OLD PETERITE NEWS COMMEMORATION Commemoration will be held this year on the 28th, 29th and 30th July, when the Earl of Scarbrough will be the School's guest of honour. An outline of the programme for the three days is given above, and further details will be sent to O.P.s in due course. The O.P. Dinner and the Annual General Meeting of the Club will be held on the Friday, the 28th. We would stress the importance of a large attendance at the Annual Meeting. Only on this occasion in the year can the Committee and the Head Master have an opportunity of ascertaining the views of O.P.s in general on matters affecting the well-begin of both the Club and the School. We hope that as many O.P.s as possible of those able to come to Commemoration will make a special effort to be present at the meeting. There will be the usual Cricket Match (Friday and Saturday, 28th and 29th July) against the School, and any O.P.s who would like to play for the Old Boys' XI should apply to David Anderson, Rokeby, 10 Brampton Road, Bramhall, Stockport, Cheshire. It is hoped to arrange for three O.P. Fours to row against the School, on Saturday, the 29th. K. H. Rhodes, at the School, would be glad to hear of any who would like to take part. Coxes, of course, will be wanted.
