It was proposed that Messrs Wilder, Orbell and Priest meet tho Domain Board to arrange the grounds for the boxing and wrestling events. There will bo two events for boxing for boys, which should be very attractive. The programme has been revised and and promises to be as good as previous years. The running events are the same as last year, and should draw a good field of competitors. The judges are the same as last year, and have always given every satisfaction. Mr Orbell has made all arrangements for the Highland Band, so given a fine day, the sports should be a great success and the public can look for ward to a good day’s outing.
