THE ASHBURIAN 7 Erie Scott looked down on the old school for the first time during the Thanksgiving holidays. He was with Keith Davidson three thousand feet up in the air. John Wilson is at present at Cambridge, England, and is learn- ing to fly . He met George Drummond, who is going to Trinity, the other day. J. B. Morgan is now at Trinity College, Cambridge. The Ashbury Old Boys Association was started last year and a dinner was arranged as a send-off. This dinner was attended by fifty-five Old Boys. It is essential for the success of the Association that our num- bers should be as great as possible. We feel confident that there are a large number of Old Boys who would like to be members, but it is hard to get a circular to all of them as our lists are not complete. We know that they all have the good of the School at heart and we believe that they would like to be kept in touch with the latest School news by reading the Ashburian. We are taking this opportunity of asking any Old Boy who is not already a member of the Association to get in touch with the Secretary. J. R. Bogert, 1227 Sherbrooke St. W., Montreal, P.Q. ATHLETICS The Athletic Sports were held on Wednesday, June the 11th. This was one of the most successful meetings held at Ashbury. The weather favoured both competitors and spectators. Once again there was a large number of Old Boys from the R.M.C. but, unfortunately at the last moment it was found that teams could not be organized for a Soldiers v. Civilians Tug-of-War. Several new records were made. Smellie established a record for the High Jump of 5 feet 7 inches ; this is especially worthy of note as it equals the Dominion Intercollegiate Intermediate record. R. Rowley also jumped very well in the Intermediate event to make a record at 5 feet. R. Craig equalled Daniels existing record of 10 4 5 seconds for the hundred yards. The Inter-House Tug of War was won by Ottawa who pulled Dominion two straight pulls in the preliminary round and Mon- treal two straight pulls in the final. The House Relay was won by Dominion.

THE ASHBURIAN 9 Smellie and Craig tied with 18 points each for the Senior Challenge Cup. These two are outstanding in their special events as well as being good all-round athletes ; they should go far. The Intermediate Challenge Cup was won by J. Gait and the Junior by H. Powell. F. Sherwood ran a well-judged race in the Half Mile to win the Beardmore Cup. Mr-. Norman Wilson has very kindly given a Challenge Shield for Inter-House Competition in Athletic Sports. This was won by a narrow margin by Dominion. SUMMARY Senior Sports Results for last five years. HIGH JUMP Record, P. Smellie 5 ft. 7 Record, F 100 YDS. R. Daniels | 10 4 5 1926 1927 1928 1929 1930 J.
