CYCLING
FIGHT FOR CONTROL. By Telegraph—Pres* Association. WELLINGTON, April 29. With regard to the outcome of the conference at Timaru re cycling control, Mr Austad, a member of the Council of the New Zealand Amateur Athletic Association said that from recent correspondence it was clear that affiliation would be granted to one body only in New Zealand, and that this single body must control both cash and amateur cycling. The New Zealand Cycling Board would fulfil this purpose, and application for affiliation was made accordingly. A telegram received at the wefck-end, from Mr J. Kennedy, of Geraldine, secretary of the New Zealand Athletic and Cycling Union, stated: “The New Zealand Athletic and Cycling Union has no intention of submitting to the Auckland body controlling cash cycling.” The effect of this fresh turn of events, it is stated, is that the Northern Union has been side-stepped,' and the new Board 'will become the supreme cycling body, having jurisdiction over both the amateur and professional branches.
