Ways and Means to Send the Boys Across.

Messrs. A. W. Covey, St. John; A. C. Mlillie, Halifax and S. F. Doyle. Charlottetown, lending of- ficials of the Maritime Province Branch of the. Amateur Athletic Union of Canada and members of Canada's Olympic Committee met with the Abegweit executive last night in the Board of Traderoolns to discuss ways and means of rais- ing sufficient funds to- send a Maritime track team to Paris to compete in the World‘, Olympic games this summfcr. Mr. P‘. Hen ‘ y, president of the Abeg-

welt Club presided.

Mr. A. W. Covey was the first speaker of the evening who gave

a general outline of athletics in

the Maritlmes, speaking eloquent- iy on _ Prince Edward Island athletes and the envious position they hold in the different branches‘ of sport. He lhld particular, stress oh the Abcgweit Club and] its fostering of athletics ln this province. With regard to the Maritime track tesm the speaker thought our athletes by the seas would give s. good account of themselves and was safe in saying‘ they would compare favorably with the other provinces of the Domin-

n.

With reference to financing a truck team Mr. Covey stated that already New Brunswick and Nova Scotla have responded nobly and he felt that Prince Edward island be found wanting. thousand dollars is yet required to make the" total amount decided upon and he ielt sure that the ‘necessary funds would be gladly contributed.

Speaking of Phil McDonald, Mr. Covey said while in conversation witlafiantain (ftffilellus recently, the" ch slated that. in looking‘ over thy other athletes in Canada he considered Phil the choice in the 400 metres hurdles and it is now practically assured that Mc- Donald will go to Paris Capt. Cornelius further stated that the island hurdler may break the world's record for the distance.

With reference to sending Geo. Walker, Maritime long distance bike champion to Paris as a Cana- dian representative, Mr. Covey said the committee would be only too pleased, providing adequate funds could he raised for the pur- pose, as bicycle riding is not in- cluded in tile Donilillon events and provisions were ‘not made for some; but. if a hearty response was mode financially, Walker would go. lr concluding the speaker paid s. glowing tribute to iiarney Francis. local lndlan mller saying that Francis had the goods which only needed developing and his prowess on the track .s only beginning. He expected Barney would make good in his training.
