This year the Senior team entered a four-team league consisting of Assiniboia Residential School, St. Boniface College, St. Paul’s College and ourselves. Because of cold weather at the beginning of the season, the team was able to get a week of practise u nder Mr. Bredin at two exhibition games before the Christmas holidays. After the holidays, the league got into full swing. After an initial tie with SBC, the team seemed to have difficulty putting anything together, and consequently lost quite a few games by one goal. The team worked hard to improve, but we unfor¬ tunately hit our peak in the final game against St. Paul’s, where we lost the two- game total point playoff by one goal in overtime. The team played its final game against the star-laden Old Boys Squad, and after a very close, hard-fought game, they managed to squeak out a win in overtime. All in all, it was quite an enjoyable season, with the team being helped by Bob Roper, our top scorer, A1 Graham, with his tomahawk slapshots, Paul Bell’s nu¬ merous shots from just inside the blueline or 185 degrees to the net, and Peter Hammond’s fairly solid body checks. In closing, we would like to thank Mr. Hammond for his support during the games, and Mr. Bredin for his work in practise, teaching the team many skills which we lacked, but by the end of the season, managed to obtain, with the aid of his teaching.

t- enior J Couse J CocL As usual, Hamber House overpowered all its opponents, and came through both rounds of House Hockey unscathed. Both Young and Rich¬ ardson felt they might take the crown from omni¬ potent Hamber this year, but Hamber, with its combination of skill and determination (and a little help from Bill Ramsay, our number one draft choice from the Winnipeg Junior League) managed to win in spite of all. No doubt Hamber will continue its control over House Hockey in the future. Scores: H. vs. Y. H. vs. R.

Front: Little, Leatherdale, Kiddell. Only two games were played in the Junior House Hockey League this year. The first game, between Richardson and Hamber, was very close, with Richardson winning 5-4. It might have been closer, but Hamber didn’t have its regular goalie. The second game, between Young and Richard¬ son, was a different story. The Young House tribe scalped Richardson 18-2. No names will be given, so none of Richardson’s team will be embarrassed. Because players did not come out for the Young- Hamber game, it was cancelled, and therefore the round was not finished. Young House was given the trophy in spite of this, because it looked as though they were the better squad. intermediate Letball Scores: SJR vs. MBCI . 5-38 SJR vs. Viscount .31-22 SJR vs. North Y.48- 7 SJR vs. Edmond Partridge 25-44 SJR. vs. Pembina Crest .48-17 SJR vs. Viscount .32-22 SJR vs. Viscount .43-31 SJR vs. St. Vital Y.47-36 SJR vs. St. Vital Y.31-30 SJR vs. Central Y.24-33 SJR vs. East Kildonan Y.37-69 Back: Mr. Stemshorn, McCaskill, Wilson, Cox, Gall, Young, Mr. Petrencik.

Back: Kiddell, Sanders, Gall, Gardner, Mr. Bredin. Front: Campbell, Magnus, Honeyman, Everett, Williams. This year the Midgets were in a private school league, consisting of St. Boniface, St. Paul’s, Assiniboia, and ourselves. The school began very well, playing nine games in all, winning five and tying three, and giving us second place before the playoffs. Unfortunately we weren’t able to enter them because Easter exams were too close at hand. Honeyman was outstanding in front of the net, the only rookie goalie of the year to score a goal. Kiddell, Magnus, McCallum, and Brekke were also outstanding, both off the ice and on. We thank Mr. Bredin for his coaching.
