I am going to attempt expansion of this page from stub status. If anyone has any good sources for information I would be very glad to hear from you.VaDawn (talk) 22:06, 22 September 2015 (UTC)Reply
Currently I can find no substantiation for the statement that Fles served on the 1928 Olympic Committee. I only find references to his participation in 1936 as "a member of the Executive Committee of the exhibition Olympiad Under Dictatorship, organized as an alternative to the connected to the Olympic Games in Berlin Art Olympiad. In the recommendation committee were among others Henri Polak, Willem Banning and William Flies." — Preceding unsigned comment added by VaDawn (talk • contribs) 18:20, 25 September 2015 (UTC)Reply
