If you cannot run, but have a friend who thinks he can run, read this to him. On May 24th the Times-Journal news- paper of Fort William pulls off its Annual Ten Mile Road Race, open only to Ama- teurs. I want to have Dryden in this event. It may be we haven't a man in this part of the country who can run ten miles. It's along distance, even on a bicycle. Then again, we may have some fellow who can run rings around anyone in Fort William. So that is what I want to do--to find someone. Can you help me ? Ia mworking through the Dryden Am- ateur Athletic Association, President, M. D Hambly, Secretary, H. R. Dorken. 3 We will stage a 5 mile race for Thurs- | day afternoon, May 6th. Entries must be in the Secretary's hands by April 30th. « The winner of this race will go to Fort William, with the best wishes of Dryden and the District. Now, where do I come in? -- I cannot run myself; I never could. And there was a time when I didn't have to run from anything; but never mind, that is another story. I will try to do my part however. I will pay the expenses to Fort William for the winning runner and his attendant, or arrange that the Association does it, so as not to debar any amateur standing. : Now then, get busy; let us have a race on May 6th, and a contestant for the Fort William Times-J ournal race. The winner of this race can compete in the final trials for entrance in the Olym- pic team. Please take this up with Mr Hambly, Mr Dorken or myself. N.B.--This will be inserted in two weeks' issues, and the Association is taking further steps to create and interest. publicity 0 -E-D () ED () SD (EEE () SRI () SEED () GERD ()- GHD ) GD () GED () GID e =) - - ~ a (= ALFRED PIT Ont.
