J Couse S( occer Hamber dominated both Junior and Senior House soccer during the Fall term, piling up comfortable leads in both leagues, and winning both Cup Finals. However, all senior teams were much improved over last year, and as the league points suggest, there was not much to choose between top and bottom teams. Soccer standards have improved tremendously, and all games were hard-fought contests, this being especially evident in the Cup semies and finals in which five games went to draws, and a flip of a coin and first goal had to decide the eventual winner. Two left feet, hands, and other uncoordinations are rapidly dis¬ appearing, much to the delight of the Masters and the players. Keep up the improvements and you will have an even better soccer season next Fall. Back: Morris, Kilgour, Menzies, McPherson, Richardson. Front: Wright, Spooner, David, Tucker, Hammond.

Headed by McGee, and followed by such athletes as Heffelfmger, Robin¬ son, Saunders, and company, they dominated most of the Divisions. McGee was the overall senior performer, Campbell of New House the Inter¬ mediate, Chapman of New the Junior champ, and Saunders its Midget. 80

ji ,; ouse This has been an excellent year for Hamber. The Seniors did exceedingly well in Soccer, Hockey, Cross-Country, Borden Ball and Basketball. The Juniors won every team competition with flying colours, and the Seniors doing well in all but Flag Football, Hamber has never had it so good. Most important to the smaller ones who did not participate in Athletics is the Honours and Stripes candies. This is a total effort by the House which has been well-supported. I hope very much that Hamber continues to do this well in the oncoming year. —Scott McPherson House Captain. 93c ardson 3 Couse l epoyt Up to this point Richardson has had a good year although we have failed to win the Honours total during the winter months, we did well in Athletics. The Juniors won Football and won most of our Hockey and Basketball games. When the semi-finals rolled around, we were overpowered by the other Houses. However, they were most disappointing because the other Houses seemed to over¬ power them in everything except Basketball where we received second. I would like to thank Mr. Gill and Mrs. Murray for their help and encourage¬ ment during the year. —Totton Heffelfinger House Captain. ( Jounp J Cc ouse Young House has been doing very well this year in sports, but has won no finals as yet. We have come up with three monthly top places in the Honours and Stripes, and have a total of 5089 honours for the first two terms. With baseball coming up, we should do better. People like Jacques, Henderson, McMurray are a great asset to the team. It has been a prosperous year, and 1 am pleased to have been the captain of such a fine House. —John Bredin House Captain. jc ; ouse We have successfully established ourselves in sports and many other activities since our formation last year. Some boys have been let down by people who collect stripes, while they are busy working for honours. In the Seniors, we came from the last spot in Hockey to a booming championship! The Cross-Country races are our pride and joy, for we finished first in that event also. New House didn t lead Bas¬ ketball, but we tried valiantly. The leaders of our House are: House Captain, Rob¬ bie McDonald; Sports Captain, Jamie Campbell; and House Monitor, Brad Gar¬ diner. —Robbie McDonald House Captain. Form 7 EW 79

s eniov For variety, senior players went to Flag Foot¬ ball on the odd day, and it was soon obvious that Richardson was the powerhouse of the league. Using the large soccer and twelve-man fields, the the 8-men teams had ample room to move around and many an exciting end-run and long forward pass was accomplished.

Hamber established strong lines, as in Soccer, led by McMorris, Ferguson, Cooper, and Riley, who dominated most of the play. Young House, with Johnson playing his heart out, gave most of the opposition for Hamber.

Up to this time, Richardson Senior and Junior teams have a combined 17Vs points to leave New House at 17, and Hamber and Young following closely at 14 and 11 points. A team of the best distance-runners was picked from all the houses to compete against the J unior High Schools, and over two races held at St. Vital and S.J.R., the team finished fourth and fifth out of eight teams running. Runners to watch in the future are Campbell, Heffelfinger, Wright, and Gardner, all very strong long-distance athletes.
