18 a cup presented by Mr. Clarendon Masters. Each Saturday morn- ing H. Masters managed to sail his boat to victory, and won the June Series with thirty-five points, the highest possible score. Next in line for the cup were S. A. Thompson and H. Williams who each amassed twenty-three points to tie ior second honours. The summer holidays enabled races to be sailed on Wednesdays as well as on Saturdays. The mid-week series was for a trophy do- nated by the Commodore of the Royal Bermuda Yacht Club, Mr. N. B. Dill, and on Saturdays the dinghies sailed for a cup presented for annual competition by Mr. Briggs Cunningham, well-known Ameri- can yachtsman. This latter series was finally won by I. S. Outer- bridge who obtained 51 3 4 points to beat S. A. Thompson by five points. O. H. Darrell was third with a total of thirty-nine. The Wednesday races for the Commodore ' s Trophy were more evenly contested. In the final race O. H. Darrell came in third, and won the series by 1 4 point margin over S. A. Thompson, who plac- ed second in the series with 43 points. H. Watlington was third with 36 points and also gained his position by obtaining 1 4 point more than H. Williams. To show their ability in every branch of the sport, Bermuda ' s future international yachtsmen elected to sail a series of team races, which was finally won, H. Masters ' team consisting of himself, S. A. Thompson and M. Wainwright. Each member of the winning team received one of the three small cups donated by an anonymous ad- mirer of junior racing in Bermuda. It is interesting to note that seventy per cent of the dinghies which raced last year were sailed by past or present Saltus boys, and, without doubt, they will again succeed in winning their laurels this summer.

17 BOXING COMPETITION. The Boxing Competition, held in the Assembly Hall on Friday, March 11th, proved a very great success both from the spectators ' and competitors ' points of view. The keen competition and the skill of the boxers this year was very apparent, owing no doubt to the beneficial coaching of Mr. John La Rue, to whom we are indebted for his voluntary work in coaching the boys. Since this year ' s competition was the third at- tempt at the school, there ' was a marked improvement in all the weights, especially among the smaller boys, who always take a keen interest in any such competition. On the night of the competition the Malloy-Green and Smith- Thompson bouts proved the most i-nteresting from everyone ' s point of view, although all the bouts were very keenly contested. Malloy and Green both showed their fighting spirits by going at it with all they h-ad, while Smith and Thompson fought a very scientific fight and at the same time proved they were both capable of taking it. Other bouts outside the actual competition which were very interest- ing were the Crawford-Thompson and Dale-Motyer bouts. At the end of the programme Messrsi. Childs and Fenessey very kindly staged an instructive exhibition bout. Thanks are especially due to Mr. Tucker for the lights, Mr. Hin- son Cooper for erecting the ring, Mr. Hayward and the B. A. A. for various equipment and to all those who so very kindly helped on th« night of the competition. JUNIOR DINGHY RACING. No one has ever denied that small sailboat racing is a healthy outdoor pastime, but few seem to realize the benefits to be derived from thisf sport. It does not only serve for the development of the body, but it also develops the mental powers. Initiative, alertness, and concentration are necessarily improved by sailing races, and no race is ever won without the winner showing good judgement in rounding marks and estimating distances. Apart from these quali- ties good Eiportsmanship is as essential as it is in any sport, and it is with this spirit that a short account of last summer ' s dinghy racing is given. Last June the Bermuda Dinghies again resumed their racing In the waters of Hamilton Harbour. The first series of races was for
