<span>During the 1920s sport became popular with the great mass of the people for the first time. For most Americans baseball became the craze. it was a sport in which working class men could excel without any expensive equipment or training. All that was needed was a 'good eye' for the ball. The greatest hero of all was Babe Ruth (right), who became the highest paid sportsmen of his day in 1927 when he earned $80,000. Boxing also became a very popular sport, largely because of the rivalry between Jack Dempsey (left) and Gene Tunney. Dempsey, like Babe Ruth, was an ordinary working man. They both seemed to represent the idea of the USA. It did not matter what your background was, if you had the talent and the ability, you could succeed. But sport was not the only new form of entertainment in the 1920s. Dancing became very popular. Not only were there new dances, but for the first time night clubs and dance halls opened that catered for thousands of people. Dancing competitions were organised that went on for days. But the greatest form of entertainment of all was the motorcar. It offered a new form of freedom that people had never experienced before. For the first time Americans were able to explore their own country in comfort at a time when the government was just beginning to build freeways (motorways) all over the country.</span>

Explanation:

The Treaties of Velasco

On April 21, 1836, the forces of the Mexican army under General Santa Anna were handed a decisive defeat by the Texans at San Jacinto. Dressed as a common soldier, Santa Anna attempted to flee, but was taken prisoner the following day.

On May 14, Santa Anna signed two peace treaties with interim Texas president David G. Burnet. The public treaty consisted of ten articles; a second, secret treaty consisted of six additional articles. The secret agreement was to be carried out when the public treaty had been fulfilled.

The public treaty provided that hostilities would cease and that Santa Anna would withdraw his forces below the Rio Grande and not take up arms again against Texas. In addition, he also pledged to restore property that had been confiscated by the Mexicans. Both sides promised to exchange prisoners on an equal basis. The Texans would send Santa Anna back to Mexico and would not pursue the retreating Mexican troops.

In the secret agreement, the Texans agreed to release Santa Anna immediately in exchange for his pledge to use his influence to secure Mexican recognition of Texas independence. Santa Anna would not only withdraw all troops and not take up arms against Texas again, but would arrange for a favorable reception by the Mexican government of a Texas mission and a treaty of commerce. The Texas border would be the Rio Grande.

On May 26, General Vicente Filisola began withdrawing Mexican troops in fulfillment of the public treaty. However, the Texas army blocked Santa Anna's release by the Texas government. Moreover, the Mexican government refused to accept the treaties on the grounds that Santa Anna had signed them as a captive. Since the treaties had now been violated by both sides, they never took effect. Mexico was not to recognize Texas independence until the U.S.-Mexican War was settled by the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo in 1848.
