As the report further showed that only 16,550 athletes were registered for competition In the Amateur Athletic union meets, there may be ground for suspicion of. the correctness of the total of mors than 3,000,000. At the same time It 1s to be remembered that the contestants in the Mg meets have won their right to compete by a process of elimination In preliminary triala. There are many candidates for place, and these are given tryouts" with tha aim of getting the beet ones to. strive for the banners, medals, cups and ribbons which on awarded as the prises. The age of participation ranges widely from the youth In the grammar school to the man of middle life who keeps up hla Interest In athletics from genuine love of sport Even when thee conditions are borne In mind the statement nf totals Is astonishing. Counting out half the population because of aex and making allowance for the boys below the grammar school grade, a showing of nearly two and a half millions is remarkable. When those engaged In tlie excepted branches of sport mentioned In the report are added, and the thousands of men who are athletes for the money thus to be earned, .the already large total Is welled to a much greater figure. If we include the membership of athletic clubs all over the .country and that larger body of cltlsens once Interested aa boys In grammar school and high school or aa students In college, the total will be even greater. Even then It will not Include many thousands who enjoy athletic sports without having close personal association as participants on track or field. The eleven bodies which contribute to the Amateur Athletic union report property devoted to athletics valued at Chicago. With every allowance, however, and adding the valuations of property used for professional contests, the aum of money Invested In facilities for athletic sports is a large one. The Americana are an athletic people. They do not continue their participation Into middle life, aa is done In England, but there are thousands who carry Into active business the principles of health which are taught them la gymnasiums and on the athletic field. It la not difficult to mention many evils attendant upon undue Interest In tha subject. The opponents of the athletes have plenty of argument which have weight. The meeting of the Athletle union, however, has given Its friends their chance to show statistics. That these are so surprisingly large aa to excite much comment, no one will deny. If the Interest in athletics to producing a better race of Americans and healthier cltloenshlp, aa many sincerely believe, then there to additional ground for enthusiasm over tha remarkable bowing that has been made.
