SCHOOL LETTER. HE near approach of Half-term reminds the Editor that he must again set to work and write an account of our School events. This term has been a very busy one, as it began with practising for the Sports, the Boat Race and the Gymnastic Competition ; which were all postponed from the end of last term, and being for once favoured with fine weather came off in the most successful manner. The Sports took place on two exceptionally fine days, and though perhaps this was more favourable to the spectators than to the competitors, still we heard very few complaints, and the " times" on the whole were quite good. After these events the School was able to start cricket in earnest. We wish the Captain and his team all success in the coming season. The prospects seem quite bright, as the two matches which have been played reflect great credit on the team. The first match against Ampleforth was splendidly contested, and though we just lost, it was by no means a disgraceful defeat. The match against Bootham was unfortunately spoilt by rain. At present the chief topic of conversation in York is the Pageant. We are eagerly waiting to see our costumes which are mostly being made at the School by a number of ladies with Miss Owen at their head. We are much indebted to them for this kindness. In the Carpenter's Shop too we see formidable weapons being manufactured. The School attended one rehearsal en masse, but we are told• that their performance did not exactly charm the Pageant Master. We are however confident that when the time comes they will pass all the bounds of excellence. •

THE OLD BOYS' GATHERING. For the convenience of " week-enders" the Old Boys' match has been fixed for Friday and Saturday, June 25th and 26th. Old boys, not playing in their team, who can get down for the gathering are asked to communicate with the Headmaster. On Saturday, June 26th, Holy Communion will be celebrated at 8 a.m. The Commemoration Service will be at ir-4.5, the sermon being preached by the Archbishop of York. At 8-3o p.m. the usual Conversazione in the Gymnasium will be held, at which will take place the Annual Meeting of the Club. The Headmaster will at all times be grateful to hear of or from old boys who may have lost touch with the School.
CAMBRIDGE LETTER. DEAR EDITORS,
Most old Peterites seem to be living a very secluded life this term—one can only infer that they are all working hard. RAIMES especially has hidden himself with such skill that I had almost despaired of being able to send you news of him. However, a friend from Ridley Hall assured me that " Oxford " was flourishing. E. C. PETERS is no mean hand with the tennis-racket, and in the open tournament at Christ's was drawn against the captain and gave him a very uncomfortable time. COLLEY is still troubled with his knee, and has recently been to London for an operation. It is to be hoped that it has been successful, and that next " rugger " season will find him fit and well again. He has been elected Secretary of Emmanuel College R.U.F.C., and has been promoted to the rank of Corporal in the C.U.O.T.C. CLEGG is happy with the thought of May week. Like most medicals he has little time for sport, but occasionally plays cricket and tennis. He is in the Jesus shooting eight.
OXFORD LETTER.
335
M. W. PETERS has played regularly for Christ's at cricket, but has not been as successful as last year. The worry of " exams." is doubtless the cause. INGHAM also is seldom to be seen. He is of course working hard for his May. Tennis seems to be the attraction, but he has also done duty for Selwyn ist at cricket. BULMER is seriously thinking of complaining to the Cambridge Motor Company about the " busses " which pass his window every 15 minutes, and hinder him in his studies. " They are a continual source of nuisance," he was heard to say, " especially when they wake you early in the morning at 9 a.m." But enough of this gossip. Time is precious at least to some of us. Wishing the cricket Xl. the best of luck. Yours, CAMBRIDGE.
OXFORD LETTER. DEAR EDITORS, " Men may come and men may go," but demands for Oxford Letters to the " Peterite " cease never (see " the Brook," Tennyson). Vehementer miror quare huc scripsetis. This term is not one in which Old Peterites can display their energy. The enervating and pitiless glare of the Southern Sun prostrates the stern and hardy sons of a Northern Alma Mater, accustomed to the rude blasts of BoreasPhillips always excepted. GR EENHOW is indulging in tennis and being punted. KIRBY is working hard. We congratulate him on flooring " Mods. He is greatly in demand as a Punting man, when one's Lady friends come up. HUSBAND arrived here and promptly got measles, though only of a Teutonic nature—funny how everybody is Teutonic now-a-daysthink it must be in the air or the brain, but am not quite sure. He is at present engaged in trying to discover the fallacies of John

CRICKET PROSPECTS .
Stuart Mill, and rather fancies himself as an opponent of the Budget and a pillar of the constitution. PHILLIPS is ubiquitous. He works hard, plays at cricket and goes in for soldiering. We hope to see him make a good bid for his " blue " next term. We have had the pleasure also of a visit from Raimes ; who seems rather ashamed of himself for deserting his first " love." 0 si sic Omnes !
Yours, 0.P., Ox.
CRICKET PROSPECTS. Six of last year's eleven, viz., Sullivan, Peters, Taylor, Lacy. Ferguson, and Foster, R. D., will be available for the coming season. These should form a good nucleus for this year's eleven. For the five vacant places candidates will probably be found in Lawton, Fernandes, Norwood, Wallace and Mills. Most of these show good promise as batsmen, and Lawton and Norwood should be useful bowlers. If the old members retain their form, and the new blood prove useful, we have every reason to hope for a successful season. The degree of success, however, will depend, in a great measure, on the efforts made by each one to improve himself in every department of the game. There is every prospect that, given an ordinary amount of good luck, the cricket team of 1909 will close the season with the matches won considerably predominating over those lost.

Played on May 2 2 nd, at Ampleforth. Sullivan won the toss, and he and Peters opened the School Innings. Runs came very quickly and 6o was up in half-an-hour. Taylor then came in, and he and Sullivan had a long partnership in which they both played excellent cricket. Sullivan completed his so, but was caught in trying to pull a " long hop." After t his there was a regular procession and, although the score had been 120 for 2, the side was all out for 141. Ampleforth started well and the runs came fairly quickly. The score stood at 12+ for eight. The ninth wicket fell at 136, and the scores were exactly equal when the last over was called. Amidst the greatest excitement the winning hit was made off the last ball but one of the match. Scores :

Played at Bootham, May 26th. St. Peter's School batted first, and runs came slowly, as the wicket was a difficult one for the batsmen. The second wicket produced a good stand, and Sullivan

played very well for his 3o. The score rose steadily, nearly all the batsmen contributing something. Fernandes and Lacy made a good stand, and Lawton played excellently. With the total at 1+1 the innings was declared, leaving Bootham an hour and a quarter to bat in. They started badly—Marriage being bowled with Taylor's first ball. In fact, none of the batsmen seemed to settle down to the bowling, and four wickets fell for 29. The rain then came down and stopped play. For St. Peter's Taylor bowled splendidly, taking all the four wickets for 15 runs. Score :— ST. PETER'S SCHOOL.

ST. PETER'S SCHOOL V DURHAM SCHOOL.
Played at Durham, on May 29th. Durham won the toss, and put us in first on a difficult wicket. We began disastrously, as Sullivan was run out when only eleven runs had been made, and four runs later Taylor was bowled. At 18 two wickets fell in successive balls. After this, however, there were two good stands, Lacy, Ferguson, and Lawton all played very well at an exceedingly critical point. But even so the innings closed for the poor score of 119. When Durham went in the wicket had dried completely, and After the fall of the first favoured the batsmen a great deal.

HOUSE v DAYBOYS. BOAT RACE. This race was rowed upon Tuesday, 4th of May. Owing to the postponement from last term the House Boat had lost three of its members, and the Day boys one. The House winning the toss and taking the far side of the river, got off first, and led until the first turn below the School boat-house, when the Dayboys caught them up and rapidly went ahead. The House struggled on, and opposite St. Mary's, partly owing to No. 2 in the Dayboys boat getting entangled with his oar, and partly to a plucky " spurt," crept up to within half a length of their opponents, but in the final " spurt" the Dayboys again got away and won by a length and three-quarters.

GYMNASIUM.
342
GYMNASIUM. The Annual Competition took place on Friday, May 7th. Major Hely-Hutchinson very kindly acted as judge. The challenge shield was won by " The House," who were victorious in both sections of the competition. The cup for individual work was won by J. F. Colley, who is very promising for his age. In the Swedish Drill Section of the competition the teams were very evenly matched—the Boarders winning only by a slight superiority at " the horse." In the Gymnastic Section the Boarders had no difficulty in securing a victory ; this was due chiefly to the keenness shown by some members of the House. The standard of both sections was rather low, but this was probably caused by the unfortunate postponement of the competition to the summer term, and the difficulties of training in the holidays. The postponement was detrimental to both sides ; as the Dayboys lost not only the zealous leadership of J. D. Wells, but also a promising member of the team—T. W. Fisher ; and the House lost C. C. Taylor, Wells' successor to the captainship. The marks were as follows :-

We shall be very sorry to lose Sergeant-Major Ferris this term. He had a very wide experience and always took great interest in his work. His energy was boundless, and we feel sure that it has left its trace behind, by the marked improvement in the keenness of the School during his time. We should like to congratulate him on his appointment to be School Marshal and Gymnasium Instructor at the United Services College, Windsor ; and to welcome his successor, Sergeant-Major Blackwell.

NATURAL HISTORY AND PHOTOGRAPHIC SOCIETY.
THE VETERANS. Oh cricket's an excellent game, don't yer know, If only yer able to play ; But if yer capacity's only so so, It's not very much in yer way. It's all very well to say " Soon you'll advance " And some day be one of the best ; " But we poor old beggars—we " aint got no chance," And its all very well for the rest. " Look at me ! This is right, don't yer see, and that's wrong," And they show yer the method of play. Then a great lump of leather comes hurtling along And yer find yerself right in the way. It's all very well if yer batting, yer know, And yer bowling is some of the best. If, when yer put off, yer can turn round and go, But it isn't much fun for the rest.
N.Q.
NATURAL HISTORY AND PHOTOGRAPHIC SOCIETY. The above Society made their Annual Excursion to the north of Yorkshire on June znd. The weather was favourable, which was more than was hoped for on the previous day. The part of Yorkshire decided on this year was Wensleydale, being an extremely picturesque district, and well adapted for photography ; also being a country of trees and glades, t was very suitable from an ornithological point of view. The river Ure, moreover, which flows through the valley is an extremely good trout stream, and attracted two rods from the members of the Society. Flowers also were abundant, and added greatly to the magnificence of the scenery.
34-4-
SHOOTING.
Tickets were taken to Askrigg, which was the village to which all were to assenible for tea; most of the members, however, alighted at Aysgarth, the previous station, close to which are the three famous Aysgarth Falls. The journey was broken at Bedale through which a small trout stream flows, which was fished for a short time by some of the members; the remainder made their way into the village, some photographing the church, others purchasing chocolates. Leaving Bedale again at i I-1 r there was a general disembarkation at Aysgarth ; from here, some made their way by road, others by river to Askrigg ; many however remained in the neighbourhood searching for birds' eggs, etc., and took either the 2-55 or 5-12 train to Askrigg. Other places of interest visited by some of the members of the Society were Addleborough, 1,564 feet in height, and Semmer Water, a large lake about a mile in length. Bear Park would also have been an interesting place in the neighbourhood of Aysgarth, but was not visited. At six o'clock all met at Sykes' Boarding House for tea, after which the station was sought ready for the 6-49 back to York. This is the first time the Society has been quite as far away from York, but will probably not be the last time Askrigg and Aysgarth will be visited, as everyone enjoyed the day and it certainly proved an ideal spot, both from a Natural History and Photographic point of view.
SHOOTING. Mr. Hallows very kindly offered a shooting cup, for which only those who had not shot at Strensall were allowed to compete. The competition was held on Thursday, May 6th ; and C. L. Armstrong won the prize with 3o, out of a maximum of 5o. R. F. J. Strange and E. Harvey tied second with 29.
ATHLETIC SPORTS.
345
ATHLETIC SPORTS. The Athletic Sports, originally fixed for Friday and Saturday, April znd and 3rd, were held on Tuesday and Thursday, May tith and 13th. A very fair number of spectators was present on the first day, and though the weather was very enjoyable for them, it was almost too hot to be pleasant for the performers. The Thursday unfortunately was very cold, as it rained between the two days, and it was feared that the prize-giving would have to take place in the Big Hall. But as the wind dropped a little towards the end of the afternoon, it was held outside, Mrs. Dodsworth very kindly giving away the prizes. The Victor Ludorum was carried off by J. H. B. Sullivan, who won no less than six open events, accumulating 14 points. The points between the House and Dayboys were equally divided, each taking 16i points. Only four Old Boys turned out for their interesting race, in which R. M. Wood came in first. RESULTS. 211d. st. G. Wallace R. Strange Long Jump (under 16) Putting the Weight (open) J. H. B.
