Edinburgh Schools Athletic Team

Evan Reid asks: I recently came upon a short reference to the Edinburgh Schools Athletic Team meeting the Glasgow Schools at the annual inter-city athletic contest which was held at Scotstoun, Glasgow in June 1955. I wondered if by chance anyone had a full copy of the Edinburgh Team List covering the three age groups which were - Group A (17-19); Group B (15-17) and Group C (13-15)?

I was at Boroughmuir at the time and some of the other Boroughmuir lads who were in the team that come to my mind were Arthur Leitch, Tom Gifford and John Hughes.

Maybe you have been searching endlessly for the right place to buy a special present or an unusual cookery ingredient. Perhaps you would love to trace an old school friend you lost touch with years ago, or maybe you have always been intrigued to know the history behind a local landmark.
