voted in the Olympic Congress held in
Paris in 1913. No event must be

The International Committee has de
creed that the games will not count as
regular and the records made will not
be described as Olympic records.
Berlin Was Ready for the Games
The cancellation of the Berlin fran
chise to hold the Olympic games in
1916 will be peculiarly humiliating to
the German capital, since as early as
the summer of 1913 the German "com
mittee had not only worked out all
plans for tihe games, but had completed
the superb stadium, one of the most
magnificent ever devised, with all its
approaches and accessories, with inns
and restaurants, while the city of Ber
lin had extended its subway system
and had enlarged the suburban rail
road accommodations in the way of
station and trackage to accommodate
the expected rush of visitors.

to Mr. Whitney. This probably will
take place Saturday. The contract price
