German Athletic Defeat
Great Britain defeated Germans at the White City recently by 89 points to 67 In one of the most thrilling athletic matches for ---YOAFG.–
The issue depended on the last event, the one mile, medies, and A..G. K. Brown, famed for his 440 running, ran the last leg, a half milė, in 1 minute 51 2/10 seconds- which Was 4/10 seconds faster than the British record, but will not count as such because Brown had a dying start.
The only record set up during the day was achieved by. H. Woelike, the German Olymple champion, who attained a distance of 52 ft 9 ins. in the weight putting to beat the British record of 51 81 ms.

Replying to the German cr- ticism, Mr. D. G. A. Lowe, Secre- tary of the Amateur Athletic As- scefation, said: "I think it very regrettable that it should be sug- gested that Great Britain won the match by any unfair means."
"Such was definitely the opinion of the members of the German, team, the President of the German Athletic Association, a member of the German Olymple Committee and representatives of the German Embassy who were present."
"It was suggested by this news- paper
dellberately that Britain excluded from the programime certain field events at which Ger- many excels. The programme has been the same in each of the last three matches. and it includes five fleld-events and eight on the track."
"Perhaps I may add that on the evening before the match a suggestion was broached by a leading. German "official" that the match should be confined to track events in the future" and 'my Im- mediate reply was that it would not be fair.”

Merry proved Mathew at the last and he was beaten by three-quarters of a length. Azam Pasha was a mod- erate third. This success partly consoles the owner and trainer of Sultan Mahomed for his failure at Doncaster, where the Massine colt was involved in the scrim- mage which blotted out Mid-day Sun's chance. The softer going on the present occasion was in his favour.

The Amersham case concerned Arthur P. Meager, a motorist, of Penfold-road, Clacton, who was fined 156. His defence was that there was a police constable on the main road. He had signalled his intention of turning right, and as the constable merely stood to attention he assumed that every- thing was all right. Taking it as an all-clear sign, he turned into the main road very slowly, but was stopped by the constable:
CESAREWITCH PROSPECTS
Rain Pleases Fans
Newmarket, Ock, 26. Week-end rain has delighted the majority of owners and trainers and others watching the Cesare- witch, most of whom wanted soft- er going."
Nightcap's connections are more sanguine than ever in the hope of pulling of a big double for the ex-jockey trainer; Dines. Captain Abern, Nightcap's owner, says he has backed his hone heavily, but others also expect to win.
Hedges, trainer of Fet, says that it his horse fails to establish the record of winning the race twice successively, it will only be because he is beaten by the stáhle com- panion, Respondent.
France also has hopes in three horses, Harewood, Organeau and Castanelle, especially the firs named, which is backed to win- small fortune and take the trophy across the Channel.
Bookmakers describe the betting on the race as heavier than usual. Joping, an outsider is considered a
successful contender.
Other than these, perhaps Fox- star, Idaho and Grecko have the best chances. "Reuter.
