THE PARK BENCH 23 by Martin with 371V2, Bate with 3262, and Haultain with 249. All the Houses were well represented with both supporters and contestants, and it was this fact that contributed greatly to the general success of the day. To the members of the Staff and the Student Body who organized and conducted the various events, credit is indeed due, and is cheerfully given, and even if Mr. Andres-n's tape did get tangled, and the starting-gun did refuse to work, l am sure that the rest of the school will join me in saying that Track this year was one of City Park's best. -P.

The enthusiasm was good at first but dwindled off until we were obliged to give over the floor and the time to the boys' baskeiball. The officers were Helen Stone and Audrey Anton. Badminton seems out for the duration, but after the war, there will be a re-I awakened interest in the many sports now suffering from lack cf support. -HELEN STONE.
