The following were the Officials: President: H. E. Major-General J. W. Sandilands, C.B., C.M.G., D.S.O.
The most exciting of the Inter- Unit events decided on Saturday was the 440 yards relay which was won by the Royal Artillery team (four runners) in 9 ins 42.1/5 secs. They snatched a win from the K.O.S.B., in the last five yards of the last lap and brake the tape by, a touch. In the first two laps of this Levent the K.0.S.B., led comfortably, man got in hut the R.A's third front and gave a fine start to their last runner. This did not, however, discourage "Pte. King, the K.0.8.B.'s last man who chased the leader all the way and after a gruelling run managed to pass him coming into Sugden, R.A., Lieut. C. E C.

the tape.
The R.A. man was not beaten, however, and putting all he had into a final spurt, he again got on erea terms with King. They ran side by side almost up-to the tape, each trying to get in front, and eventually the R.A. man just got there with a final sprint which had King fairly beaten.
Aggregate Cup Possession of the Aggregate Cup was keenly contested in the earlier events, and its destiny was at first a very open matter. After the in- terval, however, it developed into a hard tussle between the K.0.S.B., and the E.A., the former just win- ning with a total of 49 points to their rivals' 47, The scores of the other units were:-Somerset L.L., 37 points, Punjabis 25 points, H.K.S.B., R.A., 17 points and Small Units 3 points.
