Raymond Herbert Hillbrick (1954) Stawell Gift Contenders Leave

Two West Australian professional runners, Tom Panizza (right) and Kevin Lewis (second from right) left Perth by train yesterday for Victoria, where they will compete in the Stawell Gift meeting at Easter. They were farewelled at the central station by Mr. H. Winning (left), the secretary of the W.A. Athletic League, and Mr. R. Hillbrick, the league's official handicapper. Panizza plans to have his first run in Victoria in the Dandenong Gift on Saturday. He will then go to Stawell where he will run in the famous Stawell Gift over 130 yards and in the 220 yards event. Panizza, who is off the 7 3/4 mark should have a great chance of reaching the final of the Gift. Lewis, a distance runner, will contest the 880 yards and the mile events at Stawell.
