OLYMPIC GAMES
A good example

I have just returned from Chamonix, where the first Olympic Games will take place at the beginning of February. The municipality of Chamonix did things well: with a million and a half, which it borrowed from right and left, we built a gigantic ice rink in the most beautiful site imaginable. A little further down than Chamonix, in Les Bossons, an excellent ski jump is nearing completion; we can jump between 60 and 70 meters. On the other hand, a perfect bobsled run will soon be finished. I saw, finally, a fully constructed locker room, which can stand as a substitute for all the locker rooms in France.
This is what Chamonix did. Now will we be able to accommodate the approximately forty thousand people we are expecting? This is unlikely, because there are only three thousand beds in the city... Well, the main thing is that everything is ready for sports and athletes. The public, the good public, will sort it out.
If Colombes is as well arranged as Chamonix, everything will be perfect. But we doubt it... In any case, with Chamonix, foreigners will have excellent hors d'oeuvres. It's already that.

American participation

Except in weightlifting and freestyle wrestling, the Americans will take part, all the Olympic events and their teams are great; they will come with their best athletes. They will embark with the officials on the “American”, a boat that the American Olympic Committee has rented to bring its athletes to France. They will leave New York two days after their last selection test, that is to say June 9, 1924; if something happened, by chance at the last moment, they would leave eight days later.
The tennis players will leave a little earlier to take part in the Wimbledon tournament. America would also take part in the one-design yachting events.
Once in France, the American team will settle in the Château de Roquencourt and as the events progress, the participating athletes will settle in the five houses rented for the Americans in the Olympic village of Colombes.
