Athletics On Thursday, March 21, in spite of the inclement weather, the Annual School Field and Track Sports were successfully completed. The Senior Point Cup was retained by D. H. Harrison, who, in turn, was re-appointed Captain of Athletics. C. F. Martin was the winner of the Junior Point Cup. Each year several events are held prior to Sports Day, in an effort to alleviate the physical strain on the competitors. This year saw three records broken in the pre-Sports Day events, which were run off on Thursday, March 14. One of these, the quarter mile final for Group D saw C. Martin establish a new school record of 64 seconds flat. On the same day, Michael Cox set a record of 20.4 seconds in 120 yards hurdles for group D. The Sports Day programme proved interesting and keenly contested. Two more records were established. C. Martin set a new mark in the Group D Long Jump with a jump of 17 feet 1 inch. Don Harrison shattered a record that he had established in the heats of the Group E Long Jump by leaping the distance of 19 feet 9 inches. One of the highlights of the afternoon was the defeat that the School Relay team administered to the Old Boys. For the three previous years, the Old Boys were undefeated, but the School team of Harrison, Vivian, Lombardo and Martin won quite handily this year. In the House Competitions, Butterfield retained the Senior Shield, while Watlington captured the Junior Shield from Darrell. H. C. E. M.

In the friendly matches which were arranged, however, the First Eleven gave a very good account of themselves. Two bowlers on the school side were outstanding and went on to do well in the Bermuda Cricket Association League play. Terceira who learned to spin the ball very well played for the B.A.A. and Smith (G.) showed up well for the C.C.C. The batting still seems to be the weakness and until nets become a regularity again little improve- ment can be expected. The old adage of the straight bat, if ap- plied, would be very valuable to some of our more promising bats- men. Results 1st XI (All out 44) V. Staff Depts. (All out 96) Lost 1st XI (65 for 5) V.
