Among the Sports. — Railway Hostel Boys have a Good Week

Among the Sports.
Railway Hostel Boys have a Good Week.

We came across the following sports programme for one week arranged by the boys of the Railway Hostel. As a sample of an average week's engagements, it shows that in the course of their study of railway business, physical development is receiving among the cadets a full measure of attention. One cadet remarked recently that there was so much “doing” all the time at the Hostel that he found no time to spend his pay! Presumably it is to meet some such difficulty as this that Friday has been left a blank.

Monday: Wrestling.
Tuesday: Harriers.
Wednesday: Boxing finals, 10 points for
Champion. Social evening to follow.
Thursday: Hop, Step and Jump and Putting the Shot.
Friday:
Saturday: A sports meeting will be held at Izard Park, Wadestown, commencing at 2.30 p. m. The following events will be run:—100 yards flat; Relay (teams of four) 400 yards; and 440 yards flat.
