It is understood that the selectors in choosing the relay team took into consideration the fact, that those selected in this event have only a small programme in the ordinary championship events and will therefore be fresh to put up a good relay run. The relay race counts towards the banner competition. The club officials request that members take up serious training at once and that any member unable to make the trip will notify the secretary immediately.
