SCHOOL NOTES This year we are departing from all previous practice Qof the past forty yearsi in bringing out the Black ana' Red in the Summer Term. The advantages are obvious in that the boys who receive it will have been participants in the events recorded, and, although we must forego such things as examination results, final cricket matches and so on until a later issue, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. The enrolment this year has begun to pick up again and now stands at 123 Boarders and 61 Day Boys. Indications are that the slump which hit us last year is now over and that we are on the way back to a full house. The Barker Library has proved a wonderful asset and its effects will be felt possibly as much by the boys in their first year at University as in their last year at School. We do, however, need more volumes, and it is hoped that the readers of this magazine will do their best to fill the gap. The academic courses are now growing harder and this fact has at last dawned upon the School, with the result that there is a marked increase in the seriousness of application by a large number of boys. Although one cannot forecast results, as the courses are new, it is prob- able that the excellent record of the past two years will be maintained. Acceptances for good Colleges such as Whitman and the University of Pennsylvania have already been received, and by Press time there should be many more. The big success in games this year was the regaining, in athletics, of the Logan Trophy, symbolic of the Independent Schools' Champion- ship, and the defeat of Oak Bay High School, the Vancouver Island High School Champions. In Rugby and Basketball, while we won more matches than we lost the general results were not perhaps as good as we had hoped, but in Tennis the team has lost only one match in three seasons. The big project for this year was to be the rebuilding of the swim- ming pool, but, as so often happens, there have been innumerable frus- trations and delays. However, the plans are now settled and at time of Press we are ready to start with the demolition of the old building. While the solid core of the Faculty remains, there is always some turnover. This year we congratulate Mr. james, who came from the University of Wales four years ago, on the Fellowship which he has been awarded by the University of Oregon, while Mr. Grubb and Mr. Simmonds are returning to their respective Universities to pursue fur- ther academic studies beyond their present Degrees. Harvey House deplores the loss of Mrs. Friel, who is retiring after nine years, devoted service. At Easter the School was host to the Headmasters from Canada's twenty other Independent Schools for Boys, together with representa- tives from the respective Boards of Governors. The President of the University of Victoria, Dr. Malcolm Taylor, was the Cuest of Honour 8
