Eight Hours' Day Lumpers' Union Sports and Picnic
Ideal weather favored the Lumpers' Union yesterday for their annual sports and picnic. A 9 am Geraldton departure carried 300 to 400 attendees to the Wamile Task Cue line event, with a full program of races, hampers, and children's sports under the oversight of secretary Mr. Hooper and a capable committee. Winners included Pollitt in the Proclamation Handicap and Richie in the hampers events, while tensions arose over maidens and starting issues. The day featured bands, a range of races from 100 yards to old buffs, and prizes from £1 to £5, ending with a popular pig chase and children’s contests.
