HAWKER ENGINEERING CO.'S SPORTS DAY DESPITE the attentions of our all-too-familiar friend Jupiter Pluvius, the Hawker Sports Day at Kingston on August 23 was a great success, and the large crowd who braved the elements were amply rewarded by the splendid racing and competitions. Great keenness was shown in the inter-departmental compe titions/particularly in the tug-of war event, and in the relay race for the Sopwith and Sigrist Challenge Cups respectively. The fitting department, after a hard contest, won the tug-of- war event, defeating the machine shop by two pulls to one, but the tables were turned in the relay race, the machine shop running in fine style. Some good times were recorded, and in the high jump J. Ross cleared 5 ft. 1\ ins. The Police team from Sunbury defeated the East Surrey Regiment in the final of the open tug-of-war, and the Hawker teamjwon'the open relay race. The prizes were presented to the successful competitors by the wife of the "managing director, Mrs. F. Sigrist, and pro ceedings terminated with ,an open-air' dance, ^all having thoroughly enjoyed the sports day. The whole arrangements were in the hands of a committee, with Messrs. Whitehom and Scott at the head, and they are to be heartily congratulated on the result. Those present included Mr. and Mrs. F. Sigrist, Mr. and Mrs. F. I. Bennett, Mrs. Hawker, Capt. L. F. Peaty, Mr. F. S. Spriggs, Capt. and Mrs. K. Robertson, Mr. Sellar, Mr. F. C. Neman, and Mr. R. W. Sutton. AT THE HAWKER SPORTS : A^tug-of-war and, below, the slow-riding bicycle race 557
