Ideal weather favored the event and about fifteen hundred people attended. The beautiful ath- letic grounds where the field day is held made an ideal setting for the fine program of sports and attractions which crowded the day and the smoothness and efficiency with which all arrangements were carried out was a tribute to the officers and commit. tees who had charge of the event. The softball tournaments proved to be a major attraction and in both the lad- ies and men’s games there was lots of keen competition and some excel- lent play. Thornhill ladies won out and the winners of the mens rural section was St. John’s team of Scar- boro, and of the city section the Gide- ons of Toronto. Dick Walker’s clown band proved an entertaining attract- ion and they dispensed peppy and popular music during the afternoon. A sumptuous supper was served in the rink by the ladies of the district whiâ€" ch was par excellence and in the even- ing‘ adelightful concert was presented by the Burt Lloyd Novelty entertain- ers. Elmer Taylor, of Silverthorn Public School, gained the greatest number of points in the junior boys interâ€"school section, thereby winning the school individual championship cup for the year 1929, while his school succeeded in carrying off the much coveted John Breakey trophy, presented by Mr. John Breakey.

This is the lst year that such an event has taken place and the in- terest, enthusiasm and rivalry were very keen. Happy, eager children were determined to do their part in winning the trophy for their respect- ive schools. Parents were delighted to see their children have the oppor- tunity to compete in so many events. The whole inter-school activities were a huge success and many amusing in- cidents occurred. The pillow fight brought screams of laughter when two representatives from each school took part and they did fight, knowing that each had their respective school be- ‘hind them. In the finals Elmer Tay- lor and M. Kehler fought to the last notch. They say birds of a feather flock to-gether, but in this case those birds fought together, when Elmer’s pillow burst, bust or broke we don’t know which. Anyway young Kehl- er came out victorious amid showers of feathers. Silverthorn succeeded in carrying off the trophy and they also had the boy champion, Elmer Taylor. Silverthorn won 51 points and Thornhill 31. Schools that com- pleted were;â€"Thornhill, Langstaff, R. H. McGregor; Silverthorn, Rawlin- 'son, Richmond Hill, Edgeley, Lansing, Danforth Park, BurlingtOn Beach. One of the very attractive events uto every one and particularly to the schools was the marching and drill by At the union picnic held at Mussel- man’s Lake last Saturday, June 29th, the local ladies ball team showed good ‘form when they defeated Newmarket by a score of 13-3, then they met the Stouffville aggregation in a hard fought game. The heavy hits of the ‘locals over the crowd, that surround- ed the diamond, did not give them their usual advantage as only one base was allowed. However the ex- citement was intense as the game ran up to ten innings, when Stouffville scored the winning run. THORNHILL LADIES CARRY HOME FIRST MONEY. JULY lst Thornhill Field Day, July lst was a decided success as far as our loeal ball team was concerned. Their first vic- t01‘)‘ Was against Lansing last years league winners, when they defeated them by a score of 14-3. But they spoke in whispers of the next game for they had to meet Cee-l3ees, of To- ronto in the final game. This team defeated Thornhill last year by one run, carrying off first prize and in two exhibition games through the sea- son defeated the locals. Every ner- ve was on edge, our girls were slow at starting, allowing Cee Bees four runs in the first inning. But they began to wind up to business and to a finish that put Thornhill on top. The score was 8 to 9. THORNHILL DISTRICT NEWS THE LIBERAL. RICHMOND HILL, ONTARIO the Langstaff school conducted by Mr. McDonald, principal.
