RACE AT CHRISTCHURCH WANGANUI TECHNICAL COLLEGE WIN FOB CHRIST'S COLLEGE [ Per Press Association. ] CHRISTCHURCH, Nov. 25. Christ’s College beat Wanganui Technical College by three lengths in a fouroared rowing race on the Avon to-day. Christ’s College had the better course. They led from the start, increased their lead gradually and never left the result in doubt. ARAMOHO CLUB TESLA FOURS CONTEST In fine weather last evening the Aramoho Club decided the first three rounds and one of the semi-finals for the Tesla Fours. The water was smooth in spite of the occasional gusts of wind. The racing was not so interesting as usual, the winners taking the lead at the start and never being headed. Holmes won from Campbell by two lengths, and Coxon defeated Stokes by a length after a good race. Stowers won from Edwards by two lengths. In tho first semi-final Coxon defeated Hoskyn’s crew by a length, Stokes substituting for Hoskyns owing to the inability of the latter to fill his usual position as stroke. The other semifinal, between Holmes and Stowrvs, will be rowed this evening, and tho final will take place on Saturdav afternoon.
