Miss Donaldson, and Miss Tomlinson, and the assistance and interest of the mistresses made this a very successful day. Miss Mollison's Cup was won by VI. who gained 47 points, with II!. B. and IV. A. second and third with 36 and 32 points respectively. After much serious practice, we were able, on the Inter- School Sports Day, to put a strong team on to the field, but as the standard of the sports was very high this year, we gained only third place. We would like to congratulate Somer- ville House who won the Senior and Association Cups and St. Margaret's who won .the Junior Cup. Our girls gave a good performance both in team work and individual events and as a result many of the records that were broken came to our school. We won both the Senr. and Junr. B. Relay races in record time and Margaret Hynd, by her fine win in the 50 yards (14 years) which was run in record time, 6 2/5 seconds, again qualified for her Blue. Glynis Law also quali- fied again for her Blue by winning the 75 yards and 100 yards (17 years), both in record time. Pockets were won by Mari Morris, Norma Oliphant, Rene Pittman, Phyllis Pledger, Edna Smith, June Elliott, Margaret Batt, Mary Stormonth, Joan Beech, Marie Halford, Margaret Brown, Annette Denniss, Hilary Hodgson, Jean Saunders, Joan Moodie, Mary Hall, Helen Small and Gwen Fairbrother. The competition should be very keen next year and we feel sure that our teams will compete with the same excellent spirit which they have always shown. G.L. VI.
