The Library was established in the year 1892, and it Spalding's Athletic is conceded by all authorities that Library has been an important factor in the advance- ment of amateur sport in America. The millions that read the Library during the year will dis- will attest to its value. A glance at its index close the remarkable field that it covers. It is im- material what the pastime may be, you will find in Spalding's Athletic Library a reference to it, either in or a book devoted exclusively to that particular game in some of the books that cover many sports. books It has been the aim of the editors to make the Official, and they are recognized as such, all the im- portant governing bod'.es in America granting to the publishers of Spalding's Athletic Lil)rary the exclusive right to publish their ofticial books and official rules. The best authorities in each particular line of sport or physical culture, the men best qualified to write intelh- gcntly on their respective subjects, are selected to edit the books and, as a result, there is not another series in the world that is as authoritative as Spalding's Athletic Library. No matter what new game or form of sport be con- ceived or advanced, it is invariably the aim of the publishers to have a book on that sport. In that way Spalding's Athletic Library is in the field at the begin- ning of the sport, follows it year in and year out, and there can be no doubt whatever that the present pop- ularity of athletic sports can attribute the same to the Athletic "backing" it has received from Spalding's Library.

    Dise Show May Not Be Bigger Than 1968, but It Will Be Better, from the Industry's Point of View

    The 1969 edition of the Professional Golfers' Association Merchan- dise Show may not be bigger than 1968, but it will be better, from the industry's point of view. For the first time ever, the show will be closed to the public! This will undoubtedly cut down on traffic jams despite the fact that it will be held in the 45,000 square foot "big tent" again (150 feet by 300 feet). Also, although the number of booths will remain just about the same, 228 in '68, 226 this year, the number of companies and exhibitors are expected to increase. The Palm Beach Gardens show had 150 companies representing 875 exhibitors last year and at press time approximately 120 companies were already in the fold. Since this is a buying and ordering show only, the absence of the public and the expected increase of manufacturers displaying product lines (along with the current leisure time industry boom), should combine to make this one of the biggest dollar volume business meetings in recent times. A major part of last year's success reportedly was due to the stampede of alumi- num shaft orders. A PGA spokesman said a report also showed that some apparel sales were up 200 to 400 per cent and that a shoe manufacturer revealed a 30 per cent increase. The PGA is hoping that the closing of the show to the public will also enable it to take a count of the number of new products being shown—something that has never been tabulated. GOLFDOM, on the other hand, has been able to obtain an advance list of many of the expected show products and they follow.

Figures and/or pictures may be missing from this format of the document. *** Abstract: Shortly after he won three gold medals and one silver medal in distance running events at the 1912 Stockholm Olympics, Finland's Hannes Kolehmainen immigrated to the United States. He spent nearly a decade living in Brooklyn, plying his trade as a mason and dominating the amateur endurance running circuit in his adopted homeland. He became a naturalised US citizen in 1921 but returned to Finland shortly thereafter. During his American sojourn, the US press depicted him simultaneously as an exotic foreign athlete and as an immigrant shaped by his new environment into a symbol of successful assimilation. Kolehmainen's career raised questions about sport and national identity – both Finnish and American – about the complexities of immigration during the floodtide of European migration to the US, and about native and adopted cultures in shaping the habits of success.

The compilation of the All-America roster was supervised by a panel of analysts working in large part with the historical records contained in the files of the Dr. Baker Football Information Service. The roster consists of only those players who were first-team selections on one or more of the All-America teams that were selected for the national audience and received nationwide circulation. Not included are the thousands of players who received mention on All-America second or third teams, nor the numerous others who were selected by newspapers or agencies with circulations that were not primarily national and with viewpoints, therefore, that were not normally nationwide in scope.
