OLYMPIC TEAM
SJILSJOTOIN
ONBOARDBDAT
NEW YORK. June 14.—Bearing the
most notable collection of American
athletes ever assembled, the liner Fin
land sailed for Stockholm today with
the team which will represent the
United States in the Olympic gatpes.
James E. Sullivan, i'nited States com
missioner' at the games, said that the
team was the finest he had ever seen
anywhere, and that the members should
annex 80 per cent of the points
The athletes will continue their train
ing on board the ship, under direction
of Head Trainer Mike Murphy, and
when they get to Sweden they should
be in excellent condition.
Wil! Bring Home the Bacon.
“Bring home the bacon.” screamed
some lusty-voiced man on the pier as
the ship was getting under way.
“We will.” came hack the response.
The athletes will have no difficulty
about training facilities on the ship. A
running track has been laid out and a
swimming tank built. Pits for the
jumpers and weight men also were in
stalled.
In addressing the men. Colonel Rob
ert. M. Thompson, president of the
American Olympic committee, said:
Are Sportsmen, Not Sports.
"Be champion gentlemen, as well as
champion athletes We are going to
Stockholm as sportsmen, not as sports.
Let that spirit prevail.”
The athletes reported at Chelsea pier
at 8:30 o'clock, and the ship left soon
afterward Each of the team was pre
sented with a uniform, consisting of a
blue blazer with an American shield
over the left breast/, white trousers,
white shoes and a white cap.

PRINCETON HAS A CINCH
WITH YALE IN FINAL GAME
NEW YORK, June 14 -With a score
of 19 runs to 6, Princeton defeated Yale
at American league park and won the
baseball series of 1912 Ten thousand
partisans, about equally divided, crowded
the stands and bleachers to encourage
their respective teams.
Princeton won by good batting Yale
was painfully weak in her pitchers, call
ing upon five twiners, none of whom was
effective. The Blue opened with two runs
in the first inning, but when the second
session had been played and the Orange
and Black got through with its # pounding
of Hartwell, the score stood 9 to 2 in
favor of the Tigers Yale made desperate
efforts to retrieve, but her batsmen could
not solve Lear's delivery Four more
runs was the best they could gather in the
next seven innings, while Princeton add
ed ten to its already formidable lead.
