The Hamilton meet closed tne C. C. I. season as far as track and field sports were concerned. The seaso;1 just completed was perhaps the most successful yet on record in the C. C. I. This was probably due to Jack Portland who is destined, we are sure, to become one of Canada's greatest- athletes. The real credit goes to Mr. Reynolds who by hiil coaching has brought C. C. I. track and field sports to such a standard.
