And here we are with the next session 1962-63, starting with the hockey and rugby teams . The trophy the rugby team has is ( once again )the James Murray Memorial Trophy for rugby sevens.

And here are the final two pictures, the netball team and the magazine committee.

David Denver, the editor,later in life went on to be a lecturer in Politics at Lancaster University, as mentioned here where he and his brother are pictured in younger days. I've seen him quite a few times on local news here giving his analysis of political developments.

Thought I recognised David Denver there - Netta confirmed my thoughts. As I recall he was a Beggs Terrace lad and a former Eglinton pupil. His sister, Betty was in my older brother's class.
