out to win tli - m xt Olympiad and.
If the trh k it not pulled off. it will
not bo the fault of the English pad
lie in general which is giving Ms
money to send a crack team to 1 he*
gantrs in l!)2t. It has boon general
ly admitted that England has lo3t
much of hor athletic supremacy dur
ing the last decade, and to regain
this a leading London paper has
started a campaign for $200,000, the
sum estimated as neressary to get
a team together and send it to the
Paris games next year.
The campaign has been on only
weeks, but the flood of small checks
has been continuous, and many of
the large English firms have sent in
donations. Efforts already are being
made to form the Olympic team, the
training of which is to begin at once
under the supervision of the best
English coaches.
The first recruit of the team is
Harold Abrahams, the Cambridge
captain and star ntlilete, who has
signed a contract to appear at the
Olympiad.
