SPORT NOTES The Olympic Games got their name, it is saki, from Olympia, Greece, where, according to history, they were first held. Some legends name Hercules, or Heracles, as the originator. By others the beginning Is ascribed to a footrace between Pelopa and Oenomaus. The latter, , was wont to challenge aspirants to his daughter's hand, beat them in . i a race and then stay them. His son- i , in-law would have to be no flat ' foot, for Oenomaus was possessed; of agile legs. In 776 B.C. the Games were placed on a permanent basis . by keeping the list of winners. They were continued at four-year Inter-! ' vals until AD. 393, (the 293rd Ol-i ympiai when they lapsed, to be re-1 newed at Athens in 189$. Today we ' enter on the first stage of the tenth modern Olympiad. j 1 The honor of winning an event In the ancient days was perhaps even greater than It Is today. In the 1 first place, there were only a few events, comprising footracing, boxing, wrestling, throwing a heavy stone, discus throwing, Javelin throwing and leaping as well as chariot and home races. Secondly, each competitor was trained under direct supervision of the author-Hies to Insure perfect condition. When a, winner returned home, the walls were torn down and he might be a civic guest for a year, with festivals In his honor. All his life ,he was venerated as an Olympic victor. Today the victor may not receive such honors, but the spec- .tacle itself, the news of which is flashed by wire and radio throughout the civilized world, outdoes anything the ancients had to offer.
