AMATEUR ATHLETICS

INTERCLUB BANNER. WON BY MASTERTON CLUB. For the annual triangular athletic meeting of the Masterton, Olympic and Petone clubs, held at the Petone Oval on Saturday, conditions could hardly have been more unpleasant. A cold southerly wind blew, and the driving rain caused frequent stoppages. Most of the cycle races on the programme were abandoned. The interclub banner was again won by Masterton, who have now won four successive times. They secured 30 points, Olympic 22, and Petone 18a Detailed results are: — Interclub Events. 100 yards senior.—T. Tulloch (P), 1; K. Patience (O), 2; H. R. Valk (P), 3. Time, 12. 100 yards junior.—E.
