SPORTS GATHERINGS

DUNEDIN TECHNICAL COLLEGE The staff of the King Edward Technical College has every reason to feel pleased with tiie success of its efforts in arranging the school’s first annual sports meeting. The fixture was held at Carisbrook yesterday, and a varied and interesting programme of events was drawn up for both the boys and girls of the college. Though fine overhead, a rather cold wind blew from the south, the conditions being far from ideal for competitors and spectators alike. In all, about sixty-five events were completed. These were run to an efficiently organised time-table. • Mr I. Scott, chairman ot the Board of Managers, was present throughout the day. Mr Sanderson,'of the board, rendered valuable assistance as adjudge of the girls’ events; while Mr Aldridge, principal of the college, acted as referee. In the boys’ section the starting was in the hands of Mr J. R. M'Dougall, ably assisted by Messrs Meikle and Roberts. Messrs H. Sew iioy, E. i>. Smyth, J. Harris, R. N. Field. R. Gardner, and J. Davidson acted as judges, and Messrs I*. Gair, Allen, and ,Vt : Queen made very efficient track stewards.

Neale and Aburn and Mr Selby; judges—Misses Holmes, Anderson, and Griffiths; recorders— Misses Wilson, Hore, and Scott. The interests of the Press were well looked after by Mr W. F. Alexander.
