When the field was sent away again Groso looked a wiuper in the last lap, but a 60yds sprint by Lamb put him a wheel ahead of the New Zealander. The time was lm. 17s. Lamb won his heat in the milo race by 20yds, in '2m. 23 2-ss. Nicholson was second. Grose was second to D. Fraser in the other heat, which took 2m. 21s. Fraser (170 yds.) beat Lamb (scr.). and Grose (scr.). in the final. The time was 2m. 24 2-ss. In the three-rnile event the result was: Lamb (scr.), 1; Grose (scr.),_2; Nicholson (70yds,), 3. The champions ouickly picked up Nicholson and at. the end of a milo fell in behind, the limit men, Lamb went away at the home turn in an excellent sprint, and won by eight lengths! in >m. 41 2-ss. Grose broke a pedal in the last lap.
