Considerable regret has been expressed la local sporting circles of the announcement that Percy Williams. Olympic 100. And 200 metres sprint Champion will take up his residence across the line next season. According to reports from Vancouver they Are More or less reconciled to ills future plans. And when carefully considered they seem quite reasonable. Seattle University leaders made Home very attractive offers to the sprint Champion they wanted him and no obstacle was too seat of them of overcome it was Only in deference town hysteria that Percy himself decided to stay at . For one the committee members Felt they could not advise him Sec etly they sympathized with his desire to go South openly they 4o Tiev left it up to the Little sprinter himself and he slay one year and then Cross the line into the larger and More profitable Fields of track Competition. Lack of Competition in Canada and his desire to take n course in business and course tha the University of British Columbia cannot give him Are the reason Why Percy Williams prefers the american College and Why he enrol at the Seattle institution next year. Or the Vancouver committee leaders ars supporting Percy in this. They feel that he right insofar track Competition in Canada concerned and they realize with him that Competition essential if he to continue a top notch sprinter.

In previous years the local varsity athletes have vips captured the 100. And 200 metre be but unless the University of British Columbia fans to Send their team it certainly looks though the olympic Speed merchant will walk off with ten Points quite handily. It to that now hand will bring Williams to Winnipeg. The Wellington Lacrosse team made a determined and heroic bid for the Mann cup and deserve great credit for their magnificent sowing.
