7/09/1957 Hastings Observer 119	TEAM SUCCESS In the East Sussex Cycling Association 50mile trial on Sunday, Hastings and St Leonards Cycling and Athletic Club enjoyed Its first team success since the 1955 season. Only three members rode, but each did his best time of the year at the distance, and their aggregate time was about 3½ minutes better than that of the Southborough club's team, who were next among the nine competing clubs. A Moorhouse [Tony Moorhouse] was fourth fastest in 2hr 12min 36sec; M. Carpenter [Maurice Carpenter] did 2hr 13min 22sec; and J. Southerden [Jack Southerden] 2hr. 16min 58sec. The winner was K Griffiths, the Uckfield Club’s fast veteran, who did 2hr 9min 11sec. In the women's section E. Rolleston [Esther Rolleston] did 2hr 35mln. 10sec. The Sunday run went out Chalvlngton for lunch, and tea was Hawkhurst. Some fast times have been returned in the club's recent 10-mile trials, and last week's event two were inside 25 minutes, with A. Moorhouse first in 24min 50sec; and M Carpenter second In 24min 59sec. Tomorrow's run will leave from the King’s Head, Ore at 6 am. Tea will be at Beckley. Event:
