WOMEN REVOLT.
Freer Athletic Costume Demand Granted.

Women athletes have just re- volted successfully—against rule which required them to wear tunics with elbow sleeves, and shorts which came to within four inches of the ground when the wearer was kneeling.
At a recent meeting of the Women's Amateur-Athletic Asso- ciation this rule was replaced by one which provides for a loose tunic
or blouse with sleeves at least one inch long and dark shorts reaching at least half-way to the knees. A track suit or wrap must be worn when the athlete is not actually competing in an event.
