Americans Oppose Change in Amateur Rules
United States officials led by Murray Hulbert oppose any shift in amateur eligibility that would allow athletes to draw compensation while competing. Hulbert, en route to Prague for IOC and amateur federation talks, warned such rules could compromise sport. He noted the US will not pursue the 1928 Games if Amsterdam resigns, and Los Angeles is set for 1932 with no plan for back-to-back hosts. Ugo Frigerio, Olympic walking champion, sailed for Italy today seeking return next winter.
