HIS ATHLETIC CAREER. Although in after years he became a very fine athlete he did not achieve very much in this direction while at School. He was early to the fore at shooting, for although he was the youngest member of the first team from our School to obtain the Frankfort Shield, he made the highest score, obtaining a possible at one of the distances. It was at the Polytechnic, however, that he began to develop, and at the annual meeting at Stamford Bridge he was the success of the afternoon, winning five firsts, one second, and running in the winning relay team. During his visits to Canada he made a great name in the athletic world, especially distinguishing himself on his second visit in 1911 with the Montreal Amateur Athletic Association. His remarkable versatility in sports during this period may be shown by the following. He finished the season as champion runner of Montreal; he was England’s centre forward in the International team, scoring in one match two goals on time; he was captain of the chief league team, the “Crusaders”; was the leading shot of the crack rifle team, one of the first bowls players of Montreal, one of the best shots in the Montreal Black Watch, a splendid runner with the snow-shoes, and a leading all-round player at cricket. On his third visit to Canada, while at Edmonton, he became Secretary of the Police Athletic Association, and broke several ground records in that district and in the United States for quarter-mile races. He managed the club so well in every way, that on leaving he was presented with a valuable gold watch. He would have competed in the Olympic trials at Stockholm but for a technical error in his sport’s entry. On his return to England he was invited to run for the A.A.A. against Oxford and Cambridge, but had to decline, as he had not sufficient time to train. His family has in remembrance of his athletic success a large number of medals and cups.
