a difference he will immediately ask for the reason of the divergence of
opinions.
(1) If two or more teams gain the same number of points, the team, the members of which
show the greatest similarity in their individual results, is classed first.
GENERAL RULES FOR MARKING THE TRAINING
Note for Judges which Will Assist Them in Marking the Training Uniformly
The aim of the training is to make the horse tractable, that is to say both alert and well
under control.
This double quality is shown by:
The freedom of gait.
The harmony, lightness and ease of movements.
The strictly upright position, maintained during the whole of the work.
The horse thus gives the impression that it is controlling itself.
Calm and alert, it answers its rider wholeheartedly.
Its step is even, free and long.
Its trot is natural, free and rhythmical.
Its canter is smooth, light and well timed.
Its haunches never appear inert or lazy.
At the first touch of the rider they become alive, and this reacts through all parts of the body.
Thanks to its constant forward impulse and to the flexibility and elasticity of its articulation,
which no resistance paralyses, the horse obeys willingly and without hesitation, calmly and
exactly the various aids of its rider.
He halts, and stands motionless, ready to go forward at the lightest touch.
When moving, he lightly strains at the reins, poise well balanced, more or less extended ac-
cording to the quickness of the pace.
Moving on two tracks, he does not slow down.
At a canter, he changes legs "en l'air", in a single step, and moving forward.
During the whole of the work he remains straight from head to haunches.
When inclining, he may make a slight bend, allowing him to see where he is going.
All movements must be done without apparent action of the rider.
The rider must be seated straight, back and hips loose, thighs and legs firm, the top of the
body at ease, free, and straight.

The foil team was helpless before Italy but gave France a
hard fight and was on even terms with the next best.
The epee team did not meet Italy. It was inferior to
France and Italy but on a par with any other.
The sabre team was inferior to Hungary and Italy but
fought on even terms with others.
In team competition, as a general rule, the old fencers are
a burden on the back of the young. Unless an older man has
perfect technique, he is good for about one match a day. The
old men cannot stand the grind of long competition. This
does not apply to perfect technicians like Gaudin or Terstyan-
sky but can be laid down as a general rule.
Calnan and Levis did splendidly in the foil. Every did
well when he had a chance and Rayner fought with his ac-
customed indomitable spirit. Calnan and Milner bore the
brunt of the epee team.
Huffman and Muray excelled for the sabre team whereas
Huffman and Cohn made the best performance in the individ-
ual sabre.
Levis in the individual foil and Calnan's 3rd place in the
epee, with Milner arriving in the final epee were the outstand-
ing performances of the American Fencers, unequalled by any
past American Olympic Fencing Team.
In the team competition the 3rd place won by the 1920
Foil Team still stands to be bettered.
On the whole, the U. S. Fencing Team at the IXth Olym-
piad was the best balanced in all weapons in my experience of
American Fencers at the Olmypiads. The future policy is
obvious. Scrap the old men or use them sparingly and build
future teams of young men. We have a good nucleus for
future teams.
Foils—Calnan, Levis, Every.
Epee—Calnan.
Sabre—Huffman and Cohn.
We should find the material for the next Olympic Fenc-
ing Team in these men and other men now in college.
In Rene Pinchart and George Santelli, we have had the
best coaches possible. They have worked without ceasing
with the available material. The progress of our Olympic
Fencing is largely due to them, I believe their excellence will

vested in the hands of:
The presidents of the "jury de terrain";
The organizing committee;
The F. I. E. (see also article 10);
The jury d'appel;
The jury d'honneur.
Article IX
A president of the "jury de terrain" has power over all fencers who take part in or are present
at the pool which he is judging.
In questions of materiality and validity of hit his decision cannot be appealed against unless
he has transgressed the rules laid down. He has the right to propose to the "jury d'appel" the
penalties, which he considers useful but which he cannot pronounce himself. The president of
the jury and the judges for each pool are nominated by the F. I. E.
Article X

in or are present at any of the fencing competitions at the Olympic Games of 1928. They are
entitled to enforce all penalties mentioned m Art. 3.
Article XI
The jury d'appel acts under the conditions laid down by F. I. E. rules.
Article XII

The composition of the different pools will be announced beforehand as well as the exact
time at which each pool starts.
At the hour mentioned the president of the jury named by the F. I. E. will call over the names
of the fencers or teams he is to judge. If at the first calling-over a fencer or a team is absent or
a team is incomplete the calling-over will be repeated twice at the interval of a minute. If a
fencer or a team is not effectively present at the twice calling-over such fencer or team will
be irrevocably debarred from taking part in that competition and no appeal against this deci-
sion will be entertained.
Article XVIII
In all pools every fight will be clearly announced beforehand so that every fencer may have
time to get ready. If after this announcement the fencer whose turn it is to fight does not
present himself at the first demand of the president of the Jury he shall be irrevocably debarred
from taking any further part in the pool.
Moreover a fencer who abandons a fight and leaves the piste will be irrevocably debarred
from taking any further part in the pool if he does not present himself at the first demand of the
president of the jury. This demand must be made at once. In this case of recognized "force
majeur" (f.i., broken weapon, disarranged clothing, accident, indisposition, etc.) the President
of the Jury is authorized to allow the necessary time before he makes his demand.

which team has to do so.
NINTH OLYMPIAD 219
Article VIII
Boots, Etc.
No player shall wear any dangerous material such as spikes or nails, etc.
Article IX
Bully
The game shall be started (and restarted) after each goal and half time by one player of each
team together bullying the ball in the center of the ground. If the play is momently suspended
it will be restarted bullying the ball also but off on a spot to be chosen by the umpire and
generally there, where the ball was on the moment of suspending the play. To bully the ball
each player shall tap first the ground on his own side of the ball and then his opponent's stick
three times alternately; after which one of these two players must strike the ball before it is in
general play. In all cases of bullying the two players who are bullying shall stand squarely
facing the sidelines, the goal at their right side. Every other player shall be near to his own
goal than the ball is (except in the case of a penalty bully) and no other player shall stand within
2.73 meters (3 yards) of the players participating in the bully. An ordinary bully in the circle
shall not be taken nearer than 4.55 meters (5 yards) from the goal-line. For any breach of this
rule the "bully" shall be taken again.
Article X
Goal
For a goal to be scored:
1. The whole ball must pass entirely over the goal line under the bar and between the goal
posts.
2. The ball whilst within the striking circle must have been hit by or glanced off the stick
of an attacker.
If the ball passes between the goal posts after having been struck by or having glanced off the
stick or person of a defender, or defenders, subsequent to being hit by or glancing off the stick
of an attacker within the circle a goal is scored. Should the goal posts or bar become displaced,
and the ball pass at a point which, in the opinion of the Umpire, is between where the posts
or below where the bar should have been, a goal shall be scored.
REMARK—It must be observed that a goal is not scored if the ball has not been struck by or
glanced off the stick of an offender within the circle.
Thus (a) It is not necessary that the offender will be within the circle; (b) but the ball must
be struck by or glanced off the stick of an offender within the circle (c) If the ball, struck by or
glanced off the stick of a defender passes the goal line, no goal shall be scored but a corner or penalty-
corner will be given depending of willfulness or not.
It is to be understood that the penalty circle includes the lines enclosing this circle. The
ball shall be considered to be within the circle if not any part of the circumference does not pass
the circle lines.
Article XI
Off-Side
When the ball is hit, or rolled in from the side-line, any other player of the same team as the
striker or roller-in who is, at that moment, nearer his opponent's goal line shall be off-side
unless there be at least three of his opponents nearer than he is to their own goal line.
A player who is off-side may not play or attempt to play the ball nor in any way interfere
with any other player until the ball has been touched or hit by one of his opponents.
No player shall be off-side.
(a) If he is in his own half on the ground, or
(b) If the ball was last touched or hit by one of his opponents or by one of his own team
who is nearer the opponent's goal line than himself.
Penalties (Inside or Outside the Circles) .—For any breach the penalty shall be a free hit by
one of the opposing team on the spot where the breach occurred.
REMARK—Never there will be given a penalty for off-side if a player does not in any way
interfere an opponent or really take part of the game.
A passing via the goal post to one of the attacking team will be considered as a direct passing
and the off-side rule will be in force.
Article XII
General Details
The ball may be caught or stopped with the hands, but if caught must be immediately
released to fall perpendicularly towards the ground. The foot, if used for stopping the ball,
shall be removed immediately.
The ball may not be picked up, carried, kicked, thrown or knocked on or back except with
the stick.
The flat side of the stick only shall be used and no player shall in any way interfere with the
game unless his stick is in his hand. There shall be no charging, kicking, shoving, shinning,
tripping, holding or striking at sticks.
Hooking sticks is only permissible when the stick hooked is within striking distance of the
ball.
A player shall not obstruct by interposing himself between an opponent and the ball, nor by
interposing himself or his stick in any way as an obstruction, nor shall he tackle from an oppo-
nent's left, unless he touches the ball before he touches the person or stick of his opponent.
The goal keeper shall not be penalized if in stopping a hit at goal the ball does not fall per-
pendicularly, having in the Umpire's opinion merely rebounded off his open hand. He shall
also be allowed to kick the ball, but only in his own striking circle. In the event of his taking
part in a penalty bully these two privileges shall not be allowed him.
NINTH OLYMPIAD 221
Article XIII
"Sticks"
When striking at the ball no part of the stick shall be raised above the shoulder either at
the beginning or end of the stroke.
Article XIV
Undercutting
No player shall intentionally undercut the ball. The scoop stroke, which raises the ball is
permissible (except as provided for in Rule 15) but the Umpire shall penalize it in any par-
ticular instance if it is dangerous in itself or likely to lead to dangerous play. The ball may
be hit whilst in the air (except as provided for in Rule 13),
Penalties for Breaches of Rules 12, 13 and 14:
1. Outside the Circles.—For any breach the penalty shall be a free hit for one of the opposing
team on the spot where the breach occurred.
2. Inside the Circles.—(a.) For any breach by the attacking team the penalty shall be a
free hit for the defending team.
(b) For any breach by the defending team the penalty shall be a "penalty corner" or a
"penalty bully" on the spot where the breach occurred.
A penalty bully shall only be given for a wilful breach of a rule or when, had the breach not
occurred, a goal would probably have been scored.
Important Remark.—1. A penalty bully must be given for a wilful "stick" to prevent a
goal, although paragraph (b) mentioned above, seems to show the contrary. In this case the
breach of the rule "sticks" must have prevented a goal.
The general opinion is that a penalty corner can only be given in case of a wilful fault to
prevent a probable goal. However, the rules are much more exact as a penalty-bully must
be given: (a) for a wilful fault; (b) and also if a goal would have been scored if no breach
(wilful or not) had occurred.
3. Inside or Outside the Circles.—In the event of two players being simultaneously at fault,
the Umpire shall give a bully at the spot where the breach occurred.
REMARK.—It is especially recommended to the Umpire and Captains to observe that those
players, who generally make "sticks" or "undercutting" and specially if clearing their end, shall
get out of these had habits as both of them are most dangerous for all the players.
However a certain toleration must be bewared relative the "kick." It will only be a fault if the
player's foot is in movement on the moment that the ball is struck by, or if the player gets a direct
advantage.
Faults as obstructing, charging, tackling from the left, must be prevented and if occurring be
severely penalized by the umpire.
Article XV
Free Hit
When a free hit is being taken, no other player shall stand within 4.55 meters (5 yards) o £
the striker. Should, however, the Umpire consider that a player is doing so in order to gain
time, he may allow the hit to be taken at once.
After taking a free hit the striker shall not participate in the game until the ball has been
touched or hit by another player.
The ball must be hit fairly, the scoop stroke not being permissible in this instance.
Should the striker hit at but miss the ball, the hit shall be taken again provided he has not
given "sticks."
Penalties—If any player, other than the striker, be within 4.55 meters (5 yards) of the ball
at the time of a free hit, the Umpire shall order the hit to be taken again, except as specially
provided for in this rule.
If the striker, after taking such hit, participates in the game again before the ball has been
touched or hit by another player.
1. Inside the Circles.—The Umpire shall give a "penalty corner."
2. Outside the Circles.—The Umpire shall give a free hit to one of the opposite team to the
offender.
If the ball is not fairly hit:
1. Outside the Circles.—The Umpire shall give a free hit to one of the opposite team to the
offender.
2. Inside the Circles.—The Umpire shall give a "penalty corner."
Article XVI
Penalty Bully
A penalty shall be taken by the offender, or by any other player of the defending team if the
offender is incapacitated, or has been suspended for misconduct, and by any player of the
attacking team, on the spot where the breach occurred.
All other players shall remain beyond the nearer 22.75 meters (25 yards) line until the
penalty bully has been completed.
If during the progress of a bully the ball passes wholly over any part of the goal line, which
is within the striking circle, other than that between the goal posts, off the stick or person of the
offender, the penalty bully shall be taken again.
If the ball passes wholly over the goal line between the goal posts off the stick of the attacker,
or stick or person of the offender, a goal shall be scored.
In all other cases, as soon as the ball has passed wholly outside the striking circle the game
shall be restarted by a bully on the centre of the nearer 22.75 meters (25 yards) line.
222 AMERICAN OLYMPIC COMMITTEE
Penalties:
(a) Breach of Any Rule by the Offender (Except Rule 9).—The attacking team shall be
awarded a penalty goal, which shall be of the same value as an ordinary goal.
(b) Breach of Any Rule by the Player Selected by the Attacking Team (Except Rule 9).—The
defending team shall be allowed a free hit.
(c) Simultaneous Breach of Any Rule by Both Players.—The bully shall be taken again.
Article XVII
Roll In
When the ball passes wholly over the side line, it shall be rolled in (and not bounced)
by hand along the ground, in any direction, from the point where it crossed the side line. The
roll-in shall be taken by one of the team opposed to the player who last touched the ball.
Players may cross the 6.37 meters (7 yards) line immediately the ball leaves the hand of the
roller-in. The ball may be rolled in at once, but no other player shall stand (himself or his stick)
within the 6.37 meters (7 yards) line or outside the side-line. Should the Umpire consider that
a player is standing within the 6.37 meters (7 yards) line or outside the side line, to gain time,
he shall not stop the game. The roller-in must have both feet and stick outside the side line,
and may only play the ball again after it has been touched by another player.
Penalties;
(a) Breach of the Rule by the Player who Rolls In.—The roll in shall be taken by a player
of the other team.
(b) Breach of the Rule by Any Other Player.—The roll in shall be taken again except as
specially provided for in this rule.
REMARK.-— The Umpire must carefully take care that the player, who rolls in, really rolls
the ball over the ground, as many players bounce it.
The rule of 6.37 meters (7 yards) line must only be taken strictly, when one of the players gets a
real advantage by breaching of it. It is important that no time will be lost.
Article XVIII
Behind
(a) If a ball is sent over the goal line by one of the attacking team or glances off the stick
or person of, or in the opinion of the Umpire is unintentionally sent over the goal line by,
one of the defending team who is farther away from his own goal line than the 22.75 meters
(25 yards) line, it shall be brought out 22.75 meters (25 yards) in a direction at right angles
to the goal line from the point where it crossed the line and there "bullied."
(b) If the ball glances off the stick or person of, or is, in the Umpire's opinion, unintentionally
sent over the goal line by one of the defending team who is behind the 22.75 meters (25 yards)
line a corner shall be awarded to the attacking team.
(c) If, however, the ball is intentionally, in the Umpire's opinion, sent behind the goal line
by any player of the defending team from any part of the field, the Umpire shall give a penalty
corner to the attacking team.
REMARK.—1. A corner can never be given if the defender unwilfully has touched the ball
outside the 22.75 meters (25 yards) line.
2. But a penalty corner must be given if the ball has been wilfully hit "corner" even outside the
22.75 meters (25 yards) line.
Article XIX
Corner
A player of the attacking team shall have a hit from a point on the side or goal line within
2.73 meters (3 yards) of the nearest corner flag, and at the moment of such hit the feet and sticks
of all the defending team must be behind own goal line, and the feet and sticks of all the attack-
ing team must be outside the circle in the field of play.
Provided that no player shall stand within 4.55 meters (5 yards) of a striker when a corner
hit is taken, and that no goal can be scored from a corner hit by the attacking team unless the
ball has been stopped (not necessarily motionless) on the ground, or has touched the person or
stick of one of the defending team before the last stroke of the attacking team. A player taking
a corner hit cannot participate in the game again until the ball has been touched or hit by
another player. On taking a corner hit, if the striker miss the ball he shall take the hit again
provided he does not contravenue Rule 13 (sticks).
Penalties;
If any member of the attacking team takes a flying hit at goal without attempting to stop
the ball, the Umpire shall award a free hit.
If the striker after taking such hit participates in the game again before the ball has been
touched or hit by another player the Umpire shall award a free hit.
REMARK.—-The players and Umpires must carefully note that the ball, in a direct passing,
must be stopped before shooting.
Article XX
Penalty Corner
A penalty corner hit shall be taken from any point on the goal line, on either side of the goal,
at a distance of not less than 9.10 meters (10 yards) from the nearer goal post. In case of a
wilful "corner" the penalty corner hit shall be taken from any point on the goal line on the side
where the ball has passed the line but at a distance of not less than 9.10 meters (10 yards) from
the nearer goal post.
All prescriptions and penalties relative to the "corner" are in force with "penalty corner."
NINTH OLYMPIAD 223
Article XXI
Umpires
There are two Umpires. Each Umpire shall take half the ground for the whole game without
changing ends. He shall also take one side line and give decisions as to the roll-in in both halves
of the ground. He shall give decisions as to "corner" only for his half of the ground.
The Umpire shall allow (the elements permitting) the full or agreed time, neither, more or
less, deducting all wastage, and keep a record of the game. In the event of a penalty-bully
failing to be taken of the call of half time or time, an Umpire shall allow extra time until either
a goal has been scored or the penalty bully has been completed. The ball is in play until the
whistle has been blown. If there be only one Umpire, there should be two linesmen to give
decisions as to the ball passing over the side lines, and as to where and by which team the ball
shall be rolled in.
Umpires and linesmen are debarred from coaching during a game.
Umpires shall refrain from enforcing a penalty in cases where they are satisfied that by
enforcing it they would be giving an advantage to the offending team.
The Umpires shall give all decisions without waiting for an appeal.
A ball striking an Umpire shall remain in play.
Article XXII
Rough Play and Misconduct
For rough play or misconduct the Umpire shall have a discretionary power to warn the of-
fending player, or to suspend him from further participation in the game.
Article XXIII
Accidents
When a player is temporarily incapacitated, the Umpire shall suspend the game. If a goal
is scored before the game has been suspended, it shall be allowed, if in the Umpire's opinion it
would have been scored had the accident not happened.
When an Umpire is temporarily incapacitated, the second Umpire shall suspend the game.
If a goal is scored before the game has been suspended, it shall be allowed if in the second Um-
pire's opinion it would have been scored had the accident not happened.
When the game is resumed the ball shall be bullied off on a spot to be chosen by the Umpire
in whose half of the ground the player was hurt, subject to Rule 9.

LACROSSE
A Stimulating, Interesting and Very Lively Game
"The Lacrosse demonstration in the Stadium yesterday
was certainly an interesting event.
"Exactly what lacrosse is and how it is played was ex-
plained to our readers several days ago. And yesterday we
all had the opportunity of seeing the game played by a Cana-
dian and a U. S. A. team.
"In our vicinity in the stands we heard quite a little com-
ment on the game—some of it adverse in a way. So, appa-
rently in sporting circles, as elsewhere, the proverb holds:
'What the farmer does not know he does not eat.'
"There can be no doubt that the opinion which most pre-
vailed among our uninitiated was that the players were just
there to beat each other up with the sticks. We ourselves
have heard that the sticks frequently clashed with not a little
force, Yet, it appeared to us that this was only in accordance
with the nature of the game. Through all that we also heard
upon occasion a sound which was not exactly one resulting
from wood meeting wood.
"The referee whistled five times in those instances to call
"fault." So far as we could see the official adequately en-
forced the rules of the game, and those rules at the same time
seemed sufficiently stringent to prevent untoward accidents
—as a general thing. Certainly everyone was able to ascer-
tain that all the players retained their general good health to
the finish.
"We heard some people around us call the game rude.
That's a matter of taste.
"To us it looked like a particularly lively, highly enter-
taining and stimulating game—solely suitable, however, for

ties in center shots and in points the number of place is given which is determined by the
average of the places which the competitors having the same result, would have obtained if
there had been no tie. If, for example, three competitors have the same result, giving them
the right to the sixth place, they will get:
The competitor coming immediately after, will get the place equal to the number of com-
petitors who have obtained a better result, plus one, which would be, in the above case, the
9th place. In every other contingency, the special regulations of international matches hold
good.
II. Swimming (300 meter course, free style)
The special regulations of swimming are obeyed with this difference, that the competition
is divided into series without finals. The result will be determined only by the time. In case
of a tie of the same time, the same place is given (see Rapid Firing).
Ill. Fencing
The Sword Competition, in one hit, will take place in the Fencing Pavilion.
The rules of the Federation Internationale d'Escrime will be applied with the following
exception:
The fencers eliminated in any round, and having the same position in their respective pools,
for instance Nos. 6, 7, etc., will fence a barrage until they have been classified. The general
classification of the eliminated fencers is arrived at by placing the Nos. 6 of the various pools
before those having the No. 7, the numbers 7 before the Nos. 8 and so forth.
Example
60 Fencers
First Round; 6 Pools of 10 Fencers.—Those having the numbers 1 to 5 in each pool pass on
the next round. The numbers 6 in each pool fence together as well as the numbers 7, 8, 9 and
10, until a classification is obtained.
In the general classification, the Nos. 10 will have the Nos. 55-60, the Nos. 9, the Nos. 49-54,
etc.
In this way, 50% of the fencers are definitely classified.
Second Round: 3 Pools of 10 Fencers.—Nos. 1 to 5 of each pool are qualified for the final.
Nos. 6 to 10 fence together in the same manner as the same numbers of the first round.
After this barrage, they obtain successively the numbers 16 to 30 in the general classification.
IV. Cross Country (running)
1. Course: The course is laid over broken ground, the way being unknown to the com-
petitors and marked immediately before the trial with red and white ribbons. The start and
the finish will be in the stadium.
2. Starts: These will be individual and one minute apart.
The starting order of the nations will be determined by means of drawn lots. Each nation
will designate the starting order of its own competitors and will warn the Organizing Committee
of this order in advance. All the numbers 1 start successively, then all the numbers 2, etc.
Classification is made by time. In case of a tie in time, the same place is given.
For everything else, apply the special regulations of athletic sports.
V. Equitation
1. The starting order of the Nations is drawn by lot. Each nation will designate the
starting order of its own competitors, and will warn the Organizing Committee of this order
in advance.
All the numbers 1 shall start successively, then the numbers 2, etc.
2. Habits: For officers, undress uniform. For gentlemen, hunting costume,
3. Weight: 75 kilos. Saddlery free.
4. Horses: They will be supplied by the Organizing Committee and are provided with
English saddlery and drawn by lot. They may not be tried before the Cross. (15 minutes before
the start.)
5. Course: Will not be more than 5000 meters in length. The course will be shown not later
than the day before the Cross. The obstacles (natural and artificial) will be marked by fanions
between which the rider must pass. The obstacles will not be more in height than 1.10 meters
and in width than 3.50 meters.
6. Start: The starts will be individual and 5 minutes apart.
7. Speed: This will be 450 meters per minute. All exceeding the required time will be
penalized a half a point for each two seconds lost. During the Cross the rider may not receive
aid from anyone or wait to make a pump with another rider.
8. Points: Each competitor receives at the start 100 points from which may be subtracted
the following:
3 points for the first refusal halt, or breaking out.
6 points for the second refusal or breaking out.
50 points for the third refusal or breaking out, after which the rider, without having taken
the obstacle in question, and in spite of the rules below relative to errors on the course, has the
right to continue to the next obstacle.
5 points for the fall of the horse or of the horse and rider.
10 points for the fall of the rider alone.
The faults mentioned above—refusal, fall of the horse, fall of the rider—will not be counted
except within a limit of 25 meters on both sides of the obstacle marked with two fanions:
If the rider does not take the obstacles in the indicated order, or if he does not jump between
the two fanions, he must recommence his course at the place where the fault occurred. Other-
wise, he will be disqualified for having committed a mistake in course.
The rider who, after three refusals at the same obstacle, continues, without clearing it, to the
next obstacle, will not necessarily be disqualified.
In case of a tie in points, the result will be determined by the time.

Article II
DEFINITION OF AMATEUR
(See Definition Above)
Article III
The coxswain and the rower at the bow of each team (bowman) shall carry on their backs
the number corresponding to that given them in the programme.
Article IV
The organizing Committee of the Regatta (Art. 12 of the General Regulations) shall appoint
the Umpire. His function may include that of starter or of Course Judge. The Umpire alone
shall judge whether or not a boat stays in its own course, if a boat should be taken out of the
race for breaking a rule, if a race should or should not be recommenced in case of abnormal
conditions. In the case where the Umpire considers it necessary to confer the function of
Starter to another person, the latter shall always be under the direction and control of the
former.
Article V
The Umpire judges the regularity of the course of the boats. He may warn rowers on the
point of committing an error of a nature such as might injure a competitor or cause an accident.
In the exercise of their functions, the Jury or the Umpire may take disciplinary measures
which they think just towards teams who break the rules or who refuse obedience or deference
to instructions given them. Disciplinary measures may consist of the following: in being
taken out of the race for infractions of the rules or for not following the orders of the Jury, and,
for grave cases, disqualification, and consequently, temporary or definite exclusion of the team
(or of the Nation to which the team belongs).
The decisions of the Umpire or of the Jury are without appeal concerning the events of the
race.
Appeals may only be made against decisions contradicting stipulations of the International
Code; these appeals shall be judged by the Central Committee of the F. I. S. A.
Article VI
Competitors must be at their places before the hour of starting fixed by the program. The
starting signal shall be given without waiting for late arrivals.
After being assured that the teams are ready by the question "Are you ready?" the starter
orders the start by the command "Go!", at the same time lowering his flag.
If the starter thinks the start irregular, he may, within twenty seconds following the start,
call the boats back to their starting point.
All stops in the race, either by the Umpire or by the Starter, is made by waving the flag and
ringing a bell.
The Umpire has a white flag, and the starter a red one.
Number one is always beside the Jury stand.
Article VII
During the race the boats must stay in their own respective courses; they must not cut the
route of competing boats to inconvenience them or to hinder them from following their own
route.
The boat that goes out of its course does so at its own risk and peril.
The route or course of a boat consists of the most direct line to be run by the whole group,
taking into consideration the course of each boat, allotted to that boat and occupied at the start,
and the place which it must leave free for the other boats.
Article VIII
The competitors may not, in any fashion, let themselves be followed during the race, by
- other boats in order to receive council or encouragement. The Umpire may take out of the race
any team, any member of which conducts himself in an improper manner.
Article IX
In case of a disagreement on the interpretation of the text, the French text alone is authori-
tative.

REPORT OF MANAGER, SOCCER TEAM
ELMER A. SCHROEDER
I beg to submit to you the report of the Manager of the
United States Olympic Soccer Team:
Prior to the departure for Europe, the United States
Olympic Soccer Team was assembled in the Prince George
Hotel, New York City, on May 9th. On the evening of the
same day, the American Olympic Committee tendered a fare-
well banquet to the team and its officials. The team sailed
from New York on May 10th aboard the S. S. De Grasse and
after a calm pleasant voyage and adherence to a definite sche-
dule of training, arrived at Havre, France on May 19th. The
team travelled immediately by rail to Paris and was quartered
in the Hotel Terminus. The afternoon of the 19th was taken
for sightseeing by bus. The players saw Paris from the Eifel
Tower, and in the evening the team attended the theatre. On
Sunday, May 20th, players of Catholic faith attended Mass in
the world famed Cathedral, Notre Dame. The delegation
proceeded to Amsterdam at noon of the same day on the
"North Star Limited" passed through the northern part of
France, crossed Belgium through the district of the famous
battlefield of the World War, and arrived at the Hotel de
Haas, Amsterdam, in the early evening of the 19th. At Ant-
werp, Belgium, the team was met by Mr. Hoover, American
attache and son of the American Consul General in Amster-
dam. Mr. Hoover accompanied the team to Amsterdam and
on a number of occasions thereafter.
In Amsterdam, the field and other facilities of the Ajax
Club, were placed at the disposal of the American delegation.
Daily morning practices were held there in preparation for the
game with Argentine, and a schedule of training was religious-
ly adhered to by all players.
272 AMERICAN OLYMPIC COMMITTEE
On May 21st, the team was the guests of the Carre Thea-
tre, where the players were given seats of honor draped with
the flags of United States and Holland. As a further courtesy,
the American National Anthem was played immediately after
the team arrived in the theatre.
On May 23rd, a trip was made by automobile to Marken
and Vollendam, two old fishing villages about twenty miles
from Amsterdam, where the quaint and picturesque old Dutch
costumes are still worn, including the wooden shoes.
On May 24th, the team played its first practice game
against one of Holland's best combinations, the Ajax Club,
the game ending by the score 1 goal to 1.
The famous diamond factory of Amsterdam was visited
in the afternoon of the 25th, and in the evening, at the request
of the Dutch hosts, a baseball game was played with the Ajax
Club which resulted in the score 29 to 4 in favor of the Ameri-
cans. The game was well attended and accompanied by much
enthusiasm.
The second practice game was played with the Ajax Club
on May 26th, and the result was 6 goals to 6.
On Sunday the 27th, the players attended Church, those
of Protestant faith, attending an old famous English-Ameri-
can Church which is interesting historically.
The Olympic Game with Argentine was played in the
New Stadium on the evening of May 29th, at seven o'clock,
before an audience of possibly 15,000. The American team,
led by the Captain, Robert Aitkens, entered the field amid an
enthusiastic and welcome ovation. The team wore white
jersies bearing the American colors and the American Olym-
pic emblem, white pants, and red, white and blue stockings.
The team appeared before the officials' section, gave the Ameri-
can Olympic call, exchanged greetings with the opponents, and
took positions for the game. Argentine scored first after four-
teen minutes of play, and again ten minutes later. It was at
this point, that Cooper, the American goal keeper, was injured
and suffered a slight concussion of the brain. He was re-
vived and only spirit and courage enabled him to continue in
a dazed condition. Half time score stood 4 to 0 in favor of
Argentine, and the final score 11 to 2.
It was unfortunate that the American team was drawn to
play Argentine in the first round. The Argentine team had
NINTH OLYMPIAD 273
given to the United States Team, and the manager was pre-
sented with the banner of the Altona Club.
The team left Hamburg on the 10th, went to Berlin, and
there boarded the Transcontinental Express for Warsaw. On
June 11th, the team was greeted in Warsaw by the officials of
the Polish Football Association and members of the Military
Staff of the President of the Republic. The team was escorted
to the Bristol Hotel, had dinner, and at five o'clock played the
Polish National team a 3-3 game which was attended by the
President and members of his official staff. The American
team, following the American colors, appeared before the
President's Box, saluted and gave the Olympic call followed
by "Niech Zyje Polask!" (Long live Poland). The thousands
of Polish spectators cheered wildly, and the manager of the
American team was presented with a silver cup by the Vice-
President of the Polish Football Association, the leading law-
yer of Poland. It may be added that the President of the As-
sociation is a general in the Polish Army. The President of
Poland, Prof. Dr. Mosciski then requested that the Manager
and Captain of the American team be presented to him, which
was done, and the honor and pleasure were theirs to engage
in a short conversation and exchange of greetings with him.
Newspaper reports of a riot or exhibition of hostility to the
referee in this game are unfounded. The game turned from a
victory into a draw in the last half minute of play, when a
penalty was called against the American team which was
scored. The team was honored by a banquet in the evening.
Two games were lost 6-0 and 7-0 in Lodz on the 12th and in
Poznan on the 13th. These defeats to inferior clubs can be at-
tributed to the fact that the team was tired and sustained in-
juries in Warsaw. The schedule was burdensome in Poland,
but the only condition under which the team could travel to
Poland was that three games be played there. Banners were
again presented ceremoniously in Lodz and Poznan. The
team was quartered in the Grand Hotel in Lodz and in the
Continental Hotel in Poznan.
After leaving Poznan on the 13th, the team arrived in
London via the Hook of Holland on the 14th, and were
quartered in the Victoria Hotel. Four players. proceeded to
Scotland and the remainder enjoyed the many interesting
sights of London. The team sailed for the United States

Art. 11. The fact of a player being dealer in sporting-articles, does not make him a pro-
fessional.

zation from his National Association. This authorization may only be given when the National
Association is convinced that the rules on amateurism have been observed.
Art. 12. It is strictly prohibited to an amateur to advertise or to authorize advertisement
by means of his name or by his qualities as a football-player.

RULES ON THE ALLOWANCE OF COMPENSATION FOR BROKEN TIME
(See the "Official Communications" of the Federation Internationale de Football Association"
4th Year No. 29, September 16th, 1927)
Art. 4. (Regulations) says:
It is not allowed to pay compensation for broken time excepted in some well circumscribed
cases to be fixed by each National Association.
However full compensation for broken time shall never be reimbursed and it shall not be given
in such a way that the player will be tempted to put sport before his work.
The regulations of National Associations concerning this matter shall be previously ap-
proved by the Executive Committee, who will take account, in fixing the number of days for
which the compensation may be given, the idea mentioned here above and the geographical
conditions of each country.
The National Associations are at liberty to allow the above mentioned limited compensation
for broken time or not.
The Executive Committee decided to be prepared to consider the regulations of the National
Associations on this subject if the following rules were observed:
1. The demands must be made to the National Associations by the players personally and
be accompanied by all the necessary proofs and documents.
2. The National Associations must keep records of the full names and residences of the
players allowed to receive partial compensation for broken-time, the amounts which they have
received and on which dates. These records must be put at the disposal of the Executive
Committee at once after its request.
3. Maximum indemnity. Unmarried players supporting their family and married players
shall receive 90 per cent of their wages at the maximum; the limit for unmarried players Is
fixed at 75 per cent of their wages.
4. The indemnity may be given exceptionally for playing International Matches and final
competitions for a National championship or a National trophy (for instance final and semi-
finals of National cup competitions).
The Executive Committee will decide In each case, what is to be considered as the final
competition of a National championship or a National trophy.
Excluded will be International interclub matches and district league championships.
5. Maximum number of days: The Executive Committee will fix for each country the
maximum number of days, which shall not exceed 20 days in each year.
(When oversea associations, who are permitted to allow limited compensation for loss of
salary send a team to the Olympic Games, 1928, at Amsterdam the number of days of the
duration of the voyage to and from Europe may be added to the allowed number of days).
6. The indemnity must be paid directly to the employer.

284 AMERICAN OLYMPIC COMMITTEE
same both for practice and time trials. This is very important
and serious. The time wasted, the money expended, patience
and long unnecessary riding and transportation, irregularity
of meals, due to this makeshift program; lack of interest, etc.
all tend to spoil the morale and make the work seem drudgery
and disheartening. The writer has had the personal experi-
ence of supervising under orders, all these changes and it
would be best that these changes be considered, if practical.
It might be said at this time that the clothing of the swim-
mers were perfect and practical. From a physician's viewpoint
everything was done for the safety, care and physical super-
vision of every athlete. At times, where extra clothing, suits,
food or other necessities were needed, the good congenial
Major Rose or reliable Rubien's counsel was sought, and in
every instance, both men showed a keen sympathetic interest
in helping and assisting with the definite problem. Both men
were real organizers and effective workers.
The treatment of the athlete could not have been better.
The sleeping accommodations, the cabins, and the general
comfort o'f the swimming team was the best. It can be
honestly said that no criticism can be made of the accommo-
dations as the committee were very considerate. They were
more than satisfactory.
The question of food and a training table would have
been more advisable, but not with mixed groups, of athletes
and non-athletes. This suggests another thought, for the
future. Experience has found that the mixing of two or more
organizations, inside of one, entirely different in makeup,
viewpoint, purpose, or interest, tends towards a general mis-
understanding, disorganization, and the loss of individual
team morale. This was true of this trip. It would be better
to have each organization function by itself, away from other
teams, and hold a certain man responsible for his organization
to the super man, in charge. For example, when we arrived in
Amsterdam, and were shocked at the place selected for us to
practice, and when a suitable place was finally found, it would
have been better to have moved the entire team to that place
and live there. Surely it would have been more practical
from every angle. There would have been better organiza-
tion, more work, less travel, and less interference and more
accomplished. Supervision would have been more practical
NINTH OLYMPIAD 289
and away from other interests and other sports, there would
have been less opportunity for things other than swimming
and diving. Mental diversion plus a keener interest in the
work and winning would have been seen. Better morale of
officials as well. Because of participating in Olympic Games
does not signify that we must live different lives. This was
very hard for the girls. Many so called chaperones and offi-
cials took trips for changes, which was fortunate, as a boat
does become monotonous at times. There is no doubt but
that the morale of the group would have been higher. This
was shown with the California crew. It is not supposition,
it is a reality proven !
Never in the history of athletics have a finer group of
men and women ever been selected as this special team that
represented the finest and best in the United States. It can
only be said by the writer who had the extreme honor and
privilege to be on the starting line and take care of the per-
sonal wants of each swimmer and watch their positions; that
the comments of distinguished people, athletes and officials,
were so pleasant and inspiring, that it made one proud not
only to be an American but happy to be with such a team.
Every swimmer was considered a gentleman or a perfect
lady, respectively. They all won a place in the hearts' of offi-
cials and spectators, and it is sincerely hoped that some day
when they return to these United States, that we can demon-
strate, prove and express, the same appreciation as they have
manifested throughout our entire meetings.
It is furthermore hoped that a very careful group of dis-
interested men and women, who have no personal gain or ax
to grind personally; no desire for spreading publicity, be
selected to act as representative Americans when the time
comes for selection. Let us agree that the next team will be
free from petty politics. At times it seems almost impossible,
in these days of commercial athletics, but there are many,
many nations, and personages, that still carry on the honest,
real and approved amateur ideals, with the inner hope of
giving to the younger generation, an opportunity for self ex-
pression, honest endeavor and determination for a better phy-
sical goal.
The Olympic Games are not only contests, but provides
all those identified with the stupendous sports program of a

and jerk).
Note.—The rules of this sport for Olympic Competitions are those of the Federation Inter-
nationale Halterophile. In case of disagreement on the interpretation of these rules, the
French text will prevail.
GENERAL REGULATIONS
DESCRIPTION OF THE EXERCISES
Spreading With Both Arms (Two Hands Military Press)
First Motion.—The bar is laid horizontally in front of the athlete's feet, gripped with both
hands and brought with a single distinct motion up to the shoulder while either lunging or
springing on bent legs. The bar is then rested on the chest or on the arms closely flexed, the
feet brought back on the same line not more than 40 centimeters apart.
Second Motion.—-When in this position, hold a two second stop, standing still. The bar is
then lifted up vertically until the arms are completely raised, without any jerk or sudden start.
When the motion is completed, another stop of at least two seconds is required, the arms and
legs stiffened. During this whole performance, that is, the uplifting proper, the athlete's body
must constantly stand in the vertical position.
Important Remarks.—As a rule, the bar must touch the chest before performing the second
motion, which must not commence until the judge gives the signal by clapping his hands.
Those athletes who are unable to rest the bar on their chests must inform the jury of this fact
before commencing the test. For this class of competitors, the starting point of the bar, as
far as the uplifting proper is concerned, shall be indicated by the meeting point of the collar-
bone with the sternum.
Incorrect Motion.—-Any departure of the body from the vertical position; any foot work
(heel lift, etc.) and any bending, however little, of the legs; uneven raising of the arms during
the uplifting.
Wrenching With Both Arms (Two Hand Snatch)
The bar is laid horizontally in front of the athlete's feet, gripped with both hands, pulled
with One motion from the ground to the end of the arms raised vertically above the head while
either lunging or springing on bent legs.
The bar is passed with a continuous non-stop motion along the body, of which no other part
than the feet must touch or graze the ground while the drill is being performed.
The up lifted weight is held for two seconds motionless in the final position, the arms and
legs stiffened, and the feet on the same line not more than 40 centimeters apart. This motion
must be done while the hands are extended direct from the shoulders; the hands may in no
case be displaced along the bar during the drill.
Important Remarks.—In this drill, the fundamental principle is a single motion, no slowing
of movement shall be at all admitted until the wrists turn over, which shall not take place until
the bar has quite plainly reached higher than the top of the performer's head. Suspension
wrenching is unlawful.
NINTH OLYMPIAD 311
Shouldering and Uplifting with Both Arms (Two Hands Clean and Jerk)
The bar is laid horizontally in front of the athlete's feet, gripped with both hands and brought
with a single distinct motion from the ground to the shoulders while either lunging or springing
on bent legs.
The bar must not touch the chest before reaching its final position of the shouldering, there
to rest on the chest or on the closely flexed arms.
The feet are brought back to the original position, that is, on the same line. Then the legs
are bent and both legs and arms are then stiffened suddenly so as to lift the bar to the end of
the vertically raised arms.
The weight is held motionless in this final position for two seconds, the feet on the same line
and not more than 40 centimeters apart.
It is forbidden to repeat the uplifting.
Incorrect Motions.—Leaning with a knee on the ground or any shouldering in the course of
which the bar should touch any part of the body before finally reaching the shoulders.
General Particulars
1. In all shouldering, wrenchings, and upliftings the leg work may, at will, consist of an
unlimited lunging or springing, the extent of which is not defined.
2. Hooking. The trick called "Hooking," shall be lawful. (In drills, closing the fingers
over the last joint of the thumb of the same hand when gripping the bar.)
Number of Trials
Each participant has the privilege of three trials for each scheduled event (and not for each
weight).
The increase of weights between each trial must not be less than 5 kilograms, except the last
one when it may be 2 kilograms and one-half only.
A premature increase of two and one-half kilos denotes the last try. In no case may the par-
ticipant carry out a trial with a weight less than that employed in the preceding trial. The
trials must be correctly performed in accordance with the rules of the Federation Interationale
Halterophile, the participant holding the bar at the end of the arms raised vertically above
the head, the feet on the same line, until the judge says "bon."
A repeated lift is forbidden; only one lift is authorized after a correct shouldering.
Weight
The weighing in for each category is determined at the time of the event. A participant who,
at the issue of this weight, finds himself in a category other than the one in which his engage-
ment was made, may not participate in this new category unless there is a free place.
Material
The only authorized material in International Competitions and at Olympic Games shall
consist exclusively of bars which must be so built as to have a maximum of 0 m. 211 clearance
between the bar proper and the ground; w.o.w. that the diameter of the greatest disk is 45 c m .
and of the bar 28 m.m.
Effort
In all drills, the judge shall register as a trial any attempt not completed in which strain
was evidently exerted especially attempts in which the implement reached the height of the
knees.
TIME TABLE
Saturday July 28th, 9, weighing in and demonstrations of the exercises prescribed; 18-24,
competitions. Sunday July 29th, 13-17, competitions; 19=24, competitions.

the legs are tied up as they are much of the time on the offen-
sive used by a number of nations in the modern development
of the game, the high bridge is impossible and rolling falls for
this reason must work a great unfairness to them. Flying
falls should probably be allowed. By flying fall is meant that
while on their feet an opponent picks his man up bodily,
throws him squarely on his shoulders, and although the touch
may be only momentary, it is a fall. When the men are on the
mat with one man on the offensive, or behind his man as it is
called, then the pin fall should be required and the shoulders
held to the mat for a perceptible length of time.
In the last Olympic Games this was the agreement as to
the governing of the rules, but the interpretation in every case
save one, when American athletes were eliminated, was that
any roll however fast, meant a fall. Unfortunately, as ap-
peared later, the United States wrestlers in the preliminary
rounds with two exceptions met men who were more or less
our own style. Berryman met Kapp of Esthonia, the final
winner in the class. Berryman took his opponent to the mat
immediately and in the fastest possible rolling fall was called
down. To the protest made, the answer was that it may have
been a mistake and that while the decision could not be re-
versed that it would not occur again. The other six men on
the team won their ways to the finals by work that was most
remarkable. The work done by these men can only be under-
stood by the record of their performance in these matches.
Up to and including the finals, twenty-six bouts were con-
tested and but four men went behind them or put an American
athlete on the defensive. And of these four men not one re-
mained there for a period of one minute. Every man without
exception outwrestled and took his man to the mat in the finals
only to be eliminated by decisions that had never been allowed
in Olympic competition before and which all admitted should
never be allowed again. With rules interpreted as they have
been in former Olympic Games the Wrestling Team should
have had at least six championships. In the face of such con-
ditions the wonder is that anyone won, Allie Morrison was
so superior that no man could go behind him and no man could
roll him. He simply could not be denied and greater glory is
deserved for it.

ROYAL NETHERLANDS YACHTING UNION
GENERAL REGULATIONS
For The Yachting Events of the Olympic Games 1928
The Yachting events of the Olympic Games, 1928, will take place in yachts of the Int. 8-
Meter-Class, the Int. 6-Meter-Class and the Int. Twelve-foot Dinghy Class.
The following rules are valid for these events:
A. GENERAL RULES (Valid for THREE Classes)
I
The races will be sailed under the rules of the International Yacht Racing Union, in so far
as these "General Rules" do not deviate from them. In case of disagreement on the interpre-
tation of these rules, the English text and footnotes of the Yacht Racing Association shall be
the only official text used. No appeal shall be made from the decisions of the Jury. Appeals
from decisions on non-technical matters, however, can be decided by the Appeal-Judges, when
asked for by one of the competitors or their representatives.
II
The National Authority of the Netherlands, being the Royal Netherlands Yachting Union
(Koninklijke Verbonden Nederlandsche Watersportvereenigingen), reserves itself the right of
altering or adding to the "General Regulations for the Yachting Events of the Olympic Games
1928." In case of disagreement on the interpretation of these "General Rules," the Dutch
text shall be the only official text used.
III
(a) If after a certain time, nearer to be appointed for each class according to the length of
the course, none of the yachts of her class should have reached the finish, this fact only shall be
reason to shorten the course.
(b) If after a certain number of hours, nearer to be indicated for each class, none of the
yachts of her class should have reached the finish (eventually of the shortened course), the
race shall be cancelled.
IV
An amateur is one, who fulfills the minimum requirements, stated by the International
Olympic Committee.
The competitors must be members of a recognized Yacht Club.
The naval officers from the battlefleets or the merchant marine are considered amateurs.
V
All competitors are supposed to be thoroughly acquainted with the racing rules. The
competencies, which article 50 of the Racing Rules awards to the National Authority, is given
to the Jury.
B. RACES IN THE INT. 8-METER-CLASS
(a) General Rules
1. One challenge only will be accepted of each country and with one yacht only, with a
national crew of 6 Amateurs maximum. No restrictions are made as to the nationality of the
designer or the builder of the entered yacht, the sailmaker nor as to the place where the yacht
was built.
2. The National Authority of each challenging country takes the responsibility for the
validity of the certificate of rating of the yacht entered.
3. The yachts, entered for this class must be placed at the disposal of the Jury at Amster-
dam for control before or during the races, from 3 days before the date, fixed for the first race.
4. If the Jury should state that a Yacht proves not to satisfy the International Regulations
or the measurements of the Certificate of Rating, this yacht will be irrevocably excluded from
participation in the Olympic races.
334 AMERICAN OLYMPIC COMMITTEE
(c) A competitor, giving up a race, or being excluded during a race, will be allotted a num-
ber of points, equal to the number of starters.
A competitor, who does not start in a face, will be allotted a number of points, equal to
the number of grouped competitors in his group.
(d) The Jury have the right to annul a trial race for a competitor and to allot him for that
trial race the average of the points, which have been and will be won by him in the previous
and following trial races. The Jury will only make use of this right, if in their opinion such
competitor has been severely damaged in the annulled trial race without his fault, i.e., by
another competitor, or by average.
(e) The ten competitors, who have received the lowest number of points in the trial races,
will compete in the final races. In the case of two or more competitors, receiving the same
number of points, the list of acquired points will decide according the system, defined for the
Int. 8-Meter-Class; and the Int. 6-Meter-Class.
The ten competitors, mentioned in 3e, will compete in four final races according to the sys-
tem, defined for the races in the Int. 8-Meter-Class and the Int. 6-Meter-Class.
4. Should it be impossible for the Jury to decide according to the above system, an extra
race will be sailed between those competitors, about which no decision could be given.

The entrance-form must contain:
1. The name of the National Authority, who has chosen the representative and his sub-
stitute.

SKELETON RACE
NINTH OLYMPIAD 341
Badger and Mr. Turner finished high on the list, but not with-
in the points.
In the mixed couples, a remarkable performance was given
by Miss Joly and Mr, Brunet of France, Miss Loughran and
Mr. Badger finishing a close fourth to the two Austrian
couples, Miss Brunner and Mr. Wrede; Miss Schulz and Mr.
Kaiser.
Mr. Henry W. Howe as President of the U. S. Figure
Skating Association and Mr. Joel Liberman, its designated
judge, were given every facility to officiate and every demand
or suggestion of the United States representative was graci-
ously received.
Speed Skating
As with the figure skaters, so with the speed skaters. The
best In the world were present and competed.
In addition to this, in the 10,000 meters race, Jaflee was
drawn against Evenson of Norway, the champion, and after a
great race, won from him by not less than 10 meters and made
the fastest time of any of the time trials which had been held.
One more trial was skated after that of the Jaflee and Evien-
son's trial and then it was officially announced through the
loud speaker that the race had been postponed. This was be-
tween one and two o'clock. Later in the afternoon, news-
papermen informed the writer that they had heard that the
race had been or was to be declared off and that Mr. Jaffee's
time would not stand. Acting upon this information and at
the suggestion of Mr. Hanson, the Manager of the skating
team, a protest was lodged. Dr. Messerli, the Secretary of
the Swiss Olympic Committee, the Marquis de Polignac of
the International Olympic Committee and many others all
stated to the writer that his protest was well taken and his
suggestions timely.
It happens that the Jury on the ground and the Jury of
Appeal consisted of one man, a situation to which the Swiss
Olympic Committee had taken objection on the ground that
all of the other International Federations had appointed three
men for its Jury of Appeal. Mr. Salchow, the President of
the International Skating Union, informed me that the matter
could be appealed to the Council of the Federation, which will
meet somewhere on the Continent in May. I strongly advise
that the United States Skating Association make such an ap-

(3 points earned.)

Nathaniel W. Niles
There were thirteen final entries in this event.
The figure skaters therefore earned a total of ten points
for the United States in the Olympic Games.
The April, 1928 edition of "Skating", the official maga-
zine of our association, contains a detailed article on the
Games, with a full record of the scores.
The contribution of the figure skaters to the Olympic
fund was $7000 gross, which was derived principally through
receipts from two carnivals, one held in New York at the
Madison Square Garden and the other in Boston at the Arena,
both under the auspices of the United States Figure Skating
Association. This sum was entirely dispersed to the six
skaters named above and to the writer who was nominated as
judge, representing the United States in figure skating at the
Olympic Games.
Our association entered into a financial campaign im-
mediately after the entries had been approved by the commit-
tee and upon the assurance that one-half of the expenses
would be contributed by the Olympic Committee, provided
our association raised the remaining necessary funds.
They also gave to the training, etc., for these games their full
and undivided support, I cannot speak too highly of them
and even the results achieved do not tell the full story of their
sincere efforts.
I think it is only justified that I call attention to the fact
that the training and participation of these teams did not cost
the Olympic Committee one penny in the way of expenses.

428 AMERICAN OLYMPIC COMMITTEE
REPORT OF THE
INTERCOLLEGIATE FINANCE COMMITTEE
The Intercollegiate Finance Committee was formed in November,
1927, by vote of the American Olympic Committee for the purpose of
raising funds from and solidifying interest in the Olympic movement
at the colleges and universities of the country. The open break of
certain college groups with the administrative forces controlling
American participation in the Olympic Games gave rise to the necessity
of enlisting college men who would be able to convince their college
friends of the real value of the Olympic games. To the end that this
might be accomplished a committee was formed under the active leader-
ship of Stanley dej. Osborne, recently graduated from Harvard, and
with the writer as chairman. This Committee consisted of graduates
of various large universities who were interested in the movement and
also of five undergraduates, G. Norman Scott of Cornell; Willard J.
Slagle of M. I. T.; John J Tucker of Princeton; Richard L. Kennedy
of Princeton, and Lee O. Combs of Southern California, who gave full
or part of their time to this effort.
The work was carried out by various methods. First and foremost
by personal interviews with the heads of the larger institutions. To
this end a member of the Intercollegiate Finance Committee interviewed
representatives of every large college in the East, West and Middle
West. It is fair to say that every large college of any importance was
approached personally by some member of the Committee. The general
disaffection with the administration of American participation in the
Olympic Games was halted in part and at least until the end of the
games, and almost every large college contributed something.
Secondly, printed or personal letters were sent by the chairman and
vice-chairman to more than 100 women's colleges and preparatory
schools, and over 600 to colleges not interviewed. Also, appeals were
sent out to about 65,000 graduates of our leading universities from the
graduate lists, from the graduate club lists and from the various lists
on the files of the Intercollegiate Association in New York.
Thirdly, a small bulletin, the "Intercollegiate Olympic Journal," was
published to the end of acquainting a large number of people with the
work being done in the colleges and the final issue of which contains
this article.
Fourthly, the vice-chairman, Mr. Osborne, traveled to several parts
of the country for the purpose of speaking at meetings of various college
conferences and in large measure succeeded in bringing many of these
back into line despite their previous open break with the Olympic
Association.
Without expense to the committee, several of its members were, sent
to Amsterdam and there worked in various capacities, especially in the
carrying out of office and other detailed work which seemed necessary
to the Committee.
As for results, the accompanying financial statement will show that
over $34,000 was raised, with a net return of over $29,000 to the
American Olympic Committee. The expenses seem large for the net
return, especially when it is considered that all services were donated
and disbursements for general office space and similar purposes speci-
fically contributed, and also that the cost of the Olympic Journal was
a special contribution of the I.C.A.A A.A.; but by word of explanation
it may be stated that in this work where many personal interviews were
necessary a member of the Committee well acquainted with all angles
of the Olympic movement had to be on hand, and this necessitated
many miles of travel. By suggestion of General MacArthur, it was not
