A group of members of the Jewish Sports Club Maccabee left Tel Aviv this morning on motor-cycles, on which they will cross the Sinai desert to Egypt, on their way to London, where they expect to arrive on June 12th. They are making the trip as part of the propaganda on behalf of the Maccabee Jewish Sports Olympiad which will take place in Palestine next Spring, on the lines of the Maccabee Olympiad held at Antwerp last Spring.
