DEWAR SHIELD

CYCLINa CHAMPIONS

A SUCCESSFUL MEETING

A successful sports meeting, comprising team events lot the Dewar Shield, cycling championships, and handicap races, was held at the Petone Recreation Ground in the presence of a large number o£ spectators on Saturday afternoon. Conditions were good, but all events were got off under a burling sun and' the ground was on the hard side for running and jumping. >• College Old Boys secured moat pointß for the Dewar Shield, with Wellington next, but the points lead is small enough to make the next shield meeting'interesting. ;In the shield competition teams for the field events consisted of two men, and m the hurdle events of one man. : The standard set throughout was good, several finishes being most spectacular. Ihe javelin throw (a team event) was won by the harrow margin of one inch, and only a tlra separated the first and second in the 1000-metre cycle championship. The mile (two 220 yds, 440 yds, and 880 yds) relay race proved to be a thrilling contest, the Kiwi team beating -Scottish by inches only. The cycling events created great interest, the spectators becoming wildly enthusiastic over the finish of the 10-mile championship, which was fought out by the placed men, and was won by T. Roe from O. Disley by about three-yards. There was a good muster of athletes for the parade for the Kitto Shield, which was won by the Wellington Club with a very fine performance. 1 After the. grand-parade, and while the clubs were grouped before the stand, Mr. Walter,Nash, M.P., welcomed the competitors and referred briefly to the value oE athletic training. .„ . ' .• Mr. A. C. Kirto, president of the Wellington Centre, also welcomed the competitors. The large number of events was got off very expeditio'usly by an energetic committee, Mr.. T. W.
