Excerpt from Who's Who in American Sports Sports editors, college and high school coaches athletic directors, alumni secretaries, in fact a veritable army Of well-wishers and helpers, as well as the entire staff Of the National Biographical Society set to work in the early summer Of 1927 to compile a list Of eligibles for this publication. At that time there were no available records suitable for presentation. More than names were collected, arranged and classified. Questionnaires were sent to all of these, and over responded with partial or complete data. After careful consideration sketches were approved for inclu sion in this volume. The publishers realize that many sketches worthy Of this distinction have been omitted. This is by no means an oversight, as it has been exceedingly difficult to trace and contact a large number who are not only eligible, but who are among the outstanding athletes Of the nation. In a few instances we have given pictorial recognition without the accompanying sketches. As rapidly as these men and women can be reached, their names and records will be filed for future editions.
