TROTTING RACES.
HUNT CLUB PROTEST. (By Telegraph.—Press Association.) TIMARU, Friday. Tlie committee of the South Canterbury Hunt Club to-day decided to protest against the decision of the Racing Conference that after January 1. 1936, no hunt club shall include a trotting event at a totalisator meeting. It was felt that the South Canterbury Hunt was obliged to consider the interests of farmers over whose country it hunted and staged a trotting race, especially .-is jumping and hunters' events were so well catered for on the programme. The committee considered that the hunt clubs concerned should have been consulted before the resolution was passed, and decided to ask the Christchurch, Waimate, Otago and Birchwood Hunts to be associated with the protest.
