The Sports were held on Monday, April 3rd, at 2-30 p.m. The weather was, as usual, bitterly cold and windy, but there was no rain, and conditions were, on the whole, favourable for running.
The Mile had been run on the preceding Friday as usual. The Sports themselves provided some close finishes, and unexpected results. Sedman, who started fast favourite for the Victor Ludorum, was unable to maintain the reputation he had made for himself in previous exploits, and this coveted trophy went, instead, to W. Toulmin, who won both sprints and both jumps, covering the 100 yards in only a fifth of a second outside W. D. Draffan's School record of 10 1-5 seconds.
The prizes were presented by Mrs. Yardley. The Committee would like to take this opportunity of thanking her, and also all those who acted in various capacities as judges, starters, and timekeepers.
