GYMNASTICS Considering that this year we had no permanent gym instructor, the work done was of very high calibre. 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. L ZS

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.
