Younger Members

Committee Seminar

A Living from The Law

The Younger Members Committee recently organised

a Seminar entitled A

Living From Law

which took place in

Dublin on Saturday, 11th May last. The object of the day

was to provide informed advice of a practical nature by

members of the profession for fellow members on matters

such as Setting up in Practice, Buying an Old Firm,

Partnership, Finding Your First Job, etc. The Committee

were highly gratified by the attendance despite the fine

weather and were particularly pleased to note that the

numbers were divided equally between Apprentices and

Practitioners. The day raised in excess of £600 for the

Solicitors Benevolent Fund. The Committee wishes to

extend thanks to the following who spoke and so kindly

gave up their Saturday in order to assist; Patricia Harney,

John Schutte, Ken Murphy, Patrick Kelly, Peggy Behan,

Joanne Sheehan, Justin McKenna, Ivor Fitzpatrick,

Brendan Schutte.

Apprentices Athletics Club

We would like to announce the setting-up of the above

club and to welcome as many members as possible to our

ranks. The general aim is to have fun getting fit, with the

more specific objective for those so inclined, being to

compete in the Intervarsity Athletic Association's Cross-

country and Track and Field Championships.

A certain amount of work and quite a number of

procedures have had to be gone through to have this club

accepted as a member of the Association. We now expect

final ratification next March, allowing us to compete in

the Inter-Varsity Track and Field Championships next

May, in Trinity College. Those Championships, far from

being confined to running, also include jumping and

throwing events.

To satisfy the Rules of the Association, only full-time

students are eligible to compete. Everybody who is

currently under Indentures is therefore so eligible for the

full duration of the Indentures. We do, however, very

much welcome qualified solicitors to join, even though

they will not be entitled to compete in the Championships

proper.

Needless to say, the club is intended for both sexes and

not to be a male bastion. We will be meeting every

Thursday, at 6.30 p.m., in the Gym in Blackhall Place for

some manner of training. Some manner it will be,

especially initially, as there will obviously be different

levels of fitness and people will train at their own level.

The founders participate actively at club level and have

also competed at Inter-Varsity level for a number of

years, so a certain amount of experience in this area is

claimed. We have just completed the Law Society's 13th

Professional Course.

All enquiries concerning the club are welcome and

should be made to either of us, at Blackhall Place. We

look forward to your support and participation.
