...Homestead, Pa., who took Miss Madison's place at the outdoor championships last summer by winning four championships, found her position challenged by a Seattle girl. Olive McKean, coached by the Washington Athletic Club's famed Ray Daughters. There was another new name last week- Mrs. Arthur Jarrett-but sports-page readers had no trouble identifying her as Eleanor Holm.
