The procession will leav.e the railway station at i p.m. and will .proceed to the domain grounds. An excellent programme of sports shas been prepared by the committee, which should prove interesting, and suit the ideas of most aspirants of sports and pastimes. Afternoon tea, ice creams and other dehcies will be available on the ground. Prizes will be awarded for the best original costume and comic character in the procession, while trophies will be presented to the winners of each event during the afternoon.
