Description : Orillia News-Letter - Lewis Campbell of Bradford, son of Mr. W. L. Campbell and nephew of Dr. Lacrosse player of former years, showed his prowess as a sprinter at the Boys' Camp of the Ontario Athletic Association on Lake Couchiching. His uncle, Dr. Lew Campbell, was an outstanding sprinter in his younger days, and young Lew is evidently following in his footsteps. Lewis won the 100 yard and 220 yard dashes quite handily, besides taking second place in the shot-put, an event in which he had never before competed.
