ATHLETICS.
(Per Press Association.) Wellington, May 22. At a special meeting ,of- the Council of tho -New-Zealand.^Amateur Athletic Association, held to-night, Mr, A. Marryatt and Mr. J! H. Pollock, representatives of .the Oiago Centre, handed in their resignations. This hetion is the outcome of Otago's resentment at the action, of-the delegates in voting for Wellington as the place to hold the Australasian championships, contrary to instructions of thc'Otago Centre. The Otago Centre passed a resolution revoking the , appointment of Messrs Marryatt.and Pollock as delegates, and although Messrs Marryatt and Pollock believe the Committee has no power to do-this they regard the resolution as a vote -of 1 -want of confidence and- prefer to resign. The resignations were accepted and the delegates thanked for their services to amateur athletics.
