Smith, who were chosen Captain and VicefCaptain respectively , five other members of the 1936 team were availahle. Seven matches were played, three of which were won and four lost. The hatting while not strong, was fairly even and seldom really disappointing, hut the howling was definitely weak and the fielding patchy. Huff was hy no means as effective with the hall as last year while Jeanneret and Thorne, though successful at times, were in no sense hostile howlers and appeared to rely far too much on the hatsmen getting themselves out. Sproule and Thorne were the hright spots in a somewhat apathetic fielding side while Field was once again safe rather than hrilliant hehind the stumps. bleanneret topped the hatting averages scoring 111 runs for an average of nearly sixteen. Smith had an average of nearly fourteen. Thorne had the hest howling figures, his 12 wickets costing 5.17 runs each. ,Ieanneret took 25 wickets for 167 runs for an average 6.68, and Huff 18 for 165 at a cost of 9.17 runs per wicket. Colours for the year were awarded to P. W. hleanneret, W. Sproule and tl. O. Thorne and the full team was as follows: P. W. jeanneret, C. C. Smith, R. bl. Huff, A. W. Field, W. J. Sproule, J. C. Thorne, R. D. Jones, F. H. S. Pott, M. D. A. Darling, A. W. Everett and R. C. Ivlassy.

Special Cup for 220 Yards-Giolma Cup. Gymnasium The Annual Gym Competition was held in the School Gymnas' ium on March 22nd. Field, last year's runner up, won the Championship and the Mrs. Hay Croft's Challenge Cup. He was very closely pressed by Huff and Maureri who were on the Gym VIII last year. Field's neatness and method of approach to the various pieces of apparatus were prominent. Clarke, a Junior, again obtained a place on the team by a very creditable performance. Following an old School custom, we again had the old boys of the School to act as judges. Messrs. E. H. Cabeldu and A. P. Mus' grave were the competent oflicials. They spoke briefly on the high standard of work and also offered a few instructive hints which were much appreciated by the boys. This year the judges decided that the Gym. VIII should be composed of the following: Field fCaptainj, Huff, Maurerfi, jeanneret, Clarke, Hunter, Ireland, Sproule. New colours were presented to Ireland and Sproule, the other six boys having won theirs last year.

bat was presented by Mr. H. Lethaby who year after year is kind enough to bring at least one team to play against the School. Among the Juniors considerable promising material was noted, Young, Slater, Moilliet, Clarke, and Escobar being outstanding. ..O, SCHOCL vs. OLD BCYS The School opened the session against the Old Boys and were badly beaten. Jeanneret batted quite nicely and Sproule showed promise but the rest of the batting was very feeble. The Qld Boys were assisted by two School juniors. OLD BOYS T. O'D.
