Sports Day An interesting feature was the formal presentation of a new Challenge Cup given for the Open Mile. The Award, known as The G.W. Robinson Memorial Trophy was donated by the family of the late George Robinson, Appleby Old Boy (1920-27), Member of the Board of Governors (1947- ' 71). Two of his sons. Bill and Jamie, gave the Cup to Dr. J. A.M. Bell for presentation to this year ' s winner, Gordon Kolle who, by co- incidence, had just set a new record for the distance :4:51.0 sees. Following the events, the awards were made by Ian Grant ( ' 55- ' 60) President of the Old Boys ' Association. David Burke was on hand to present flowers to Mrs. Grant. Jamie Gairdner ( ' 49- ' 58) joined the Robinson brothers: G.W. ( ' 49- ' 55); J.B. ( ' 60- ' 66) as judges for the races. Mr. Abbott was the starter. Gordon Kolle accepts the G.W.
