OLYMPIAD
NEW ZEALAND MAY GO ONLY IF TEAM IS REALLY GOOD Wellington, Nov. 16. “Nobody will be sent merely for the purposes of representing New Zealand, ' said Mr. 1. N. Rundle, chairman ot the management committee of the New Zealand Olympic Association to-day. when reviewing ►Auckland criticisms of the advisability of sending a team to Amsterdam to represent the Dominion next year. “Only those athletes who are con-' sidered to have a chance of reaching the final of their event will be sent, and to reach an Olympic final means that a man is one of the six best athletes in his class in the world. In such a case sending him to the Games will be well worth while. The money which the association is asking is designed not to send a team of about four players as has been suggested, but a team of 20 to 24.” frenchTlnanceb.
Paris, Nov. 16. The Senate voted £16,600 to defray the cost of French participation in the Amsterdam Olympiad.—(A, and N.Z.)
