much for the School Rugger. Mr. Jeffs, a senior scholar of Christ's College, Cambridge, will take up the post of Assistant Science Master. To turn to sport. The Cricket XI has met with varying sucess. They had one spell during which they beat Worksop College, Giggleswick, and Leeds Grammar School, but for the rest of the season they were mostly disappointing. At the beginning of the season it appeared that we should have a strong batting side, but as often happens in cricket, it was our bowlers who usually won the matches. It was at rowing that the School were most successful. Two cups were won, the 2nd IV winning the Ladies Plate at the Tyne Regatta, a cup which the 1st IV won two years ago, and the 3rd IV won the Mason Challenge Cup at Tees Regatta, which was won by the 1st IV last year. Nottingham High School were defeated away by both 1st and 2nd crews, whilst the 2nd and 3rd IV's defeated Leeds University 3rd and 4th IV's respectively. Detailed accounts of these events will be found elsewhere. Unfortunately the VIII race against York City could not be arranged this year. And so on the threshold of a term which has every prospect of being most successful at work and games, and a year which promises to outshine its predecessor, we take our leave with the hope that you will find the rest of this magazine worthy of your attention.
COMMEMORATION DAYS, 1938. FRIDAY, JULY 22nd. This year Sir Bedford L. Dorman, Chairman of the North Riding Educational Committee, kindly consented to distribute the prizes, at 8-15 p.m. on July 22nd. The Dean of York, Dr. H. N. Bate, presided. Mr. Dronfield in his speech said that good progress was being made with the forward policy which tihe Governors had adopted. The refitting of the boarding( houses would be finished before the beginning of next term. They would now have to provide a new boarding house, as next term the existing houses would be completely full, which was a very encouraging position when embarking on schemes of extension. 2
