SCHOOL SPORTS

Successful Annual Fixture LARGE PROGRAMME OF EVENTS The Ashburton County School Sports Association held their 41st annual sports meeting in the Domain yesterday.

At the invitation of the president, the; Mayor (Mr E. C. Bathurst) presented the trophies. Before doing to, Mr Bathurst complimented Mr Thomas on; his many years of service with the association.
