SCHOOL v. H.M.C.S. NADEN A very weak side from Naden were no match for the School, who won by seven wickets. Challoner took 5 for 15 and Huntley I 3 for ll. The School indulged in some light-hearted bat- ting in making 115. H.M.C.S. NADEN UNIVERSITY SCHOOL Roberts, l.b.w. Challoner , , 10 Huntley I, ct. Rose, bld. Goddard, bld.

Patient as a batsman and came on considerably. Good in the field both in the air and on the ground. Captained the side with judgment and enthusiasm. BELL fVice-Captainj-As a hitter he seldom came off as his defence was non-existent. Erratic with the ball and bowled far too many loose ones. Possessed good hands and did well in the field. SUNDT-lN'ith the bat he possessed a fair defence but did not have a good season, never developing as was anticipated. A poor judge of a run and slow in the field. ROOPER-Far more aggressive with the bat than in the past, and dealt vigorously with loose balls particularly on the leg side. In defence his footwork is weak and he fails to watch the ball carefully. There is room for much improvement in the field. MOFFAT'-Aggressive with the bat and possessed a fair defence. Keen, though rather light-hearted, as a bowler, but he can turn the ball and will take wickets when he develops more control. Excellent in the field and worth his place for this alone. A promising all-rounder. HUNTLEY I-Successful as a bowler, he maintained a good length, turn- ing the ball slightly from the off. Has also shown promise with the bat though rather languid and passive as yet. Safe in the field. CAMPBELL-Though not very successful in matches he nevertheless came on considerably with the bat, being much more confident and aggres- sive than in the past. Useful in the field and always gave of his best. SIMPSON-Very much improved with both bat and ball. A nervous starter, but he is quite aggressive and will make runs when his defence improves. Distinctly promising as a bowler and should be very success- 28

SCHOOL v. UNIVERSITY SCHOOL 'INCOGSI AND OAK BAY C.C. The combined Clubs were unfortunately much too strong and the game was a disappointing one. Challoner took three of the four wickets which fell for 33 runs. and Campbell held a very good catch. 'INCOGS' AND OAK BAY Melly, ct. Campbell bld. Simpson 30 Gauvreau, ct. Bell bld.

SHAWNIGAN LAKE SCHOOL Huntley I 116 for 18h and Challoner Q4 for 223 bowled well and the School made few mistakes in dismissing Shawnigan for 46 runs. The School batting was again feeble, and after Challoner left wickets were simply thrown away until Simpson and Mason came together. These two made a verv fine effort to pull the match out of the fire. Simpson dented the pavilion roof with a magnificent six but, after he had refused two half-vollevs and Mason a full pitch, the latter was bowled and Shawnigan won by one run.

ful next year. His catching and his ground fielding are weak but could be brought up to standard by regular practice. FOX-Keen, and will make runs when his defence improves. With the ball he has promise and a more serious attitude towards this phase of thc game would do wonders. Excellent in the field both on the ground and in the air. MASON-His hands are not good enough, and he lacks the agility to keep wicket well, but he was keen and developed into a fairly efficient stopper. BARKER I-He has ability in all departments of the game. A more vital interest could make him a valuable member of the side. R. W. SOCCER During the season a number of games was played with Glen- lyon and St. Michael's. The result was one victory and one defeat with each school. At the beginning of the season the team was strong on the defence but woefully weak in attack. As the season wore on, however, this was largely rectified and, after losing to both schools, we managed to get our revenge by defeating both of them. We lost a good Captain in McLaughlin at Christmas, but his place was ably taken by Jaffray. who captained the side for the rest of the season. This year we fielded a bantam,' team which gave a good account of itself by defeating Glenlyon Bantams 1-0. This team was captained by Wenman. The most keenly contested game of the season was the Inter- House match. Both sides went all out to win, but the game resulted in a draw, there being no score. Boas II and Cabeldu deserve mention, the former for his good work in goal, and the latter for scoring five goals in one game. L. C. S. TENNIS The Tennis Courts were as popular as ever this year. The Finals were played on June 19th. The Singles were won by Bran- son, who defeated Campbell 8-6. 6-0, thereby establishing a new record in the School by winning the Championship four years in succession. There was much keener competition among the Juniors this year and a higher standard of play was exhibited. Fox won the Junior Championship by defeating Barker II 6-2, 6-3 and was awarded the Queale Cup. Branson was awarded the Barnacle Cup and Campbell his Tennis Colours. L. C. S. 29
