H.K. UNIVERSITY ATHLETIC SPORTS.
INCREASING INTEREST IN ANNUAL EVENT."
DR. OSMAN'S ELOQUENT PLEA FOR ATHLETICS.
Excellent weather favoured the Gifteenth annual Athletic Sports of the Hong Kong University. The events were run off at the University ground at Pokfulam, and a large crowd of visitors were interested spectators including His Excelleney, the Hon. Mr. W. T. Southara and Mrs. Southorn."

"
The standard of running, etc., was very good indeed, and although no records were broken the two short sprint records were equalled. The Pole Jump record, which formerly stood at 9 it. 8 jaches, was broken by C. M. Lee, who cleared 9 ft. 9 inches.
Lee Hak Leong won the Challenge Cup for the best individual performance presented by Sir Charles Eliot. He had 18 points, and his wins included the 100 yards dash, 990 yards (records equalled), 120 yards hurdles, and a tie for the high jump. D. J. N. Anderson was runner-up with 15 points...
The Past Students' Race created great excitement, a loud burst of cheering from students and ex-students greeting the efforts of former class-mates. The event was won by M. A. Khan.
"The Lady Undergraduates' Race was also well contested and Miss Alice Wood's win was a very popular one.
1
The prizes were distributed to the winners by Mrs, Southern following a very eloquent speech in welcome to guests in praise of sport by Dr. M. B. Osman, President of the Athletic Association.

Marine James put on a spart in the last fifty yards and breasted the tape about a foot in front of Hemsley. Davies of the P.W.D was third..
In the Long Jump K. P. Gan put up a good exhibition, and was, un fortunate in just failing to beat the record by 1 inches. The High Jump ended in a tie between Lee Hah Leong and K. Y, Lee for the first place."

DR. OSMAN'S SPEECH. Following the events the Presi- dent of the Athletic Association addressed the assembly and then called on Mrs. Southora to distri- bute the prizes,
Mr. Osman said in the course of
his address:
It is only at a function of this nature that the student body has an opportunity of welcoming all its friends and of thanking them for kindnesses shown. What more plee sant duty can there be than that which carries with it an expression of welcome and thanks?
In the name of the Athletic Asso ciation, 1 welcome His Excellency and Mrs. Southern and I wish to thank them for their continued in- terest in the Athletic side of the University.
The thanks of the undergraduate body are also due to the many who by their kind contributions of service or of gifts, have helped to make this meeting such a success. I must refer to the latest addition to our stock of Challenge Cups. Mr. Wong Tape has very generously presented a magnificent cup and a replica for the 440 yards and the Sun Co. an equally beautiful one for the Tug-of-War.
To Mr. Paul Lauder, whose annual donations come with auch pleasing regularity, we tender our grateful thanks. This year Mr. Lauder has sent us an immense cup, an English cup, as the trophy for the Mile. Mr. Sum Pak Ming has denated. a be autiful cup. I have also been ask. ed by the Hon. Secretary of the University Tennis Club to express our great indebtedness to Mr. Lake Wan Yat of Kuala Lumpur for his very generous gifts of Challenge Cups and other trophies for the tennis tournaments.
Special mention too should be made of Mr. Hunt who has again kindly officiated as Starter and of Mr. Dowbiggin for the loan of the starting gun.
This is what we wish to impress on our own students and it is our hope that the day is not far dis- tant when the 100 yards record breaker will be held in us high esteem as the holder of a scholar. ship. As this spirit grows, in- tereat ip athletica becomes more manifest, the need of more play- ing fields and more facilities for sports will become apparent. But this, a University, which staggers in the face of recurring financial crises, certainly cannot afford to provide. In olden times, it WAS considered by the princes of the realm their special care and, privi- lege, the endowment and upkeep of colleges. In these days, the princes of the newer aristocracy, the commercial kings and merchant magnates seem to have other uses for their money-at all events they seem to have, for the most part abrogated this princely privilege.
I wish here to congratulate:-- The Champion Athlete:

Masterpieces of Sacred Music
This month, Vietor offers you a selection of Red Seal Records which stand out not only by reason of intrinsic merit, but because of a peculiar timeliness. "The Crucifixion," by Stainer, is one of the most familiar and monumental of all cantatas and its release this month speaks eloquently of the season's sig- nificance. The Third Act of Parsifal, also included on this list, combines sublime music and the deepest religious fervor ever felt by man. The Victor Album of Gregorian Chants reflects the nature of its contemporary releases. We cordially- invite you to hear these records on our Victor Radio-Electrola. You are welcome to come at any time.
