Athletic Club.

The Athletic Club had a most successful season during which many members reached a high standard of performance. Our appeal for long distance men met with a good response, the result being that we were placed in both the distance events at the Easter Tournament. Griffin and McCormick who trained conscientiously during the whole season are to be congratulated on their fine performances in these events. The standard of performance is rising in all events and the Club is proud to have supplied the team which carried off the Shield for the third time in succession. There is still room for men in the field events, for, although we won the Shield, we did it with four men. As the performances of Tracy and Jackson will be dealt with elsewhere we will not go into them any more than to extend to them our heartiest congratulations on their splendid efforts. New blood will be welcomed in the team, and all those who entertain hopes of Tournament honours should get in touch with the Athletic Club so as to be prepared to start training at the end of the season.

(We understand that the Athletic Club held a very successful meeting on the first Saturday of the session and regret that no report thereof has been forwarded.—Editor.)
