TROUBLE ENDED
Control of Cycling
As a result of a conference at Christchurch, the trouble over the control of amateur cycling in New Zealand, leading to a proposal from one party that the amateur association should secede from the New Zealand Cycling Federation controlling both branches of the sport, has been ended.
At the last meeting of the New Zealand Amateur Cycling Association’s executive the resolution of withdrawal proposed by Mr. J. Fitzsimmons, chairman of the executive, was declared out of order owing to the statutory lim.it of 14 days for circularisation of the resolution having been unobserved. To end the dispute, Mt. A. R. Thomas, the association’s president, and Mr. Fitzsimmons were appointed to proceed to a conference with members of the federation at Christchurch. As a result of the conference the federation agreed to withdraw its application for affiliation to the Olympic Association, a point of dispute with the amateur body, and it also agreed to recognise the necessity for adjustment of ita constitution by friendly negotiation.
