ROSE’S INDIFFERENT FORM
UNFAMILIAR CONDITIONS
London, July 7,
Randolph Rose’s indifferent form is ascribable to the fact that he is not used to running in large fields, and he has to make his own pace. He is also unfamiliar with cinder tracks, on which he must shorten his stride to get a foot-grip. Consequently he has been unable to adopt his usual method of striding out as a finishing effort. McHolm is confident that Rose, under proper tuition, will adapt himself to the new conditions. He did not compete in the four miles event at Stamford Bridge on Saturday, as it was onlv two events before the mile.
So far nothing has been heard of the proposed meeting with Paavo Nurmi, who has not yet been located.—Aus.N.Z. Cable Assn.
