Major Watson has also conducted the daily P. T. exercises and. for many years, boxing instruction and the gymnastics, and during the long course of his service has never failed to show a close interest in the boys and all that pertained to their outside activities. Under the familiar name of Sammy he is remembered as a part of the Old School by a host of Cld Boys, and we know that we are expressing the wish of all those who have known him when we extend to him our sincere wishes for his future happiness and prosperity. 1. O..- C onfwmation A Class of Preparation for boys desiring to offer themselves for Confirmation was held weekly during the Summer Term by the Rev. S. Ryall, Rector of St. Luke's Church and the following boys were duly confirmed on the evening of Sunday, june 18, by the Right Reverend Bishop Lloyd: Bonar, Dalgas, Home and Inverarity. There was a full congregation present and the beautiful service and ceremony made a deep impression on all present. Bishop Lloyd, ,in his sermon before the ceremony, and in his ad' dress afterward to those who had been conhrmed, delivered a message of instruction, help and guidance, which must live in the memory of all who heard him. ' .i.Ol. HEALTH We are glad to record the maintainance of the high standard of health which has now so happily become almost traditional in the School. There has been a complete absence of any form of serious illness, and while we regret the incidence of a certain degree of accident of gravity, such as broken bones, incurred mainly at football, yet these have been no more than in past years and in all cases, we are glad to record, injury has responded to treatment with satisfactory results. We congratulate the School Physician, Doctor Allan Fraser, and the Matron, Miss E. W. Bowden, on the attainment of this highly satisfactory result in their particular sphere, perhaps the most important part of School life, the more so because we know that it has been achieved by close and devoted care and attention to the boys and a thorough understanding of the work to hand. .Toi The Radio Class was well maintained throughout the year, the gathering being held each Saturday evening in the Laboratories. Un' der the able and experienced direction of Mr. Gibson a full class attended voluntarily throughout and were closely interested in the work. As a result not only did these boys gain much theoretical knowledge of the subject, but they finished with material evidence of their practical work in the form of completed sets which were taken home by many of them and, we hope, contributed to the pleasure of their home circles. 8 S

G. McMullen, VicefCaptain, J. D. Menzies. The fact that none of the previous year's backs had returned indicated a certain weakness in that division, but it was felt that a fairly useful scrum could be developed as McMulleii, Kerfooti and Pollock, all Old Colours, were available. Cnce again thc School entered the first team in the Intermediate League. A weight limit of 160 lbs. was placed on all teams other than school teams and although the general standard of play was not so high as last year, yet the matches were very even and well conf tested. The School finished third at the end of the first half and tied for first place with the Wanderers for second half honours. One game was played to decide the second half leadership, and this end' ing in a scoreless draw, the School gave up all claim to the champion' ship because of the rapid approach of examinations. In addition to the Intermediate League fixtures, games were play-4 ed with Brentwood College, Shawnigan Lake School and Victoria High School. Details of these games may be found in these pages. The lst XV enjoyed an exceptionally full season playing nine' teen games in all, ten of which were won, eight lost, and one drawn. The loss of Pollock at Christmas and injuries to Poyntz and Kerf footi were most unfortunate and serious handicaps, but the standard of football was definitely lower than that of previous years. The backs, apart from Creen who was good, and Squire who was fair, were very weak in defence. In attack although Rowe was always most vigorous and Creen and Philipsen had their days, the team were never really together. The forwards for whom McMullen was al' ways good and at times brilliant, were far too slow for the opposi' 10
