GouIdinq After OLYMPIC Title,

George Goulding, the famous walk
er, who broke the American record
for walking two miles in New York
recently, is pointing for the Olympic
games, which will be held in Stock
holm, Sweden, in 1912. Despite the
fact that Goulding is breaking records
at the present time, he is not now at
the top of his form. The Toronto
wonder is conserving his energy for
next year, and, beyond taking long
walks and going into a ace now and
then, Goulding is doing very little ath-
letic work. Goulding's hopes are all
for the Swedish Olympiad. 1t is his
intense desire to win the walking
events at Stockholm in worlds record
time and then retire as an undefeated
champion.
Strange as it may seem. Goulding
does not especially fear the British
walkers who will start at the coming
Olympiad. but. rather, some of the
men who have recently come to the
trout In Australia.
