NEW ATHLETES FOR ENGLAND
Admit America Has Gone Ahead
Since Firt Olympian Gaines.
AN ADVISORY CLUB IS TOBMED
Swedes Have) Already Ntavted Try
oats (or liaiura In Stockholm and
Will Know Their Strength
by Kfit Jnly.
SB WVORK, Dec. 14. -Through the at-
fort-t of A. H. (Jem p. who was well
known on this side of the water ioiiis
years ago, an advisory rlub ba been
formed in England, and the plan Is that
It shall be made up of veteran athletes
belonging to tho different dportments of
track and field athletics. In explaining
the Objects of the club, Mr. George said
that Its alms would be the seeking of
new athletic talent and to hold mec'Jiij,.)
for the purpors of discussing various
topics ronnected with the general train
ing of the athlete. There was no blinking '
t the fart, he said, that England had
fallen behind in athletics Mid It neet'ed
soma heroic methods to aroue. ths coun
try to the meaning of the situation. They
shnuld try to keep up with thu times sni
with tho progress made by other coun
tries. American athletes, he points, out,
had Improved vastly sines the first Olym
pic revival ln 1S96, and especially In the
vents In which they were then, wexk.
Ha thought that if properly a'oused
there was still sufficient material In the
British Isles to make a good showing,
but the way to bring out this material
was to try and find out the good men In
tho different events and to try and help
them In the way ot development. Local
members of ths clubs should be appointed
all over England, Ireland. ' Wales and
Scotland with the prims object of being
on tho lookout for promising men. He
aid England wan weak in the field
vents, and it was their own fault, as
they gave little or no encouragement to
that branch In recent years. Ireland, be
suggested, could help them out In tho
field events, and Mr. George drew atten
tion to ths fact that four of ths American
field champions ot this year vera Irish
men born.
A number of men greatly Interested in
the success of the British team attended
ths initial meeting of ths club, which
took place In London, Including R. B. de
Courcy Laf fan, secretary of ths British
Olympic council and P. L. Fisher, secre
tary of ths Amateur Athletic association.
Swedes Are at Wo,rk.
Tha Swedes have already started on ths
tryouts for the Olympic games and surely
by next July they ought to know the
strength of the team. While the other
nations are Indulging ln the winter torpor
the Swedes will be preparing themselves
for the battle. Above all things It ap
pears they have grown keen on winning
ths two all-around competitions and spe
cial contestants are already tunod up for
the events. They say they frightened
the best America could produce out of
the Pentathlon in Athens snd they- ars
going: to do the same this time. Thore
