throw by Miss Charteris could well provide a sensational upset. M. Walls (Toe H) is in great form after his visit to Australia and a record in the 120 yards hurdles is a strong possibility. Set by C. R. Bradwell (Technical) in 1940, this is Canterbury's oldest record. Last season Walls won the title in 15.4 sec, equalling the record, but this could not be recognised because of wind assistance.
