Wallasey Athletic Club's plans for the track season, which opens next week, include training on the 440 yards track at the Corporation playing fields between Twenty Row and the brickworks in Leasowe Road on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday evening.
Jumping pits will be provided and a wide range of field events impedimenta will be available. Next Friday night, at the Wallasey Grammar School, a short film show of field events will commence at 8 p.m. for all members of Wallasey Athletic Club and invited members of Wallasey youth clubs and schools.
Last Wednesday evening at an extraordinary general meeting of the club a women's section was formed for track work. Anyone of either sex who is interested in track and field athletics is invited to contact the track secretaries, Matt Smith or Mrs. Jean Smith, 72 Fairmond Road, Moreton, who will be glad to help them.
