Mary Marquis - amuir - 04-11-2012
does anyone know what year she presented prizes at Langside Hall champs ?

It will be in the minutes of the Glasgow Congress because Walter Munn kept these in great detail. Don't know who has these books now (I never had them when I was congress director).
I'd guess it would be late 70s.

I have carried out some research.
The photo of Mary Marquis is dated 1969 when she presented the prizes.

In 1972 Kitty Lamonte presented the prizes.

The 1972 Congress Committee was : G Bonner, S Beaton, J Pursley, W Munn, J DIck (what happened to him ?),
N H Wilson, AJ Shaw, WP Watson, E Martin, E Fitzjames.
I shall be donating this photo + another of the 1975 Scotsman winning team (St. Aloysius)+ 1978 Glasgow Herald
winners (Sinclair,Swanson,Norris,Muir) + others to the archives
