P-NG women athletes will compete in the Australian Women’s Athletic Champion ships in Brisbane in March.

It will be the first time P-NG women have represented the Territory at any athletic meet ing abroad.

A former Victorian athlete, Mrs. J. Harley , who has been training P-NG women in Port Moresby for about a year, thinks the experience will be valuable for possible NG com petitors in the South Pacific Games in Suva. (There were no P-NG women athletes at the Perth Commonwealth Games).
