BACK ROW: Sell, Bethune, Bundschuh, Stoneham, Jackson III. The second team has enjoyed another highly successful season. None of our opponents was really able to match the strength and depth of Appleby ' s swimming, although Ridley managed to beat us in one meet when our team was without the services of McLaughlin and Sur- phlis. The prospect of these boys taking their place in the first team is indeed an inviting one and will ensure several seasons of excellent competition in this sport. Special mention - Stuart McLaughlin, individually un- beaten in two years of com- petitive swimming: an out- standing performance. Well done, all of you! J.B.

centrated on freestyle sprinting and currently holds the School 50 and 100 yard freestyle records. David Stuart and Johnathan Morgan, with David Hawley and John Wright, are the current holders of the I.S.A.A. Freestyle Relay record having smashed the previous seven year-old record by over three seconds. School Colours were re-awarded to Wright, Bloemen, Stuart and Morgan. One of the remarkable aspects of the season has been the con- tribution of the younger team members. David Burke, Grade 9E, has had an outstanding season - winning for the Oakville Aquatic Club, he has broken five Ontario Provincial records in breastroke at his age level. Swimming for the Appleby Club, he is personally undefeated and now holds two I.S.A.A. records. 100 yard breaststroke and 100 yards individual medley. David Hawley has swum steadily all season, but illness and a late start to the season have meant that he has not been fully fit. Desmond Burke started slowly, but soon improved his per- formance and has turned in a fine consistent effort. He is a good all-rounder and works very hard - much will depend on his performance next season. Chris Wood, having worked hard and swum both 2nd and 1st team, has eventually found his sport: after several promising attempts in butterfly, suddenly, he turned in a sparkling performance to take the School Record while swimming against Ridley College. Maarten Bloemen has dived con- sistently well and has made real headway with his backstroke swimming. Although not exactly one of the youngest members of the team, Ian Cameron has struggled gamely with illness and lack of fitness to come through finally with an outstanding performance in Toronto to take 4th place in the 100 yard breaststroke. School Colours were awarded to: David Burke, Desmond Burke, David Hawley, and Maarten Bloemen. We are fortunate to have so many excellent young swimmers to depend upon for the following season. In conclusion, I would single out the highlights of the season as the wL.ning of the Kiwanis Trophy and the I.S.A.A. Cham- pionship and above all, the really great spirit and comradeship shown throughout the long and arduous training sessions. Well done, all of you. J.B. I.S.A.A.

First C r ■ I c k e t FRONT ROW; Large, Josselyn, Taylor I, Jamieson, Wetmore. BACK ROW: Mr. Larsen, Baiz I, Gaskin, Webb I, Harrigan, Suchanek. Morrison, Mr. Dickens. ABSENT: Dickens. Having lost seven of last year ' s team, we had to look for some replacements to build into the new team, and this building took time. The rookies had plenty of desire but not much technique, so it was no great surprise that we started out struggling. In fact, the first game, against Mississauga, was typical of games to come. Ross Large bowled well without much luck and we could not get the op- position out. When we batted, we stayed in but no one, apart from Jim Wetmore, could score runs. A coaches ' team showed that Mr. Josselyn had not lost his touch with a bat and that Mr. Leggat had played more than soccer! Then the Oakville Captain, Mr. Logan, bowling with a hurricane behind him, was just too fast for the boys.
