For the first time, the Junior School took part in the daily Chapel services. Each Friday, a boy from Grade Eight would read the lesson and Mr. Stuart would then talk on the material in the reading. The Junior School day boys also sang one verse by themselves of the Friday hymn. A pleasant innovation, the Friday readings have become part of the Chapel routine. A club was formed this year to give the boys a chance to camp in the out-of-doors. North of the campus, a camp- site was set up at Bruce Trail, just a half hours drive av ray. During the Autumn Term, several very successful overnight trips were made. However, the club ' s activities were curtailed in the Winter Term due to the extremely cold weather. On March 5, the Junior First Hockey Team played Lakefield in Maple Leaf Gardens. Even though we lost the game 5-7, the opportunity of playing in the Gardens was an exciting experience. Our thanks to Mr. Giffen for arranging the icetime. 71

Junior School - Second Cricket XI Captain: Paul Runyon An unsuccessful season owing to a lack of Cricketers at this level. The side tried hard, and deserves praise for keep- ing at it even when in losing situations. There were several players to whom the game was unknown before the season began, but who shaped up well and from whom we can expect better play next year - boys such as Pritchard, L. Thompson and Moffat. Among the other players, M.J. Thompson shaped well as wicket keeper and batsman, and K. Morrison has promise as an all-rounder. Runyon, Bloomfield and Morrison shared the attack. Results: School vs Ridley: Lost by 80 runs 48 128 for 7 School vs S.A.C.: Lost by 15 runs 33 48 School vs U.C.C.: Lost by 15 runs 40 55 School vs Ridley: Lost by 64 runs 46 110 Junior School - Third Cricket Xi The team had a very successful season with a win and a draw against Ridley and a win against Upper Cauda. The team was led by Stuart McLaughlin who proved to be an excellent bowler at this level and a very capable batsman as well. The team was weak when batting and was forced to rely on the bowling skills of McLaughlin, Keil and Burke 1 and some very tight fielding. The enthusiasm of the whole team was very much in evidence on the field and against Ridley the team was well behind after the first innings but refused to give up.
