With Inter-faculty to be held at Kelburn Park on Saturday, the 18th March, Athletic Club members are busy working up to form in the hope of making the Tournament team. Last week they had the advantage of two nights' coaching by Mr. A. L. Fitch and hope that his services will again be available this week.
Although, unfortunately, freshers are not eligible for Tournament, it is hoped that large numbers will turn out and participate in the open events and special events for freshers. It should be remembered that the success of a meeting does not depend on the brilliance of a few competitors, but rather on the numbers and keenness of those competing. Accordingly a special appeal is made to all who are able to do so to compete on Saturday, as the Selection Committee will otherwise have no indication of what talent is offering, and in any case the available time for training is now short. The hurdle events will be held at Hataltal in the morning, and all other events, with the exception of the three-mile, will be at Kelburn Park in the afternoon commencing at 2.30 p.m. The three-mile is to be run at Kelburn on the following Monday at 5.30 p.m.
