Watch These Men
Man Mountain Mick White, the eighteen stone Aucklander, who holds the present New Zealand record as hammer thrower.
Jack Opie of Otago who is one of the finest field athletes New Zealand has produced and is holder of the New Zealand shot putt and pole vault. He has put up the best New Zealander's performance in the pole vault but he has not concentrated on it of late. His shot putt and discus have been consistently good this season.
J. Sutherland, the Victorian sprinter who will be outstanding if he recovers from his present indisposition. He is the present dual title holder and national hundred yards champion.
Shaw and Harris of Canterbury. In the 880 yards and the mile they are the most brilliant youngsters since V. P. Boot first made his name. They both have put up New Zealand Junior records.
