               The 1954 Annual Re-union Dinner of the Kajang High School Old Boys' Association was held at the  Lee Wong  Kee Garden Cafe on Saturday , 3 rd  April . There were  169 members and guests present, including the Hon'ble Mentri Besar, Inche Othman bin Mohammed and Mrs. Othman , the Hon'ble the British Advicer, Mr. F. V. Duckworth , the District Officer Ulu Langat, Mr. J. L. M.  Gorrie , and the Presidents  of the Victoria Institution and St. Johns  Old  Boys' Associations.

               After the Loyal Toasts , Inche Abdul Aziz  bin  Haji  Abdul  Majid ,delivered his presidential speech and  he said, inter alia :

               "  There is one great characteristic of the Kajang High School Old Boys of which I feel proud to speak about , and that is the goodwill, broad friendliness ,and the total absence of any communal consciousness which have always existed  among ourselves. It was only last night when  I  was  affectionately referred to as an elder brother by an eminent Chinese Old Boy of the school . Frankly, I cannot overestimate the value of this sentiment. I call it our greatest asset, greater even than a blazing record of successes in other fields of activities or a substantial bank balance. In these days of conflicting ideologies and perplexing political doldrums ,the Old Boys of the Kajang High School can justly feel proud that they stand apart as a shining example of racial concord and true community spirit. I hope that this will endure the ravages of time and will develop till it becomes a citadel upon which a true common citizenship for this fair land of ours can be founded. I look forward to it with hope and confidence ,and earnestly  commend to our Sports Secretary that he should form several Kajang High School Old Boys' teams free from all vestiges of racial and communal  consideration to take part in the various leagues in the Ulu Langat District ."

                After the speeches ,the presentation of the Abdul Aziz Challenge Trophy took place. PUAN  HIJJAH KAMARIAH ( bold - mine ) ,wife of the President, presented the trophy to the Sports Captain of the Old Boys' Association ..................
