Other activities were less weather dependent:
Squash was only sparsely populated by OSE
but it is hoped that this will be the start
of a renaissance in OSE-School matches.
A round of matches between
Charlie
Everett Harries-Jones
(C, 2006-2011)
and
Jack Morland
(C, 2008-2013), several
School players and MCR, Alastair Cook and
Andrea Antoniazzi was much enjoyed but
no overall winner was recorded.
In the shooting range – possibly for
the last time – a full team of OSE took
on a depleted School side as one team
member was delayed waiting for the
weather to allow a charity parachute jump
while another found an unexpected clash.
Nonetheless, by the power of statistics,
it became clear that the OSE were better
new Music School remains to be seen but
generous or enterprising OSE are invited to
come up with solutions.
The final sport to be reported was Sailing
with the MCR fielding a team against pupils
and Old Radleians. The Warden (helm for
the MCR boat) was sparing in his reporting
about the standings against Radley but did
admit to a 2-0 victory by the pupils.
As with the Squash we hope very
much that those available might increase
in numbers for future fixtures. Those
interested in participating next year are
urged to contact the OSE office.
James
Dubois

Squash Rep will be delighted to hear from
you while the post of Martyrs Sailing Rep
remains open – any offers.
Thanks go as ever to the individual
sports Reps, Pamela Keeley-Butler for her
tireless efforts in ensuring all is in place
on the day and of course to the excellent
Catering team that provided a delicious
curry lunch.

Pain

died in September 2013. The trophy was
duly awarded for the 3rd successive year
