28 Pole Vault: 1 P. Dunch. 6 ft. 7 ins. (new event). Hop, Step, Jump: 1 P. Dunch, 2 W. Boyle, 3 G. Young. 33 ft 9 ins. New record established of 55.0 sees, by A. C. Burns in Heats. GROUP E and D— Relay, Senior: 1 Darrell, 2 Butterfield, 3 Saltus. 51.9 sees. 2— INTER SCHOOL SPORTS— APRIL 4th. Having trained for many gruelling hours, leaving school often two hours later than the other boys, our competitors had their reward on Sports Day. From the five Boys ' groups, A to E, we came away with four of the Group Cups, and after last year ' s disappointing showing it was most gratifying. Even the fifth cup was almost ours for we lost it only in the Relay Final, our team being placed third. First would have certainly been our position (for we easily beat the final time when winning the heats) , but the team was dogged by ill luck, being fouled twice and having to carry a virtual passenger with a pulled muscle. Group A ' s R. R. Doe is to be congratulated on his two successes, in the Long Jump and Relay, besides being placed second in the High Jump. Worthy of special praise in the junior events were the efforts of K. Kitson who was not only one of the mainstays in the relay team but won both his other events. Group C were well on the way to success when they failed in the Relay but the success of Simth in the High and Long Jump cannot be passed over, particularly since he trained harder than other competitors. The two senior groups romped home with comfortable margins to secure, as usual, their group cups. A. C. Burns ran exceptionally well in the mile, lowering the 7-year-oJd record to 5 mins. 1.2 sees. Another commendable effort was that of Gray- ston when he threw the record distance of 107 ft. 3 ins. in the discus event. Congratulations must also go to D. Thorne on winning all his three events. There can be no doubt that the day would be accurately described as a great success for the School.
