THE HARRIS CUP.

The Ashburton Swimming Club had intended sending a team to Christchurch to-morrow to compete in the Harris Cup Relay Race at the Richmond carnival. The proposed team was as follows: —R. M. McGregor, F. Ray, W. S McClymont, A. Dunlop, and J. Ramsay. Unfortunately McGregor has suffered some injury to his back while diving, which will not allow of his taking part at the carnival. The club has therefore decided not to compete for the Harris Cap.
