Annual S ports In weather which left nothing to be desired the School Sports were held on June 3rd, The ground was hard and dry after weeks of sunshine, but constant watering and attention had kept the grass green and, though the laburnums and tulips were over and the roses not yet in full bloom, the grounds were very beautiful and formed a most attractive setting for the Sports. About three hundred and fifty visitors were present to see the events which were wellfcontested though not superlatively fast. Gee captured the Corsan Cup as the Senior Athletic Champion and Sen' ior the Marpole and VV'enger Cups in the Junior Division. The Ker Cup, awarder by the vote of the Masters to the boy who most excels in Scholarship, Leadership, Character and Athletics, the School's highest honour, went to Gee. It goes without saying that this award can only be won by outstanding merit and this year's winner has displayed sterling qualities in no way less than those of previous winners and has thoroughly merited his honours. At the conclusion of the races The Headmaster, in introducing the Guest of Honour, Mr. F. E. Winslow, told the visitors how he welcomed them to the School and commented on the fact that despite our small numbers, there was no single tradition of University School which we had not kept to the uttermost. Mr. Scarrett tendered his thanks to the Masters, Prefects and Bovs for their loyal cofoperation. Mr. Winslow reminded the boys of the opportunities offered them at the School and warned them that their school life was a pre- paration for a wider and older life. After the prizes had been distributed, Mrs. Winslow received a bouquet of carnations from Gee on behalf of the School: three cheers were given for hir. and Mrs. Winslow and three for the School. At Mr. Winslow's call three very hearty cheers were given for Mr. Scarrett 125.-

f 1 R. A. GEE Kei' Cup Wiwiiier 1935 The Keri Cup was awarded this year as usual to the boy who, in the concerted opinion of the Masters, displayed to the highest degree an excellence of Scholarship, Character, Leadership and Athletic Prowess. This is the highest honour in the gift of the School and the 1935 winner in no way fell behind his forerunners. Gee came to the School in 1929 and throughout his time here has displayed sterling merit and a character which fully entitles hirn to the award. He leaves the School with the good wishes of all who have known him here, both Masters and Boys. ,37-
