OLD PETERITE NEWS O.P. CLUB ANNUAL MEETING The Annual Meeting will be held at the School on Friday, 22nd July, at 5 p.m. We learn with great regret that members will be asked to accept the resignation of H. C. Scott from office after many years of loyal and helpful service as Hon. Secretary to the Club. Other items of importance will be on the agenda, and we hope that all O.P.s who can be present at Commemoration will make it their business to attend the meeting.
"THE BOOK OF REMEMBRANCE" The arrangements for the Book of Remembrance for those Old Peterites who fell in the two World Wars have now been completed and the work has been begun by Mr. J. N. Dowse, of Newark, and should be completed by Commemoration Day. The Book will consist of 28 vellum pages, 12 x 9 ins., bound in brown calf, with each leaf separately hinged. On the front of the book will be the Cross Keys in gold and silver, and inside A fly leaf and two title •pages, followed by the lists of the names of the fallen. In the end it was decided that it would be more suitable to keep the two wars separate. It is hoped that the list of names is complete, but some blank pages have been left in case any further information should become available.
COMMEMORATION CRICKET MATCH AND BOAT RACES Any Old Peterite who wishes to play in the two-day cricket match against the School on Friday and Saturday, 22nd and 23rd July, should apply to J. M. Rucklidge (1933-39) at the School. The boat races betwen the Old Peterites and the School will take place in the afternoon of Saturday, 23rd July. It is hoped that it will be possible to raise at least three Old Peterite crews. Would any Old Peterite who would like, or would be willing, to row, please communicate with K. H. Rhodes, St. Peter's School? Coxes will also be needed. OLD PETERITE DINNER The Old Peterite Dinner will be held at Betty's Restaurant on Friday, 22nd July. It is hoped that there will be a good turn out of all ages. It would be helpful if Old Boys would organise groups of their own contemporaries, and apply for tickets in good time. The dress will be lounge suits and the price of tickets about 7/6. 7
