Councillor D. Hughes presented the prizes. He hoped that next season the girls would beat the boys in the number of wins. The prizes were all obtained by public contributions, but he hoped that in the immediate future the Governors would be able to supply the same. Also that the Governors would be able to supply the pupils with a suit- able ground for training purposes.
