29 the Sports would have to be postponed as heavy rain was falling, but the sun broke through, and conditions were ideal. Prior to Sports Day, Hayward broke the Group C. Javelin by more than 20 feet, and also the Pole Vault record. Couper set a new time for the Group D. mile, while Outerbridge 2 put the shot a record; distance of 34 ft. 7 ins. for Group D. A new time for Group E, 220 yds. in 25 seconds was made by Cassidy. Other new records were made by Wooten, Group B. Javelin; Couper 880 yards Group D; Ferguson Group A. 50 yds; Outerbridge 2 Group D. Hop-Skip- Jump; Smith Group E. Javelin; and Williams 2 Group E. Pole Vault. The last named is Pole Vaulting in good style, and will improve his height of 8 ft. 5% ins. by a good margin. Some exciting races were witnessed, Group E. mile especially so. Williams 2, set a good pace, and held a lead until the last 200 yjards, when Chlappa, timing his effort nicely, just won at the tape. Smith came very near to the High Jump record, but failed by V2 inch. Using ' straddle ' style to begin with he changed to ' siccors ' for his best jump. He will improve on 5 ft. 4 ins. if he continues with the ' straddle . Valuable assistance was rendered by the following gentlemen: Messrs. H. E. Evans, P. S. Welch, C. E. H. Cooper, J. S. Outerbridge, P. Gosling, T. Vesey, D. Measures, H. Masters, J. Barritt, R. Doe, M. Godet, K. Davis, M. Cooper and S. Gassoigne. Mr. D. J. Williams was the referee and the prizes were presented by the Rev. E. M. Rule. ATHLETIC SPORTS RESULTS. GROUP A 50 yds. — 1. Ferguson, 2. Hayward, 3. Clark Time 7.7 sees. High Jump — 1. Anderson, 2.

81 Saltus Old Boys ' Association ELECTION OF OFFICERS FOR 1955. At the Annual General Meeting of the Saltus Old Boys ' Association, held in the School Assembly Hall on Friday, February 11th, 1955, the following Officers and Committee of Management were elected: President — Owen H. Darrell; Vice-President — Horace Frith; Secretary, Hon. — Nesbit Doe; Treasurer, Hon. — William Brewer; Committee of Management — Messrs. Nat Butterfield, John Chiappa, William M. Conyers, Ross Doe, Peter Welch, I. Stuart Outer bridge, Jr. OBJECTS. The objects of the Association, as laid down in its constitution, are to create and foster a corporate interest in the affairs of the School among Old Boys and generally to further the well being and prestige of the School. As recently reported in the Royal Gazette: One of the surest signs of a School ' s success, not only as an institution for im- parting learning but as a builder of citizens who will contribute to the Community, is the continued pride and interest which former pupils take in the welfare and development of the School. Saltus is fortunate in having an energetic and dedicated group of old boys and the intention of the Old Boys ' Association is to increase this group and the scope of its activities . Anyone reading this who attended Saltus is asked to help by becom- ing a financial member of the Association immediately. Members of the Committee of Management will gladly receive your subscription — please act now. WORK FOR THE SCHOOL. The Association has an endowment fund which stands at the moment at £916. The purpose of the fund is eventually to provide scholarships and to ensure that promising students will never have to leave school for lack of means. It is hoped to increase the fund considerably this year. But endowment is a long - term project and in the meantime the Association helps Saltus by contributions in other forms. It contributes funds for publication of the Saltus Year Book, presents prizes for scho-
