THE

PETERITE. VOL. XIX.

JUNE, 1906.

No. 175.

SCHOOL LETTER. S is usual at the beginning of this term, the weather was most unseasonable for cricket, rain or cold winds rendering cricket practices most unenjoyable. However, cricket is now in full swing, and though we have not yet won any matches, we had hard luck in being beaten by Romany and Durham School.

Since our last number appeared we have held our Sports, for which we were especially favoured in having two most beautiful days. The results were most satisfactory, almost all the records of last year being improved upon. F. G. Schroeder is to be congratulated on winning the " Victor Ludorum " with eight points, M. W. Peters and Scoby being a point behind. The boat race between the dayboys and boarders did not come off last term, but a date will probably be fixed after the termination of cricket. The date of the Prize-Giving has been fixed for Saturday, July 28th, on which day the School breaks up. The Old Peterite match will be, as usual, on the 28th and 29th of June.

In conclusion we hope the XI. will have a very successful season.

ATHLETIC SPORTS.

ATHLETIC SPORTS. We were, this year, favoured by beautiful weather for our Sports, which were held on Friday and Saturday, April 6th and 7th ; and most of the performances of last year were improved upon. F. G. Schroeder accomplished a great performance in winning the Mile, the Half-Mile (Handicap), and the Quarter, and also carrying off the " Victor Ludorum." Among many good performances the Half-Mile was the best, when Schroeder, running from scratch, won in the good time of 2 min. 7 sec. Scoby and M. W. Peters both did well, Scoby winning the i oo (open) in sec , and M. W. Peters running a dead heat with Husband in the ioo (Handicap) in i 1 sec. In the Junior events Wood ran well in the Quarter, and Kennedy also distinguished himself.

Wallace and A. J. Peters showed great promise in the Junior High Jump. At the conclusion of the sports the prizes were very kindly given away by Miss M. Owen.

CRICKET PROSPECTS. With the material at our disposal this season we should, at anyrate, do better than last season. We expect M. W. Peters and Blenkin will be the mainstay of the batting, while we hope for many runs from E. C. Peters, Clegg and Greenhow. Jones, Kirby and Ede should also do well in batting. The remaining three places will probably be filled by Schroeder, who played several times last season, Colley, and Tendall, who will keep wicket.

We shall be strongest in bowling, with Jones, M. W. Peters, Clegg and Greenhow, who were all regular bowlers last season, while Blenkin and Colley can also bowl.

The Second XI. will have a fairly good batting side, but at present, it seems as if the bowling will be very weak, Hendley, C. A. K. Peters and Groves being the only three left who bowled last season.

But don't forget fielding. In anxiety for doing well at batting and bowling, this important factor is forgotten. If you save a run in the field it is as good as if you had made a run for your side, and every time you miss a catch you give the other side another man, while there is nothing more disheartening to a bowler than to see his catches missed.

ROMANY C.C.

This match was played on the school ground on Saturday, May 26th. E. C. Peters won the toss and elected to bat first on a fairly good wicket. M. W. Peters and Blenkin opened the batting to the bowling of Grundy and Franklin. Both batsmen found runs hard to obtain, and with only eleven runs on the board Blenkin played on to Franklin. Clegg came next, but was quickly dismissed by Grundy. Kirby commenced by hitting Grundy to the boundary, and immediately afterwards M. W. Peters was held at mid-on from a mis-hit, and with Kirby and Jones out, both victims to Franklin, half the side were out for the paltry score of z3. Then came a timely partnership by Greenhow and E. C. Peters, who raised the score from 25 to 59, when Greenhow was beaten by Burton for an energetic 18. E. C. Peters was out at 85 for a well-hit 26. Of the rest Tendall alone looked like staying, when he was out, and with him the innings closed for to', a very creditable score considering the very feeble start. The visitors opened their innings to the bowling of Jones and M. W. Peters, and runs came at a fair pace until Smithells was bowled by Jones.

Bousfield, the next man, did not stay long, being Jones' second victim. Browning, after making one, was well caught by Colley.

Then ensued a long stand between Burton and Franklin, and not until the score was carried to 65 did Jones get past Burton's defence. Franklin was the next to go, being tricked out by Colley's slows. With Anderson run out and Grundy bowled by a ball which was much too good for him, the game became very exciting, for, with seven men out, Romany still wanted nine to win. It cost them two more wickets to tie, and Frank made the winning hit after a very exciting match.

Appended is the score and analysis :—

DURHAM SCHOOL.

This match was played on the school ground on Saturday, June 2nd, in fine weather. Durham won the toss but elected to put the School in, and accordingly M. W. Peters and Blenkin were sent out to face the bowling of Jackson and Durand. With only one run on the board Blenkin was completely beaten by a ball from Jackson, but with the appearance of Kirby, affairs seemed brighter, and twenty-two runs were put on before Peters was caught off Durand, and a little later Kirby was bowled by Jackson (29-3-15). Greenhow was next unfortunately run out, but Clegg and Colley managed to stay in till luncheon. On the resumption of play Colley early fell a victim to Jackson, and the next over saw Clegg dismissed by Durand (38-6-5). E. C. Peters, who had succeeded Colley, defied the bowling for some little time, scoring eleven runs by careful cricket, but Ede and Schroeder had, in the meantime, both got out, and when Peters left the score was 9 wickets for 5o. Jones and Tendall, however, made a welcome, though unexpected stand, and added 3o runs for the last wicket, Jones scoring i8 not out and Tendall 9.

Durham started almost as disastrously as the School, E. L. Thompson being clean bowled by Jones, and a little later Affleck was dismissed by the same bowler, but Jackson, who had gone in first wicket down, began to alter matters, and hit well about him, though he was badly missed in the long field off Clegg, and could do very little with Jones' bowling. However, with this exception, Jones had matters all his own way and bowled the rest of the Durham side out, taking 9 wickets for 25 runs, though not before Jackson had been able to win the match by making 5o out of 82, and then being bowled by E. C. Peters. Thus ended a match which, at one time, looked like being a victory for the School, and which certainly would have been but for the efforts of one batsman. The rest of the Durham side could do absolutely nothing with Jones' bowling, who indeed bowled remarkably well, 8 out of 16 overs being maidens.

ST. PETER'S 2nd XI. v. AMPLEFORTH COLLEGE and XI. The opening match for the season was played on the School ground on Thursday, May 24th. Phillips won the toss, and Hendley and Groves started batting for the School. With only eleven on the board Groves was lbw., and Phillips was bowled seven runs later. Hodsman and Hendley improved matters until the latter was smartly run out for a useful 13. Peters was unfortunately given out through a misunderstanding, and though Shann stayed some time, five wickets were down for 47. With Ingham and Hodsman together some rapid scoring took place, Hodsman being well caught for a well played 22. Ingham soon followed, having quickly rattled up 19 72-7-19. Richards and Newton, aided by mistakes in the field, put on runs at a fair pace, but with the total at 94, both were out.

Ampleforth, at the start, looked like getting the runs, but Groves with his first ball put an end to a dangerous partnership, 26-1-16.

After this, wickets fell fast, Hendley actually capturing three wickets in four balls, but with the total at 76 for seven wickets stumps were drawn, St. Peter's perhaps just having the best of a very even draw.

After a close finish the fifth form managed to retain the shield for another year, while M. W. Peters won the cup with 77 marks out of a possible 90. Jones was second, six marks behind, and Ramsden, who shows great promise, was third. Scoby was unfortunate in being rather nervous at the beginning, but after the first exercise he performed splendidly. Richards also is deserving of mention, and Taylor, A. J. Peters, G.

CONCERT.

CONCERT. The final concert of the Musical Society's season was held on Thursday, April the 5th, at 8 p.m. The programme opened with an inspiring march by the Band, followed by a good song from the Lower School, who have some very promising voices. The next item cannot be looked upon as a success, for after an indifferent start the quartet dissolved into a bass solo, and finally fizzled out altogether. This was a great pity as the piece was a very pretty one and had gone splendidly at the practices. A. E. Schroeder received a well deserved encore for his 'cello solo, and the Choir performed very creditably in both their part songs, " Daybreak," especially, being excellently rendered. " The Three Jolly Sailor Boys " were again very popular, and " The Loreley " was quite well sung. M. W. Peters was much appreciated in his violin solo, and F. G. Schroeder was encored for his finelyrendered song, " Where'er you walk." The usual School song ended a very good programme, and Mr. Tendall should be congratulated on the successful concerts he has organised during the past two terms.

The Rev. Jas. Butler, who was an assist.-master at St. Peter's from 1829 to 184z, is said to have kept a boarding house for the School at 69, Low Petergate. Among his boarders was E. H. Powell. A testimonial was presented to him when he left to become Headmaster of Burnley Gr. Sch. Some papers relating to the School when it was at St. Mary's Hospital, Bootham, have been found in the Record Office. There is difficulty in deciphering them, but it is hoped that they will throw fresh light on the position of St. Peter's during the Commonwealth.

March 28th. At his residence, Albermarle Crescent, Scarborough, W SURTEES HORNBY (0.P.).

Mr. Hornby was the son of the Rev. R. W. Hornby, D.D., a well-known clergyman and lecturer, and an authority on arch ae ological matters, among his writings being a history of York. Dr. Hornby's father was one time Sheriff of York and the last member of the old Cordwainers' Society. Into his possession passed many relics of the Society, including the famous Scrope Bowl, which the Doctor subsequently gave to the Minster.

Mr. Surtees Hornby inherited considerable property in York and suburbs, chiefly in Clifton, Huntington, and Heworth, and for very many years he carried on the business of estate agent in Blake Street. His public life in the city began in 1879, when he was elected a member of the Board of Guardians, a position which he held uninterruptedly for fourteen years.

During the last eight he was Chairman of the Board, discharging the business with marked ability. On his retirement from the latter position a complimentary dinner was given to him by the members, at which he was presented with a handsome silver epergne, and by the officials with a Tantalus spirit frame.

Mr. Hornby entered the Corporation in 1884, being elected for Bootham Ward along with the late Mr. R. P. Dale. Three years later he was appointed to the aldermanic bench to fill the vacancy cause by the resignation of Alderman Thorp. Mr. Hornby continued his connection with the Corporation until 1893, which

was about the time he removed to Scarborough. He was for some time Chairman of the Estates and Bridges Committee, in which capacity he rendered useful service.

Mr. Hornby was Justice of the Peace for the North Riding, and frequently sat on the Bulmer East Bench, of which he was the second senior magistrate. He was a musician of some attainment. He had attained his 6oth year, and leaves a family.

In addition to judging at all the principal English shows, Mr. Scott's services were requisitioned for the competitive exhibitions at Chicago, St. Louis, New York and Antwerp.

He bred and owned, in partnership with his brother-inlaw, Mr. W. Allison (manager of the Cobham Stud Company), the famous sire. Jester, who is still represented in all the chief prize rings by his descendants.

Mr. Scott, who was 6o years of age, was the eldest son of the late Rev. George Scott, Vicar of Coxwold, and was educated at St. Peter's School, York, afterwards being articled as a land agent and surveyor with the late Mr. Robert Wise, of Malton. He had an extensive practice, and was agent, up to the time of his death, for the Earl of Wharncliffe's estate, for Mr. H. A. Lowther's estate in Wensleydale, and for numerous other properties in North Yorkshire. Death was due to acute pneumonia, and came very suddenly, as lie was up and about his business at Pickering on Tuesday afternoon. Mr. Scott was a Conservative, and he defeated Mr. N. Maley (Liberal) in the last election for Filey, for the East Riding County Council.
