It would be interesting to find out where
the biographical information came from.
Perhaps his Olympic paperwork?
Valarie
Caesar Mannelli
Full name: Caesar J. Mannelli
Gender: Male
Height: 5'7" (171 cm)
Born: July 7, 1897 in Forli, Forli-Cesena, Italy
Died: May 3, 1936 in Mayberry Slough, Antioch, California, United States
Country: United States
Sport: Rugby
Medals: 1 Gold (1 Total)

Caesar Mannelli was from San Francisco and attended Santa Clara University. He was a good rugbyist and an excellent basketball player, but baseball was his best sport. He had a tryout with the minor league Oakland Oaks, but it was several years after his competitive prime and many people thought he could have played major league ball, had he started earlier. Mannelli later worked for the city of San Francisco as an engineer.

Forlì is wrong, and his birthname was Cesare.
