NEW ZEALAND ATHLETES
TRAINING FOR OLYMPICS MISS WILSON RUNS UNPLACED (United P.A.—By Telegraph — Copyright) (Australian P.A.—United Service) Reed. noon. LONDON, Monday. “Everybody is well, and training steadily. - There has been no heavy work thus far, but we hope to reach the zenith of our form at Amster-. dam,” says Mr. Amos, manager of the New Zealand Olympic team, summing up the team’s progress. The swimmers and runners will probably compete at several meet-
ings in London before their departure for Amsterdam on July 26. The athlete, Miss Norma Wilson, ran unplaced in the Middlesex Club’s handicap on Saturday, but Mr. Amos was not surprised at that, as she is not yet in championship condition. Mr. Amos is endeavouring to arrange a British athletes’ tour of New Zealand in 1929, but there is no announcement at present owing to financial problems, and a difficulty in securing leave. He is also negotiating for a month’s tour of the New Zealanders in South Africa on their way home.
