New York July 15. The U S Olympic team of 382 members boarded the liner at noon for Berlin after private and public help covered most expenses.

The women’s track and field and men’s field hockey teams met funding tightness but solved it, the waterfront buzzing with bunting and flags as officials, contestants, and press filled the ships.
