ARCHBISHOP JULIUS’ ATTACK.
(Per Press Association — Copyright.)
CHRISTCHURCH, May 20
Direct’ criticism of New Zealand people’s devotion to snort was expressed by Archbishop Julius in an address at the annual meeting of tiie New Zealand Sunlight League. "I believe that the tendency to break records, and the conduct of sport dees not, advance in our young people things we have most at heart,” declared the A'rchbishop. "A great deal of cur sport I am running down, because I believe it means simply this: That a few fellows are highly trained to play © game, and the rest sit around and howl, and think they are learning something, whereas actually they learn nothing and do nothing. "So it is with record-breaking. The few manage it, but the poor, dull and slow ones are left, as I was left at the bottom of the school.”
