Olympic Games
Awarded to
Los Angeles
United States Awarded First!
Available Date by Inter
national Committee
—1932.
Rome, April 9.—The International |
Olympic committee here today award
«d the 1923 Olympic games to Los 1
Angelea, Cal.
This date was the first available
for the United States because the
1924 games go to Paris and the 1928
games to Amsterdam.
The award was made by the Inter
national Olympic committee.
The American claim for the next
available award for the games was:
presented to the committee by Wii 1
liarn May Garland of Los Angeles,
one of the American members of the j
bommittee.
“The United States thinks she has
k right to the next available games
because we are one of the great
kthletlc countries of the world." Mr.
Garland t-aid.
“In extending to the committee an
Invitation to come to Los Angeles, I i
extend it in behalf of the whole
United States. The welcome of the
entire country is contained in this
Invitation and we promise you the
greatest hospitality ever witnessed at ,
•tny Olympics. i
“We have built a gigantic stadium j
at Los Angeles, capable of seating j
7 5.900 people, and we can assure all j
the facilities worthy of a great ath f
latic event like the Olympics.
There was no discussion after Mr.
Garland's address, the committee vot
ing unanimously to accept the Invita- ,
fion.
Olympics of 1932
Second for U. S.
New Ytsrk. April 9.—Award of the
Olympic games of 1932 to Los An
geles by the International Olympic
committee today in Home marks the
final chapter of a vigorous campaign
hy American athletic authorities, par
i icularly those in California to bring
the international meet to this country.
Completing r great new stadium
and offering attractive inducements,
l*os Angelee interests made a bid for
the 1924 games about a year ago,
when it appeared Paris might, relin
quish its award because of difficulty
Jn obtaining needed governmental ap
propriations.
Shortly afterward, however. France
smoothed out its difficulties and Los
Angeles then sought the games for
1929. The International committee
meeting last June decided to accept,
instead, the bid of Amsterdam, Hol
land, explaining that a majority of
nations felt economic conditions would
make It impossible for European com
petitors to finance an invasion of
America.
At the same time the committee
sanctioned an international meet at
Los Angeles In September. 1923. to
dedicate the California city's new
stadium.
The 1932 Olympics will mark the
second time they have been held In
this country. The tlflrd meet after
the Olympic revival in 1S96 was held
in 8t. Louis in 190L when American
competitors, with the advantage of
contesting on their own soil, swept
the field.

Central High Strong
in Sprints and Weak
in Field--Meets Soon
WHK.N stunning the horizon for a team which looms as a contender for
the. state track and field championship, coat an optic on the Central
High school’s squad of hustling athletes.
According to the dope, so easily upset but yet furnishing the only basis
for drawing comparisons, the Purple pack has the city championship sew
ed away, provided It can develop field men which can contribute a few
points. -
Central had a walkaway in thed
city championships last year, and
seven of the men who were point re
corders In that eveht are back in the
abbreviated trunks this season. They
are Galloway. Torrison. Perclval,
Captain Pope, Lawson and Howell.
Price Holds Records.
The track squad also has been
strengthened by the enrollment of
Price, negro star from Tech, who was
that school's outstanding performer
last year.
Price's entrance at Central spots it
the 440Nind half mile race in the city
meet and probably first places at the
the state meet.
Price can show his spiked shoes to
any high school runner In the city
in the 440 and half mile, and is not
slow In the 220, having tied Beerkle.
Central's sprint star, over that dis
tance last year.
The swift hoofed negro holds the
city record in the two events to hie
liking, having made the 40 In 49 4 5
seconds and the half in 2:05 4-6, i.
His 440 city record is 2 3 5 seconds
under the state mark. However, ft
Is not official, as he t>eat the mark
on a straight track, while the track
record is over a circular course. He
also was aided by a high wind at his
back.
Weak In Field.
Central shapes up much stronger
In the dashes than In the flpld
events.
Galloway, star spruit man of lastj
year, Marrow, Solomon and Jones are
the cream of the talent working in ■
the century.
Solomon. Prico and Perclval are,
showing the wares that should entitle
them to regular posts on the half mile!
relay.
Lawson and Fettertnan hare chosen
endurance tests and aro seasoning i
themselves for mile grind.
The 220 has brought out Price, Solo
mon and Perclval.
Perclval.la the only runner working!
out in the 440 and half with Price,
Pope, Torrison, Marrow. Howell and'
Elliott are tho aspirants for tho field
squad. Their work has only been me
diocre to date.
, City Meet May 5.
The Central squad will get its first
actual competition in an interclass
meet to bo held Saturday, Ap.rll 21.
Tho following Saturday they will
journey to Fremont to engage In a
quadrangular meet which will Include
Lincoln, Fremont and Tech or Wahoo.
The city meet Is scheduled for May
5 and the state tests the following
week.

If Paddo<k should run in the
east," writes a California friend,
'that section will find out whether or
not he is entitled to his records.
There isn’t a runner in the country
wha can touch him."
Then followed the comment of two
old-titpe trainers, who believe that
I-ecotKy would beat him, and one or
two others match him stride for
stride. And so it goes, w;»h no chance
for proof as long as Paddock, He

’ Some discussion has arisen as to
whether or not firm discipline and
hard training are the best ways to
handle a major league ball club with i
a seven-month schedule to face. One
of the best answers we know is John
J. JdcGraw. He has believed both m

Jock Improves
Sarazen’s Golf
Game on Tour
nr mvik j. miAii.
New York, Apiil 9—With neither
swank, nor undue modesty, Gene
Sarazen informed the writer that he
considered himself better golfer at
the moment than he was last sum
mer when he won two great cham
pionships at Skokie- and uakmont.
He made no e\tra\again claims about
his ability to win the British open
title, nor did he predict that he felt
equal to retaining hla American
championships, but he does feel that
his game Is sounder and more verea
tilt than never before and said as
much.
Sarazen does not tak^ personal
credit for this alleged improvement
which be says rs a» much mental as
physical. He frankly gives that die
Unction to Jock Hutchison, w,'h
whom he was associated, tn tour,
during the winter months.
Hutchison Responsible.
"I learned more about scientific
golf on that tour than In all the
previous years I had played the
game.” Sarazen said. " ‘Hutch* was
responsible. He took me in hand
like the wonderful fellow he is and
taught me all the tricks that his years
of experience have brought him.
'1 consider mtself a much better
golfer than I was at Skokie and Onk
mont last summer. This does not
mean that I will repeat n.y surcesses
of 1922. That would be almost ex
pecting too much. It is only that I
have come to know the why and the
wherefore of the game, something
that I never bothered about before
I may not win but this will not b#
because I am not a proved golfer.”
lies Spoon Now.
That the object of this indictment
does not concur is more or less nat
ural, but he can muster rather plaus
ible arguments to prove his point.
First of all, he claims he has re
tained every essential of his 1022. plus
