Group Cup Gained SWIMMING — 1951 When the School re-opened after the long sum mer recess we were only one week from the Inter-House Competition. Most boys, of course, had trained throughout the summer and were in excellent shape for the meeting which took place at the Langton Pool on September 21st by kind permission of the B.A.A. No new standards were set this year and only one was equalled when R. Leach went the 25 yard length of the pool to clock 16.2 sees, for the backstroke (under 16). In many events some extremely strange strokes were seen and it brought home only too clearly the need for specialised coaching, even in such a place as Bermuda, where swimming facilities are surely unrivalled. Frequently the judges were ready to dis- qualify competitors in the breast stroke, but an appeal to leniency (since most of the offenders were small boys) caused the offence to be passed over. It did clearly show, however, that swimming coaching would be most useful as a school activity, if only enough time could be found to include it in the games scheme. RESULTS GROUP A— 25 yards Freestyle: 1 M. Spurling, 2 R. R. Doe, 3 M. Harrison. 19.1 sees. GROUP B— 25 yards Freestyle: 1 D. Hayward, 2 J. Bluck, 3 A. Cooper. 16.8 sees. GROUP C— 50 yards Freestyle: 1 Grayston, 2 R. Atkinson, 3 P. Kuhn. 33.2 sees.

Saltus Old Boys ' Notes First of all the contributor of these notes would like to say at the start that the following ramblings on the activities of Old Saltonians are based on those events with which he is familiar, and it is to be hoped that other would-be contribu- tors will come forward in the future so that all the works of Old Boys may be suitably noted. John Cox, Chairman of the Board of Trustees and long an outstanding figure in Island affairs was honoured by his late Majesty with a knighthood on the occasion of his Majesty ' s birthday. All Old Boys were highly delig4ited that Sir John received this accolade and will join in wishing both him and Lady Cox continued happiness. Tommy Vesey, stood down as President of the Old Boys ' Association after a long and notable tenure of office. Tommy, now on the Board of Trustees will continue his good work for the School in his new position. Stuart Outerbridge was elected President of the Association for 1952 with Bill Wilson, Vice-President, and Duncan Gosling continues his thankless but arduous job as Secretary-Treasurer. The new committee are Horace Egg Frith, John Biscuit Watlington, Fenton and Eldon Triming- ham, Jr., Peter Welch and Campbell Burroughs, who has returned to Bermuda after long years abroad. We wish them all a good year and ask you all for continued support.
