SPORTS AT MILTON
ATHLETIC AND CYCLING EVENTS A successful meeting, the programme of which included both cycling and athletic events, was held by the Milton Amateur Cycling Chib on Saturday before a good attendance. The weather was fine, and although the tracks were not conducive to fast times the runners in the sprint events were assisted by a good breeze. A feature of the meeting was the manner in which the programme was conducted, as there was little delay between events. Results;— 75 YARDS HANDICAP. First beat: E. Fish (scr) 1, A. Maitland (3yds) 2.
