JANUARY/FEBRUARY 1985

1985 Legal Offices Fun Run

Following the unprecedented success of last year's Fun

Run in the Phoenix Park, it has been decided to organise

another Run this year on Sunday, 5th May, 1985 at 3.00

p.m.

The Run will take place in the Phoenix Park over the

same course as before (starting and finishing at Lorraine

Hockey Club). There will be spot prizes of an alcoholic

nature to mark the occasion.

For those of you who lack that competitive instinct

(and we stress that this is essentially a "FUN RUN") there

will be the satisfaction of knowing that your entry

subscription of IR£4.00 will be donated to Concern's

Ethiopian Famine Relief Fund.

It is anticipated that every participant will try to obtain

sponsorship for this event for Concern. Special sponsor-

ship cards

and

running vests will be made available on

request.

This is a great opportunity to get in a spot of exercise on

a Sunday afternoon, meet interesting people, and at the

same time contribute to a very worthy cause. Please send

your entry subscriptions to any of the undersigned,

crossed and made payable to "Legal Offices 10K Fun Run

Committee".

Patrick MacEntee Cup

Solicitors - 4

Barristers - 2

Revenge is sweet was the thought reflected in the faces

of the victorious members of the Solicitors' Team, which

defeated the Barristers 4-2 in the annual soccer match for

the Patrick MacEntee Cup. The Cup was donated by the

Chairman of the Bar Council in 1983, to be played for

annually by a team selected from the Solicitors, and one

selected from the Barristers. In the inaugural match, held

in 1983, the Barristers were worthy winners by a 6-3

margin, despite a hat trick by Michael Staines. This year,

however, the Solicitors captured the cup in an enter-

taining and exciting match, played just before Christmas

at Blackhall Place.

The pace was very fast from the beginning, and the

Barristers went ahead with a beautifully taken free kick by

the man of the match, Dudley Solan, whose last

appearance in a major contest had been for U.C.D.

against Everton at Goodison Park!

In the second half, the play began to run more in favour

of the Solicitors. This was due in no small part to the

appearance of veteran Bill Jolley, and Michael Kealy

scrambled the ball past the Barristers' goalkeeper, Chris

Meehan. A well taken free kick by Johnny Walsh was

headed home by Solicitors' man of the match, Tom

Donaghy. The Bar seemed to be on the run, until Solan

struck again and beat Eamon Gill from ten yards.

Michael Kealy then scored again for the Solicitors to give

them a 3-2 lead and the match was put beyond doubt by

another fine goal, this time by John O'Brien.

The Cup was presented by Hugh O'Flaherty S.C.,

standing in for Paddy MacEntee S.C., who was engaged

elsewhere. Though magnanimous in defeat, he indicated

that an enquiry would be held by the Bar Council into the

whole affair. Anthony Collins, President of the Incor-

porated Law Society of Ireland, was obviously delighted

to be present at the ceremony.

For the record, the teams lined out as follows:

Solicitors' Team:

Eamon Gill, Michael Staines, Johnny Walsh, Denis

McSweeney, Tom Donaghy, Niall O'Leary

(Captain), Peter Gartland, John Breslin, Michael

Kealy, Ken Murphy, John O'Brien.
