It took time for students, stunned and confused by their new freedom, to percolate and settle into appropriate activities. We lost a few strong bodies to more glamorous sports, but also gained some determined harriers. Apart from the usual training sessions, and trips over difficult terrain, the highlights of the season were the two big inter- school meets, one at Brock University, and the other, the second I.S.A.A. Championship held here at Appleby. The Brock Invitational is always very tough competition against large schools. Our U17 team placed 6th out of 11 and the U20 team, with Peter Taylor making a distinguished guest appearance with the harriers, placed 6th out of 9 in a tense race. For the I.S.A.A. Championship at Appleby, the traditional Senior School course was abandoned and a longer, more challenging, course substituted. Seven schools took part. Only three fielded teams in every event. Ap- pleby came third, overall.

To begin with, it really was a first for Appleby ' s 1st Hockey team, to do as well as they did. The usual trend was to just scrape the bottom of the League, and perhaps win the odd game with one of the Local High Schools. The year, we only lost to two of the six major I.S.A.A. com- petitors - Upper Canada and St. Andrew ' s. These particular games tended to be awfully close up until the last few minutes of the third period, when the op- posing team would pop in one or two quick goals. Out of the twelve I.S.A.A. games, our record was extremely impressive; and as a result, Appleby ended up as third out of seven teams in the League. To look at the team at the season ' s start, one would have said we had a small, youthful, talentless team. But as time went H o c k e y
