16 SWIMMING AND ATITLETICS. The Inter-House Swimming Competition has now become an an- nual fixture being held soon after the beginning of the Christmas Term, allowing the competitors the whole Summer In which to train. The results showed marked improvement over the two previous years, and this undoubtedly was through the keenness of the Swim- ming Captain, F. G, Lines, and through having a good coaeh in the Island in the person of Mr. W. J. Brooks. These good results were also reflected in the Inter-School Com- petition where Saltus for the second time won the banner for the greatest number of points-. In this competition the school also won three of the four age groups and scored many notable successes in the individaul events. The Athletic Sports took place on March 31st. and again there v as a most noticable improvement in the general standard of ability. Several records were equalled and thirteen were broken in the vario ' us events. N. H. Williams, the Athletics Captain, was ' outstanding, his en- thusiasm was reflected in the other competitors and was responsible in a large measure for the success of the meeting. He has since tak- en over the training of the school ' s entrants for the Inter-School Sports ' and we are hoping to obtain some success in this competition. TKE B. A. A. AND THE B. S. S. A. SPORTS. During the last year, Saltus was fortunate in gaining most of the honours in sports in the island. Athletics were no exception. The School jSports showed that records could still be broken, and the school displayed its superiority against outside competition. After the school sports the boys soon showed that they were serious in the matter of athletics. The team for the Inter-School Sports w.as picked, and, under the guidance of N. H. Williams, they began training. Every afternoon, and each morning of the holidays, the school field was alive with activity. Boysi were husy all over the place, ex- ercising, running and jumping, each boy keen to improve his style. After all this training the boys were ready for some competition to warm them up for the Inter-School Sports, and the B. A. A. Sports provided the opportunity, coming, as they did, just before the Inter- School Sports. Though only a few of the Saltus ' athletes competed, those that did made an excellent showing. Leseur came first in his group half-mile, and the Spurlings also gained first places. Williams running in the B. A. A. relay team helped to bring it home first in re-
