The athletes who make up the little army bent on Olympic conquest. although there are some old familiar faces among them, are for the most part making their first appearance in these international games. Line-up of Party Today’s contingent comprises 110 track and field stars, forty-two men swimmers and water polo players, twenty-four women swimmers and livers, eighteen swordsmen, two women fencehs. twenty-five boxers, fifteen oarsmen, sixteen wrestlers, eleven gymnasts, twelve coaches, ten trainers, six rubbers, besides officials and some 250 friends and relatives of the athletes. Only twent • of these track and field stars making the- trip this year did so in 1920 when the Ameriaan team went to Antwerp. Three “Extras" Besides the survivors of Friday's and Saturday s gruelling final trials at Cambridge, three additional members of the American team have been named. They are C. F. Gates, Princeton hammer thrower; Ben Owen. Red and Blue pole vaulter, and Basil Irwin. Newark A. C.. who will compete in the 3.000 meffr steeplechase. The team this year looks s’ronger than any that yet has sailed in quest of Olympic honors. In the sprints this country had an array of talent which should insure victory in both the iOO-nierers and 200-meters event, as well as the 400 meters relay. There is no doubt but that Jackon V. Schole of the New York A C. is the fastest man today. Indianapolis has an added interest in the Olympics this time with three of her athletes on the Paris squad. Doolittle of Butler College will run in the 5.0,.'0 meter event. George Mulholland will compete in the lightheavyweight boxing and Euphrasia Donnelly will swim in the 100-meter free style for women. Other Hoosier athletes are Oherst of Notre Dame in the javelin throw Johnson of Wabash in the 10,000meter run and Juday of Ft. Wayne, Ind., in the high jump. BIG STARS ENTER WOODSTOCK MEET .Western Tennis Tourney ! Here Takes on Class, The Western tennis championships to be held at the Woodstock Club here on June 30 took on added interest with the announcement that Gerald Patterson, captain of the Australian Davis Cup team, would compete. Tilden also is en tered in this meet. B. I. C. Norton lie brilliant star, formerly of South Africa, also sent in his entry- Some of the other Australians may compete also. The Western meet is profiting by the clay court National championI ships which will he held in St. Louis the week following the tourney here. It begins to look as though the Western will draw about as many National stars is the clay court I championships have brougnt here in | the past two years. With Tilden and Patterson com- ! peting the tournament is assured of | plenty of class as they are two of j the world’s best.

INDIANS BEAT MILLERS AND GAIN ON LEADERS Week-end of Thrills at Washington Park Petty and Jones Shine Sunday—Twin Bill Tuesday, The “House of One Million Thrills”—that’s Washington Park. If you are over3v r eight, don't buy anti-fat. Go out and sit in at one of the Tribe’s hall games. You’ll lose the surplus watching Ownie Bush’s Indians struggle. Saturday the home crew won in the ninth 05'er St. Paul, 4 to 3. and Sunday the Hoosiers cooped, 10 to 9, from the Minneapolis Millers in fourteen innings. If the thrillers continue Manager Bush will look like a skeleton.

Two games were scheduled Sunday, .but rain forced a forty-minute check, and when the teams finally finished the first affair there wasn't sufficient time left to permit the staging of the second battle. The postponed contest will be played Tuesday In a double-header. Therefore the remainder of the series calls for one conflict today and two tomorrow. Two Games Tomorrow Tuesday is "ladies' day” and “kids' day" and the twin bill is expected to attract a whale of a week-day crowd to Washington Park. The Tribe's recent dash has cut the Saints’ lead and Nick Allen's club is now only three games in front of Bush’s second-placers. It's a terrific race. Jay Kirke of “you-do-th e-coo king I 11-do the-hitting" fame blasted a home-run in the ninth inning Sunday and put the Millers back In the ball game. The bases were filled at the time. Ned Niles now knows better than to serve J-ay one in the groove. Rorideau, pinch hitter, drove in the tying run and then the clubs battled five extra rounds before Johnny Jones slammed one for two bases and scored Krueger, who had walked. Petty Stops ’Em Eller relieved Niles in the ninth and then Petty relieved Eller. Jess was the same old puzzle and it was his twirling that saved the day for the Indians. He got credit for the victory, making eleven wins for him this season. At the rate the Tribe southpaw is pitching the big league club owners probably will stage a “Petty Derby” this fall and he may graduate into the "$50,000 beauty" class. Kirke got four hits Sunday.
