Elaborate Plans Made For Dominion Day Celebration At the Council meeting of the Anyox Community League held last week, the chief business was the coming celebration on July 1st. Arrangements were made for an attractive number of events for the Annual Sports on July 1st. The usual children's races will be run and there will be events for various distances for all ages. The Ladies' races which were popular last year will again be carried out. The marathon raoe this year will be better in many ways. The course will be a circular one, longer and somewhat harder than last years's trot to the Mine aud back. The race will start and finish at the Ball Ground. The route plan ned being up to the road at the 150 level, along the mine road past the bank down to the flats and home along the pipe line, finishing with one lap of the track at the Ball Park, this should make the race an event well worth watching. Tug of war struggles will again be witnessed and it is hoped to put this event over as big as last year's successful contest. The parade will be held in the morning and prizes will be given for several olasses of entrants. The comic entries promise to be better than ever. The Inter Departmental Relay raoe will be another exciting item on the long programme. Relay racing is always an attractive event in track contests. Every Department should enter a team- Putting the shot, jumping events, sack races and bicycle races will also be included in the day's programme. In the evening a dance will be held in the Oym, when prizes will be presented to the winners of the raoes. Everything will be done to put this sports day over big, and the committee will be glad to re oeive entries early.
