JAPANESE GOING TO MELBOURNE
BOY SCOUTS AND SWIMMERS (Received November 16, 11.40 p.m.) TOKYO, November 16. The swimmers Kiyokawa and Sakagami sailed to-day for Australia. They are confident of holding their own. Representatives of the boy scout movement also sailed, taking with them as a gift for scouts at Sydney and Melbourne a gigantic hollow paper carp, the Japanese symbol of manly spirit, which is flown from poles by millions of households on the Japanese boys' festival of May 5.
