ATHLETIC CARNIVAL

SOUTH TARANAKI SCHOOLS CHAMPIONSHIP CONTESTS T A WHITT AND MATA.PU BOTH VICTORIOUS. The officials, of the South Taranaki Primary School Sports Association must be congratulated on the splendid manner in which yesterday’s events in connection. with the Dixon Banner and Bennett and! Button ’Shield championships were con<l net cd. Without proper organisation! 'the conduct of such a large gathering would have proved a stupendous task. Everyone concerned, however, fully realised the responsibilities' of Id’s position and by carrying out the duties, allocated in an efficient manner the whole day's work proceeded smoothly and' tire events w ere run off promptly to time. ' 'Although there- were numerous willing helpers, special reference must be made of the assistance rendered! by visiting tea'chers from outlying siehoois. Mention must also be made of the work done by the honorary secretary, Mr A. K. Fyson. For many weeks past he had devoted a good deal of his time to arranging the big programme, and organising the gala, and yesterday he was always on hand with records and information! for all' who enquired. The massed assembly of children was as animated as one could Wish, the young folks thoroughly enjoying the day’s outing. There were lolly scrambles for 'the younger children and immense quantities of cordials and icecream 'were consumed, Mr F. H. Oileron shaw and! bis staff maintaining a brisk business throughout the day. Luncheon. and afternoon tea were provided under the main grandstand, the catering arrangements being supervised by Mrs .T. YV. Harding.

Fifty hoys from 'the Eltham 'Salvation Army Home, together with .Captain and 'Mrs 'Perry and members of the house, staff, attended the sports' as the guests of the committee. 'The visit was made possible by contributions to a’ special entertainment fund by Hawera friends, and no one was more appreciative of the hospitality extended and of the efforts of those who attended to their welfare than the boys themselves. The committee provided liberal refreshments, fruit and sweets and, in addition, each child received a small memento in honour of the occasion. At. the conclusion of the sports Captain Perry expressed his appreciation, and l the' boys gave 'three hearty cheers' as they matched off the grounds.
