— <m — SECONDARY SCHOOLS' CHAMPIONSHIP SUCCESS FOR CHRIST'S COLLEGE (SPECIAL TO THE PBF.SS.? MOUNT COOK, May 12. Christ's College won the Dominion secondary schools' ski-ing championships, which were held on Saturday. Owing to lack of snow it was impossible to use the Ball Glacier, as originally intended. Consequently, the venue was changed to the grounds near the Malte Brun hut, where the conditions were excellent. Before the events trips were made to the Tasman Chalet, where Mr Barry Caulfield, the English ski-ing expert, was able to give instruction to the boys. The Christchurch teams returned by the excursion train yesterday, and the Dunedin competitors will go south today. The results were as follows: Teams' Championship Christ's College (A. G.
