Local athletes took a day off last week as the only open meetings were too far away.
The August week-end provides competition for all classes. The now famous Rangers Sports are held in Glasgow today (Saturday) and no doubt the pick of the country's athletes will be competitors.
Nearer home, Leigh Harriers hold their second open handicap meeting of the season. This meeting will attract most runners from Merseyside and Manchester, and some keen duels are anticipated.
On Monday, interest will be centred on the N.C.A.A. v. Eire match in Dublin and on the Great Britain v. France tussle.
