THE pHAMPIONSHIP MEETING. [fBOM OUR OWN COEBBBPONDKNT.T DUNEDIN, Jan."7.
The Cycling Championship Meeting is the chief topic of. conversation in Dunedin to-day. The weather is again lovely, but a north-east wind is blowing across the ground. Both Kerr and Beynolds feel the effects of their spills yesterday, but never theless they intend to start in all the championship events. The Otago Daily Times, has the following in reference to the Five-mile Championship:— "ln the five-mile race Kerr and Hayward again had the race to themselves, the latter winning clearly this time ; but, had he not fallen as he approached the home turn, Beynolds must have had a big say in the finish. At the time of his mishap he was endeavouring to pass Hayward and Kerr, but he found himself unable to get through. It was openly stated by several persons on the ground that he was blooked, it being alleged that there was an under standing between Kerr and Hayward, and he was driven to the extreme edge of the track, whereas in attempting to alter his course in order to prevent a collision, his machine toppled over. As to time it was a poor race, being, run for a consider able distance at a funeral pace, which evoked derisive remarks from the specta tors, and a suggestion was made to them that they ehould get off and walk."
