Trolley Derby
Youngsters of all shapes and sizes, and trolleys to match, competed in the Old Boys' Hockey Club's annual trolley derby down Collingwood Street. Major trophy was again taken by John Baumfield, whose jet-lined Thunderbird, steered from a prone position, easily romped home in the big race, but there was lots of fun for all.
