London, Mar. 27.
As one who has known Harry Ollerdessen for twenty-five years T would like to add a few words to the tributes accorded him in papers just reaching London, There are, probably, others who knew him better and longer, but not many, I love, who have played games with and against him as much as T have. Like others, I have agreed and disagreed with him, but in thi respect as well as in sport, I have not known him to take an unsporting advantage of anyone. I do not know of any player in all my contacts with treaty port athletics to possess a greater respect for the traditions which - are still the ¢ssential qualities of athletic sports.
