The second half was featured by Malvern's great plunging offen- sives. Their first 60-yard march ended on the Oakwood 10-yard line on a fumble. An Oakwood muff, however, gave them a chan- ce to boot over for a point. In the last quarter the Red and Black fired up the old steam roller again but our gritty lads tightened on their five-yard line. When Malvern tried for yards on a plunge instead of chancing an onside kick their big drive died dismally 3-yard line., Three minutes to go says the later he a relief! Oll Olll' referee, and four hours blows his whistle. What The east-enders had only been able to snatch one point. Oakwood won because they had heads as well as hands and feet, was the consensus of opinion. THE OAKWOOD ORACLE Malcolm Robb contributed the following: It's nice to sing a little song About the Oakwood teams. With cow-bells ringing with a bong We fought and made our screams. Mustard is the fair-haired boy With beautiful complexion: He does not dare go near the girls, For fear of their affection. Aruup is the little chap Who always does his best, Those of them who're brave enough, Get straight-armed in the vest. Bruce Fenner has a mighty boot And kicks just like a wizard: And when they try to stop his They get it in the gizzard. Romberg is the fastest guy Upon the Junior team: And when he flits around the end, We're proud, and yell, and scream. SENIOR RUGBY TEAM I Q... Back Row: W. Prince, W. Burnie, A. W. Dunkley, B.

THE OAKWOOD ORACLE Oh! Dellabough's the fastest lad t'pon the Senior teanig With curly hair and lots of dare Big Wally, the maiden's dream. THE SOCCER TE.-1M Captain-W. Brodie, Wettall, Baggs, Ramsay, G. Bailey, Dick- son, Cockrane, Gray 1. Bailey. Hooper, Cross. Spares, Fetkins, Fenelon, Ixemp. Wet weather dogged our soccer this year, but brought good luck in its train. Commerce Seniors defaulted to Oakwood and Bloor tied us. Hum- berside Seniors were signally de- feated after a tough naval battle. The field was submerged, making it necessary to use subs. The Humberside victory over Bloor left Oakwood Seniors the winners of the western group. On Nov. Zllth., we met the bril- liant Riverdale players at Hamp- den Park and won a muddy vic- tory.

I-fa Lf 1 ' 1' CAME THE DAWN The first half began with a short lived rush by Riverdale. Oakwood got the ball and swept up the field. Our forwards tried two shots in quick succession. The eastern goal- ie saved and the playing surged back to centre. Riverdale got down but Brodie starred. He made sev- eral fine saves, despite the greasy ball. During the remainder of the half, Oakwood held its own. In the second half Oakwood got the slight wind and pushed back their opponents. There was a fierce and muddy struggle. A Riverdale fellow emerged from the morass and supported by the rest of his team rushed up the field. Brodie and a crooked shot saved for Oakwood. Upon the kick the Oakwoodites tore down the field. There was a flash of red. Dickson had scored a freak goal. The ball was centred and play was evenly matched till Oakwood gradually got within striking distance. Irwin Bailey struck two goals for us. The re- mainder of the game was finished mostly in Riverdale territory. The team worked together ex- cellently owing to lVIr. Blathwayt's untiring efforts during the whole season. llc dcvotcd a great deal of time and thought to the team and I feel certain that we could have no better coach than he.
