YMC raises £3,000 for
Solicitors Benevolent
Association
The Y MC has completed the
annual programme of events in aid
of the Solicitors Benevolent Fund,
and has raised £3,000 for the fund.
T he p r og r amme of even ts
consisted of a series of table quizes
in Cork, Limerick, Kilkenny and
Dublin and the annual soccer blitz
which featured in the June
Gazette.
The grand final held in Dun
Laoghaire was attended by the
winners of the Cork and Kilkenny
regional quizes. For the second year
running the Kilkenny team took first
place and once again proved their
generosity by redonating their
winnings to the fund. Further
generous gestures come from
Dowling Butler and Co. (second
place) and Arthur Cox & Co. (third
place). As tradition would have it,
the final was hosted by Gerry
Griffin and Mrs. Moya Quinlan both
of wh om con t r i bu t ed to the
s uc c e ss of the event.
Many t h a n ks to the Irish
Permanent Building Society for
their sponsorship, to the sponsors
of the raffle prizes particularly Alan
Benson of Easy Travel and finally to
Sandra Fisher, Colette Carey and
the Younger Members Committee.

Limer ick Quiz
The Limerick Quiz took place in
J ur y 's Hotel on Thursday 5th April.
There were thirty four teams repre-
senting all aspects of Limerick
Business Life. Whilst the Irish
Permanent Building Society was
the Na t i onal s pon s o rs in all
locations throughout the country,
local sponsorship was also exceed-
ingly generous. J u r y 's donated the
use of their function room free and
Pat Enright, Solicitor (William A Lee
& Sons) was exceptional once
again as Quiz-Master. Bord Telecom
and Limerick Corporation tied for
first prize and the Revenue
Commissions came a close second.
The Westair Helicopter Ride as the
individual prize in the raffle was
also won by a member of the
Revenue. The prizes were pre-
sented by the President of the
Limerick Bar Association, Margaret
O'Connell. We are very grateful to
her for coming along. Margaret
however appeared a bit uncomfort-
able presenting prize money to the
Revenue! A most enjoyable evening
was had by all with special thanks
to the IPBS for its sponsorship.
