Despite. yesterday's weather, the second' Triangular (Wei Chun, Hongkew-end-Prench Army teams) cross-country annual competition was run off but was only in the nature of a practice run. The weather failed. however, to dampen the spirits of the runners who covered the seven-mile course.
The actual race had to be postponed to next Sunday because of &n unfortunate mistake made by most of the runners The leading group, Liu, K. F. Wong and Zing finished by the correct route, but the second group, led by T. K. Mah of Wei Chun and comprising most of the French Army team took the wrong turning at Great Western Road. Instead of turning at Edinburgh Road the group ran into Tifeng Road and on to Avenue Foch and Weihaiwei Road Because of this the officials decided to re-run the race next Sunday K. F. Liu who is making quite a name for himself this year in long distance running finished first. He was followed by two of his teammates, F. Wong and K. F. Zing who came in. second and third.
