THE FIELD DAY A rather cool, dull Friday, May 16th failed to dampen the spirits of the competitors on Earl Grey’s Annual Field Day. All events were run off on Friday except the girls’ High Jumps which were concluded on the following Monday. Room 13 garnered the greatest number of points (44) to win the trophy for their room. Shir¬ ley Zelmer, Room 10, secured the highest num¬ ber of points (8) in the girls’ division, but failed to win the trophy. Three ties provided keen competition in the Boys Individual Trophy. Dave Hansell, Room 13, Bill Haywood, Room 21, and Dick Kruse, Room 21, taking 9 points each. Very well done boys! Some of the highlights of the Field Day were: KEN BAXTER, an intermediate, jumped a record smashing 15 ft. 8 in. in the boys broad jump; BARBARA DAWSON, a senior, took first place in the girls ball throw as she threw the ball a distance of 117 feet. GOOD FORM IN HIGH JUMPING Perhaps the greatest battle of the day was between the two Daves, Dave Hansell, Room 13, and Dave McCheyne, Room 12. They both jumped 5 ft. 9 in. in the high jump. Neither could defeat the other. Finally after a number of tries, Dave Hansell cleared the pole and Dave McCheyne touched the top of the pole by the narrowest of margins. At this time, on behalf of the students, we would like to express our thanks to all the teachers who made the Field Day a success.
