Jean Thompson placed 4th in the finals in the 1928 Olympic Games, which were the first to accept women athletes in open competition. Queen of the track An address and presentation to Miss Jean Thompson on her success in making the Olympic Team, June 27, 1928. We, the Mayor and Council of the Town of Penetanguishene, repres- enting as we do, the people of this municipality, do hereby extend to you, our very sincere congratulations on your success in winning the 800 metres race, in the world's record time of two minutes and 26 seconds, at the Olympic trials held last Saturday, at the Varsity Stadium, Toronto, thereby gaining the right to representing Canada at the Olympic games, to be held at Amsterdam in the near future, and we also take this opportunity to wish you every success in your en- deavour to maintain Canada's prestige in the world of sport, by winning the laurel wreath, em- blematic of all that is best in amateur sport. It is no light task that you are called upon to assume, for you will be in competition with the. finest athletes that the world can produce in a strange land, and before a cosmopolitan audience, but you will be fortified by the knowledge that we, in Canada in general, and in Penetanguishene in par- ticular, will be thinking of you and earnestly praying for your success. If the knowledge that you have the very best wishes for your welfare and success (of all who know you, either by personal acquaintance or by repute), will assist you in your endeavour, you have it in the fullest measure, for your unassuming manner has endeared you to all. Your splended example to the youth of Canada will be of untold benfit to our future generations, for you are teaching them the cardinal virtues of self control and discipline, and that physical and spiritual welfare go hand in hand. You are helping to carry on a great tradition, for you are a logical successor of those ancient Greeks who, over 700 years before the birth of Christ, were perhaps the first of mankind to realize the advantage of physical training, and that true beauty can only exist in combination with a perfectly trained body. You have before you a very strenuous time. Your trip to Halifax, to take part in the Dominion trials, in which we feel certain that you will duplicate your triumphs of the meet in Toronto, will demand much of the short time left at your disposal, e'er you make your final departure for Euorpe. This being the case, we have been compelled to make somewhat hurried arrangements toward making a public presenation of these expressions of the love and esteem of the people of Penetanguishene, and we trust that they will call to your mind, when far away, the home of your heart, the little town of Pene- tanguishene.
