Biography


In 1904 he won a silver medal in wrestling's heavyweight category, bronze medals in weightlifting's two hand lift and all-around dumbbell events and another bronze in the tug of war competition as a member of Southwest Turnverein of Saint Louis No. 2 team. He was a member of the St. Louis Southwest Turnverein team, being granted US citizenship in 1913. Although still a German citizen in 1904, the IOC had listed him as a member of the US delegation.[2] In the meantime, the IOC assigned the medals he had won in St. Louis in 1904 to the German delegation.[3][4][5] Despite taking last place in 9 out of 10 events in the dumbbell competition he was awarded the bronze as there were only 3 competitors. He is the only competitor to win a medal in three different sports at the same Olympic Games.
