Guy Competition: Bonfire Night 1972
These two photographs show the winning guy in the bonfire night inter-school competition held annually, and organised by the Round Table. This one is from November 1972. Judging was by Round Table members outside the Blyth Hall. The winning guy went on top of the Round Table bonfire. Apparently Wormit School won quite often. Eddie Grimes remembers being shown how to fold the newspaper that went inside to make the guy burn longer.
