Amsterdam, May 15. — The South African Olympic Committee chairman, Mr Frank Braun, commenting on the expulsion of his country from the Olympic Gaines, said: "A11 our friends have been saying how sorry they are, and regret the decision. Lance Cross (New Zealand) and the Marquess of Exeter (Britain) both made a terrific plea for us, I understand. The Australian delegate, Lewis Luxton, got up from a sick bed to vote for South Africa. Although he was ill, he got up to vote."
