I'IIESIDENT'S REPORT
Following is the report of the president. George Francis:
This evening we bring to I. close what. I consider has been another successful year's a.ctlvlties'of this grand old athletic Association.
The chairmen of our various committees will be reporting in de- tail concerning their respective sports so I will not attempt to steal any of their material in my brief remarks. However, I would be re- miss in my duty as your president if I did not enumerate our general activities of the past year:
In hockey. Jack Ka.no's commit- tee did a grand job. They had teams in every age group of boya' competition and also sponsored a ladles' team. -'
Baseball under the chairmanship of Donnie Mccormack was also popular and Abegwoit teams com- peted in every age bracket.
As usual our track and field oom- mlttee under chairmen George Welter: did a. splendid job and our boys kept the Abegwelt name to the fore in all meets.
In rugby. lnmer Blanchard again gathered together I grand bunch of enthusiastic athletes and in my opinion these boys showed real sportsmanship.
We had no teams in basketball competition this past year but prea- entiy we have a house league in op- eration under the direction of George Scentlebury and nrl Nich- olson. We will also have boys and girls team: for Island competition.

Among the achievements accom-
pllshed during the year was the breaking of n. Maritime record by an Abbie member. Wendall Barrett set 9. new record in the rlrnning broad jump here at the Dominion Day Invitation Meet.
