CHRISTCHURCH. The athletic sports in connection" with St. Bede's College were held on Wednesday, the 16th inst., at the college grounds. The day was a great success, in spite of the fact that a stiff north-wester blew in the morning and a cold sou'-wester in the afternoon. Luckily, no rain fell until the last race had been run off. The strong wind which blew against the competitors did not allow fast times, but there were some very good performances. The senior championship was won by S. O'Connor, and the junior championship by .J. O'Grady. . Among the large number of visitors were the Most Rev. Archbishop Cattaneo, Apostolic Delegate,- and Bishop Brodie, who were - given a very enthuastic reception by the boys. The results were as follows: —Mile Championship, senior—P. Dickel 1, S.

INVERCARGILL. The 1921-22 cricket season in Invercargill opened on Saturday in beautiful weather (writes our own correspondent, under date November 21). The Marist Old Boys' first grade team met the Invercargill team, the strongest combination in the competition. The I.C.C. batting first, opened rather disastrously, having three wickets down for 13. Thereafter the batting improved, and it was late in the day before the last wicket fell for the respectable total of 155 runs. The Marist Old Boys' faced about half a dozen overs before time, and lost a good wicket early. Total for one wicket runs. The match will be continued next Saturday. The second grade played High School and lost by over an innings. The third grado won from Union in a two-innings game by 15 runs. For Marist, Hallamore was the destructive agent, taking 12 wickets for 21. The total scores were Ma-rist 100, Union 85.
