The. annual championship of the Shanghai Harriers Club was held on Saturday afternoon over a course of eight miles in the Kiangwan district.
It was the generat opinion and evidenced by the fact that several competitors were unable to complete the course, that the distance of eight miles is too long, and it is possible that future events. of this nature will we held over a shorter course.
George made the running for the first three miles, but then fell back to the "field" and left Atkinson and McKenna to set the pace for the time being. In the last rile Rose again spurted and soon outdistanced his companions to win comfortably from H. A. Atkinson, with the veteran T. McKenna taking third place. The time of the winner was 53 min. 3 sec.
