 The field meet always is an outstand- ing event for the young folk of Birming- ham, but the presentation of the prizes never fails to outdistance the actual competition. And so the auditorium of the Sunday school building of the First Methodist church was crowded Thursday morning when Director Po- que, his staff of supervisors, and mem bers of the park and recreation board, began passing around the prizes.
 The various playground groups were seated in sections. Rivalry was keen, and when their favorites were an nounced as winners, mighty cheers went up.
 Prizes Without End

medals, silver medals, bronze medals, stick pins, and other trophies. The winners ranged from cute little girls in rompers to strappling boys who were just getting accustomed to their long trousers. Everybody was happy, even if the assembly, did mean that the 1924 playground season was officially ending with the prize awards.
 Mir. Pogue gave unstinted praise to the supervisors for their work in mak- ing the playground season just closed the most successful in Birmingham his tory.

 There were more prizes this year than ever before, and hence, more prize winners. Mir. Pogue thanked the mer- chants of the city who had generously made possible the wide variety of awards.
