The Indian Recreation Club ground International Charity Cup Final Was gaily decorated and thronged England with
its people yesterday dr sixth annual atheictic meeting. Un- like other athletle meetings the IR.C., while retaining a
a few championship events, composed their programme matnly of novelty events.
It was one of these novelty events that caused the events to fall behind the scheduled times. The Mathema- fical Races were not completed at the first try--the problems were too dif- Bicult! Great amusement was caus- ed during the Obstacle Race in which the last was first. A. K. Minu though reaching the tape last, was awarded the race because he was the only on
underneath tarpaulin to wriggle which was broken during the struggle, the earlier ones to finish were all disqualified.
