Scholarships in Physical Education.

Mr. A. L. Fitch, “Tony” to his friends, arrived in New Zealand a few weeks ago in readiness to resume his coaching engagement under the auspices of the Wellington and Canterbury Athletic Centres. During his holiday in the United States of America Mr. Fitch approached the authorities at the University of Southern California and was successful in securing two scholarships in Physical Education for the benefit of New Zealanders.

These scholarships will be available for a period of four years, but do not carry any financial backing. The selected students will have to make their own arrangements for travelling and boarding, but will be given every facility at the University, the most famous Physical Education University in the world. Mr. Fitch took the opportunity of attending a convocation of coaches in California and returns to New Zealand with several new ideas of athletics coaching, as well as helpful hints for the improvement of Physical Education.
