    HISTORY OF THE DECATHLON at U.S. OLYMPIC TRIALS, By: Frank Zarnowski 58 Second Ave Emmitsburg, MD 28727 Copyrighted, © 1992, 2004, 2008, 2012, 2016 INTRODUCTION: The decathlon (and pentathlon) was added to the Olympic program in 1911 and first contested in Stockholm, 1912. In 1912 nations were allowed as many as twelve decathlon entries. In the U.S. Trials were held in 3 parts of the country but were not binding. In these days, it seems fair to say, US track and field was dominated by the New York faction of the AAU, and at times, Olympic selections appeared arbitrary. From 1920 to 1928 each nation was allowed 4 entrants in the Olympic decathlon. In 1932 the number was paired to 3. After 1924 the Olympic pentathlon was dropped. World Wars canceled the Olympic Games and Trials in 1916, 1940 and 1944. World records have been set at the U.S. Olympic decathlon Trials on five occasions: 1912 J. Austin Menual/U. Chicago ; 1936 Glenn Morris/Denver AC; 1952 Bob Mathias/Stanford; 1960 Rafer Johnson/Striders, 1976 Bruce Jenner/San Jose Stars and by Ashton Eaton/Ore TC in 2012. Each entry offers a short review of the competition, usually a photo of the winner, a poster of that year‟s Olympic Games, Complete results, meet records and a brief explanation of how each American did at the games themselves. This year’s meet in Eugene, Oregon (the seventh time the Decathlon Trials have been held in Eugene) will be the 24rd US Olympic Decathlon Trials. Over the years Amateur Athletic Union, The Athletics Congress and USA Track and Field (all national federations) have conducted the decathlon Trials for the U.S.

    University of Nevada, Reno Indianness and Expectation: Jim Thorpe and Billy Mills as Iconic Native American Athletes A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History by Andrew Duncan McGregor Dr. Richard O. Davies/Thesis Advisor August, 2011 Copyright Andrew Duncan McGregor 2011 All Rights Reserved UNIVERSITY OF NEVADA THE GRADUATE SCHOOL RENO We recommend that the thesis prepared under our supervision by Andrew Duncan McGregor entitled Indianness and Expectation: Jim Thorpe and Billy Mills as Iconic Native American Athletes be accepted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS Richard O. Davies, Ph.D., Advisor Thomas E. Smith, Ph.D., Committee Member Alicia M. Barber, Ph.D., Committee Member Greta E. de Jong, Ph.D., Committee Member M. Eleanor Nevins Ph.D., Graduate School Representative Marsha H. Read, Ph. D., Associate Dean, Graduate School August, 2011 i ABSTRACT This thesis connects and explains the experiences of iconic athletes Jim Thorpe and Billy Mills by analyzing the cultural and political structures that frame the Native American experience. At the turn of the twentieth century progressive ideas of assimilation were fused with Muscular Christian views of sport in the Native American boarding school system. As a result, sports emerged as a middle ground where Native American athletes were able to coexist, cooperate, and assert their identity in broader American society. As the only two Native American Olympic Gold Medalists, Thorpe and Mills actively challenged the representations of Native Americans. Their lives however, were vastly different. Changes in the federal Indian policies distinguish the experiences of Thorpe and Mills.
