Biographical data
Name: Hruška, Josef  
Born: 13 Apr. 1883
Died: 24 May 1949
 
Notes:
Di Felice has 'Hruska, Jan' at many events; Prager Presse of 15 Mar. 1931 (supplement, p.3) has 'Josef Hruška' in the Army Tournament of 1931 in Prague. Josef Hruška appears to be a lieutenant colonel of the Czech Air Force (see Wikipedia page). I find no reference to a Jan Hruška in that era (aside from Di Felice), so I will guess that these events should all be attributed to Josef Hruška.
