One-mile national champion.

From present indications, very lie"
Of the Eastern athletes will compete
in the National A. A. L. champion
ships az the Panama Exposition IN San
Francisco. The reason Is that the peo-
ple in charge Of the athletic games
are not getting enough funds TO bring
on the athletes. Figuring about $3.50
a man, the expenses of forty athletes
would be $4,000.
This number would go from New
York. Boston and Philadelphia, not
counting those of the Middle West,
where probably $4,000 more would be
needed.
Il isa we'll known fact that the clubs
will not pay their own expenses 10
send athletes out to the Coast. IL the
exposition officials want the national
champions they will have to pay all
evnenses. One club stated positively
that il would not permit any OF its
boys to compete unless they receiver '
full expenses. Without the Eastern
and few of the Middle west ath-
letes. the meet would not look Ike

The writer has found this out TO his
