Comment on Sullivan’s Return Clarifies Olympic Judging
The piece argues James E. Sullivan of the Amateur Athletic Union spoke plainly about Olympic officiating after the 400 metre race. It notes no official foul existed, but rules interpretation allowed disqualification or voiding the race. It praises American athletes and recalls other track and yachting feats, including Dixie II’s Harmsworth trophy win and Wimbledon style tennis results with Wright and Little.
