V. Harvey. It is hardly necessary to add that this will be permanently used for the future. How quickly the years go by! And how each year seems to bring its own particular changes and problems! Qnce again we think of those who will be leaving us-the boys who have finished their school days and are now going out into the worldfto the Universities, the Navy, the Army, or the Air Force. ln these days of crisis, how regretable these changes seem to us, and yet how confident and proud we are that our boys can take their place so ably in this time of national need! We have added new names to the list of our Qld Boys who have volunteered in the Services. We regret it is so incomplete, but we shall add to it as we get news of others. This year, it is gratifying to be able to say that all our school activities have been maintained as usual, nor has our enrolment suffered. The boys who came to us from English schools last Sepf tember are now an integral part of the School in every way. We take this opportunity of telling the Old Boys wherever they are that they are ever in our minds. We wish them the best of luck and pray for their safe return. We do not know what the future may hold for any of us, but it should inspire those who are serving to know that the Old School will continue to instil that spirit of loyalty and service which has marked University School boys for the last thirtyffive years. G. H. S. 5 SCHOOL NOTES The following Masters have joined the Staff since last year: Mr. Burtt, Mr. Height, Mr. Robinson, Mr. Fox, and Mr. Cropper. Mr. Burtt left us at Christmas, and Mr. Robinson left us suddenly on February 8, being called to the Royal Canadian Air Force. These other gentlemen are still with us, and we accord them a very hearty welcome .We were sorry to lose Mr. Robinson who was so inter' ested in our Football, but we wish him the best of luck in his new sphere of activity. Mr. Robertson, Calgary, has presented an Annual Tennis Cup for competition amongst the juniors. Our sincere thanks are due Mr. Robertson. Our best thanks are again due to Mr. Beaumont for his kind' ness in taking the boys on yacht trips: and to Mr. XV. S. Cupples, Mrs. R. F. Dalziel, Mr. E. Smith, Mr. F. Slocobe, and Mrs. Griffin, for their unfailing interest in the matter of transportation of the juniors for Football and Cricket matches. A portion of Sunday afternoon is now devoted to walks in the country. This innovation is greatly appreciated by -L- Sooner! We hope that the School building is feeling as refreshed as it looks! The painters have been very busy, in fact, are still busy. The blackout on May 22 did not place any undue strain on the School. Most of us were sublimely oblivious of the fact that anything out of the ordinary was being enacted! A few of those of the more curious and wakeful disposition were amazed by the efhciency of the parachute flares that lit up districts in every detail, and by their light conjured up visions of Coventry in Victoria. Sickness of various intensity has shown itself at odd intervals during the year. Isolated cases of rubella fwhich involved gargling parades, and latterly a touch of chickenfpox that created a war of nerves at Exam time, have all been endured and most eiliciently dealt with by the Matron and Dr. Bigelow. Congratulations to Cupples I, Dalziel III, and Dalziel IV, the Senior. Intermediate, and Junior Sports Champions for this year. Inadvertently, the names of A. P. Black, E. J. Laffin, and G. D., Corry were omitted from the list of lunior Matriculants as published in the newspapers. We are sure the corrected results were in the nature of good news to the boys concerned. 6 NVe are grateful to those Old Boys who were with us on Sports Day to help with the sports. The following acted as judges and timefkeepers: V. Ridgeway, F. G. Skillings, H. Harman, W. J. Peers, and H. NV. Walker. Congratulations to Batten, Thomson and MacBean, who have distinguished themselves at U. B. C. We shall look forward to seeing them again and hearing of their doings. Much anxiety has been felt for the health of Mr. Howden, who has been critically ill for some time past. We extend to him our sincere wishes for a speedy recovery, and trust that he will be back with us before long. In conjunction with St. Margaret's School, a dramatization of Michael was successfully produced on April 25, at St. Mar- garet's. Much latent ability was brought to life. The difficult role of Michael was entrusted to Vernon, who proved himself capable of filling the part with confidence and effectiveness. In the comedy Five Birds in a Cage, Braide, Kitson, and Collett distinguished themselves. The remaining members of the cast, Bailey, Cockeram and Morgan gave very effective support, as did also the girls of St. Margaret's. Founders' Day was kept as usual on Oct. 7th, The Head- master addressed the boys after Prayers and gave an outline history of the School and its founders. The boys then gave three rousing cheers for the Headmaster and the Old School. Armistice Day was remembered according to custom. School proceeded as usual until 10:45, after which the boys and masters assembled in the front hall. The Headmaster opened the proceedings with prayers, after which he briefly addressed the boys on the signif ficance of Armistice. He pointed out that in the present conflict the Old Boys were again in the forefront and he was confident that the present boys, if and when their time came, would fully maintain the school tradition of loyalty and service. He then read the roll of those who gave their lives in the last war. Following this the cus' tomary two minutes silence was observed, which ended the formal prof ceedings. As we go to press, we hear that Cupples I, Vernon and Young have been successful in the recent Royal Canadian Naval examinaf tions-Congratulations. I G .Anderson I. W. Braide A. G. Beech I.

Moilliet SPEECH DAY A Speech Day was held on Saturday, june 21, and was attended by a large gathering of parents and friends. Commodore W. J. R. Beech, R. C. N., an old boy of the School, addressed himself par' ticularly to those boys who might not be returning. He reminded them that they were going out into the world where they would have to rely upon themselves and put into practice those things and principles which they had been taught at school. He thought that the one word which summarized those principles was loyalty - loyalty to one's God, to one's country and to one's principles of uprightness. He thought, moreover, that in this principle of loyalty lay half the secret of success. For, if a man will stick to his guns, he cannot go far wrong. Commodore Beech concluded his speech by wishing the boys a happy holiday and success in the careers upon which they were about to embark. The proceedings opened with Prayers and Scripture Reading, after which the Headmaster, in the Sith Annual Report, said that the usual activities at University School had been maintained unimf paired. Twelve boys had matriculated last June, two had passed the Senior Matriculation, one had gained entrance to the Royal Military College, and one had passed second in Canada into the Royal Canadian Navy. Four boys had written the Naval Examinaf tions this year. He looked forward to a good academic year in the future. He thanked the Masters and the Staff generally and the boys for the measure of cofoperation, during the school year just closing .Mr. P. E. Vxfinslow, Chairman of the Board of Governors, who was also on the platform with the Headmaster, thanked Com' modore Beech for his address. After the singing of the School Song and National Anthem, tea was served in the Diningfroom to the various guests. 8 The Academic Prizes were presented as follows: Form 6: 1,C. L. Usher: 2, A. P.

Eleven boys sat for the Examinations, and of these ten secured complete passes. A. M. Cupples headed the list of junior Matriculant Candidates. The results were as follows: SENIOR MATRICULATION: I. D. Taylor F. P. Vvlinslow JUNIOR MATRICULATION: A. M. Cupples D. P. Macbean M. A. Vernon R. A. Creery W. R. Batten Full Passesl M. G. Thompson I. B. Young H. A. North A. Moilliet I. E. Boak In addition to the successes of the Matriculation list, R. A. Creery passed second in Canada the entrance Examination to the Royal Canadian Navy. This was a most creditable achievement, for Creery was under the required age, and had to wait until January before he could be accepted into the Royal Naval College at Dart' mouth where he is at present. F. P. Winsloxxf secured Entrance to the Royal Military College, Kingston, where he has distinguished himself during the past year not only academically, but also athletically. 9 fDl1ituary QI. LHR.

Authority-The Shell Form. Don'ts for New Boys Don't offer to treat the whole School when you get a dollar from home-it's too risky. Don't boast of the number of Indians you have slain unless you can produce all the corpses. Don't-if totally ignorant of Cricket-make sneering remarks about the slowness of the game. Wait until you have fielded for a couple of good batsmen, when they're in the humour. Don't believe without hesitation everything your school fel- lows tell you-it is just possible they may be pulling your leg, at the same time, if they say that the Head wants you in his Cflice, you had not better take any chances.

LETTER FROM ENGLAND DESCRIBES AIR ATTACK An interesting account of warftirne life in England is conf tained in the following letter: This is a postscript to my letter of the other day-you may get both together. It will interest you to know that when I went to post it, Jerry nearly got me with a bomb! I needed stamps and so went out to the post oihce, about threefquarters of a mile away. This was about noon, a vile morning, with very low clouds and white fog, visibility only 100 yards. I-Ialffway up the hill, without warning, no 'Alert', there came a heavy explosion not far away. I stopped: Bomb or gunfire? In quick succession there came others, getting nearer. In the fog I could see nothing. Near me two roadfmen painting white lines jumped into the ditch and lay down, shouting at me to do the same. Three small girls were coming down the road quite unconcernedly, and I felt reluctant to dive in the ditch in front of them. Besides it was wet and muddy. Then came two tremendous crashes on the hillside about 500 yards away, and I saw through the fog a flash and then black 11 smoke. I remember thinking 'the next will be on top of me and that will be the end'. One more came that I thought was just the other side of the hedge, but I found later the crater was behind a house a good SOO yards away. I felt as if someone had hit me with a feather bed. I can recall no feeling of terror or even apprehension-just a sort of tenseness as I stood waiting for the next. Then I heard jerry right above me, flying low, but unseen in the fog. He dropped no more and the drone faded away. The roadfmen got out of the ditch, laughed and joked a bit, and went on with their work. Those three girls were still going down the road-I don't think the little devils were even running. Cars came by and everything seemed pzrfectly normal. The whole thing took not more than thirty seconds. It was like a page from H. G. Wells. I noticed that my pipe was still alight, and was childishly pleased thereby. Up by the shops there seemed no excitement, a few people in groups talking but shopping going on just as usual. - When I had posted your letter I returned by another road near where the first bombs had fallen. Outside one house were police cars, A. R. P. men, and an ambulance with 'United States of America' on it. Two old ladies and a girl were being taken to hospital, cut by flying glass. I heard later that they were seriously but not dangerously hurt. About a dozen houses lost windows and roofs, but houses are few and scattered just about here. This is the first time we have been bombed in daylight in Amersham, although we have had several night bombings. It has made me feel more reconciled to being here. DRAMATICS For the first time since 1913, Dramatics have, this year, been a part of our School life. Cn April 25, the School, in conjunction with St. Margaret's, put on two plays on the St. Margaret's stage. Four boys, Vernon, Bailey, Morgaii and Cockeram, had parts in the more serious play, Michaelg while Kitson, Collet i and Braide were in the second, a comedy, Five Birds in a Cage. While dis' tinctions are invidious, a word of praise must be given to Vernon for his interpretation of the difhcult part of the Angel, and to Kitson, a very realistic bricklayer with a true Cockney accent. The plays were in the nature of an experiment, being the outcome of suggestions from Major Bullock Webster, Director of the Dramatics Department of the Department of Education. The Boys were under the tutelage of Mr. Howden, who was noises off during the Plays, but the untiring efforts and skillful direction of Mrs. Turpin, of St. Margaret's, were what made the venture so thoroughly successful. 12 I ' ' ' K Y 'MJ,'.. I QEU K N ,,,.?1.Q THE KER CUP This year for the first time in history the Cup was awarded jointly to Alexander Moncrieff Cupples and Maurice Arthur Vernon. All the Masters agreed that both boys were of Ker Cup calibre and equal merit. Both boys came to the School in September 1936. Both have enviable records for scholarship, character, athletics, and leadership. They matriculated with high marks in June 1940, and this year they have taken their Senior Matriculatiozi as well as the Entrance Examinations for the R. C. N. Their work as prefects in the School has been of the best, and their influence in the School during an 13 unusually trying year, has contributed in no small way to the effective and smooth running. We wish them luck and we shall follow their achievements in the future with pride and interest. TENNIS The competitions this year have brought to light some promis- ing tennis material in the school. The juniors, especially, have made considerable progress in the game, this being due chiefly to their enthusiasm-they have been practising at every opportunity. Al- though vfe can boast of no stars, we do claim a high average level of proficiency. This year, for the first time, the Robertson Cup was offered for the winner of the singles elimination series, open to boys under fifteen. The two places on the finals were well contested for, and finally captured by Robertson II and Carle I. In the final game of the series played before the school, Carle I defeated Robertson II to take the cup. Robertson II exhibited a superior style, and might have won with a little more care. Carle I showed himself to be a more careful player, though impeded by certain defects of style. In particular he lacks a strong and easy service. The finalists in the open singles were Duke and Leslie, the latter being our perennial champion. Leslie successfully defended his title this year, as was to be expected. Nevertheless, Duke gave him strong opposition all the way. Dukes style is smooth and in- teresting to watch. By employing an underhand back-hook drive, he is able to return a fast ball with a high degree of certainty. Leslie has a service and return drive which is formidable. He has the addi- tional advantage of height. In the open doubles, Duke and Mackay competed with Cup- ples I and Young in the finals. The game was won after a hard fight, by Duke and Mackay. Since a doubles game offers more scope for strategy, this game was the most interesting from the spectators point of view. The play was always competent and in some instances brilliant. Real strategy was often employed, but was not always consistent. Service was powerful, but too often inaccurate. In both service and play, Mackay showed himself the most competent player in the doubles. Colours were awarded to Leslie. RESULTS: JUNIORS - ROBERTSON CUP Carle I beat Robertson II, 7-5, 3-6, 6-1. OPEN SINGLES - BARNACLE CUP Leslie beat Duke, 7-5, 6-1. OPEN DOUBLES Duke and Mackay beat Cupples and Young 6-3, 6-2. 14 -,ff , .11 5, X 1!,,- . Y i Q1 GSW lx lx, '.

K 4 CRICKET 1941 The Annual Cricket Meeting was held in April. and presided over by the Headmaster. J. B. Young was elected Captain, and A. M. Cupples, VicefCaptain. We have had fewer matches this year on account of the unfavourable weather. Of the six matches played by the Ist XI, two were won and four lost. In addition to the above, fixtures were arranged with the Royal Canadian Navy, and the Royal CRICKET XI . I fv ? F ' I WV J 'v I ' . ' tw-.. ,I li ' I isr' A l a: e fg e f . s' A ., I 3?

Vfilliams QReading from left to right, I5 Canadian Air Force, and a return match against Victoria. Unforf tunately, all these games, for one reason or another had to be can' celled. The batting of the side generally was much better than last year. Young and Twiss were the only outstanding batters. Mercer proved himself a good wicketfkeeper, while Young, Cupples, and Williams bowled with considerable success. The fielding was inf variably good and at times excellent. Colours vqere awarded this year to Twiss, Gibbs, Mercer and Cupples. The team was as follows: J. B. Young QCaptainJ, A. M. Cupples QVicefCaptainJ, bl. B. Mercer, R. S. Williams. W. D. Mackay, I. A. Twiss, J. A. Gibbs, A. Moiiiia, H. J. Wade. D. M. Gillies, and G. D. Corry This year we had six teams for the Clayton Cup. Williams' team won the Cup. The bat given every year by the University School incogs to the best cricketer in the school was won by Young whose keenness and enthusiasm did so much to make him such an effective Captain of the lst XI. Twiss won the prize bat given by the School to any member of the first team who makes S0 runs at the first team game. The 2nd XI won their only outside match against Shawnigan Lake 'lnd XI, 92f64. The junior Team played four matches, one against Qualieum Beach School, one against Glenlyon. and two against Fairbridge Farm School, all of which were won. Robertson II made a very good Captain. The bowling of Collett II and Anderson, and the batting of Braide and Smith II were the outstanding features. SCHOOL vs. VICTORI.k C. C. The season opened on May 3rd with a match against Victoria. The school made a very poor start, 3 wickets falling for 3 runs, a disaster for which Kennedy was responsible through very poor run' ning. Williams made a few runs with a very crooked bat, and Gibbs played confidently till he was out in his favourite way- L. B. W. The innings closed for 33. Victoria proceeded to take advantage of some weak bowling, and made 80 runs, of which Hob' son made 50. UNIVERSITY SCHOOL Young ......... .............................

The School gave a very moderate display in the first innings against very poor bowling. The batting, except that of Young, flattered the bowlers beyond measure. Forrest, who bowled chiefly longfhops for Shawnigan, took seven wickets for 15. However, the display given by Shawnigan was even worse, although they had to face much better bowling. Except for a few fullfpitches which the batsmen considerately missed, Wil' liams bowled very well and had 6 for 15. Robertson, playing for the First, for the first time, bowled steadily. Young was completely off length. In the second innings, Twiss dominated the scene and batted really well for 28. Williams bowled well at his second attempt and Robertson met with deserved success. Corry's catching was a feature of the game. The School fielding was of a high order. UNIVERSITY SCHOOL . b . Twiss ........ ........ Young ........... - ..... XVilliams ............

Good length bowling prevented our batsmen from making much headway and three were dismissed for 10 runs. Willianms and Moilliet I, however, put in some vigorous hitting and between them increased the score to 5 0. The remaining wickets fell quickly and all were out with the total at 52. Young and Williams opened the bowling for the School and dispatched four of their leading batsmen for 10. A determined stand by Gillespie partnered by Sunderland carried the score to 70. The School fielding was excellent, but an earlier change in bowlers might have proved beneficial. 20 Young .,..,...... Gillies ...,A.A...w Mercer Williams .. Cupples ...,A...

Won 61f12. The School batted first and found little difficulty in the bowling. Kennedy batted well for 22 but his running between the wickets was atrocious. Robertson II declared the innings closed for 61 with 4 wickets down. Qualicum Beach School found the School bowling much too good for them and were all out for 12 runs. Robertson had 5 for 5, and Collett II, 5 for 7. UNIVERSITY JUNIORS vs. GLENLYON: Played at University School on May 7th, Won 35 f14. Collett II and Robertson II again ran through the opposition and Glenlyon was out for 14. Collett had 5 for IO, and Robertson, 4 for 3. The School batting was tame in the extreme and against very poor bowling only collected 35 runs. The running was again very poor. Collett II had a hat trick and caught a real beauty in the slips. UNIX'ERSITY JUNIORS vs. F.-XIRBRIDGE FARM ScHooL: Played at University School on May 10th. Won 5043. Col' lett, Robertson and Anderson got the Fairbridge boys out twice, for 13 and 14 .Anderson took four wickets with successive balls in the first innings and Robertson did the same in the second.

Played at Fairbridge Farm School. Won 54f17. The School gave a fair display against rather weak bowling. Smith II was a high scorer, making 15 runs. Fairbridge put up quite a struggle, had some good fielding, but were too inexperienced to stand up against the bowling of Anderson and Collett II. Tipler and Stoker and Low made all the runs for Fairbridge. ,1-il..i.ili- UNIVERSITY SCHOOL INCOGS The Annual Meeting of the Incogs was held at the School on March 6th, As was to be expected there was only a small attend' ance. It was decided to function as a club, and to keep intact as far as possible. The Headmaster was again elected President and SecretaryfTreasurer. Mr. Howden was named as Captain for such occasional matches as might be arranged from time to time. The only match arranged to date was played on May 24.

The weather was perfect except for the wind which made it a little unpleasant. The usual large crowd of parents and friends of the school attended. As might be expected, there were very few Old Boys present. Notwithstanding, the usual relay race took place and was won by the school only by a narrow margin. The races were keenly contested. No new records were made. The Senior Championship and Wilson Miniature were won by Cupples Ig the Intermediate Championship by Dalziel III: and the junior Championship by Dalziel IV. 23 In the unavoidable absence of his Honour, the Lieutenant Gov' ernor, the prizes were presented by Mr. F. E. Winslow, Chairman of the Board of Governors. In his address to the boys and guests, Mr. Winslow stressed the necessity of learning habits of goodfsportsf manship. The Headmaster welcomed the guests, and thanked Mr. Winslow for his general interest in the school. He also thanked the oflicials who had done so much to make the day such a success. v- v-A IJ O CD U2 C ,.. F?

CROSS COUNTRY RUN The run for the Cup presented by the Old Boys was held on March 17th. The weather was fine and cool and the ground very dry. Owing to the building of the Camp and Wireless Station at Gordon Head, the course had had to be changed from that of former years and was a little shorter. Seventyfseven boys started: those not running acted as markers. The race was won by Mercer, for the second time, in 27 min. 11 sec. Young was second. Robertson ii won the Robertson Challenge Cup for the first Junior. Owing to the war, very few Old Boys were present to see the race, but C. C. I.. Bernard oiiicially represented the O. B.

Vernon The Corps, with the Headmaster as instructor, assisted by Mr. Robinson in the Christmas Term and Mr. Cropper in the Easter Term, has been through a difficult and trying time during the past year. Changes in requirements and routine, etc., and the unusually early date of the Annual Inspection all contributed to these difficulties and it was with a great sense of relief and satisfaction that the period of training came to an end so successfully .This success was 25 due to the grit and determination of every member of the Corps, which ultimately proved itself efficient in Company, Platoon and Section Drill. Sergeant Poeock of the R. G. A. helped towards this end and we were indeed grateful to have his practical advice on the finer points of Ceremonial Drillg Since every High School in Canada now undergoes this Cadet Training, considerably greater competition is present and for this reason a greater eifort had to be made to uphold the fine traditions of the School. The Cadet Officers and N. C. Cfs carried out their duties most conscientiously and proved themselves worthy of their commands. The Annual Inspection by Major Critchley took place on April 18th when the Summer Term was but three days old. The Corps paraded 82 all ranks. No band was available and the General Salute had to be executed without rifles. The former deficiency placed a further burden on every member, but, in spite of this, and the fact that the Parade Ground was grass, particular praise was accorded the Company in its marching ability. Company, Platoon and Sectional movements were carried out, the First Aid and Signalling classes were examined, and a display of Physical Drill and Gymnastics, by the Gym VIII, concluded the Activities. Addressing the School, Major Critchley complimented the Corps on its smart appearance, its steadiness.in the ranks, its sound knowledge of the various movements and the confident words of command given by those in positions of responsibility. He reminded all of the seriousness of the times and inferred that this early training was not being indulged in from a purely militaristic point of view, but also as an aid in making healthy citizens of Canada. Rousing cheers brought the proceedings to a close after which tea was served to the numerous parents and friends who witnessed the Inspection. 69' XFN - 'S i 1 ' .

The main events were the usual School Gym Competition, and at the Cadet Inspection. The Competition was held on March Zoth, at 4 p. m. There were 14 boys competing for the .School Championship. Each com' petitor had two compulsory and one voluntary exercise on the box horse and spring board, and fixed parallel bars: and one compulsory and two voluntary exercises on the high bar. Gibbs won the Championship and Croft Challenge Cup, and accordingly was the Captain of the Gym Eight this year. His work showed a highdegree of difficulty, and was neatly and well executed. Mr. A. McKinnon of the Y. M. C. A., as usual, kindly and ably acted as judge. We are very grateful to Mr. Locock for his interest in the Gym work and the help given by john Boak, our Gym Captain of last year, who so ably assisted Mr. Locock in the actual instruction of the boys. At the Cadet Inspection twelve boys gave a fine gym display to round off the Inspection. Gne of the outstanding features of this display was the fine work of Cave, one of our juniors, who showed promising ability. Colours for having been on the Gym Eight for two years were awarded to Duke.

RUGBY FOOTBALL 1940-1941 At the beginning of the season it was quite obvious that at least seven new members would be required to make up the team for the coming season. 1 Of the eleven matches played by the lst XV we won 7, drew 1 and lost 3. In a general way our play during the season was not brilliant as the side was somewhat light and young. However, much valuable experience was gained through the season. For the most part the team found itself considerably outfweighed in the opposing teams. FOOTBALL XV Pike, Albert, Moilliet I, Leslie, Cockeram. Blyth, Mackay.

FIRST FIFTEEN MATCHES SCHOOL vs. VICTORI.-X COLLEGE The season opened on October 12, their opposing team being Victoria College, on Victoria High School grounds. During the first part of the game the School was on the defensive, but good tackling prevented the College from crossing the line. The ball became very slippery as the field was quite wet, and consequently the game developed into a forward tussle between the two teams. The first half was scoreless, but good forward work and good tackling by Corry, Cupples and Duke pulled the School out of some trouble. Shortly after the start of the second half, Williams kicked well to touch on the College 'lOfyd. line. From a lflfyd. scrum, Mercer came within inches of scoring. The College then pushed the School to the Zifyd. line from where the forwards scored on a dribble. Duke by following up well, fell on the hall for this try. The kick for goal was blocked. The School then tried several threefquarter runs, but many fumbles occurred due chiefly to a slippery ball. About halffway through the second half, College pressed hard, but good defensive work on the part of Albert and Mackay relieved the pressure. Mercer saved a try by falling on the ball in his own end zone. The School then pushed the College to their Bifyd. line. From here a beautiful threefquarter run followed with the wing man Dalziel scoring near the flag. The attempt of Williams to convert from a diihcult angle failed. Corry, Duke, Williams, Cupples, Mercer and Cockeram played well for the School, Corry's tackling being particularly effective. The final score was University School 6, Victoria College O. SCHOOL vs. VICTORI.-X COLLEGE The return match was played at the School, and won by the home side, on Saturday, October 19. The College forwards showed a great improvement Over their first game. They formed well in the scrums, and were effective in the line outs. 30 The School was forced into their own territory very often, but managed to hold the College out during the first half. The threefquarters scored a very clever try with all of them handling the ball. Leslie scored in the corner. The attempt to conf vert from a difficult angle failed. College then pressed hard and were prevented from scoring by good forward work against heavier opponents. Corry and Gibbs tackled well here. Willizims, Wade and Gibbs did some good kicking in this half. Near the end of the first half, Willianis broke through the College three'quarters, who, for some reason failed to tackle him. Dalziel followed him up well and with a fine burst of speed scored near the corner. This ended the scoring in the first half. In the second half the College forwards pushed the School into their own territory on many occasions. Two tries were scored by College because the School forwards and backs did not fall on the ball when College broke away on a dribble. The backs did not kick into touch when on the defensive, and this also paved the way for the College tries. Soon after' this, College almost scored again, but Duke fell on the ball in his end zone. The School scored the .winning try about two minutes from the end of the game on another clever threefquarter run. Dalziel scored his second try of the game when all the threefquarters handled well while getting the ball out. The forwards played well against heavier opponents, but were very weak in the line outs. Patterson, Blyth, Moilliet, Albert, Gillespie and Corry played execllently on the attack, but were weak on the defensive. The final score was University School 9, Victoria College 6. SCHOOL vs. CANADIAN SCOTTISH ZND BATTALION On November 6, the School played the Canadian Scottish 2nd Battalion at the School. At the start of the game the Scottish forwards carried the ball near our line. Mercer then saved a try by holding a Scottish man from grounding the ball in our goal area. Gibbs and Leslie made a good run to the Scottish line. Dalziel II carried the ball over the Scottish line, but could not ground it. The Scottish then scored on a threefquarter run and smart backingfup. The kick failed. The Scottish scored again on a break through of the forwards. The kick again failed. Near the end of the half the Scots pushed the School forwards over following a Sfyd. scrum. Half time score was Scottish 9, School O. In the second half the School improved considerably. Leslie scored following a smart threefquarter play. The kick from a difficult angle failed. Near the end of the game, Cupples scored on the smartest threefquarter play of the day. The kick failed. The finaluscore was Scuttish 9, University School 6. 31 SCHOOL vs. BRENTWOOD COLLEGE Gn Saturday, November 16, the School played Brentwood College at Brentwood. In the early part of the game the Brentwood wing three' quarter scored on a smart backfield play. lan Gillespie converted from a diflicult angle. Shortly after this Brentwood scored from a lifyd. scrum. Gillespie failed to convert from a difficult angle. This score might have been prevented by the School team. just before halfftime lan Gillespie scored a penalty kick from a difficult angle. The half ended with the score 11fO for Brentwood. ln the second half the University School showed a marked improvement in their play. Twice the School came very close to scoring, but close marking by Brentwood held them out. University School's tackling in this half was excellent and Brentwood consequently fumblcd many opportunities of adding to the score. A Gibbs' tackling was very effective in this half. He saved at least two certain tries by hard tackling. Gibbs, Cupples, Williams, Mercer, Moilliet, Leslie and Corry played well. Gupples' tackling was also very effective. The final score was Brentwood 11, University School O. SCHOOL vs. ROYAL CANADIAN AIR FORCE The School played the Air Force on November 30 on our grounds. This game was played in the absence of Gibbs, Gorry, Duke, and Dalziel II. It was ragged and the School threw away many opportunities of scoring. The halfftime score was 13fO for the School. Gupples scored two tries, one following a brilliant run of SO yds. Williams converted both scores. Twiss scored the other try for the School. In the second half the Air Force made their only score when one of their forwards broke through from the Zifyd. line. There was no further scoring in this game. The SchOol's tries were marked very closely and should have varied their plays more. The final score was 136 for the School. SCHOOL vs. BRENTXVOOD COLLEGE The return match between the University School and Brent' wood rugger teams was played on the School grounds, on Saturday, December Srd. University School opened the scoring when Mackay raced over for a well earned try. The attempt to convert failed. 32 Ian Gillespie tied the score on a beautiful kick from 40 yds. out. Angus added another score on a fast threefquarter movement. Gillespie converted again. The halfftime score was Brentwood 8, University School 3. At the sart of the second half, Duke scored a penalty kick to make the score 8f6. I. Gillespie CBrentwoodj then scored after a 4Ofyd. run, and the try was again converted . The Schools tackling on this play was very weak. Brentwoods final score came when Holms went over from Z1 ifyd. scrum . Near the end of the game Willianis broke through the Brent' wood threefquarters. Duke followed up well and played a short kick over Brentwood's heads. Cupples fell on the hall to give the School a try. The kick failed. The final score was a victory for the visitors. Brentwood Col' lege 16, University School 9. . SCHOOL vs. SH.uvN1c.ax LAKE Scnoot This annual match of the year was played on the University School grounds. Great credit is due to the Shawnigan Lake team for the spirit and pluck which they displayed against a more ex' perienced team. The game was played on December 7. During the first half play was fairly slow, the threefquarters scoring only once when Gupples I scored a good try after catching a cross kick. Our forwards were about even with Shawnigan in the first half, but were far too slow in following up the ball. Albert got the ball back from the line outs very consistently, but Shawnigan, who were marking very closely stopped many three' quarter runs. A wet ball also caused many jumbles in our threef quarter line. Early in the second half, Cupples II scored by blocking a kick and falling on it as it fell over the Shawnigan line. The best score of the day came when Dalziel II scored folf lowing a smart threefquarter run. All attempts to convert failed as the ball was heavy and greasy. Gupples II, Albert, Corry played well in this match. Williams tried drop kicks too often, especially as the threefquarters were often waiting for the ball. The final score was School 9. Shawnigan Lake O. ScHooL vs. GAK BAY HIGH SCHOOL On Monday, Jan. 27, the University School played the Oak Bay High School on the University School grounds. The School was far too strong for their inexperienced oppof nents. The final score was 4lfO in our favor. The following boys scored for the School: Williams, Duke, Vernon, Gillies, Dalziel II, Gibbs, Pike, Mei'cer, and Patterson. Cupples was not playing in this game or the score might have been even greater. Duke converted well . SCHOOL vs. ROY.-XL Caxaoux AIR FORCE On Saturday, February 1, fthe School played another match with the Air Force. This was the most ragged match of the year, but the School managed to win by 11f9. The inside threefquarters were not passing well, consequently many scoring chances were muffed. A wet ball and rainy weather was possibly the cause of some of the ragged play, but the School team were playing as individuals, not as a team. Williams scored on a free kick early in the game. Dalziel H scored the second try and Williams converted from a difficult angle. Cockeram scored the last try by following up well to make the score 11fO. ' The Air Force scored 9 points in the second half. The School played very poorly as a team in this part of the game, although the Air Force was frequently breaking the rules from inexperience in the game. The final score was School 11. Air Force 9. ' SCHOOL vs. VICTORI.k COLLEGE On Saturday, February 8, the University School played its third match against Victoria College. This game ended in an eightfall tie. The School opened the scoring when Duke fell on the ball after following up a kicked ball very brilliantly. Duke converted his own try. The second School try came when Williams broke through the College line following a 3Ofyd. scrum. The attempt to convert failed. College scored two tries in the second half. Their first try came from a threefquarter run and the score was near the flag. The attempt to convert failed. The College scored their second try by following up a kick. The kick was good making the score 8f8. Cn the whole the game was rather ragged. College were fre' quently offfside. There was far too much talking on their part. The College were very hard fighters, and the School made the mistake of tackling too high. , SCHOOL vs. BRENTWOOD COLLEGE The third and final match against Brentwood was played at the School on February 22, the ground being fast and dry and the weather fine. J For the first quarter of the game, play was very level, but ii bad pass back by Willianis led to a Sfyd. scrum, where an infringe- ment gave Brentwood a penalty kick from which they scored. Shortly afterwards Brentwood scored from a loose scrum al' most on the line. The kick at goal added the extra points. Brentwood threefquarters were prominent for the rest of the game and several good runs added two more tries, one of which was converted. The School team was outfweighed. The threefquarters failed over and over again to draw their man before passing and the for' wards were often late in getting to the ball. Corry played an excellent game and Gibbs vvas by far the best of the threefquarters. The final score was 17fO. CHARACTERS OF FIRST FIFTEEN MERCER fCaptainJ-An excellent scrum half.

A little slow in the loose scrums, but has improved conf siderably. MACKAY-Plays any position well. ls careless about being offfside but is always on the ball.

DALZIEL II+fVv'ing three-quarterl fine burst Of speed. Has good clip tackle, but is a little small in this respect. Very unselfish. but should learn to kick to touch when he sees that further advance is impossible. Keen and very spirited. LESLIE: fFullbackj Excellent tackle. NVaits too long before kicking to touch could stop some forward rushes by getting his kick away. Has a speedy run and is dangerous when attacking. Really a threefquarter, but has unselfishly played fullback. SECOND AND THIRD FIFTEEN MATCHES The Second and Third Teams were quite good sides. On Nov. 16 our Second XV played against Brentwood College. Cur Third XV also played on the same day against the Brentwood Third Team. The final score for the Second Team was: School 18, Brent' wood O. For the Third Team, School 20, Brentwood 3. ' SECOND XV vs. BRENTWOOD A very ragged game which tended towards a good deal of unnecessary rough play at times. The Brentwood fowvards were very heavy, and to blame. Brentwood got possession from most of the scrums, and all the timefouts where the School forwards were very weak, but their three'quarters were very weak, and made little use of their opportunities. Laffin i worked hard throughout the game as also did Knight. Leggatt played a great game and Gillies was good at all times, and sometimes brilliant. Score: University School 18, Brentwood O. THIRD XV vs. BRENTWOOD The School was considerably outfpointed in weight and size, but in all departments of the game was the superior of Brentwood. Dalziel III displayed much courage and dash, and scored four times. Smith II and Smith III both played well, as did Robertson in his last part of the game. Kitson was consistently good among the forwards. Score: University School 20. Brentwood 3. SECOND XV vs. VICTORI.-X HIGH SCHOOL Cn Feb. 13th our Second XV played a team from Victoria High School to a 6f6 draw. Our team was much outweighed but the game was keen and well contested. Mende I and Smith I were the scorers. Gillespie and Cowling were Outstanding players. SECOND XV vs. OAK BAY HIGH SCHOOL This was played on Feb. Qorh and won by Cak Bay 1Of3. The game was ragged, our tackling weak. Twiss and Vernon played well. 36 JUNIUR FOGTBALL XV Wade II, Matthews, Kitson, Cook, Slocombe, Mclllree, McLennan, Smith II Talbot, Collett II, Robertson II 1CaptJ, Smith III. Collett I Anderson V Dalziel IV JUNIOR RUGBY Strengthened by the arrival of new boys, the junior XV had an even more successful season than that of last year. The Team was a really good one, winning all five matches and scoring a total of 101 point to six. The forwards were compact and hardfworking, Kitson being outstanding in the tight and loose scrums. Collett I was most successful at the base of the scrum and fed Robertson un' ceasingly, thus setting afoot many a successful movement of the backs. Robertson was a most satisfactory Captain and a good leader. The two Smiths played in the centre of the line and developed considerable ability, while Dalziel played as well as ever and Collett II filled the other wing position with distinction. Talbot was very sound at fullfback, though a little weak as a kick. The highflights of the season were the match at Fairbridge, where we were most hospitably entertained and the return match here, which was followed up by an interfschool boxing competition of three bouts.

Both the swimming and the diving events were well contested. For some of the races the time was improved over last year, but the diving was only fair. The School Freestyle Championship was won by E. I. Laffin for the third consecutive year, improving slightly on last year's record. Wallis won the open backstroke in 31 115 seconds, while M. M. Duke improved on his last year's time by 25 seconds. Mr. A. McKinnon, swimming instructor of the Victoria Y. M. C.

Congratulations to the Old Boys who, playing as the Incogs Cricket Team, managed to defeat the School on May 24th.

Walker, A. G. Tisdall, and L. C. Creery. On May 24, the Old Boys held their Annual Meetiiig at the School. L. C. Creery was again elected President, and C. Bernard, SecretaryfTreasurer for the forthcoming year. Considering the dif- ficulties, there was a very good attendance, and many topics of interest to all Old Boys were discussed and dealt with. The Head' master was present, and told the Old Boys something of the doings of the School during the past year. Prior to the Meeting, the Old Boys were the Headmastefs guests at dinner, which was attended by some twenty Old Boys. Amongst the many interesting things discussed and arranged at the Old Boys' Meeting was the question of life membership fees in the Association. lt was agreed that this should be fixed at S10 in the hope that many boys, upon leaving school, will become meme bers of the Association immediately they leave. 40 KILLED IN SERVICE OF KING AND COVNTRY N QI.
