PICTURES OF OLYMPIC GAMES IN DEMAND The demand for Spalding'· Official Athletic Almanac for 1909, edited by James E. Sullivan, United State» Com missioner to the Olympic Games of 1908, necesslated a second edition of the book within a week of Its publication. The scene» at the Olympic Games have attracted a great deal of attention, six ty or more pages of the Almanac being devoted to that portion alone. Some of the most interesting are those depicting Dorando's heroic attempt to finish the Marathon. The photographs explain clearly whv it was necessary for the American Committee to protest the de cision of the judges and referee In awarding the rare to Dorando. The first photo shows Dorando receiv ing attention from British Olympic of ficials, Perry, the groundsman, Being strongly in evidence. Another one shows poor Oorando being supported between two officials, Messrs. Andrews and Bul ger. The third picture shows him be ing led around the track by Mr. An drews, the clerk of the course, and close ly attended by two other British Olynv êic officials. Ια the next photograph orando is seen stretched on the track receiving attention from Dr. Bulger and another British official, while Mr Andrews stands on guard. The next picture shows Doranao lying on the track, being attended by Dr. Bulger, with British officials, including Secre tarv Fisher, who was one of tho*e who awarded the race to Dorando, although ho had received assistance. On page 130 of the book is the most interesting picture of the Dorando series. Dorando has collepsed eighty yards from the fin ish. Dr. Bulger is examining his heart, another British official is shown in the act of giving him medical attention, while Mr. Davidson, who had just en tered the arena, is anxiously looking to ward the gate with Mr. Andrews. To those who were at the Olympic Games the anxiety of the two officials is easily explained—at that particular moment John J. Hayes, the American winner, was just entering the arena. The se quel is shown In the next photograph; Dorando being carried across the line by J. M. Andrews, clerk of the course of the Marathon race. Notwithstanding tho fact that these sceues were witnessed by all the British Olympic officials, tlioy nevertheless gave the race to Dorando and forced tho American Committee to enter a protest, which should not have been necessary. On page 134 Hayes is shown finishing the Marathon race; this photograph wae takon when he was at least sixty yards from the finish and shows that Hayes was running very well indeed for a man who has gone the full Mara thon distance and proves conclusively that he did not require tho slightest help to finish the raco. Spalding's Athletio Almanac is for sale by all newsdealers, or will l>e sent post paid for 10 cents by the publisher, the American Sports Publishing Com pany, 21 Warren street, New York.
