PRESIDENT’S VISIT.
[per press association.] . WELLINGTON, July 28. Advice has been received by the New Zealand Olympic Association that the President of the International Olympic Council, Count Baillet Latour, will arrive at Auckland in the middle of September. He is a Belgian nobleman and the Government will extend to him the eourtesies usually given to distinguished visitors.
N.Z. ROWING CREW.
LOS ANGELES, July 28. The New Zealand rowing crew are making good time in their trials. Their coach (Mr Healy, of Wanganui), is confident that their technique will improve though slow motion pictures have revealed faults. New Zealand has not entered for the rowing fours with coxswain event, as it would jeopardise its chances of the eights, which race follows immediately and the fours partly depend on the eights for crews. The rowers will leave the village next week to live at Long Beach. New Zealand has entered in the races for pairs, the eights, and the fours with coxswain.
Goulding (Australia), Stoneley (Britain), Bill Car (United States) run together in their heat in the four hundred metres.
