DOMINION PHYSIQUE
Brigadier-General H. W. Lloyd, M.L.A., who returned from New. Zealand to Sydney recently, found that the physique of New Zealand youth was, generally speaking, ahead of that of the Australians.; "I think that this is accounted for by the fact that they have no big industrial areas, such as we have in our Australian cities, and also to the fact that we have no organised physical training in Australia," he added. New Zealanders were feeling the necessity for the training of youth, and this had been carried on by independent bodies. The New Zealand Government was beginning to take an interest in the matter, and it seemed likely that something would be done.
