TWINS FINISH EQUAL IN HURDLE RACE
SIMILAR TIMES IN HEATS (Special to The Times) DUNEDIN, October 26. There was one particularly’interesting feature at the annual sports of John McGlashan College at Logan Park today and that was in the 120 yards hurdles handicap. The scratch men in the two heats were twins and each came through the field to win his heat in the same time of 20 3~ssec. In the final the two boys lined up on the back mark and in an exciting finish they breasted. the tape together. Although not Siamese twins, the youthful hurdlers could not be separated by the judges and, appropriately enough, were bracketed in the first place.
