E' Z THE RUGBY XV Cottenllothersill,Morgan,Shipley,Harrison,Atkins,McNeil,VVhittOme, Bryn-lones, Morant CY.-Capt.J Perram CCapt.J, Duncan, Bennett Cook Duke dangerous. Brentwood opened the scoring when their pack pushed over and a try was awarded. Shortly after this a Brentwood centre ran through the middle from thirty-five yards, several School tacklers unaccountably missed him, and the try was scored between the posts and goaled. In the second half play was, for the most part, between the two twenty-hves but, controlling the scrums. Brentwood were always dangerous. The School backs were very active in defence, however, Bvrn-jones, XYhittome, Badda and Ben- nett being particularly prominent, and although having almost constant possession, Brentwood were only able to score two tries, both unconverted. The School had played up well, but Brentwood were the better side and fully deserved their vic- tory. The School backs were strengthened by the return of Perram, their captain, reasonably ht for the first time this season, but missed McNeil, still on the injured list. Wlhittome had a good match at scrum half. The forwards were spirited, but not nearly as clever as the opposing pack in obtaining possession. SCHOOL vs. SHAWNIOAN LAKE SCHOOL The game was played at home and won by the School by four tries 112 pointsj to 0. The School opened the scoring shortly after the start when Harrison broke away from a line- 26

SCHOOL vs. BRENTXVOOD COLLEGE This game was nlaved at Brentwood and resulted in a win for the home team by two goals and two tries tlli pointsj to a penalty goal til poiiitsj. . Vvith l'erram, their captain, on the iniured list, and grtat- ly outweighed, the Svliuol were hard pressed from the start. liarly in the game Bennett, the School outside half, was in- iured and though he revnained on the lield until half-time he was a passenger. Brentwood played bustling' football during the tirst half and their hacks were always dangerous. The School tackling, however, was good, and line work by Bryn--lones, llcXeil and Badda saved them on many occasions. l'ersistent attack brought its reward, however, and Brentwood eventually scored a well deserved try which was goaled and they led ii-0 at the interval. Bennett did not return to the game after half-time. and Brentwood sportingly dropped a man to even up. The School forwards had played hard but were no match for the opposing pack who controlled the loose scrums and gave their backs constant possession. Some nice passing was seen in the Brent' wood three quarter line and two tries, the lirst of which was goaled, gave them a lead of 13 points. Then Morant replied for the School when he was successful with a penalty kick thirty yards out. In the closing minutes Brentwood scored an unconverted try and won 115-3. Brentwood had played intelligent and robust football and fully deserved their victory which might have been more de- cisive had the hall been really dry. They were particularly well served at outside half, and all their outsides were dan- gerous men. All the School forwards played nard but were overslwa- dowed by bigger and better men. Bryn--lones, McNeil and Badda were the most noticeable of the School backs who were forced to play a defensive game from the start. SCHOOL vs. BRENTXVOOD COLLEGE The first of the home games against Brentwood resulted in a win for the visitors by a goal and three tries C14 pointsj to fl. ' The School all but opened the scoring in the first live minutes when Badda burst from the loosen in the Brentwood twenty-live only to be brought down on the goal line by the full back. Play was of a very even nature for some time but the Brentwood forwards were superior to the School pack both in the tight and the loose , The backs were fast and better together than the School outsides who were seldom 25

Out in the Shawnigan twenty-five. He was tackled five yards from the goal line but managed to give to Cotter, who scored. The try was not converted. The School forwards played badly in the first half and failed to give the backs much of the ball. XYhat few chances the backs did have were badly used. Ben- nett dropped too many passes, and l'erram alone looked to be cauable of creating or taking advantage of an opening. On one occasion Perram was all but successful when he kicked ahead, beat the opposition to the ball and gathered only to lose his balance and fall. The School led Il-H at half-time and had not given a convincing display against moderate opposition. The second half was played in pouring rain and little con- structive work behind the scrum was possible. The School forwards now took command uf the game and completely dominated the loosen play. Two typical forward tries were scored, one by Harrison and the other by Duncan: both came after long forward ruses in which the whole pack participated. The final try was scored by NYhittome who gathered cleverly and dashed through to score after a short run. The place kick- ing of Morant and Shipley I was bad, though the ball was a difficult one, and no goals were kicked. There was no further score and the School won 12-fl. All the forwards played well in the second half, and it was pleasing to notice fiotter, one of the newer members, very prominent. SCHOOL vs. OAK BAY HIGH SCHOOL A rather ragged game at home resulted in a win for the High School 9-0. Play was very even throughout the first half but neither set Of backs were in any way constructive, and neither line was seriously in danger. There was no score at half-time. .-Xfter the change over the School had the better of the game territorially, but finish was lacking against some effec- tive spoiling-tactics by Oak Bay, and despite good work by Perram, who did his best for his wings the School were un- able to score. On the other hand, the High School turned their chances to advantage and scored three unconverted tries. All three came after long forward rushes-the School defence was pitiful. The School were deservedly beaten. ln general the tack- ling was extremely bad and the backs showed great weakness in dealing with resolute forwards with the ball at their feet. SCHOOL vs. VICTORI.A HIGH SCHOOL This match was played at Victoria High School and re- sulted in a scoreless draw. Throughout the game the School had a distince advant- age, but the backs were totally lacking in finish, and chance 27
