On a lighter note, the annual theatrical sports, hosted in conjunction with the Prince of Wales Theatre, featured a fancy-dress procession from the city centre to the Coventry Road ground for athletic events including sprint and 440 yards races for the footballers (won by Caesar Jenkyns and Teddy Jolly respectively), a skipping race for the ladies of the theatre, sack race (won by Harry Lupino) and egg-and-spoon race open to all, and a handicap race for the members of the orchestra – the handicap being that they had to carry their instruments.
