SPORTSMAN’S CLUB
INTERNATIONAL BODY ESTABLISHED IN LONDON 'A (British Official Wireless.! Rugby, March 6. There is to be established in London during the spring an international sportsman’s club, with headquarters in Grosvenor House, Park Lane. The club owes its inception to a recent public remark of the Prinee of Wales, that “the best friendship, whether individual or international, is that made on the field of sport.” Information will be supplied as to the various forms of sport prevailing in the several countries. It is anticipated that the club will also exercise a powerful influence in promoting international friendships, apart from its sporting side. Its membership will be restricted to those who are already members of leading clubs in their countries. An advisory committee is being appointed, and on it are represented Great Britain, France, the United States, Spain. Italy, the Argentine, Belgium, Chili, and the British Dominions.
