ST BEDE’S BALL.

Old Boys’ Association Annual Reunion. MANY EX-PUPILS GATHER. Man}- ex-pupils of St Bede’s College gathered last night at the Winter Garden when the Old Boys’ Association held its ninth annual ball. With their friends they spent a happy evening in re-establishing old friendships and recounting school-day escapades. Loyal to the college and its activities, many old pupils came from outlying districts, including Little River, Ashburton and Rangiora, and one and all acclaimed the ball a great success. Father A. L. Burger, S.M., rector of St Bede’s, and Father B. Blake, S.M., an ex-pupil, were among the guests. Music was supplied by the Bailey-Marston Orchestra and novelties added merriment to the programme.

The following committee was responsible for the arrangements, which had been excellently carried out:—Messrs L. P. Barrett (president of the association), R. B. Boland (honorary secretary), B. Taylor (treasurer), P. 1). Shea, W. Quirk, P. Egden, B. Daly, J. Ainger, J. 11. Blackmore and S. Barrett.
